== Progress == Holiday [3/10] Post-indexed addressing for NEON on Aarch64 - TCWG-430 [3/10] * needs much more work than for ARM Revisited apparent NEON scheduling problem in libvpx - TCWG-429 [2/10] * it transpires that this was an incorrect analysis * the assembler code didn't conform to the ABI * upstream has now fixed this Received review for division patch - TCWG-293 [2/10] * needs a rewrite ___ linaro-toolchain mailing list linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-toolchain

[ACTIVITY] Week 19
== Progress== Holiday [2/10] Fixing performance bugs in lowlevellock - TCWG-435 [4/10] * Initial patch for lowlevellock.h largely done, awaiting an aarch64 test run * About 1/2 of the lowlevellock.h's remain post-patch, need to ask some questions about them cortex-strings memset - TCWG-156 [1/10] * Fixed an alternative implementation, a little more benchmarking investigation cbuild benchmarking branch [1/10] * Hunting for correct benchmark source, added a little more error checking Meetings/mail/etc [2/10] == Plan == More of the same - * Post lowlevellock.h patch and ask some questions * Finish exploring memset alternatives and work out how to benchmark them * Carry on with cbuild benchmarking branch Holiday 26th - 30th May ___ linaro-toolchain mailing list linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-toolchain
