Okay. I am certain that the integration of this port into HotSpot
mainline will be a lot easier than your PowerPC/AIX was: the number
of non-trivial changes is nearly zero.
[By a trivial change I mean '#ifdef AARCH64 #include <aarch64-defs.h>"
or adding "|| defined(AARCH64)" to some existing code. Barring typos,
these cannot affect existing code.]
If it's necessary to produce webrevs to get in-principle approval of
the JEP, I will do so.
Thanks,
Andrew.
