Thank you Jonathan,
This patch is similar to the one that we had last year for armv9.6.

jthackray requested review from CarolineConcatto, Lukacma, amilendra, kmclaughlin-arm and rgwott October 13, 2025 09:38

jthackray marked this pull request as ready for review October 13, 2025 09:40

llvmbot added clang Clang issues not falling into any other category backend:ARM backend:AArch64 clang:driver 'clang' and 'clang++' user-facing binaries. Not 'clang-cl' clang:frontend Language frontend issues, e.g. anything involving "Sema" labels Oct 13, 2025
