[Activity] Week 14

[Zhenqiang Chen]

Summary:
* Revise the patch for relocatable NLS support.
* Code size benchmark analysis.

Details:
1. Revise the patch for relocatable NLS support: lp:918926.
  * Read the gcc configure and makefile.
  * It seams hard to get the relative dir if the gcc is configured
with --bindir=... --datadir/datarootdir. E.g.
     --bindir=/opt/bin
     --datarootdir=/tmp/data
2. Code size benchmark analysis with -Os
  * Investigate regression in small cases.
3. Try to build linaro gcc trunk with crosstool-ng. But it reports
error when configuring libquadmath.
  * configure:9829: error: Link tests are not allowed after GCC_NO_EXECUTABLES.
  * Manual check or a simple case show libc.so can be linked.

Plans:
* Tuning optimization heuristics for -Os

Planed leaves:
* April 9 - 11: Vacations

Best regards!
