I did not see any response, but now noticed the designated MIPS maintainer Matthew Fortune (per gcc/MAINTAINERS) was not on copy. The first line is a bit long; can you please wrap? The note on hard-float targets does not seem completely clear to me: I understand it requires glibc 2.31, but per the language it still may not enabled by default even if in that case? What is the situation on the default in the hard-float case? If believe you do not have commit access, but if you share an updated patch I can apply for you. Geral

What is the > situation on the default in the hard-float case? It retains the original behavior of not using GNU-stack notes at all. You have to use --with-glibc-version=2.31 in all stages of gcc build to enable GNU-stack note usage. > > If believe you do not have commit access, but if you share an updated > patch I can apply for you. > > Geral >
