Hi, I would like to thank David Edelsohn for his help during the process of getting Amazon’s contributions to GCC covered by an FSF copyright assignment.
As a first contribution, I would like to create a vendor branch for gcc-7 that will contain back-ported patches for Arm such as -moutline-atomics flag and missing NEON intrinsics. The branch will facilitate integration of these important changes in systems such as Ubuntu 18.04 and Amazon Linux 2 that are still relying on gcc-7. I will ask reviews and recommendations from Arm maintainers for the patches to be integrated in the gcc-7-arm branch. Thanks, Sebastian
