[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi! LLVM is getting a sparc64 backend. It can even selfhost on linux. But it cant on FreeBSD. I am wondering what causes that difference. A small test case where the difference can be seen is compiling tcsh from base. The gethost utility used during the build just coredumps. I suspect fixing that might get us on par with linux. So I am looking for someone who is willing to compile llvm/clang and analyze whats wrong with gethost in tcsh compilation. This is how to do it (you need trunk llvm/clang): svn co http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk llvm cd llvm/ svn co http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk clang cd ../ CFLAGS=-fno-strict-aliasing CXXFLAGS=-fno-strict-aliasing ./configure --enable-optimized --enable-targets=sparc64 make make install will give you a clang binary that you can use for tcsh compilation: cd /usr/src/bin/csh CC=clang make I am more than willing to help with llvm/clang side of this but I dont know anything about sparc64 so I need help. But please contact me if you want to help!
