Hi Fredrik,
> Would it be possible to apply the reviewed patch below?
Apologies for the total lack of response from me. Thank-you for your
efforts to get this noticed!
The patch looks OK to me. I didn't see a ChangeLog entry anywhere but
something like the following would be appropriate.
gcc/
* config.gcc: Update with-llsc defaults for MIPS r5900.
I'll do what I can to help you get the various changes done for r5900;
I know there have been attempts before but they faded away for one
reason or another. As Maciej has said, your contribution is really
appreciated, and for this one, it is obvious enough to go in prior to
your FSF copyright assignment coming through.
Maciej: I'm not able to commit this for Fredrik at the moment, would
you mind doing that for him?
Thanks,
Matthew
