OpenJDK PowerPC Port

Until the OpenJDK project fixes its lack of project infrastructure (like Wiki, Continuous Build Environment, Web pages and Bug systems), this is an interim "semi-official" project page for the OpenJDK PowerPC Port for Linux and AIX. The top-level project repository contains a README-ppc.html file with hopefully always up to date, PowerPC specific build instructions.

Test results

After the build, we run a set of basic tests with the VM:

Further every night we use the product build of the last night as bootstrap JDK for the nightly build.

OpenJDK Linux/PPC64 Port bootstrap JDK

Starting with revision ppc-aix-port-b01 the OpenJDK PowerPC port on Linux can bootstrap itself. Starting with revision ppc-aix-port-b03 this bootstrap JDK can run in mixed mode (i.e. with the JIT-compiler turned on) which is much faster. For your convenience a precompiled version can be downloaded here: openjdk1.7.0-ppc-aix-port-linux-ppc64-b03.tar.bz2.

Disassembler library for Linux/PPC64

The disassembler library hsdis-ppc64.so can be downloaded here. More information about how to use the disassembler library can be found in the HotSpot Internals Wiki and the hsdis README file.

OpenJDK AIX/PPC64 Port bootstrap JDK

Starting with revision ppc-aix-port-b02 the OpenJDK PowerPC port on AIX can bootstrap itself. Starting with revision ppc-aix-port-b03 this bootstrap JDK can run in mixed mode (i.e. with the JIT-compiler turned on) which is much faster. For your convenience a precompiled version can be downloaded here: openjdk1.7.0-ppc-aix-port-aix-ppc64-b03.tar.bz2.
