I just unpacked an old Asus router from my suitecase.I brought it to Jakarta from Sragen during the Eid Fitri holiday. But did not have enough mood to get it run until today. It stayed in my suitecase for 2 weeks.I plan to use it for testing my apps, making sure my apps can run on the MIPS architecture.

Sadly it is an LE machine. I wish I got a BE machine because my testing should also prove that I correctly handle endianess diversity across various architectures.

@ammarfaizi2 If you have a Pi and the thing you're working on runs on NetBSD, they have big endian AArch64 images you can usehttps://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-10.1/evbarm-aarch64eb/

@koakuma Woh Cool.I never actually see aarch64 machine runs on its BE mode.My app is specific to Linux, but I think if port the event loop from the Linux io_uring and epoll to POSIX poll(), I should be able to run it on BSD too. Or maybe I can go further with the BSD kqueue instead of POSIX poll() to learn something new.
