>From the buildlogs / testlogs / local tests (ppc64el qemu), it seems that there is completely no improvement for ppc64el. Simple scripts can still encounter segmentation faults (e.g., autopkgtest for src:lua-moses). s390x is newly enabled. I still have not seen enough test log to give any prelimin

Hi Mo, Paul, did you see any improvement with luajit2 ? I was looking at luakit, which still fails "silently" on ppc64el, a lua script generating a .h with no symbols with luajit2, where it does work with lua. Also I see that the autopkgtest of knot-resolver still fails on ppc64el. F. On Thu, 19

Hi Dipack, I filed an ITP bug for luajit2 and will look into it. Thank you! On Mon, 2022-05-16 at 16:22 +, Dipak Zope1 wrote: > Hello all, > It'd be better to switch to luajit2 if it is possible. We can see > right now the main issue with luajit project is no response from > upstream of LuaJI

Hi, I've followed luajit closely since 2015 on ppc64el as a porter without enough knowledge to port it, but trying to ease on the packaging/Debian side (being both IBMer/DD). That port has been a mixed effort between a code bounty and an IBM effort (some devs) . It didn't started well ( https://w

Hi folks, I learned in disappointment after becoming LuaJit uploader that the LuaJit upstream behaves uncooperatively especially for IBM architectures [1]. IIUC, the upstream has no intention to care about IBM architectures (ppc64el, s390x). The current ppc64el support on stable is done through c
