Thank you for looking into it. > Why is arch/hexagon/ in the tree if no one can build it? Removing it sounds reasonable to me, it's been broken for too long, and we did the same thing for unicore32 that was in the same situation where the gcc port was too old to build the kernel and the clang port never quite work in mainline. Guenter also brought up the issue a year ago, and nothing happened. I see Brian still occasionally sends an Ack to a patch that gets merged through another tree, but he has not send any patches or pull requests himself after taking over maintainership from Richard Kuo in 2019, and the four hexagon pull requests after 2014 only contained build fixes from developers that don't have access to the hardware (Randy Dunlap, Viresh Kumar, Mike Frysinger and me).
