* 2 days week (university & child care).

==  Issues ==
* none

== Progress ==

* LRA on AArch32:
  o TCWG-343 : Make LRA the default for the ARM backend (0/10)
- No progress this week

  o TCWG-345 : Analyse performance of LRA for ARM. (1/10)
- Configured and ran benchmarks on Cortex-a15.

* Looked at Linaro 4.8 release performance on Cortex-a15. (2/10)

* Misc. (1/10)
  o Booked Hotel and flight for connect

== Next ==
* Back on LRA and lib GMP

The kernel has lots of these errors, but disables the warning explicitly:

# disable pointer signed / unsigned warnings in gcc 4.0
KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call cc-disable-warning, pointer-sign)

[ACTIVITY] 27-31 Januery 2014

2014-02-03 Thread Christophe Lyon
* Libsanitizer for AArch64: (4/10)
  - seems to be mostly working, but trouble with validation both using
the Foundation Model and qemu-aarch64.
  - Some tests seems to loop forever while unwinding under qemu, but
run fine under the Foundation model
  - Conversely the Foundation Model shows some random errors, and the
corresponding tests pass under qemu
  - Some random timeouts with the Foundation Model, despite using ssh
multiplexing
  - Added a small patch to qemu to hande missing mmap flag. Need to
send upstream.
  - asked Rob to run GCC testsuite with my patch on AArch64 but it's
too unstable these days

* Cross-validation (2/10)
  - script now able to validate a GCC patch and compare results with
unmodified GCC trunk
  - added arm-none-eabi target
  - using qemu-aarch64 for aarch64-none-linux-gnueabi but the
validations now time out. Need investigation, but I might have to
revert to no execution for this target.
  - identified a problem with the recent armv7-ve patch

* Benchmarks: (1/10)
  - collecting data for 4.8 tables

* Peeling: (1/10)
  - backported new vectorizer cost model to check it if's OK to
include it in our next release

* Misc (2/10): conf-calls, meetings, docs (howtos for TCWG)

== Next ==
* libsanitizer on AArch64
* fix cross-validation on aarch64-none-linux-gnu
* benchmarks: complete table
* backports: chek new vectorizer cost model, monthly branch merge,
review Michael's backports of Crypto intrinsics

I'm not sure why you are seeing this error but I'm not, but I committed
a cast that should fix it.
