[ACTIVITY] report week ending 17 Mar
Progress: * UM-2 [QEMU upstream maintainership] - went through and made estimates for a pile of JIRA tasks relating to implementing features we're missing to get to ARMv9.4 - diagnosed why --enable-werror wasn't affecting warnings from the kerneldoc docs generator, and sent a patch fixing it - some bug triage, looking for issues that ought to be fixed for 8.0 - fixed a division-by-zero bug in the cadence UART model - fixed a documentation markup mistake that made the docs look odd - investigating/fixing some more CI failures - minor bits of travel/conference related admin -- PMM ___ linaro-toolchain mailing list -- linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org To unsubscribe send an email to linaro-toolchain-le...@lists.linaro.org
[ACTIVITY] Report for week #11
Hello, [GNU-796] Stabilize GDB testsuite results in the CI: - Finished implementing ABE's support for rerunning failed tests using Maxim's idea of leveraging validate_failures.py to determine which tests need to be rerun. Submitted v3 and v4 versions, and committed v4. - Investigated why tcwg-abet-tested jobs have been failing in the CI. Found out that Jenkins sets a bogus core.hooksPath in the git repo config. Submitted and merged a gerrit request fixing the problem. - Investigated why cross-build gdbserver needs GMP and MPFR (and is thus failing to build) in tcwg-gnu-build jobs. Submitted Gerrit review request to fix it. - Started looking into why re-enabling GDB testsuite parallelism makes it run fewer tests. -- Thiago ___ linaro-toolchain mailing list -- linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org To unsubscribe send an email to linaro-toolchain-le...@lists.linaro.org

This seems to be related to my change to the toplevel makefiles. Are you just building gdbserver only or gdb too? What are the configure options that is being passed here?

What are the configure > options that is being passed here? Indeed it is related. We build GDB and gdbserver but do so as separate builds, so in practice we do build gdbserver only. The fix I am applying is to use the '--disable-gdb' configure flag. >From my commit message: This became necessary since binutils-gdb commit 991180627851 ("Use toplevel configure for GMP and MPFR for gdb"), which made the top-level configure script require GMP and MPFR to build GDB. Later, commit 5fb0e3085771 ("configure: remove dependencies on gmp and mpfr when gdb is disabled") removed this requirement when the --disable-gdb option is passed. As for the configure options, they are: .../binutils-gdb.git~gdb-13-branch/configure SHELL=/bin/bash \ --with-gnu-ld --enable-plugins --enable-tui \ --with-pkgversion=Linaro_GDB-2023.03.17 --disable-gas \ --disable-binutils --disable-elfcpp --disable-ld --disable-gold \ --disable-gprof --with-python=python3 --disable-shared \ --enable-static --build=aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu \ --host=aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu --prefix=/some/prefix/usr \ --disable-gdb The last one was added just now. -- Thiago ___ linaro-toolchain mailing list -- linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org To unsubscribe send an email to linaro-toolchain-le...@lists.linaro.org
