Sorry to be a bit slow, but we just decided to skip this current glibc release for rv32i and instead focus on getting the 32-bit ABI nice and clean for the next release. Thus we in RISC-V land are OK with taking these changes to the 32-bit kernel ABI. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
