I don't see any mention of a fix to the compiler saving more registers
than required when entering an interrupt routine. Its like it completely
forgot about the EABI.

[Peter Bigot]

Thanks for the update.

Please note the mspgcc-users mailing list has historically had a maximum
message length of 40 kB, and does not allow attachments.  A couple of your
messages have exceeded this limit and I've passed them through, but that's
why you may see delays on your postings.

Also may I suggest TI make the effort to rebase the next compiler release
on gcc 5.2 since that was released last July (three months after 5.1).  I
don't know if they have a 5.3 coming up before you expect your version to
be out, but you might want to coordinate with the GNU folks on that.

Re: [Mspgcc-users] New MSP430 GCC version release available!

[Ghannouchi, Youssef]

Hello GCC-enthusiasts,

I have seen some questions and feedbacks related to the email below and I would 
like to clarify some points.

1.   Versioning

a.   The MSP430 GCC standalone package is container which has its own 
version. The latest version is v3.5.0.0. Please refer to versioning scheme for 
the package described below.

b.  The MSP430 GCC standalone package has a software manifest included in 
the package (attached also GCC_14r1_manifest.pdf) which describe in details all 
sub components and their version.

c.   The package contains:

   i.  GGC 4.9.1

 ii.  GDB 7.5.0

iii.  binutils 
2.23

   iv.  Tcl 8.4.1

 v.  MSP430 
Debug Stack 3.5.1.1

   vi.  MSP430 
Support Files 1.173

  vii.  MSP430 GDB 
Agent 6.0.14.5



2.   MSP430 GCC 5.1

a.   The MSP430 GCC standalone package v3.5.0.0 uses the GCC 4.9.1. The 
purpose of this package was to give a quick update on GCC compiler including 
the latest bug fixes to allow our customers continuing their development easily.

b.  We are working on preparing an MSP430 compiler based on GCC 5.1. This 
package is expected to be released by end of this year. I will keep  informed.


Thank you for the valuable feedbacks, we really appreciate it.
We would like to continue improving MSP430 GCC offer, so please feel free to 
send any suggestions or recommendations.
For better tracking and handling please use TI e2e 
community to submit your requests.
