--- Comment #3 from Pali Rohár <pali at kernel dot org> --- I'm still using processors with e500 cores with recent Linux kernel versions and I know also other people who also still using them. Note that NXP still supports some QorIQ processors which have integrated e500 cores. So it is not truth that they are no longer supported by FreeScale/NXP. I know that e500 support was mostly removed out of GCC, but something is still there. And due to this removal, LLVM and clang recently gained some usable e500v2 implementation. I was told that it was heavily tested on FreeBSD with desktop applications. Also musl libc in last year got e500 support. So, no, e500 cpu core is not dead and people still care about it.
