The normal toolchain process is that patches get added to our releases only if they are already upstream. Our releases are FSF releases plus patches backported from mainline, with no local changes except when absolutely unavoidable.
It is commit 451133cefa upstream.
Please consider merging for the next toolchain release. I don't expect major conflicts if any.
Hi Adhemerval,
FAOD, are you planning to merge this feature into linaro's 2.25 or 2.24 branch?
My [very light] preference is to merge it to 2.25, but not 2.24.
Thanks,
Do we need it to 2.24? Is this patch preventing current kernel builds for older binutils releases?
Current kernels are fine without it. My work on kernel tinification requires it though. Depending on when this work will be ready for wider consumption, it would be nice if our binutils already carried the necessary support.
I don't know what the 2.24 vs 2.25 release timeline is, but if 2.25 is released, say, before next Connect then it should be good enough.
