== GCC ==

 * Verified status of patches in Linaro 4.6 that might not yet
   be in mainline / Linaro 4.7.  Ported two of Ira's vectorizer
   patches and created merge request.

 * Successfully tested and benchmarked 4.7 version of Richard's
   sched-pressure patch, with similar results as seen on 4.6.
   Rebased branch due to conflicts with recent mainline merge;
   will commit after retesting.

 * Investigated LP #923397 (Broken alignment attribute).  Now
   fixed in FSF mainline and 4.6 branch, will get merged into
   Linaro GCC 4.6 automatically for next release.

 * Ongoing work on a patch to allow memory operands with vec_set
   and vec_extract to avoid excessive vmov generation in the
   PR 51819 test case.

 * Started working on a patch to generate usat/ssat instructions
   where appropriate.


Mit freundlichen Gruessen / Best Regards
