Yes, I know about this port. I am working with AVR compiler people on IRA problems and getting a very good feedback from them.

The GCC RMs would like to see IRA in 4.4. I have the action item to post a message about how we hope the process will work, and I plan to do that later today. However, I wanted to respond quickly since it seems that part of the question in this thread is how likely IRA is to be in 4.4.


Thanks,

thanks, that clarifies a lot. Steven and i will focus on getting the rest of the libcalls out. I will get the byte scanning working but will not pursue the patches to global and local.
