boringssl still fails on debian s390x #16
Description
Activity
Hello,
We have built and run the test cases for boringssl. The test cases you mention do pass for us on Ubuntu18.x at the time we work on it.
Please note that we do not maintain boring ssl.
The changes done are on an older commit. The script does build the source at https://github.com/linux-on-ibm-z/boringssl/tree/patch-s390x-Jan2021
We have made minimum changes required to build and test boringssl in this branch to allow the package that depends on it to build. It's not a complete port or support of BE.Thanks for your prompting feedback!
Understood the current status.Hope you can check latest from boringssl soon, and maybe resolve some issues for the tests sometime later.

I tried to build and run tests for boringssl on debian s390x porterbox.
Seems the patch you provided was already upstreamed:
So there's no need to patch anymore.
However, the tests still fail:
docs from boringssl mentioned it only supports little-endian architectures. I guess that's why the tests failed.
So I want to double confirm with you
Thank you!
