Hi Wei-cheng, I am not sure I understand the motivation behind your question, but IMO you could send the patches right away if they're ready (which I assume so, from what you wrote). No need to wait after the release of 7.7, also because it will take some time until there... > And since GDB requires bfd/opcodes, we should submit our binutils port > before GDB? What I would do is to contribute the patches at the same time, maybe as part of a patch series, with the first part being directed to binutils, and the other parts to GDB. I'm not a maintainer though, so you may wait some days before you start sending things. Thanks, -- Sergio
