Hi all,
I have built our customized u-boot (u-boot-2012.10-rc3), with two Linaro toolchain, but have no luck with the latest toolchain.
The u-boot built with gcc-linaro-arm-none-eabi-4.9-2014.09_linux can boot on the development board. This toolchain was pre-built toolchain from Linaro, built with crosstool-NG. The version is gcc version 4.9.2 20140904 (prerelease) (crosstool-NG linaro-1.13.1-4.9-2014.09 - Linaro GCC 4.9-2014.09)
With the same u-boot source, the binary built with the Linaro gcc 4.9 2015.04 hang on the same board. The 2nd toolchain was compiled locally on RHEL6, built with ABE tool. We build it locally to avoid "GLIBC_2.14 not found" issue on the pre-built toolchain. The version is gcc version 4.9.3 20150413 (prerelease) (Linaro GCC 2015.04)
Does anyone have an idea what happen? Is it a regression bug in gcc4.9?
Thanks,
Joel

gcc version 4.9.3 20150413 (prerelease) (Linaro GCC 2015.04)
Hi,
I am using the linaro tolchain to create a root-filesystem for an embedded
Linux system.
I would like to copy the essential include files and libraries(libc) from
the toolchain to the rootFS of the embedded system.
Is there any explanation of the folder structure of the toolchain so I know
which folder to copy?
How do I know which files to copy and where those files are located in the
toolchain?
Thanks,
Robert
Hello,
In an effort to provide a longer quality control window for quarterly
releases the Linaro Toolchain Working Group will be making some changes to
the release process starting with the forthcoming 2015.04 products.
Little will change for the consumers of TCWG products.
The current monthly source release of the 'stable' Linaro GCC source
archives posted to releases.linaro.org will move to snapshots.linaro.org
and will be designated 'monthly snapshots'.
The exact location will be announced when the 2015.04 Toolchain component
source archive release notes are posted to this mailing list.
These monthly snapshots will continue to have branch merges, performance
fixes, security fixes, and correctness fixes applied on a monthly basis.
They will also continue to have validation across a variety of common ARM
targets performed (per backport) against them.
TCWG will introduce the concept of a 'release candidate source archive' and
'release candidate binary toolchain archive' six weeks before the projected
release date of the Quarterly Binary Toolchain Release. For example, the
2015.05 Quarterly Binary Toolchain and Quarterly Source Archive will be
based upon the 2015.04 source archive snapshot.
Release candidate source and binary archives will be posted to
snapshots.linaro.org.
This release candidate will receive the scrutiny of internal and external
stakeholders for six weeks and give an opportunity to evaluate the
forth-coming Quarterly Binary Toolchain Archive and Source Archive
Release. Problems found with the release candidates will result in the
availability of incremental release candidate archives.
The official quarterly release will be posted to releases.linaro.org.
Please direct any questions or concerns to this mailing list or to me
directly.

Benchmark automation - TCWG-360 [5/10]
* Flushed the rest of the easy stuff from my 'small fixups' to my
'staging' branch
* Started rolling generic patches from my backport-benchmark branch into gerrit
* Prodded at the prototype backport-benchmark job until the pieces worked
** Ran out of time to try an end-to-end run
* Thought a little about permissions for access to source/results
* Use of nc.traditional appears to have introduced a race condition
catomics - TCWG-436 [2/10]
* Tried a run on A15 - same story as A57, good improvement on g8 libc
ubenchmark that doesn't translate into SPEC subset
* Performance counting the ubenchmark suggests variation around cache
accesses on the catomic vs not-catomic code, didn't have any time to
think about what, if anything, this means
Misc [3/10]
* Featuring an unusual level of ARM interruption
* Especially concerns about change from multiarch to non-multiarch
sysroot in binary releases
=Plan=
Confirm backport benchmarking working, roll remaining generic patches
into gerrit
Investigate the nc.traditional race
Add a retry loop around LAVA boot (occasionally see LAVA-fail here)
Create unit tests
Follow up on (non-)multiarch sysroot issue
=== Progress ===
* Get TSAN building for Aarch64 on 42-bit VMA systems. (4/10) (-pie mode only)
Expected Passes : 253
Expected Failures : 2
Unsupported Tests : 1
Unexpected Failures: 13
The failures are categorized into three types.
(1) setjmp and longjmp implementation in assembly needs to written for Aarch64 .
ThreadSanitizer :: longjmp.cc
ThreadSanitizer :: longjmp2.cc
ThreadSanitizer :: longjmp3.cc
ThreadSanitizer :: longjmp4.cc
ThreadSanitizer :: signal_longjmp.cc
(2) FATAL: ThreadSanitizer: failed to intercept pthread_cond_init. I
need to debug and see why this happens.
ThreadSanitizer :: bench_mutex.cc
ThreadSanitizer :: cond.c
ThreadSanitizer :: cond_cancel.c
ThreadSanitizer :: cond_race.cc
ThreadSanitizer :: cond_version.c
ThreadSanitizer-Unit :: rtl/TsanRtlTest/Posix.CondBasic
(3) TLS descriptions ThreadDescriptorSize (), GetTls () and ThreadSelf
() defintions are needed for aarch64.
tls_race.cc
tls_race2.cc
Some ptrace defintions are needed PTRACE_GETREGS, PTRACE_SETREGS
PTRACE_GETFPREGS, PTRACE_SETFPREGS for sanitizer, but they are not
implemented for Aarch64. I am planning to switch off that code in
TSAN.
* ASAN/TSAN documentation. ASAN documentation complete. TSAN in progress. (4/10)
* Emails, meetings. (2/10)
* Linaro 1-1 with christophe, Ryan.
* AMD meetings/event, 1-1 with AMD manager, status meeting.
* GCC mailing list.
===Plan ===
Complete TSAN documentation.
Analyze remaining failures for TSAN.
Push LLVM tree to git.linaro.org for handover.
* Backports (3/10)
- Backports validated and commited to SVN for April release
- 219724 - Add a new scheduling description for the ARM
Cortex-A57 processor
- 219746 - Fix broken 219724
- 220103 - A57 pipeline model
- 220399 - Add support for -mcpu=cortex-a72 and
-mcpu=cortex-a72.cortex-a53
- 220413 - Add support for -mcpu=cortex-a72
* Illness (6/10)
* Misc (1/10)
- Conference calls
== Next week ==
- Begin backports for May release
- Continue TCWG 110 investigation
== This Week ==
TCWG-619:
* Compiled chromium on ARM without LTO with following hack to resolve
error: undefined reference to 'clock_gettime', version 'GLIBC_2.17'
- chromium uses prebuilt sysroot in
src/chrome/installer/linux/debian_wheezy_arm-sysroot
and it has libc-2.13.so, libc.so.6 is symbolic link to libc-2.13.so in
the sysroot. However it appears minimum libc-2.17 is required (version
'GLIBC_2.17'). I replaced libc-2.13.so by abe-built
libc-2.20-2014.11-1-git.so, and symlinked libc.so.6 to
libc-2.20-2014.11-1-git.so and that worked (for non LTO build).
Curiously I didn't require to do this for building chromium with
linaro prebuilt toolchain.
* Found a way to disable LTO for building lib/libblink_web.so by manually
removing -flto from web_blink.ninja and Webkit/source/core/*.ninja,
which worked.
* Chromium non LTO build issues on ARM:
a) Fails with gcc-5 due to error in chromium:
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=340312
To compile chromium, I applied a patch to cp/typeck2.c to shut
narrowing conversion errors (ideally the fix should be to chromium).
b) ld.bfd (linaro branch) fails with undefined references to many functions
in libattr1: http://pastebin.com/ju4SCDSE
Not sure if this is ld.bfd bug, or me building it wrongly.
Haven't tested yet with trunk ld.bfd.
Works fine with gold.
* Target independent Chromium LTO issues with trunk
a) Top-level asm and LTO (PR57703) - This appears to be not supported.
* Chromium LTO issues on ARM with trunk:
a) ICE in lib/libblink_web.so (PR65576).
b) Target specific builtin not available: http://pastebin.com/2ANsEyMn
Seems related to:
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=408997
c) ICE during LINK chrome: http://pastebin.com/DpjJ5M7g
d) GNU ld appears to segfault compiling in LTO mode.
* Chromium LTO issues with linaro-4.9 branch:
a) ICE elf section out of range (PR57208) - fixed in trunk
b) gold - Ran out of file descriptors: fixed in trunk.
Seems the following patch which is in trunk but not in linaro branch fixes it:
https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=blobdiff;f=gold/…
I tried to backport it but got errors, possibly depends on other commits.
* v8 ARM LTO issues:
- Assembly error - offset out of range (PR65778). Possibly invalid bug.
== Next Week ==
- Create reduced test case for PR65576
- Figure out how to disable LTO for building lib/libblink_web.so in .gyp files
- PR49551
- Exams on 20th and 24th April.
# Progress #
* arm gdb, [6/10] many fails are fixed in the last two weeks.
1034->153 FAILs of -marm, 1008->143 FAILs of -mthumb, and 627->71
FAILs of -mfloat-abi=soft/-marm/-march=armv4t. There are 367 FAILs
in total, and 205 FAILs are about reverse debugging, which has been
broken for many years.
** TCWG-769, patch is committed upstream.
** TCWG-567, two patches are committed, and another two patches are in
progress. Existing HW watchpoint resource counting in GDB doesn't
work well on arm boards which doesn't have HW watchpoint support.
** TCWG-509, many arm gdb test fails are fixed. In progress.
* FSF GDB patch review. [3/10]
Test Pedro's "all-stop on top of non-stop" patch series V3 on both arm
and aarch64. Results are much better.
* Misc, meeting. [1/10]
# Plan #
* Fix test fails for arm and aarch64 gdb.
* Upstream patches review.

Hi,
I (and several other people) am (are) having trouble to build busybox with the latest aarch64-linux-gnu 2014.11 binaries we got from linaro.org.
It seems none of the built-in library search paths (gcc -print-search-dirs) allow to find crt[1i].o. They seem to be expected in a multiarch location but aren't (libc/usr/lib64). We're working around this with a symlink. Is this a bug? Have you seen similar issues?
Here's a failing command-line and the associated error message:

* ASAN 32bit allocator failures on amd-01 (4/10)
Completed analyzing failures. Sent a patch to Address sanitizes
community for review. Applied patch to latest LLVM trunk and ran
tests. found one failure. But it was due to the test case assuming
that return value from "getpwnam_r" all is always zero. Fixed the
test case by removing the assert and all LLVM tests passes.
[ Renato tested the patch on APM (39 bit VA) ].
* Again there is some discussion in GCC bugzilla on deciding which
allocators to use for Aarch64 42 bit VA*.
I have a patches for both allocators and posted it to ASAN group
64 bit allocators wont work on juno. So for ASAN there is a need to
have some kind of dynamic address space detection mechanism. Set the
allocators type and required mappings at runtime for Aarch64.
But that needs to be decided by ASAN group whether to do that or use
my 32 bit allocator patch . I am planning to stop it here and wait as
suggested by renato.
* Get TSAN building for Aarch64 on 42-bit VMA systems. (2/10) (-pie mode only)
Applied patch that I had on GCC tree on LLVM trunk. Build failed need

allow TSAN build to complete. right now clang does not recognize
aarch64 target for aarch64 although I enabled it under TSAN. looking
at the issue.

Hi,
I did some tests on the following function
--- CUT HERE ---
int fibo(int n)
{
if (n < 2) return 1;
return (fibo(n-2) + fibo(n-1));
}
--- CUT HERE ---
and I discovered that it is faster -O2 than -O3. This is with gcc 4.9.2.
Looking at the disassembly I see it is using FP registers to hold
integer values. The following is a small extract.
.L3:
fmov w0, s8
sub w25, w25, #1
cmn w25, #1
add w0, w0, w27
fmov s8, w0
bne .L19
add w0, w0, 1
b .L2
Recompiling with -mgeneral-regs-only generates a huge improvement.
The following are the times I get on various partner HW. I have
normalised the -O2 times to 1 second so that I do not disclose actual
partner performance data:
Partner 1: -O2 = 1sec, -O3 = 1.13sec, -O3 -mgeneral-regs-only = 0.72sec
Partner 2: -O2 = 1sec, -O3 = 0.68sec, -O3 -mgeneral-regs-only = 0.60sec
Partner 3: -O2 = 1sec, -O3 = 0.73sec, -O3 -mgeneral-regs-only = 0.68sec
Partner 4: -O2 = 1sec, -O3 = 0.83sec, -O3 -mgeneral-regs-only = 0.84sec
So, in general, -O3 does actually do better than -O2, but in all cases
performance is better if I stop it using FP registers for int values.
I have put a tarball of the test program along with 3 binaries and 3
disassemblies here:-
http://people.linaro.org/~edward.nevill/fibo.tar
All the best,
Ed.
Hi,
I'm seeing the following build error trying to build from the current master

* ASAN/TSAN run on 42 bit VA Aarch64 (TCWG-634) (6/10)
Sent a patch that enables ASAN tests with 64 bit allocator on
amd-01 (AMD Seattle). All ASAN test passes in LLVM.
But on juno platform 39 bit VA does not have enough memory to map
hence we need to stay on 32 bit allocator.
Discussed with ASAN community and it is been decided to use 32 bit
allocator as default. They are not ok with having a mechanism to
detect VA and swutch allocators based on that.
Started looking at failures on amd-01 (AMD steatle) with 32 bit alloctor.
None of the ASAN tests ran when I switched to 32 bit allocator on amd-01.
Reason there is a spin mutex lock which is waiting for the memory
allocation to complete, but assertion failure makes it to wait
infinitely.
After fixing map range the assertion failure is gone but I keep
getting some failures with 32 bit allocator "on".

* aarch64 gdb , TCWG-652, [6/10]
** TCWG-662: Fixed and committed (by Pedro).
** TCWG-660: Rebuild toolchain with ABE.
** TCWG-663: Root cause of fails are known, that test case sets HW
breakpoint on arbitrary address while aarch64 HW breakpoint requires
4-byte align. ARM has the similar HW breakpoint feature, need to
to check on arm target too.
* fsf gdb patch review [2/10]
** Review and approve one patch from IBM which fixes TCWG-669 too.
** Discuss on re-org for syscall catchpoint for different target/arch.
* misc [2/10]
** Meeting.
** Move to the new house.
# Issues #
* Need an ARM board with HW breakpoint support in kernel. I tried
32-bit system on my juno board via schroot, but
PTRACE_SETHBPREGS doesn't work properly.
# Plan #
* TCWG-660: Teach ABE to import systemtap and build glibc with
--enable-systemtap.
* TCWG-663: See how the tests behave on ARM if ARM board is available.
* Other cards under TCWG-652.

== Progress ==
* Validation: (2/10)
- reached a state where Jenkins "green" actually means no regression found
- submitted patches for review
- confirmed that ABE master branch produces results similar to merge branch
- stopped checking the accuracy of report.sh since a few bugzilla
had been submitted, using ST script instead
* Backports (3/10)
- reviews are getting difficult, with lots of conflicts as the 4.9
branch has diverged from trunk quite a lot
* Sanitizers (1/10)
- trying to build LLVM+run the ASAN tests on AArch32
- tried to reconfigure my Hikey 96board with a 42 VA bits enabled
kernel, but it didn't boot: I still don't have access to such a
platform
* GCC FSF trunk/4.9 monitoring
- stopped tracking random "Interrupted system call"
- builds and validations now run faster, but with more frequent such errors
* Misc (4/10)
- meetings, conf-calls, emails, ...
- Release/maintenance branches policy, respin criteria, validation matrix
== Next ==
* Backports: reviews, and improve review-tool
* Sanitizers
Hi,
I have being trying to persuade gcc to generate the ldp instruction without success. I have tried many combinations, below is an example.
--- cut here ---
#define LDP(x,y,p) { \

data = *(struct vec *)p; p += 2; \
x = data.x; y = data.y; \
}
long testp(long *p) {
long x, y;
LDP(x, y, p);
return x+y;
}

* compiler-pass to widen computation (TCWG-547) - (7/10)
- ran into -std=gnu90 issue in compiling spec2k/2006 with the trunk
using the new infrastructure
- ran benchmarking but the results are not much different
- tried with -save-temps but the intermediates are gone. Not sure if
infrastructure cleans it
- setting up spec2k in nx aarch64 chroot for easy comparison of
intermediate values (asm and tree dumps)
- also plan to try benchmarking with widening pass enabled only for
unsigned type where BIT_AND_EXPR (zero_extend) is optimized well as
compared to new middle-end ZEXT_EXPR (which is not handled well yet) to
see if the difference is there.
* Improve register allocation for AArch64 (TCWG-620) - (1/10)
- Looked at the relevant patches and code
* https://bugs.linaro.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1291 (1/10)
* Misc (1/10)
== Plan ==
* TCWG-620 and TCWG-547
* https://bugs.linaro.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1291
* TSAN support for Aarch64 (5/10)
TCWG-642
Discussed on making -pie for -fsanitize=thread as default in GCC.
Learnt that LLVM sanitizers now support both -pie and non -pie mode.
Discussed the same issue with sanitizer's group. They asked me to
do -pie for aarch64 as first version. Pushed GCC changes to
linaro git.
TCWG-654
Discussed with Renato, moved to LLVM tree and woking on that.
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=64946.
TCWG-634
Ran ASAN tests which 32 bit allocator code now as default on amd-01.
/home/venkataramanan.kumar/LLVM/TSAN_port/Source/projects/compiler-
rt/lib/sanitizer_common/sanitizer_allocator.h:841
((res)) < ((kNumPossibleRegions)) (4193146, 524288)
I got similar error in TSAN and it went off when I switched to 64
bit allocator.
* Bug 869 - Wrote a pattern in match.pd to remove type promotion in
ABS_EXPR . Richard Beiner suggested to add ABSU_EXPR to take care of
signed overflows (3/10)
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=64946

Go away where ? ABE just uses whatever triplet you give it. I commonly use just arm-linux-gnueabi for example. If you don't specify 'none', it shouldn't appear anywhere. If it does, let me know and I'll fix it.

Subject: Debian Multiarch Tuple Style Naming With ABE
Hi,
I recently built with ABE for the first time. It's pretty slick.
Is there a way to make the vendor string (the "none" in
"arm-none-linux-gnueabihf-*") go away? It breaks my scripts without appearing
to add value.
Thanks,
Chris

Holiday Friday [2/10]
catomics - TCWG-436 [2/10]
* Fixed broken benchmark-against-sysroot code in scripts
* Built a lot of sysroots
Juno cache effects - LDTS-1238 [4/10]
* Quite a bit of reading and learning some more perf and other tools
* Formed a few hypothesis, started testing
* Looking promising, but I find these things often go wrong, so we'll see
Misc [2/10]
* Featuring first successful Jenkins run of all of SPEC2006
=Plan=
Make sure I've really fixed the last sysroot bug, actually run
benchmarks on catomics
Attempt to close out the cache effects issue
Carry on with Jenkins

Hi,
I am trying to port the Boost.Context library (from www.boost.org) to aarch64 gcc and have come across a gnarly problem.
Boost.Context essentially does co-routine style context switching. It has a structure f_context which it uses to save and restore contexts. The structure f_context contains both integer (x0..xN) and floating point VFP (d8..d15) context.
The function jump_context switches contexts
typedef struct f_context *f_context_t
extern void jump_context(fcontext_t *old, f_context_t new, bool save_fp);
So this jumps to a new context returning the old context in *old. If save_fp is set the floating point context must be saved because the application uses floating point. Otherwise the save and restore of the floating point context may be ignored.
So, essentially, to save the old context it does
jump_fcontext:
# prepare stack for GP + FPU
sub sp, sp, #0xb0
# test if fpu env should be preserved
cmp w3, #0
b.eq 1f
# save d8 - d15
stp d8, d9, [sp, #0x00]
stp d10, d11, [sp, #0x10]
stp d12, d13, [sp, #0x20]
stp d14, d15, [sp, #0x30]
1:
# save x19-x30
stp x19, x20, [sp, #0x40]
stp x21, x22, [sp, #0x50]
stp x23, x24, [sp, #0x60]
stp x25, x26, [sp, #0x70]
stp x27, x28, [sp, #0x80]
stp x29, x30, [sp, #0x90]
However, there is a problem with this because gcc may store integer value in floating point registers around a function call.
So, I have no way of knowing whether it is actually necessary to save/restore floating point context.
Even worse applications using Boost.Context may be completely borken if they assume it is safe to call jump_context with save_fp == 0.
Any suggestions?
Ed.
