Re: [PATCH v2 1/2] binutils, gas, ld: Disable SFrames for some tests
Jan Beulich reviews a patch intended to disable SFrame tests in binutils, gas, and ld. The discussion revolves around the correct placement and necessity of disabling SFrames, particularly in test cases. Beulich questions an unconditional setting of --gsframe=no and the purpose of disabling SFrames in a test designed to check for undue ‘upgrade’ to SFrames.
