[PATCH FOR-NEXT] riscv: Add norvc after .option arch in runtime const
Posted by Charlie Jenkins 8 months, 3 weeks ago
.option arch clobbers .option norvc. Prevent gas from emitting
compressed instructions in the runtime const alternative blocks by
setting .option norvc after .option arch. This issue starts appearing on
gcc 15, which adds zca to the march.

Hey Charlie,

Could ".option arch,+zba,-c" be used as well ? That way, c is treated
like any other arch option. Or does norvc has other side effects ?

Thanks,

Clément

There's some clunkiness around ".option arch" and ".option rvc".  So 
this might be an assembler bug, but IMO it's sane to just work around it 
in Linux -- at a bare minimum it'll manifest for users, as binutils 
already released (and GCC 15 is just enabling the Kconfig that triggers 
the bug).

There shouldn't be a newline here, I'll just drop it.
