Subject: [9fans] p9p on MIPS
Topicbox-Message-UUID: 4e2a054a-ead5-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025

I had occasion to re-install P9P on the YeeLoong (Lemote netbook,
<www.lemote.com>) and the only changes I needed were the addition of a
getcallerpc-mips.c (or equivalent, see below) and the adjustments of
src/mkhdr and the related dist/buildmk.

Took me a long time to note the comment at the beginning of mkhdr and
that meant a lot of hunting for the wrong problem.

Back to getcallerpc(), I have no idea how to express the -32 and -64
versions in gas (I can't find any documentation on GAS' version of the
MIPS instruction set and I have serious trouble with va's too :-( nor
am I convinced that I'd be using the right one if I could build it, I
need to figure out things with GCC and the choice of wordsize.  All
very mysterious...
