Hi Linaro Members,
while I am cross compiling the wpa supplicant with toolchain gcc-linaro-4.9-2015.05-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf for hostapd and nl80211 mode enabled in menuconfig I am getting linker message ld:cannot find -lnl -3 (libnl) .I tried to locate the libnl libraries but they are not built in.could you please let me know how to enabled libnl in the toolchain.
Thanks
Best Regards --

TCWG-653 ARM/Thumb interworking veneers
Committed upstream after several review rounds and at least one set of
build bot failures in systems/compilers we don't have set up.
TCWG-612 ARM TLS support in LLD
Have an implementation and most of the tests. Should be ok to upstream
next week.
Found that llvm-mc doesn't implement .word sym(tlsldo). Have a simple
fix that I'll need to upstream before I can test local-dynamic.

The Linaro Binary Toolchain
============================
The Linaro GCC 5.3-2016.05-rc2 Release-Candidate is now available.
Notice: All Linaro GCC 5 series toolchain users should migrate to the
latest version of the Linaro GCC 5 toolchain in order to mitigate
potential security exposure to CVE-2015-7547. See the NEWS section
below for details.

Host Requirements
==================
Linaro officially supports the current and previous Ubuntu LTS
releases (as of the time of this release). This does not mean that
the toolchain will not work on other/older Linux distributions. See
the following for the life-time of Ubuntu LTS releases.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases
The host system upon which the cross-compiler will run requires a
minimum of glibc 2.14, because of API changes to glibc's memcpy API.

NEWS for Linaro GCC 5.3-2016.05-rc2
====================================
* Increment binutils release date to 2016_02 to reflect the most recent
commit:
commit ef90a4718f535cbe6345b4e7168baea7b1972abf
Author: Matthew Wahab <matthew.wahab(a)arm.com>
Date: Tue Jan 12 16:35:30 2016 +0000
[ARM] Support ARMv8.2 RAS extension.
* Baremetal sysroot names now contain 'newlib' rather than 'glibc'.
* Manifests now contain relative paths rather than absolute paths.
* Now generating proper manifest files.
* Fixed pi requeue support in glibc 2.21 while allowing the existing
2.21 minimum kernel default setting. This was checked into the

Hi Everyone,
I have a test script from help that repeatedly builds and runs a
library under different configurations. The script includes multiple
Asan tests.
The Asan tests are producing some findings under ARM32 as shown below.
Other platforms do not include Asan findings. In addition, Valgrind
does nt produce any findings.
The test program is always built with at least -g2, and sometimes
built with -g3. However, I am not seeing the symbolication. According
to the GCC folks, asan_symbolize is not required for GCC because it
uses libbacktrace. Also see
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1250844.
Why am I lacking symbolization, and how do I achieve it?

# Progress #
* TCWG-655, Workaround ARM linux kernel ptrace bug on setting VFP
registers. [2/10]
Think about different approaches to workaround the kernel bug, but
can't work unfortunately. Propose an approach that workaround it in
gdb testing by setting affinity if the kernel is known broken.
People agree on this.
* TCWG-333, Thumb mode function pointer assignment in GDB. [3/10]
It is broken when you assign a function to a function pointer in
thumb mode in GDB. My original attempt is to skip the test, because
it is difficult to do what MIPS does nowadays. After some
discussions, I realize it is a GDB bug, and we should fix it.
Fortunately it is broken on ppc64 as well because of function
descriptor :)
* TCWG-518, ARM range stepping patches. [2/10]
V3 are reviewed, but I misunderstood one comments to V2. I'll update
patches, retest and post them.
* ARM linux kernel raises SIGILL for unknown syscall number, while GDB
expects kernel returns -ENOSYS. [2/10]
The behaviour is different from other arch. The patch in GDB side is
committed, but still need to kernel people why ARM kernel behaves
this way.
* Misc [1/10]
# Plan #
* All above,
* Off on Thur and Fri.

o One day off (2/10)
== Progress ==
o Extended Validation (3/10)
- Benchmarking job babysitting.
- Looked at Dejagnu issue (pid killing, resurrected an old patch)
o Upstream GCC (3/10)
- __sync bultin fix for ARMv8.1:
Careful read of the doc shows that there is no issue with the
current implementation (no need to add an extra DMB, acq/rel
semantic is sufficient in this case)
- AArch64 and ARM backend cleanup w/r to reload remaining hooks
Analysis and validation on-going
o Misc (2/10)
* Various meetings and discussions.
== Plan ==
o Continue on-going tasks
== This Week ==
* LTO (6/10)
a) TCWG-548 (2/10)
- Tweaked algorithm, which shows some improvements in reducing external
references
b) TCWG-666 (4/10)
- Had a look at bitwise-ccp
- WIP prototype patch
* Benchmarking (1/10)
- Got results for linaro-gcc-6 for coremark-pro for arm-linux-gnueabihf
* Sick Leave (2/10)
* Misc (1/10)
- Pinged for reviewing patches for TCWG-665 and TCWG-72
- Meetings
== Next Week ==
- Address upstream reviews for TCWG-665
- TCWG-666: Continue with prototype patch.
- TCWG-548: Submit upstream for feedback.
