* Analysis of PR61411 (CARD-341) [2/10] * Attempted to analyse VP8 decode performance on Aarch64 vs Aarch32 (TCWG-?) [6/10] . took a while to find compatible libvpx source and compilers :( . can't find a good way to profile on Aarch64, perf is broken, gprof results look implausible * Misc [2/10] ___ linaro-toolchain mailing list linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-toolchain

=Progress= memset performance improvement - TCWG-156 [2/10] * Bugfixed/improved cortex-strings-bench-on-lava memcpy regression on A9 - TCWG-390 [6/10] * Scanned through lots of data * Learned some perf and some streamline * Still don't know what's going on here lowlevellock performance bugs - TCWG-435 [0/10] * Stalled until someone reacts to my pings Meetings/mail/etc [2/10] * Including some questions about whether we need softfloat support in binary releases =Plan= Keep prodding at memcpy with perf/streamline Explore repeatability of cortex-strings benchmark See how much quicker I can make cortex-strings benchmark without compromising repeatability Possibly try out a bare metal version of (a subset of) cortex-strings benchmark ___ linaro-toolchain mailing list linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-toolchain

== Progress == * AArch64 GDB reverse watchpoints issues. [TCWG-503] [6/10] -- Proposed a fix which failed testing now working on an alternate fix in gdb process record target implementation. * Further progress on AArch64 GDB handling of functions with empty prologue. [TCWG-504] [2/10] -- Analysed different type of obj files and how they are being handled by gdb. * Investigate and improve ARM gdb frame unwinding [TCWG-157] [1/10] -- Try to reproduce reported bugs. * Miscellaneous [1/10] -- Setting up gdb remote testing with hackboxes. -- Meetings etc. == Plan == * AArch64 GDB reverse watchpoints issue. [TCWG-503] -- Figure out a new fix in gdb process record implementation, test it and then justify it. * AArch64 GDB handling of functions with empty prologue. [TCWG-504] -- Further investigation. ___ linaro-toolchain mailing list linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-toolchain
