I am developing a patch to the entire tree to allow this. The approach is to duplicate any special-case code for armv6 to armv7. In = most cases this will be, for example, NOT_FOR_ARCHS gaining an armv7 entry. The= se will probably not need too much testing. Other changes are more invasive. In addition to the overall total patch I = will soon attach to this PR, I will open separate PRs for various pieces of it f= or those types of changes, or changes that affect ports with many dependencies (devel/llvm*, lang/gcc*, lang/perl5*), and reference them here. My suggestion is to have at least 2 exp-runs: - the first, on amd64, to prove "first, do no harm". I am running tests h= ere which I want to have pass before submitting the entire patch. - the second, with qemu and arch set to 'armv7'. I expect this run will be at _least_ as good as the armv6 one; there may be certain ports which wi= ll actually build on armv7 and not on armv6. Nevertheless, we have to check for regressions. - another would be with qemu/armv6, again, to prove no regressions. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.=
