Parent article: Resurrecting the SuperH architecture

If anyone is interested in improving the state of this stuff from a distro point of view, we are running weekly CI to bootstrap debian on many arches, incluing or1k and sh4 (https://jenkins.debian.net/view/rebootstrap/)

sh4 gets a lot futher than or1k does right now, which isn't much of a surprise as a load of or1k toolchain stuff is not fully upstreamed yet (AIUI). No arch gets all the way to a bootable system yet - we still have more stuff to fix for that to be working usefully, but most of the infrastructure work is done. Just the work-work now (crossbuilding, bootstrap build profiles, multiarch dependency issues).

(yes we know sh4 is already bootstrapped many years ago, it's just an example of fixing this for the general case).

It's good to see interest in these free ISAs - I hope they prosper. Upstream your stuff so it's easy for us to build :-)
