Bug#376018: linux-kernel-di-powerpc-2.6: Please add support for the native ppc64 architecture
Package: linux-kernel-di-powerpc-2.6
Version: 1.17
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Hello,
the attached patch adds support for the native ppc64 architecture to
linux-kernel-di-powerpc-2.6.
The patch adds a new kernel for the native ppc64 port to 'kernel-versions'
and creates a new 'modules/ppc64' directory with module files
that reuse the existing files from the 'modules/powerpc-powerpc64'
directory by including them.
With this setup, every change that is made to the existing
powerpc-powerpc64 case will be immediately used for the
native ppc64 case without any extra ppc64 specific work.
Alternatively, a separate linux-kernel-di-ppc64-2.6 package could
be created for the native ppc64 port. However, that would create
unnecessary extra work because every change that is made to the
powerpc-powerpc64 version would have to be manually copied to
the ppc64 package.
Moreover, a separate ppc64 package could not be uploaded to the main
archive because uploads for the non-release ppc64 architecture are not
possible.
Regards
Andreas Jochens
