Tried to join the meeting, but it ended early apparently.

Using in Debian and Ubuntu binutils 2.38, I see then with GCC 11.2 warnings for
every link:

/usr/bin/ld: warning: /usr/lib/gcc/riscv64-linux-gnu/10/crtn.o: mis-matched ISA
version 2.0 for 'i' extension, the output version is 2.1
/usr/bin/ld: warning: /usr/lib/gcc/riscv64-linux-gnu/10/crtn.o: mis-matched ISA
version 2.0 for 'a' extension, the output version is 2.1
/usr/bin/ld: warning: /usr/lib/gcc/riscv64-linux-gnu/10/crtn.o: mis-matched ISA
version 2.0 for 'f' extension, the output version is 2.2
/usr/bin/ld: warning: /usr/lib/gcc/riscv64-linux-gnu/10/crtn.o: mis-matched ISA
version 2.0 for 'd' extension, the output version is 2.2

Are there any plans to backport the support for ISA 2.1/2.2 to GCC 11? Or do we
need to configure binutils to use 2.0 until the compiler is changed to GCC 12?

There's also no documentation about that change, at least in binutils. Should
that be mentioned in the release notes?

Thanks, Matthias
