For this to achieve a small patch to the GCC will - be helpful. Therefore minor GCC knowledge would be beneficial. -* Implementation can be initially done in QEMU and improved on different - mainboards and platforms - -### Mentors -* Werner Zeh <werner.zeh@gmx.net> - ## Port payloads to ARM, AArch64 or RISC-V While we have a rather big set of payloads for x86 based platforms, all other architectures are rather limited.
