Hi All: Are there anyone who know whether Google has merged this patch in there toolchain release? especially in NDK's compiler( Clang 3.5 and Gcc 4.9 ) . And if so does the flag enable or disable by default?
From our perspective, anyway the flags should be enable by default , that is to say, the compiler should be with this flag by no particularly indicating . Thanks.

Hi Peter, The errata fix can be turned on and off at compile time with the flags -mfix-cortex-a53-835769 and -mno-fix-cortex-a53-835769 it is also possible to turn it on by default when configuring GCC with the configure flag --enable-fix-cortex-a53-835769 (I don't know yet if the decision to turn it on by default in our binary releases was taken or not). The possibility to workaround the hardware bug has to be and remain in the compiler to allow the users that have such a revision of the core to avoid the issue, and it will stay in the compiler even after fixed revisions of the core will be out, for legacy reason.
