Bug#850732: linux: please support building linux-libc-dev for the sh3 architecture
Source: linux
Version: 4.9.1-1~exp1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
User: helmutg@debian.org
Usertags: rebootstrap
Hi!
Similar to [1], I would like to ask to add basic support for sh3
in the Linux kernel package so that we can start bootstrapping this
architecture in rebootstrap.
The motivation is that sh3 is expected to be support by the J-Core
open source CPU in the near future [2] which is fully compatible
with the existing SuperH SH-3 architecture which has already
partial support in Debian due to previous efforts before the SuperH
port in Debian switched over to sh4 [3].
Attaching a patch against the linux source package in experimental.
Thanks,
Adrian
