[llvm-dev] [Release-testers] 12.0.1-rc1 release has been tagged

[Yvan Roux via llvm-dev]

Hi,

For ARM, we still have the known cfi failures and one unexpected pass on
(CodeGen/sanitize-coverage.c) seen on 12.0.0
and mentionned in https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46117

There is also https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50481 which was
introduced into 12.0.0 and has a proposed fix
(https://reviews.llvm.org/D103167) which I think would be nice to have
included in this release.

AArch64 are good, binaries uploaded:
