Request for help to support LoongArch architecture in ocaml source
Dear maintainers,
Please don't feel bothered by my sudden letter.
I would like to ask for your help.
This e-mail is about the support for LoongArch architecture in ocaml source.
The support for LoongArch architecture has been submitted in ocaml upstream.
However, the submission request to support LoongArch is still in open
status.
Please see https://github.com/ocaml/ocaml/pull/11974.
Ocaml 4.14.1-1 version compiled for loong64 in the Debian Package
Auto-Building environment lacks LoongArch support.
Please see
https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?pkg=ocaml&ver=4.14.1-1&arch=loong64.
For the above situation, the current solution is to upload the
unreleased version for loong64 to the debian ports.
Please see
http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports/pool-loong64/main/o/ocaml/.
Currently, based on the unreleased version of Ocaml, more and more
packages (the compilation dependency is ocaml) are being built for
loong64 in the Debian Package Auto-Building environment and the
packages' build status are normal.
The build status for loong64 can be found at
https://buildd.debian.org/status/architecture.php?a=loong64&suite=sid.
At the same time, we have submitted a patch with LoongArch support to
Debian BTS.
Please see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1054109.
We hope the support for LoongArch can be merged into ocaml upstream.
Could you give us suggestions for promoting patches being merged?
Your opinions are welcome.
Thanks,
Dandan Zhang
