[ACTIVITY] 21-25 Oct 2019

[Christophe Lyon]

== Progress ==
* GCC:
- -mpure-code on v6m: no feedback yet

* FDPIC/GDB
- problems with the board I used, it hangs shortly after or during
boot. None of the workaround/fixes suggested to me worked. Having an
stm32 qemu config would help.

* GCC upstream validation:
- reported several issues

* misc:
- infra fixes / troubleshooting / reviews
- sent 2 small qemu patches (fix vmrs support for m-profile, and add cortex-m7)
- confirmed that gcc LTO profiled bootstrap works on arm with recent
trunk, although it takes ages. Will need to try on a more powerful
board

== Next ==
* Holidays next week, back Nov 4th
* FDPIC: resume work on GDB: check the various qemu forks with stm32
board support.
  Add FDPIC configuration in the GCC trunk validation.
* GCC: pure-code/v6m, handle feedback
* Binutils: support non-contiguous memory regions in linker
