From f96536ecb3c6e3c1a76c10fb7161155c33174562 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chandan Singh Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2019 12:12:45 +0000 Subject: _platform/platform.py: Add alias for IBM AIX 7 powerpc `uname -m` is unusable in case of IBM AIX 7 as it reports the serial number of the machine. As a workaround, special case it and use the reported processor identifier. --- src/buildstream/_platform/platform.py | 14 +++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/buildstream/_platform/platform.py b/src/buildstream/_platform/platform.py index 848db509b..047c1490f 100644 --- a/src/buildstream/_platform/platform.py +++ b/src/buildstream/_platform/platform.py @@ -155,6 +155,7 @@ class Platform: "i686": "x86-32", "power-isa-be": "power-isa-be", "power-isa-le": "power-isa-le", + "powerpc": "power-isa-be", "powerpc64": "power-isa-be", # Used in GCC/LLVM "powerpc64le": "power-isa-le", # Used in GCC/LLVM "ppc64": "power-isa-be", @@ -180,9 +181,16 @@ class Platform: # (string): String representing the architecture @staticmethod def get_host_arch(): - # get the hardware identifier from uname - uname_machine = platform.uname().machine - return Platform.canonicalize_arch(uname_machine) + uname = platform.uname() + + if uname.system.lower() == 'aix': + # IBM AIX systems reports their serial number as the machine + # hardware identifier.
