- David Nadlinger (12/15) Nov 07 2017 LDC is currently the compiler farthest along the way to AArch64 support
on the wiki, it says it's not supported... what does this mean? I'd at some point like to build 64bit, will it ever be possible in the reasonably near future?

I've had this Anandtech overview of that chip open in Chrome for months, haven't finished reading it yet: https://www.anandtech.com/show/11737/analyzing-falkors-microarchitecture-a-deep-dive-into-qualcomms-centriq-2400-for-windows-server-and-linux

I'd at some point like to build 64bit, will it ever be possible in the reasonably near future?LDC is currently the compiler farthest along the way to AArch64 support (because I put some work into it a while ago). Two main things need implementing still: The D interface to variadic arguments (passing them works fine, but the va_arg!() template doesn't yet), and 128 bit real support in some parts of the formatting code (which depends on either having the (u)cent types available, or a minor rewrite). Do get in touch if you feel like helping out – all the basics are in place (with my patch from the issue linked earlier) and the test suite mostly passes, so it should be relatively easy to get started.
