== Last Week ==

* Started writing libunwind support for ARM-specific unwinding, but
realized that the native ARM toolchain may be causing problems. Spent time
trying to isolate the issues, but haven't found the culprit yet.

* Began to consider the possibility of developing an ARM-specific
unwinding library which would integrate into libunwind (and be reusable
elsewhere). Basically, the ARM.ex{idx,tbl} sections are unique to ARM.

* Looked at other applications where unwinding functionality already
exists to see how ARM unwinding is done (e.g. GDB).
Could/should that functionality be replaced with calls to libunwind (or
to the aforementioned ARM-specific helper library)?

== This Week ==

* Continue to implement ARM-specific unwinding in libunwind.
