It looks like the two PRs in See Also have been merged for serval months. I see you are working on this.(https://github.com/makotokato/gecko-dev/tree/riscv64) Are there any other obstacles to riscv64 porting?

I don't merge it to mozilla-central yet due to other reasons.

• new stable version of authenticator-rs isn't released.
• Since new stable version of midir uses windows-rs, I cannot merge it to mozilla-central until bug 1773509 is resolved.

Although I don't know your environment, use the following mozconfig file if you try to build Firefox on Linux/riscv64 workstation. See https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/setup/configuring_build_options.html for mozconfig. It spends 8-9 hours on my HiFive Unmatched.

mk_add_options AUTOCLOBBER=1

ac_add_options --enable-application=browser
ac_add_options --disable-debug
ac_add_options --enable-optimize
ac_add_options --disable-tests
ac_add_options --without-wasm-sandboxed-libraries

export CC=gcc
export CXX=g++

At first, this is meta bug (main bug) of Linux/riscv port. But I already merge all patches, so I will close this.

I don't want to talk how to build Firefox in bugzilla since this isn't discussion forum. Please email me or ping me in https://chat.mozilla.org if you want how to.
