I reverted commits 99b60ce6 and b0c29f79. Then applied the patches in the above url. The last one had a reject but it was pretty straightforward to resolve it. After this, specjbb completes. So reverting and applying v3 3/4 and 4/4 patches works for me. -- Thanks and Regards Srikar Dronamraju _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
