== Progress ==
* spec2k comparison between ARM and x86
- Initiated discussion and addressing the feedback
- Looking at register allocation (IRA + Reload) for reduced test
case and comparing with x86
- Analysed few more spec2k benchmarks
* Back-porting
- All the back ports are checked and reviewed. Thanks Yvan.
== Plan ==
* Continue with spec2k comparison between ARM and x86
* Wiki Cleanup
== Progress ==
* More work on Jenkins/Cbuildv2 integration.
* Finished reviewing all 81 wiki pages I had to review.
* Added a 'dryrun' option to Cbuildv2 that displays all configure
and make command lines without executing them as a learning aid.
* Added 'make check' to toolchain builds via Jenkins/Cbuildv2.
* Added a simple "Hello World" test case in C++ to toolchain builds
in Cbuildv2 to make sure the fresh build minimally works.
* Added several more sections to the Cbuildv2 Usage wiki page.
* Cbuildv2 can now downloads and builds several projects/ (QT, GTK,
etc...) as a toolchain test.
* Got the LAVA team to make many tweaks to Jenkins and other stuff
to support TCWG needs for Cbuildv2. Now Jenkins does a toolchain
build of all supported architectures for each commit to GCC
upstream.
* Two small wildland fires this week, plus 3 motorcycle accidents.
== Plan ==
* More work on binary releases via Cbuildv2.
* Import test results into Jenkins.
* Continued work on Jenkins/Cbuildv2 integration.
== Issues ==
* Libmudflap, needs -ldl, or make check fails when linking with
--as-needed (used on Ubuntu by default).
* On chromebook using a raring chroot, 'make check' for mpfr has
these three test cases: tasinh, tcot, and tcsc which consume all the
memory and hang when run with the other infrastructure libraries via
Cbuildv2. The ttan and tsinh tests segfault, and tgamma return an
incorrect result. These same test cases all pass if I use Cbuildv2
to only build and test mpfr. Weird...
== Progress ==
* GDB Record and Replay (TCWG-197)
Wrote instruction type decoder code for ARM Thumb32 instructions.
Wrote stub handlers for different type of Thumb32 instructions.
Wrote process record handlers for various type of load/store instruction.
Wrote a testing utility to test record and replay instruction decoding code.
* Visa Application
Received email notifcation for UK visa issuance for upcoming trip to Cambridge.
Filled out US visa application form DS-160, gathering information
required to complete my application.
== Plan ==
* GDB Record and Replay
Continue to write code for decoding and recording thumb32 instructions.
Try to find a way to generate test data of various instructions to
test record and replay code.
* Travel and Visas
Go to UK visa application center to collect my passport back.
Apply for US visa and make an appointment for the interview for the
week of 23rd September.
Prepare for UK travel for the week of 14th September.
