Applications and Porting / Re: [DEV] Adding support for POWER SIMD in ispc lib

I'll do my best, though I'm currently in a semi-permanent away job, so I'm not on my POWER9 much for sustained periods (part of why there hasn't been much Talospace content either). Job market isn't so great in my line of work these days.

You only have to add (last line):
[[Category:Ports]]

or

[[Category:Ports/Games]] (for e. g. Games)

tle, for all the porting efforts, maybe to make a porting wiki page like this:
https://wiki.raptorcs.com/wiki/Category:Ports

Maybe more people will recognize.
I also posted your ioquake3 call on GitHub in the Talos IRC.

It's pretty much straight-forward changes. I would really appreciate if PPC guru members could review and chime in the PR because I know the core team of ioquake3 might not be well versed in PPC so they might be hesitated in merging the changes.

It's nearly there! I hope today I could get the PR polished for merger.

@ClassicHasClass I would really appreciate if I could get your guidance and support as I start adding more PPC-specific features into ispc. Great thanks in advance

I am rolling my machine over to Fedora within the next couple of weeks. I’ll boot it with the Arc A380 I have kicking around and see if I can coax it into working.
