Subject: [PATCH v2 2/4] powerpc/64: Make ELFv2 the default for big-endian builds
Date: Tue, 6 Jun 2023 19:38:30 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230606093832.199712-3-npiggin@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230606093832.199712-1-npiggin@gmail.com>
All supported toolchains now support ELFv2 on big-endian, so flip the
default on this and hide the option behind EXPERT for the purpose of
bug hunting.
