I'll note that:

Bug 214855 - head -r309179 TARGET_ARCH=3Dpowerpc64 clang 3.9.0 based =
cross build: powerpc.powerpc64/usr/src/tmp/usr/bin/ld: BFD 2.17.50 =
[FreeBSD] 2007-07-03 internal error

means that I can not use the bootstrap binutils to do buildworld for =
powerpc64.
I've confirmed that it still happens in -r311147 .

So to span both buildkernel and buildworld  does require =
devel/powerpc64-binutils
or the like for TARGET_ARCH=3Dpowerpc64 .

Well it turns out I was wrong: after the @toc changes (now in the
TOC_REF(...) macro instead of per instruction) I can boot a kernel built
using the bootstrap system binutils and clang as well.
devel/powerpc64-binutils or the like is not required.

It looks like bugzilla 215821 is wrong/redundant and 215819 actually
covers the issue. I will likely close 215821 after I've played around
some more.

I can build with clang 3.9.1, devel/powerpc64-xtoolchain-gcc, or gcc =
4.2.1
as I have things. clang 3.9.1 based builds do not handle throwing C++
exceptions. lib32 does not work for devel/powerpc64-gcc based builds.


As stands I have head -r311147 with:

The various KERNCONF's include standard ones then adjust things.
They are not otherwise relevant.


Notes on the differences ("M" lines):

[I do not have a context to test powerpc's kboot or uboot
for powerpc or powerpc64: only PowerMacs. Those Makefile
changes were based on avoiding build errors that occurred
before the change (long ago). I've not gone back through
the armv6(/v7) and arm64 builds recently but historically
they have worked on the rpi2, bpim3, and pine64 with the
boot/uboot/Makefile.inc change in place.]


llvm/lib/Target/PowerPC/PPCInstrInfo.td is Roman D.'s
incomplete patch for the e500 instructions. It was
sufficient to let me continue.


The various Makefile*'s and *.mk's deal with:

-mlongcall (gcc) vs. not (clang)

-m elf32ppc_fbsd (old) vs. -Wl,-m -Wl,elf32ppc_fbsd (new)

-mcpu=3Dpowerpc64 and -Wa,-mppc64bridge in a Makefile
(kboot) that TARGET_ARCH=3Dpowerpc tried to build and
failed: delete the usage of these options. (No test
validation of built kboot result!)

-Wa,many for gcc vs. no-such for clang


sys/conf/kern.mk deals with:

-mllvm -disable-ppc-float-in-variadic=3Dtrue (older clang)
vs.
-msoft-float (newer clang)


sys/modules/zfs/Makefile deals with:

-mminimial-toc (gcc) vs. no-such (clang)


sys/ddb/db_main.c and sys/ddb/db_script.c :

These would not be included. (They set up to execute
a built-in default script so I get information for
early boot issues from before ddb takes input.)


sys/powerpc/aim/trap_subr32.S deals with:

Have a cmp instruction be explicit by adding a "0, ".
(This is a TARGET_ARCH=3Dpowerpc issue, not a
TARGET_ARCH=3Dpowerpc64 issue.)


sys/powerpc/include/asm.h deals with:

Have TOC_REF(...) also include @toc in the notation
that results. Have a TOC_NAME_FOR_REF(...) that only
adds the .L to the name passed in and use it where
appropriate.


sys/powerpc/ofw/ofw_machdep.c :

This would not be included. (It is a PowerMac G5 specific
workaround for a openfirmware vs. FreeBSD conflict that
makes booting unreliable for standard FreeBSD builds.)



The details that are not driven by PowerMac G5 specifics
look like:

Mark,

Would you be interested in trying lld? It has some support for =
ppc/ppc64, which
is probably quite incomplete but it would be nice to know what exactly =
is
missing.

We also have some people (emaste@, davide@) that have non-trivial lld =
knowledge
so perhaps progress can be achieved on this side easily?
