Created attachment 580226 [details] Use YARR interpreter instead of PCRE on platforms where YARR JIT is not supported Based on Landry Breuil's patch posted on the upstream bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691898
Created attachment 580229 [details] Only build SPS on supported platforms Based on Mike Hommey's patch posted on the upstream bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=734335
Created attachment 580231 [details] Disable JEMALLOC_STATIC_SIZES on powerpc Disables the use of JEMALLOC_STATIC_SIZES on powerpc since it assumes 4k page size. JEMALLOC_STATIC_SIZES was introduced after landing of: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=571209
I was able to build xulrunner-12.0-1.fc17 on powerpc: http://ppc.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=512647 I used the patches #580226, #580229 and #580231 to build xulrunner on powerpc. It was not needed to build successfully, but I also used in my scratch build Martin's patch posted here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=746112 firefox-12.0-1.fc17 built with no issues. I tested the built packages on ppc64 and it works as good as [xulrunner|firefox]-10.0-1.fc17. If you are interested, I have also xulrunner-11.0-3.fc17 version of these patches.
"it works as good as [xulrunner|firefox]-10.0-1.fc17" - so does it freeze or not? (Bug 813095).
Yes, it does :(
The patch should be included in Firefox 15.
The changes are committed to master branch in Fedora and a scratch build is at http://ppc.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=535816 Marting will update F<=17 branches later.

Still consumes 100% CPU while executing jscripts. If I switch to safe mode it starts at least. I wonder can we borrow some PPC-related patches from TenFourFox project. I'm using it on a daily basis and it works good. http://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/
The bug on PPC/Fedora17 is cuased by broken gcc47 on ppc. The firefox version is not related here.
It should be already fixed on F17.
