[gentoo-dev] Porting ZFS to additional architectures

Dear Everyone,

Does anyone have root access to Linux systems on any of the following
architectures that is willing to help ZFS development?

Alpha
HPPA
IA-64
MIPS/MIPS64
PPC/PPC64
SH
SPARC/SPARC64

I want to port ZFSOnLinux to all Gentoo Linux architectures this year.
The above architectures either are not currently supported or have not
been tested in a while. Most of them will require patching isa_defs.h,
which I am in a position to do. I am not distributing the patches
because I don't know if ZFS will build on those platforms.

People willing (and able) to help should email me with their
architecture and distribution. Gentoo Linux is preferred, but not
required. No knowledge of programming is required. I will provide you
with instructions on how to build and test ZFS on your architecture.

Yours truly,
Richard Yao
