(Re-releasing -rc2 as -rc3 since we forgot to update the VERSION file on -rc2)

(Changes since 0.13.0-rc1)

qemu:
    Pull in fix from upstream for TFM:
    target/arm: Use correct SP in M-profile exception

crostool-ng:
    Fix stripping of newlib-nano libs

general:
    Various fixes for building/packaging on MacOS
    Added GitHub CI workflow to build MacOS x86_64 packages

Zephyr SDK 0.13.0-rc1

• general:

  • Added support for ARC64. NOTE: GDB isn't currently supported
    for ARC64.

• qemu:

  • Updated to QEMU 6.0.0
  • Added arc64 support. NOTE: this update ARC support replaces
    the machine (-M simhs) with (-M virt). This change will require
    updates to boards/arc/qemu_arc/board.cmake in Zephyr to match.
  • Pull in fixes from upstream for:
    hw/arm: Fix modelling of SSE-300 TCMs and SRAM

• gcc:

  • Update to gcc 10.3 release
  • Added support for ARC64
  • Removed libgcc transactional memory clone registry support

    variant, which is used with newlib-nano, is now built with
    -fno-exceptions to reduce compiled binary size.

  • Update to yocto 3.2.3 baseline. This is in prep to support building
    qemu-6.0.0
