Bug#1036158: gcc-13: Please raise baseline for alpha to EV56

[John Paul Adrian Glaubitz <glaubitz@physik.fu-berlin.de>]

Source: gcc-13
Version: 13.1.0-2
Severity: normal
User: debian-alpha@lists.debian.org
Usertags: alpha
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-alpha@lists.debian.org

Hello!

After a long discussion on IRC and the mailing list, we have agreed to raise the
baseline for the alpha architecture to EV56 to improve the generated code and fix
a number of issues. The change is already being implemented in the glibc packages
which switches to EV56 [1] since hwcaps are no longer available with glibc 2.37 [2].

Could you raise the baseline for gcc on alpha to EV56?

I assume, it should be "--with-cpu=ev56" or "--with-arch=ev56".

Thanks,
Adrian
