I have contacted a Chris A. Swartout (cas30@oes.amdahl.com), who verified that the value of EM_S370 (9) is used for IBM System/370 Processors. This value still exists in the binutils source (/binutils/include/elf/common.h). I have had the value officially registered with SCO (registry@sco.com). A new ABI is going to be published soon. I myself am trying to get ABI information, but haven't heard back yet. --David -----Original Message----- From: linas@linas.org To: David and Jannette Uczen Cc: ian@zembu.com ; binutils@sourceware.cygnus.com ; linas@linas.org Date: Friday, October 29, 1999 12:22 PM Subject: Re: IBM S/370 and binutils >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Ian Lance Taylor >> To: uczen@mint.net >> Cc: binutils@sourceware.cygnus.com >> Date: Wednesday, October 27, 1999 7:40 PM >> Subject: Re: IBM S/370 and binutils >> >> >> > From: "David and Jannette Uczen" >> > Date: Wed, 27 Oct 1999 19:22:49 -0400 >> > >> > I am forwarding this message to inform the binutils developers that I >> > believe that any further use of the ELF machine type EM_I370 (0xF00F) >> should >> > be discontinued. > >Ian, > >I picked this value in the absence of any other suitable value. >There is no formal ELF ABI that would specify such a value, >although I have been working on & off with folks inside of IBM >(the TJ Watson research center) to create such an ABI.
