Dear WebKit Developers,

Thank you for your support in getting LLINT for MIPS accepted into trunk.

There are still a few patches that need review in order to get webkit trunk
running on MIPS:

1. DFG JIT: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101328
We did the changes requested by the reviewers. Actually we did 2 versions
of the patch so you can choose which one you like best. Unfortunately we
did not get any reviews since then.

2. 64bit atomic implementation:
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106739
We implemented 64bit atomic increment and decrement using a mutex.
Unfortunately on MIPS there is currently no better solution. The same
solution is used on Android as well. Unfortunately we did not get any more
reviews on this issue either.

3. We also have another pending patch, which is not MIPS specific, but a
fix to the style checker which should help anyone who is submitting patches
with asm() statements:
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101367

This patch has also attracted no review comments so far.

Could anyone please help us in getting these patches reviewed, and
(hopefully) accepted into webkit trunk?

Thank you,
Gergely
