Subject: glibc am33 and cris architectures
Date: Tue, 21 Feb 2012 15:21:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.1202211504050.16457@digraph.polyomino.org.uk> (raw)

The am33 and cris glibc ports won't have worked since the 2.3-2.5 era for 
lack of NPTL/TLS support.  They are currently on the deprecation list for 
removal after glibc 2.16 is released 
<http://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Deprecation>.  But given how long they 
won't have worked, I wonder if we should just remove them now.  Alexandre, 
Hans-Peter - do you have, or know of, any near-term plans to bring your 
respective ports up to date with NPTL and TLS support and updates for all 
the other libc changes in the past several years?  If not, I think it's 
time to remove them.  (Alexandre, since you have write access you can just 
remove the am33 port yourself - "git rm" on the directories sysdeps/am33 
sysdeps/unix/am33 sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/am33 with an appropriate entry 
in ChangeLog.am33.)
