Hi Jim, Victor
Thanks for your reply.
Please check: https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-7/changes.html , it says, start to added -march=armv8.2-a. Does it mean gcc-6.2 NOT support this option?
So does the 'gcc-linaro-6.2.1-2016.11' add the same option? However, the release comes from gcc-6.2. I am a little confused? Does this release fully support aarch64 (ignore some bug fix)? If yes, this should be one good choice for the customer. Thanks.

Thanks for the information. I have checked the release notes which says GCC 6.2 NO support on v8.2-A. So I would like to know when will v8.2-A support would be added? Or the Linaro member could get the internal release for that (Just guess)? Thanks
It looks like the v8.2 support was complete in the FSF sources in Sept 2016, backported to Linaro sources in Oct 2016, and is present in gcc-linaro-6.2.1-2016.11 and later releases.
