Hi Team,
I have a query regarding ARM GCC:-
1. If any bug occurs in ARM GCC, is it reported under the official GCc bug
tracking system?
2. If it is not reported there, is there any available bug list or
documentation for known issues?
Your guidance on this would be highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards
Manoj
Are you are talking about the "Arm GNU Toolchain" heavily used by
embedded developers, found here?
<https://developer.arm.com/Tools%20and%20Software/GNU%20Toolchain>
The page "Support and training" has the list of contact information, bug
report systems, etc., for various parts of the toolchain. Basically,
ARM pay Linaro to handle the packaging and builds, so anything related
to that gets reported to them. The compiler, assembler, debugger and
libraries are all taken directly from the open source projects. So if
there is an issue with the compiler itself, that is for GCC. As always
for these things, search the bug trackers and mailing list archives
before filing any new issues. And if you want to post on a GCC mailing
list, the correct list is "gcc-help" for help with GCC (this list is for
discussions about gcc development, rather than usage).
If you got the toolchain as part of a toolset, development kit, SDK or
IDE from a microcontroller manufacturer, it can also help to report
issues to them on their forums. It is common that manufacturer's
toolchains are slightly behind the latest versions from Arm's page, and
Arm's builds are behind the mainline GCC development. It does not help
if you report bugs to GCC if the GCC developers have already fixed them
- your aim instead is to bug the supplier into updating their tools.
