    Firefox 90 On POWER (And A JIT Progress Report)
    [07:40] -TechBytesBot/#techbytes- ( status 404 @ https://www.talospace.com/2021/07/firefox-90-on-power-and-jit-progress.html">Firefox ) [07:40] schestowitz

    Unfortunately, a promising OpenPOWER-specific update for Fx90 bombed. Ordinarily I would have noticed this with my periodic smoke-test builds but I've been trying to continue work on the JavaScript JIT in my not-so-copious spare time (more on that in a moment), so I didn't notice this until I built Fx90 and no TLS connection would work (they all abort with SSL_ERROR_BAD_SERVER). I discussed this with Dan Hork and the [07:40] schestowitz official Fedora build of Firefox seemed to work just fine, including when I did a local fedpkg build. After a few test builds over the last several days I determined the difference was that the Fedora Firefox package is built with --use-system-nss to use the NSS included with Fedora, so it wasn't using whatever was included with Firefox.
