JDK7 Shark Build

[Curtis Hamilton]

Has anyone been successful in building a JDK7 Shark JVM on a non-X86?

 

I’ve been successfully built a Zero JVM for ppc64.  Building Shark, after applying a couple of patches to ciTypeFlow.cpp, everything seems to build the JVM okay.  However, it errors when trying to use the newly built JVM following:

 

“Error while creating Shark JIT: Unable to find target for this triple (no targets are registered)”

I’ve searched the net and found references to at least one other person getting the same results building Shark on MIPS.  I don’t believe a bug report was filed.  And cannot find any solution.  I have no idea how to register the shark JIT into the build.

Does anybody know how to deal with this? Thanks in advance and looking forward to any reply.
