Dear Everyone, |

Does anyone have root access to Linux systems on any of the following |
4 |
architectures that is willing to help ZFS development? |
5 |
|
6 |
Alpha |
7 |
HPPA |
8 |
IA-64 |
9 |
MIPS/MIPS64 |
10 |
PPC/PPC64 |
11 |
SH |
12 |
SPARC/SPARC64 |
13 |
|

I want to port ZFSOnLinux to all Gentoo Linux architectures this year. |
15 |
The above architectures either are not currently supported or have not |
16 |
been tested in a while. Most of them will require patching isa_defs.h, |
17 |
which I am in a position to do. I am not distributing the patches |
18 |
because I don't know if ZFS will build on those platforms. |
19 |
|
20 |
People willing (and able) to help should email me with their |
21 |
architecture and distribution. Gentoo Linux is preferred, but not |
22 |
required. No knowledge of programming is required. I will provide you |
23 |
with instructions on how to build and test ZFS on your architecture. |
24 |
|
25 |
Yours truly, |
