Tracked a bootstrap failure with SMS flags on ARM machine exposed in
recent trunk.
Fixed and tested a patch for that.
Tested another SMS patch following comments received from gcc ml@
(http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2011-05/msg02294.html)
Following conversation with Micheal, added SPEC2006 analysis info to
the benchmarks wiki page
-https://wiki.linaro.org/Internal/ToolChain/Benchmarks
Discussed with Ramana weird RTL pattern generated for
thumb2_movhi_insn with -march=armv7-a -mthumb using trunk. Probably
will open a PR for that.
Hi,
* learning more on andoid (repo tool, some branches, the basics of the
android build system)
* finished to setup my environment to build the android sources
* sucessfully build linaro-android using linaro gcc 4.4, 4.5 and 4.6
* tracked down the libgui.so linaro android issue to the apriori
prelinker
* workaround: disable prelinking for this module (patch -> linaro-dev)
* I still don't understand what exactly is supposed to be prelinked
and what's exactly causing the fail
* Note: next Monday is a public holiday in Germany
Regards
Ken
== String Routines ==
* Completed gathering the SPEC2k6 memcpy results, graphed them, sent them out
* Gathered SPEC2k6 memset results, graphed them, sent them out
== 64bit Atomics ==
* Modified gcc backend to do 64bit Atomic ops - the code looks good,
but I've not
done much testing yet.
== Other ==
* Upstreamed a small ltrace patch
Next week:
Plan is to get gcc tests done and attack libgcc for the pre-v7
fallbacks (the tricky
bit there is runtime deciding what to use)
Also run spec and denbench for strlen and some other string routines
== Progress ==
* Spent some time on the VFP moves and look at ivopts for a bit.
Analysing a couple of options here.
* Committed the DImode moves patch upstream.
* Fixed PR49335 where GCC was generating rsb ip, sp, ip lsl #2
* Proposed a fix for PR48454 (finally being able to reproduce it) -
was a case of a missing length attribute for vec_pack_trunc.
* Investigated some regressions in v1 of a popular embedded benchmark
- leads to BRANCH_COST tuning.
* Merged by neon-vorn-vbic patch into linaro-gcc :4.6
== Plans ==
* Spend some time on the VFP moves and look at ivopts for a bit.
* Merge the fix for lengths to linaro-gcc:4.6 and 4.5 if applicable.
* Merge fix for PR49335 to linaro-gcc:4.5 and 4.6 .
* Find some time for some upstream patch review.
* T2 performance review meeting/
Meetings:
* 1-1s
* TCWG call.

== upstream-omap3-patches ==
* started on disentangling the patchstack: submitted patches upstream
for a few standalone fixes. First few steps in a big job...
== omap3-usb-model ==
* added QEMU's USB OHCI model to the omap3/beagle, and (after some
debugging and submitting a couple of OHCI bugfixes upstream)
got USB keyboard and mouse working
== linaro-qemu-11.11 ==
* rebased on master and identified gcc 4.6 compiler patches we need
== other ==
* added and tested patches for an overo board model
* added Beagle board support for returning EDID data from a fake
monitor so the kernel will actually turn the display on
* discussions about Android emulator (which looks likely to take the
upstreamed ARMv7 translator with the fixes we've worked on over
the last six months)
* office move
* QEMU 0.15 is not too far in the future: need to make sure all the
ARM stuff we want is in it
Meetings: standup, GSoC student, Christoffer Dall (working on KVM for ARM)
Current qemu patch status is tracked here:
https://wiki.linaro.org/PeterMaydell/QemuPatchStatus
Absences:
1-5 August: Linaro sprint 1111
(maybe) 15-16 August: QEMU/KVM strand at LinuxCon NA, Vancouver
[LinuxCon proper follows on 17-19th]
Hi,
- vectorization of widening multiplication of unsigned types and
constants - committed to mainline
- fix vectorizer testsuite failures on ARM - submitted
- testing a patch to fix a bug in the vectorizer revealed by the
widen-mult patch
- testing a patch to fix bad peeling heuristic that causes
gcc.dg/vect/vect-72.c to fail on ARM

I've done a quick write-up on the (almost) continious builds done in
the toolchain group:
https://wiki.linaro.org/WorkingGroups/Builds
It's high level and includes things like what branches we watch, how
often they get built, where the results go, and how things like
testsuite results are shared. This is in follow up to the email on
testsuite diffs yesterday.
