Re: [PATCH] mips64-linux-gnu abi_check issues


> Yes, I was going to add the multilibs later.

On powerpc64 and x86_64 multilibs, the 64-ish ABIs go into the top layer
and the 32-ish ABIs go into a nested directory. What you are proposing
breaks with that, as I understand it. Perhaps this is temporary, while
you hack on the multilibs for mips64?

It would be great to be consistent with this setup on mips too: that
should be the long term goal. There are a lot of mips ABIs, so
I'm not quite sure how this (admittedly fragile) setup will work.

I'm ok with this going in now since it appears to be correct for the N32
ABI and the number of linux-mips64 users and system integrators to
confuse seems quite small. (From a quick scan of gcc-testresults). But
please fix this up long-term, since when you add the N64 ABIs it will
appear to be broken.

best,
