Re: [PATCH] Add hwcap2 bits for POWER9

However, I do agree with the concerns raised by Peter and Adhemerval: glibc
should be in sync with the kernel by the time of the release in order to
guarantee both bits are reserved for the exact same goal and we should have
both AT_HWCAP and AT_PLATFORM supporting the new processor.
With that said, I was planning to revert both commits d2de9ef7 and b1f19b8e
if we don't get the kernel patch accepted into the powerpc tree in time for
the release 2.23.


Kernel patch is in, commit f689b742f217b2ffe7925f8a6521b208ee995309
