I think the mapping from ppc64le to ppc64 should get removed with the introduction of ppc64le as separate architecture: https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/64f6681cc7bb184112adcf2b4f2c313e1b0a5c4f/src/jdk.jlink/share/classes/jdk/tools/jlink/internal/Platform.java#LL55C5-L55C5 Would you mind removing it with your change? ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/14063#issuecomment-1562010424
