+p. The Linaro Toolchain Working Group (TCWG) is pleased to announce the 2017.11-rc1 stable Release-Candidate of the Linaro GCC 7 source package.
 
 p. The GCC 7 series introduced an ABI change for ARM targets by fixing a bug (present since GCC 5, see link below) that affects conformance to the procedure call standard (AAPCS).  The bug affects some C++ code where class objects are passed by value to functions and could result in incorrect or inconsistent code being generated. If the option -Wpsabi is enabled (on by default) the compiler will emit a diagnostic note for code that might be affected by this ABI change.
