== 64 bit atomics ==
* Submitted patches to gcc patch list
- One comment back already asking if we should really change ARM
to have a VDSO to make checks of the user helper version easier
* Added thumb ldrexd/strexd to valgrind; patch added to bug in their
bugtracker (KDE bug 266035)
* Came to the conclusion eglibc doesn't actually need any changes
- It's got a place holder for a 64bit routine, but it's unused and
isn't exposed to the libc users
- Note that neither eglibc or glibc built cleanly from the trunk on ARM.
* Started digging into QEmu a bit more to find out how to solve the
helper problem
== String routines ==
* Added SPEC2k6 string routine results to my charts; while most
stuff is in the noise it seems
the bionic routine is a bit slower overall than everything else, and
my absolutely trivially simple
~5 instruction loop is a tie for the fastest with my smarter 4
byte/loop using uadd.
== Next week ==
* Sleep, Rest, Relaxation, getting older
* (Will be polling email for any more follow ups on my gcc patches)
