fyi I built gdb on the ppcle koji in case you are interested in poking at it: http://ppc-le.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=14767 It would be better to point at the upstream commits - I will look them up. The patch file is not acceptable. It is building now in primary Koji. http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/gdb.git/commit/?id=6e0665a33c841cb72f25624655a40e62747390ed |
Created attachment 894073 [details] gdb-7.7-add-ppc64le.patch ppc64le support for gdb went into upstream version 7.8. But for now, I have a patch and trivial spec changes to enable ppc64le in gdb-7.7. Please incorporate these into rawhide and nvr bump then. If you prefer to conditionally apply the patch for the ppc64le arch only, I am ok with that too. The following spec changes are needed. Change as you prefer. Ill attach the gdb-7.7-add-ppc64le.patch file. diff --git a/gdb.spec b/gdb.spec index 86cfade..5067cd9 100644 --- a/gdb.spec +++ b/gdb.spec @@ -539,6 +539,8 @@ Patch852: gdb-gnat-dwarf-crash-3of3.patch Patch865: gdb-static-tls-1of2.patch Patch866: gdb-static-tls-2of2.patch +Patch999: gdb-7.7-add-ppc64le.patch + %if 0%{!?rhel:1} || 0%{?rhel} > 6 # RL_STATE_FEDORA_GDB would not be found for: # Patch642: gdb-readline62-ask-more-rh.patch @@ -616,7 +618,7 @@ BuildRequires: systemtap-sdt-devel # Copied from prelink-0.4.2-3.fc13. %ifarch %{ix86} alpha sparc sparcv9 sparc64 s390 s390x x86_64 ppc ppc64 # Prelink is broken on sparcv9/sparc64. -%ifnarch sparc sparcv9 sparc64 +%ifnarch sparc sparcv9 sparc64 ppc64le BuildRequires: prelink %endif %endif @@ -649,7 +651,7 @@ BuildRequires: glibc-static%{bits_local} # for gcc-java linkage: BuildRequires: zlib-devel%{bits_local} zlib-devel%{bits_other} # Copied from valgrind-3.5.0-1. -%ifarch %{ix86} x86_64 ppc ppc64 +%ifarch %{ix86} x86_64 ppc ppc64 ppc64le BuildRequires: valgrind%{bits_local} valgrind%{bits_other} %endif %if 0%{!?rhel:1} || 0%{?rhel} > 6 @@ -921,7 +923,7 @@ export LDFLAGS="%{?__global_ldflags} %{?_with_asan:-fsanitize=addr --with-system-gdbinit=%{_sysconfdir}/gdbinit \ --with-gdb-datadir=%{_datadir}/gdb \ --enable-gdb-build-warnings=,-Wno-unused \ -%ifnarch %{ix86} alpha ppc s390 s390x x86_64 ppc64 sparc sparcv9 sparc64 +%ifnarch %{ix86} alpha ppc s390 s390x x86_64 ppc64 sparc sparcv9 sparc64 ppc64le --disable-werror \ %else --enable-werror \
