All contributions should have a Developer Certificate of Origin (see below).

|
Development Environment
|
||
|
|
-----------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A host GCC of at least 4.9 is recommended (all modern Linux distributions
|
||
|
|
provide this).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can build on x86-64, ppc64 or ppc64le, you just need a powerpc64 (BE)
|
||
|
|
cross compiler. The powerpc64le cross compilers packaged in Linux distributions
|
||
|
|
can build BE code, so they are fine.
|
||
|
|
|
||
