Is there an upstream bug report/thread for this? It would be useful to
at least make the appropriate ARM maintainers aware of the problem so
if they're interested enough or see value in it they can deal with it
and then it can be enabled later.
Can you please also make sure any arm specific bugs are linked against
ARMTracker, I can't escalate unknown issues to contacts I have with in
relevant organisations if I don't know they exist, and it's impossible
to track all bugs.
This is unfortunate, but I don't think the lack of upstream
support on
armhfp should block this feature for all other architectures (including
aarch64).
I think that's a reasonable compromise, if/when it gets fixed upstream
we can always enable it then and it'll get applied with the next mass
rebuild.
