Release 2.20.1 - Last call

Release 2.20.1 - Last call

[Tristan Gingold]

Hi,

I plan to do the 2.20.1 release very soon.  If you have a patch to be back-ported, please speak up now.

AFAIK, there is still a patch to adjust the ARM baseline for ld.  Ping ping ping!

Thanks,
Tristan.

    Hi Tristan,

  So, since you posted this, we've had PR11280 show up, which is a regression
of 2.20 against 2.19.

refs:  http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2010-02/threads.html#00111
       http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11280
Patch: http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2010-02/msg00315.html

  Did the barriers go down yet?  It's liveable-with if they did, but if you're
still hanging out for ARM patches, I reckon this should go on the branch too.

    cheers,
      DaveK

Yes, I am still hanging out for some ARM patches, so you can apply it.

Thanks,
Tristan.

Re: Release 2.20.1 - second last call

Hi,

this is now a long story !

I planed to do this release in January, then in February but there were still some pending issues on some
targets.

I think that now there are no pending patches.  Ramana, can you confirm that for your part ?

Again, please speak up if you have patch to be submitted / back-ported.

I do not plan to do the release this week (I am short of time), but I could start next week.

Thank you to everyone,
Tristan.

Hi Tristan,

Matt backported the last patch that we needed to do for the ARM port after fixing 
the objdump breakage. I'm not aware of any other patches that need to be backported 
for the ARM port. Hence it's a go from my end. 

Cheers
Ramana

thanks.  The regression suite looks ok on arm-eabi.
