This is a funny one.  It shouldn't really be in the Linaro GCC queue.
I've been leaving it as New and ignoring it.

Matthias, any thoughts?

Åsa, I think we're ready to spawn benchmark jobs through the build
farm.  I've made a front end:
 http://ex.seabright.co.nz/helpers/scheduler/spawn

to make it a little easier to use.  To spawn a benchmark run, enter a
job called benchmarks- such as
benchmarks-gcc-linaro-4.6+bzr106857~rsandifo~alt-sched-pressure-4.6
and spawn it into the 'test' queue.  See the page for how to change
the flags and benchmarks that are run.

The results end up at:
 http://ex.seabright.co.nz/benchmarks/

which needs the password from:
 https://wiki.linaro.org/Internal/ToolChain

I've spawned Ulrich's job into the queue as a test run.  Let's see how
it goes.  If it works, you can spawn the ancestor
(benchmarks-gcc-linaro-4.6+bzr106856) and later do a diffbench on the
results.

QEMU A15 guest writeup

2012-01-24 Thread Michael Hope
Peter, could you review:
 https://wiki.linaro.org/WorkingGroups/ToolChain/QEMUARMGuestQ411

please?  I'm interesting in anything I've missed or exaggerated.  The
audience is the TSC or people outside Linaro who are interested in a
summary of the changes.
