== Progress == * GCC upstream validation: - reported several regressions/new failures * GCC - Neon intrinsics: vceqq, vceqz and vceqzq for p64 patch: no feedback - MVE autovectorization: more patterns updates (vshl, vshr). WIP * benchmarking: - Scripts to run coremark on stm32 now merged, debugging issues. * infra: - debugging issues with our docker containers == Next == * GCC/cortex-M testing improvements & fixes * cortex-m benchmarking * MVE intrinsics improvements

[ACTIVITY] report week ending 20 Nov

Generally productive week rather derailed at the end by a sudden onset of toothache Thursday night :-/ Progress: * UM-2 [QEMU upstream maintainership] + usual release cycle work * VIRT-364 [QEMU support for ARMv8.1-M extensions] + Worked through the remaining set of identified new features for v8.1M implementing them. + Fixed a handful of pre-existing bugs along the way. + Sent out a patchset with all this plus the "Implement (no-MVE) Cortex-M55 model" patch on top, since we now have all the pieces needed for it. + The next and final piece of work here is to implement a model of a board that uses the Cortex-M55. -- PMM

Progress: * UM-2 [QEMU upstream maintainership] + investigated and fixed a bug that had been lurking unfixed in our n800 models for years which prevented guest boot of Maemo images + docs tidyup: moved "orphan" rST documents into the manual structure so they actually get shipped to users + usual release candidate related work * VIRT-364 [QEMU support for ARMv8.1-M extensions] + working on handling for new FP system registers; the FPCXT regs in particular have some tricky corners... thanks -- PMM

Demo of using etm traces on arm for instructions and functions recording and reverse debugging

by Zied Guermazi

hi all, to demonstrate extending gdb to use etm traces for implementing btrace on arm processors, I have made this video available on youtube https://youtu.be/ptKbJRNUqUI users can then have access to process record and replay, on instructions and functions level (https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/Process-Record-and-Replay…) and reverse debugging(https://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/news/reversible.html) we have all functionalities available for intel PT except tracing multi-threaded applications. In this demo I have "reconstructed" the cspr register to enable setting breakpoints in reverse debugging. it is still dirty (adds arm specific register to an architecture agnostic structure) but it shows that it works when implemented properly Kind Regards Zied Guermazi

Progress: * VIRT-65 [QEMU upstream maintainership] + usual release cycle work + Our Coverity-Scan issues had been left untended a bit too long: went through them doing triage, reporting them back to patch submitters, and writing a few fixes for some of the easy ones + That took me down a rabbit-hole of fixing some issues with our sparc64 usermode emulation so I could demonstrate that the coverity fixes hadn't broken anything... thanks -- PMM
