On powerpc64 FreeBSD: # uname -m powerpc # uname -p powerpc64 uname -m is not specific to the distinction on FreeBSD. I do not have a powerpc64 linux readily available to do the comparison. But, as I remember, linux based systems had uname -m with fairly standardized content but had uname -p varying in the content that results, even for the same kernel being in use. (uname -i varied like uname -p as I remember.) === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com ( dsl-only.net went away in early 2018-Mar)
