The state of the architectures

[Andreas K. Huettel]

Hello everyone, 

following the release, here's my somewhat subjective summary of the machine 
testing results again.

Full info:
https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Release/2.44#Build_and_test_results

Cheers
Andreas

============================================

1) Perfect

* aarch64 (clean)
* arm (1 FAIL on armv7a-unknown-linux-gnueabihft64)
  The failure is a bug in our testsuite (test binary missing libgcc_s.so)
* loongarch64 (1 FAIL)
  The failure is a bug in our testsuite, fix has been posted.
* ppc64 (clean)
* s390x (clean)
* x86 (clean)
* x86_64 (clean)

============================================

2) Good 

* ppc32 (1 FAIL)
* ppc64le (6 FAIL, 3 FAIL)
  These are one and the same gcc maths problem.
* riscv64 (1 FAIL, 6 FAIL)
  Could be clean if not for an abovementioned bug in our testsuite, fix has been posted.
  No analysis provided for the 6 FAIL on Debian.
* sparc64 (5 FAIL)
* x32 (2 FAIL)
  From memory, known problems.

============================================

3) Medium

* hppa (10 FAIL, 2 FAIL, no regressions)
  For hppa that's actually quite good.
* mips n64 (11 FAIL)
  Some of these are already getting adressed, so this is better than it seems

============================================

4) Bad

* alpha (881 FAIL)
  Even if we ignore the many failing math tests (which are a known problem
  unlikely to be fixed), there's still quite some breakage.
* or1k (22 FAIL)
  No analysis provided.
* sparc32 (34 FAIL)

============================================

5) Nobody cares

* m68k
* mips o32, n32
* riscv32
