To confirm, they are the following revisions:
* r241171 (sparc64 relocations, e1fc2925 in go master, now also in
gofrontend/gccgo)
* r241084 (don't use pt_regs; unnecessary, and seemingly not defined by
the included headers on arm64)
* r241072 (make rawClone no_split_stack)
* r241051 (fix getrandom on sparc64 and clone on sparc*)
* r240457 (add getrandom for MIPS/SPARC)
We've been using the latest gcc-6 package with these patches (other than
no_split_stack and pt_regs fixups) applied on top for sparc64 (uploaded
to unreleased) for the past few days, and the only packages which fail
to build seem to be because Debian currently has an out-of-date x/sys
package without sparc64 definitions. I haven't been aware of any
regressions.
Ian: I imagine the getrandom and elf changes would be fine for gcc-6,
but what about the clone changes? I can understand if that's too
invasive, but backporting would be great.
Regards,
James
