Description Dennis Gilmore 2013-03-23 00:04:37 UTC 
Support for the ARM 64 bit CPU architecture (aarch64) was introduced in 
autoconf 2.69.  atf appears to use an earlier version of 
autoconf, preventing its being built.  This can be fixed in of three ways (In order of preference):

1. Work with upstream to migrate the package to autoconf 2.69.

2. Rerun autoconf or autoreconf in %prep or %build prior to running 
configure.

3. Apply the patch at http://ausil.fedorapeople.org/aarch64/atf/atf-aarch64.patch
which updates config.guess and config.sub to recognize aarch64.
Comment 1 Julio Merino 2013-04-19 22:09:07 UTC 
Have you built and run the test suite successfully after the above steps?  I'm wondering if there are any other fixes to be made for aarch64.

At the moment I don't have any substantial changes in the pipeline to warrant a new release of ATF, so I might go for option 2 instead temporarily.

Thanks.
