> Hi please, consider.
> 
> As ziccif require instructions to natural aligned to be atomic the 4 byte post call nop must be aligned.
> But I don't want to add a c.nop(2b) to align the nop(4b) which means the jal(r) must also be algined.
> As we have no utility to aligned the end of an instruction sequence the call it self is aligned and uses only 4 byte instructions. Only in the case where we could use an two c-instruction we may loose space.

> Thanks, Robbin
