Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/2] Enable ILP32 mode on aarch64, update abilist files
Date: Wed, 30 Nov 2016 00:12:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.2.20.1611300001350.3451@digraph.polyomino.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1480445388.14808.16.camel@caviumnetworks.com>

Please go through all the previous review comments on previous iterations 
of ILP32 support (back to 2014) and make sure they are addressed.  Some 
haven't been.

New comment: please include an addition of ILP32 builds, both LE and BE, 
to build-many-glibcs.py.

Possibly new comment: basing on top of Adhemerval's sysvipc consolidation 
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-11/msg00284.html> would be 
better than adding new versions of various sysvipc files (if you think you 
still need new versions after that patch, you need to work with Adhemerval 
on making it more general).

Examples of old comments, not necessarily exhaustive: use 10.0.0 as 
arch_minimum_kernel until the required changes are actually in Linus's 
tree; descriptive comments before copyright notices on each new C file; 
GLIBC_2.25 as minimum symbol version (or GLIBC_2.26 if it doesn't get in 
within the next month).

Also make sure comments at top of source files are accurate; if you copied 
a sysdeps/gnu file, don't keep the "GNU version." description, make it 
reflect how it's now AArch64-specific.
