Here is a summary with the list of regressions:
https://ci.linaro.org/job/tcwg_gnu_embed_check_gcc--master-thumb_m55_hard_eabi-build/209/artifact/artifacts/notify/regressions.sum/*view*/

I thought you'd be able to find your way in the logs above, the .0
files contain the logs of the initial full testsuite run, and .1 ones
contain the logs of the second run of the testsuite, restricted to the
.exp files where we detected regressions. So looking at gcc.log.1.xz
will give you details of the regressions shown in the link above.
