Comment 12 for bug 1547152

Steve,

The patch I produced is in fact a patch to the basic code I produced for ppc64el support. It is then included in the current dev. tree. Unfortunately the common code has been rewritten a lot with later commits to include new features (liked dwarf support) and that created some code changes in the ppc64el section but the essence is the same... more cleaning than anything.

However I haven't debugged the dwarf support for ppc64el so I do believe there is no need to update for now.
Current tests reported including:
- make check from source
- ltrace ps
- ltrace ls
- ltrace sleep 1
have been tested

To answer your question about commit, status is more commit eea4ad2cce289753aaa35b4e0258a76d8f8f367c with some later fixes, so it doesn't reach commit 5565cbbd8b363fae085ac3bb9fb37773325bbd1c - For example it doesn't include cosmetic commit 5565cbbd8b363fae085ac3bb9fb37773325bbd1c but functionality is there.
Hope it answers your questions.
