== Progress == - cbuild2 benchmarking - Done the initial frame work (just with one benchmark) and sent out for review - 64bit division for ARMv7-A - Posted the patch and added target hook documentation required == Plan == - Address zero/extension review comments - post 64bit divide patch with the required documentation - investigative bootstrapping issues - still waiting for h/w access ___ linaro-toolchain mailing list linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-toolchain
[ACTIVITY] Week 47
== Issues == * None. == Progress == * Commit the patch to support S2 system register in AARCH64 GAS. * Identify the issue files in parallel build fail (PR57683) and backport r197467 and r198999 to FSF GCC 4.8. * Verify Linaro crosstool-ng to make sure Fortran is supported in all builds. * Try PGO build for ifcombine heuristics. But got "the control flow of function .. does not match its profile data". * Investigate loop-invariant heuristics and rtx cost to select SYMBOL_REF. But tests did not show performance gain. * Investigate Coremark conditional compare issue in Cortext-M since the BRANCH_COST is 1. == Plan == * Continue on CCMP. * Discuss ifcombine heuristics with upstream. == Planed leaves == * Dec 3 & 5: Annual leaves ___ linaro-toolchain mailing list linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-toolchain
[ACTIVITY] 18-22 Nov 2013
== Progress == - libssp gcc - Posted RFC patch to community. Addressing gcc/glibc compatibility issues. - libssp glibc - Working on exporting stack_chk_guard in Aarch64 along with TLS stack guard support. == Plan == - post RFC patches (version 2) for glibc and gcc libssp ___ linaro-toolchain mailing list linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-toolchain
[Activity Nov 18-24
== Progress == * Created 32 bit chroots on all 6 TCWG build machines, did test toolchain builds via Cbuildv2, including a Canadian cross. I tested the win32 executables with wine and they work. * Setup all 6 TCWG build farm chromebooks to be able to do native builds and run tests with Cbuildv2. * Multiple discussions with LAVA team about Jenkins, Gerrit, LAVA, and GIT repositories. We need to have LAVA & Jenkins installed on our new x86_64 build machines in a way they can do builds in a 32 bit chroot. * Got Gerrit working with GCC and Cbuildv2 GIT repositories on staging.git.linaro.org, and merge requests ala 'git review' now work and can get approved. (Thanks to Milo) * Got the GCC git repository on staging to be in sync with upstream finally, as it wasn't auto updating. (Thanks to Milo) * Modified Cbuildv2 to get the host and build architectures right when building in a 32 bit chroot on a 64 bit build machine. * Fixed other weird issues in Cbuildv2 when building in a 32 bit chroot on an x86_64 platform. * Started process to get Kugan access to the APM board for benchmarking. * Got Jenkins doing builds and test runs on the new TCWG build machines. == Plan == * Get back to remote chromebook testing support for build machines. * Debug why 32 bit binary tarballs made in a chroot won't run when installed on an x86_64 system. * Probably more TCWG build farm admin issues. ___ linaro-toolchain mailing list linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-toolchain
[ACTIVITY] 18 - 22 November 2013
== Progress == * GDB ARM Process Record: - Completed work on arm process record Advance SIMD, vfp and coprocessor instruction recording. - Submitted initial patch for SIMD. VFP and coprocessor instruction decoding. - Resubmitted previous patches after incorporating suggestions. - Resolved patch line wrap issues and formating issues. * Macau visa and travel planning * Got started with using concur == Plan == * GDB ARM Process Record: - Follow up on previous patches. - Test VFP, SIMD and other advance instruction types recording. - Fix issues and submit their fixes if any. * Run GDB testsuite in various configurations and analyze failures. ___ linaro-toolchain mailing list linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-toolchain
