Support for the Loongson platform, added in 2010 for MIPS-compatible Chinese processors Loongson 2E and 2F, has been removed from OpenBSD. The reason for the removal is noted as build issues for the mips64el platform in new versions of the Clang compiler. After attempting to self-build clang 22 (building clang 22 code using the clang 22 compiler), crashes occurred that did not happen when building clang 22 with clang 19. <\/p>\n
The developer accompanying the Loongson platform noted that he has neither the time nor the energy to investigate the reasons for the regression that has occurred, especially considering that the self-compilation cycle of clang on the existing computer with the Loongson CPU takes 10 days. The regression is likely related to byte order processing, as the issue does not appear on the MIPS platform Octeon (Loongson is Little-Endian, Octeon is Big-Endian). The option of reverting to GCC 4 has been discarded because many ports require a compiler with support for the C++ 11 standard. \n Source: opennet.ru<\/a> <\/p>","protected":false,"gt_translate_keys":[{"key":"rendered","format":"html"}]},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
