# Based on linux package
-# Based on linux-libre package, actually - megver83 will become maintainer eventually
+
+# Rationale: This package enables to run 64bit kernels with 32bit rootfs.
+#
+# For armv7k/aarch64, we have no aarch64 port yet, and the 32bit
+# kernels don't work for 64bit computers (no 64bit DTB files, etc).
+#
+# In turn if we can boot Parabola on these computers, it enables
+# people to work on an aarch64 port more easily as chrooting in 64bit
+# rootfs from 32bit rootfs work when we have a 64bit kernel (tested on
+# an x86_64 computer with a Parabola i686 rootfs and a Parabola x86_64
+# chroot).
+#
+# This enable to make rootfs that work on both 64bit and 32bit
+# computers. In that case the user will still need to select the right
+# kernel at boot.
+#
+# Generally speaking it also enable users to benefit from many of the
+# improvements of 64bit kernels (ability to chroot in 64bit rootfs,
+# better security, 4GiB address space per process instead of 3GiB for
+# 32bit rootfs, etc) without having to reinstall everything. In
+# addition, there was and is still no conversion guide to convert a
+# 32bit Parabola installation to 64bit), and in some cases (lot of
+# self-built software in /usr/local, PostgreSQL database, etc) the
+# migration to 64bit requires some work.
+#
+# As for using i686 for new installation on x86_64 computers, it can
+# enable people doing that to find and fix bugs on Parabola i686 to
+# enable people with 32bit-only computers (like Libreboot compatible
+# I945 Thinkpads) to still be able to use Parabola.
+#
+# Having both architectures (arm and x86) in the same PKGBUILD enables
+# to more widely test this package (if we find issues on x86, they'll
+# most likely apply to arm as well). Though it can become a problem if
+# we need different kernel versions for both architectures.
+#
+# Status:
+# - Tested on both arm and x86.
+# - The build is currently broken on ARM due to a missing cross
+# compiler for armv7h (it was accidentally removed and it doesn't
+# build anymore).
+# - External modules (like Wireguard or tp_smapi) also need to be
+# cross compiled. So modules for linux-libre-64 need to be added
+# (like tp_smapi-64) and dkms packages need to be adapted to also
+# work for this kernel.
+# - Some software (like building Guix) break with 32bit rootfs and
+# 64bit kernels due to wrong assumption about the number of bits,
+# through other software (like building rust with mrustc) work
+# better (here because we have 3GiB instead of 3GiB of memory per
+# process). Most software is not affected though.
