I think it is appropriate. The actual work and scope may need to be refined a little more, based on what you find is already supported vs what does not work. But, to get a suite of llvm/clang "recipes" in RSB to build targets is a good first step, and then adding some of the sanitizer/fuzzer on top is a great extension. > > > > Looking forward to hear! > > > > > > Thanks & Regards, > > > Prateek Pardeshi > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > > devel mailing list > > > devel@rtems.org > > > http://lists.rtems.org/mailman/listinfo/devel > > _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@rtems.org http://lists.rtems.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
