Xtensa got upstream support, but so many embedd vendors seem to want to double dip and sell build tools, so they don't upstream their llvm based build tools. Shortsighted imo. Vendors that don't charge for build tools will make it up in sales volume.
- cozzyd 4y agoVendors not upstreaming their llvm-based build tools is exactly why you should support a GPL compiler like gcc.
- moltonel3x 4y agoGPL doesn't force upstreaming, just making the sources available. Plenty of small vendors are not upstreaming their gcc patches. It's more a question of man-hours than of license.
