I propose the following triplet for Fedora on AArch64:
aarch64-redhat-linux-gnu
Skipping the vendor part, that means generally:
aarch64-linux-gnu
There should be no reason to deviate from this. I'm putting it out there now because I don't want another ARMv7 experience later :)
unless you're doing big endian then it's: aarch64_be-linux-gnu
In discussions with various folks, it seems that none of the distros are particularly interested in BE. \o/
i was just more nettling Jon ;)
Always fun. Note that just because we agree on the triplet, doesn't mean that we've yet had the fun of discussing the linker path until we pass out form sheer exhaustion. So, let's have that one out before some of us go doing our own thing. From my point of view, we don't care /at all/ about multi-arch and certainly I have no plans of even supporting a 32-bit ARM userspace on AArch64 (if you want that, use virtualization). Sure, the latter is aspirational and someone will ruin it, so maybe we need to go to /lib64 rather than /lib (I don't want to).
Or do it properly with multiarch: :-) /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf
Forgive my sarcasm. Perhaps not everyone sees I'm just messing with you over the multi-arch thing. To each his own as long as we agree on the linker path :) Thanks for the informative response Wookey :)
Jon.
