Hi Timo and Mark,

Doesn't sound very good indeed. Do you still have detailed logs from
running the testsuites? I think at least the file
testsuite/systemtap.sum should list which tests exactly failed, maybe
there is some common cause to most of these failures.
Yes, taking a look at it, the most common failures come from the
'listing_mode' test -- 633 failures (out of 835):
# grep -c '^FAIL: listing_mode' systemtap.sum
633
A nice improvement on that one might put ppc64el closer to powerpc
(244 uf). I'll take a look at it.

Consider configuring with "--enable-dejazilla" to automatically

Sure. I'll contribute results there after making sure I'm not making
(any other) big mistakes :)
Also since systemtap depends on elfutils you might need ppc64le elfutils
support, which only recently has been contributed:
Hey, many thanks for pointing those out. It would be hard to get serious
results w/out correct ABI support. :)
I built an elfutils package w/ your patches. The unexpected failures
decreased by 24 (from 835 to 811).
I'd like to submit those for Debian once the 2nd patch is accepted.
(I believe it's close, for I haven't seen replies on that list :)
I'll try to find something about the listing_mode failures.
Thanks for your help,
