Is there any plans to support ppc32 (power pc 32-bit)? I see only 64-bit supported.
Thanks.

I’m afraid the only way to get go running on an ppc32 would be using gccgo
I don’t think there will be any efforts soon support ppc32 for which computer or embedded device do you need the support?
Thanks. I finally your answer. It is a PowerPC e500v2 dual core CPU. The exact model is Freescale’s P1020 QorIQ. However, my guess is that info probably won’t change anything and I have to use gccgo.
Is there a reason why 32-bit is not supported but 64-bit is? Seems kinda of strange.
I only used PowerPC prcessores back then when Apple used them and I was running Linux on two PS3s just for fun… I would try to post this question also on https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/golang-nuts
and on the Gopher Slack Channel: https://invite.slack.golangbridge.org/
I don’t think the demand for using Go on 32-Bit PowerPC systems is very high right now…
I’m no expert in programming embedding systems but I’m wondering if Go is a good choice for embedding systems because of the large binary size compared to C programs…
I’m afraid this won’t help you much but I think you should talk about this with an real Go expert like @dfc for example about this topic.
Gccgo is your best and probably only choice here.
