== Progress ==

* Implemented per process hwbreakpoint and watchpoint cache for arm
native targets.
Also added a reference count for per thread hardware breaks. [TCWG-177] [7/10]

* Travelled to Islamabad for Macau visa application. [3/10]

== Plan ==

* Continue work on forking/vforking hardware breakpoints support for arm-native.
Tweak hardware breakpoint cache and thread breaks reference count to
get it in sync with linux-native. [TCWG-177]

* 4 days week (university).

==  Issues ==
* none

== Progress ==

* LRA on AArch32:
  o TCWG-343 : Make LRA the default for the ARM backend (3/10)
- Looking backend places (ARM and AArch64) where reload_in_progress
  is used to verify if lra_in_progress is needed as well: Tested lot of
  configurations, testsuite results analysis ongoing.

  o TCWG-345 : Analyse performance of LRA for ARM. (0/10)
- No progress this week.

* GMP library AArch64 port review: (4/10)
  o Analyzing code generated from C generic implementation vs assembly.

* Misc. (1/10)
  o Various meetings.

== Next ==
* Child care (chickenpox)
* Still some time spend at university
* Continue on LRA and lib GMP

[Activity] 20 Jan - 24 Jan 2014

2014-01-27 Thread Venkataramanan Kumar
== Progress ==
* Libc probes support for Aarch64 (2/10).
Wrote a small patch for setjmp and longjmp LIBC probe.
Requested "will newton" to test them .

*  Investigate "PGO" for Aarch64 (3/10).
Bootstap testing GCC with  PGO for GCC.
Stage 2, feedback profile in progress.

Ran coremark on foundation model with PGO.
The benchmark builds with profile-generate and runs.
"gcda" files are generated and uses them to profile.
Profile generated runs does not run cleanly.
Cross checking if the generated profile is valid.

*  Resubmmited libssp machine description support in GCC  (2/10).

* Cbuild2 discussed with rob, ryan on SYSROOT installation while building (1/10)
cross compiler for aarch64. "SYSROOT" is expected to be in
/opt/linaro, but cbuild2 does not do this by default.

Misc (1/10)
-
AMD internal meetings and did some investigations

== Plan ==
- Run EMBCC benchmarks with -PGO enabled.
- Follow up upstream libssp GCC discussions.

[ACTIVITY] 20 - 24 January 2014

2014-01-27 Thread Christophe Lyon
== Progress ==
- releases (3/10)
  * GCC 4.7 and 4.8 releases done
  * more cbuild2 feedback

- cross-validations (2/10)
  * followup
  * adding capability to test a patch over a given revision on several
targets/cpu/fpu/runtestflags

- libsanitizer on AArch64 (3/10)
  * most tests are now functional
  * still some errors in the GCC testsuite, to be analyzed (there are
some timeouts, too despite using SSH multiplexing to the Foundation
model)

- misc (2/10): conf-calls and meetings

== Next ==
- libsanitizer on AArch64: analyze errors, try QEMU

== Future ==
On sick leave starting Feb 11th
