Last millennia, don't you mean? ^.^

Sorry, couldn't resist. If I had known about Inferno when I still had my PS2 Linux Kit working... =(

Interesting. I did 4c last century (for the Inferno PS2 port). Must have not made it into the distrib.

Hello 9Fans,

I would like to share that mips64 support of Plan 9 is currently
available. The compiler and the libraries are at
https://bitbucket.org/cherry9/4c
And a 64-bit kernel for Loongson machine is built, at
https://bitbucket.org/cherry9/plan9-loongson64
The kernel seems to work fine, and so do programs like acme and page.

The userland support is in the compiler repo instead of along with the
kernel, as I hope it will be useful for not only Loongson but mips64
in general.

The kernel is not 9k kernel though. It is instead a (minimal)
modification from 32-bit Plan 9. The next step is probably to switch
to 9k kernel. For the userland, ape is not ported yet, so a few
programs don't build. Currently the kernel code is not so
user-friendly: to build the kernel, it needs to bind _port64/ before
/sys/src/9/port/, and in the 32-bit Loongson sources bind 2f/ to the
front to use 2F drivers. A kernel image is uploaded to the download
page of the repo.

Hope this is useful.

Thanks,
- cherry
