If it's not too late, I'd definitely be interested in a discussion around
objtool support for arm64. Specifically, I would very much like us _not_
to have a hard dependency on objtool and instead treat it as a binary
linter of sorts. However, this likely requires help from the toolchain
where some of the jobs which are performed by objtool on x86 today now
need to be done by the compiler/linker for arm64.

I don't have a good handle on exactly what is needed and whether there's
any appetite from the toolchain developers to implement this, so it would
be very helpful to kick that discussion off.

Hi Will, Josh, Julien, and Bill,
Our MC has been formally accepted:

In the bottom right, click "Submit new proposal" then make sure to
select "Toolchains and Kernel" under the Track dropdown.

The Content field will be what's shown to attendees.  We'd like to
close our CFP by August 14th, 2021.

I just submitted something for "objtool on arm64".
