Objet : RE:[PATCH,AIX] Enable FFI Go Closure on AIX
Hi,
We have built and installed the libffi master of yesterday on a AIX 6.1 machine
and we have rebuilt and tested Python3 (3.5.2) with this libffi. And that is
OK. 32bit and 64bit.
5 more tests were run and succeeded.
And 1 test (test_ssl) which was skipped before is now run but failed due to no
access to Web (Resource 'sha256.tbs-internet.com' is not available).
So. our patch does not break libffi build and tests, nor Python3 build and
tests.
That looks OK.
We'll submit the patch to the libffi project now.
Regards,
Tony
With New libffi:
369 tests OK.
12 tests failed:
test_asyncio test_distutils test_eintr test_httpservers
test_locale test_posix test_socket test_ssl test_tools
test_urllib2 test_urllib2_localnet test_urllib2net
1 test altered the execution environment:
test_io
16 tests skipped:

Libffi project now is on Github
https://github.com/libffi/libffi
I think that Anthony now uses pull requests.
Once the patches are in the upstream project, we can backport them to GCC.
Thanks, David
