Hello,
we are in the process of bootstrapping a Debian port for the
riscv64 architecture (https://wiki.debian.org/RISC-V). The
libffi package is part of the build-dependency chain for the
essential package set, so we need to build it for riscv64 to be
able to complete the bootstrap process.
Current upstream libffi doesn't yet have support for the RISC-V
architecture, but a pull request to add it has been submitted:
https://github.com/libffi/libffi/pull/281/ respectively
https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/libffi/libffi/pull/281.patch
The pull request has been authored by one of the Fedora riscv64
porters and the Fedora riscv64 port already uses this patchset.
It would be great if you could add the patchset to the Debian
libffi package as well.
The RISC-V support provided by the patchset is not all-encompassing
(please cf. the last comment from Stefan O'Rear in the pull
request), but it provides the same amount of features that libffi
has for a number of other Debian-supported architectures, so that
shouldn't be a problem. The symbols file would need to be
adjusted, though:
dh_makeshlibs -plibffi7 --add-udeb=libffi7-udeb
dpkg-gensymbols: warning: some symbols or patterns disappeared in the symbols file: see diff output below
dpkg-gensymbols: warning: debian/libffi7/DEBIAN/symbols doesn't match completely debian/libffi7.symbols
