Bastian said it was generating invalid code for some parts of the kernel on s390x, and I relayed that to you then. He says this is unfixed. I expect that x86, arm*, arm64, and powerpc* kernels have been well- tested with gcc 4.9. Out of our release architectures, that would leave mips and mipsel as unknown.

Bug#691576: [reverse-bisected] GDB stops with SIGTRAP at 0 address fixed with GCC 4.8
Hi, Please have a look at upstream bug report: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=61799 I was asked to test GCC 4.8 and found this issue go away with locally-recompiled GCC 4.8.2 (upstream source, as ia64 is no more supported by Debian). Whether this was expected or not, I don't know. Feel free to discuss more in details with ia64/GCC gurus in upstream bug.
