Re: [gofrontend-dev] Re: libgo patch committed: Add precise stack scan support

Cherry, see

https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2018-12/msg02240.html

still shows ~180 test failures on ARM32.  Sorry, no access to an ARM32 box until
next year.

The only place the new code can cause abort on all programs that I can think of is in the runtime startup code, probestackmaps, which calls value_size, which aborts due to an unhandled case. I haven't been able to try out on an ARM machine, but I managed to cross-compile a Go program and visually inspect the exception table. The type table's encoding is DW_EH_PE_absptr, which is indeed not handled, which will cause abort.
