regression of x86 gcc bootstrap with Linaro sourcebase

by Robert Schiele

Hi Ulrich, Before I build the cross compiler for ARM target I do a bootstrap process of an i686 compiler on the same code base to use that one building the cross compiler to reduce the chance of seeing subtle problems late in the game. This process unveiled a x86 bootstrap regression with some of your changes on the Linaro 4.7 branch. It all boils down to the following set of changes you did: commit c904094f2421bbd5d2cab6d7fbccecf055509629 Author: Ulrich Weigand <uweigand(a)de.ibm.com> Date: Mon Jul 16 16:31:58 2012 +0200 Update to exactly reflect upstream version. commit bf378903a1b749b904ae64635182e7fc9b43e0e4 Author: Ulrich Weigand <uweigand(a)de.ibm.com> Date: Tue Jul 10 15:46:51 2012 +0200 Fix backport. commit e0c3b0a21916ffafc058cd88d82423d87ce77b50 Author: Ulrich Weigand <uweigand(a)de.ibm.com> Date: Mon Jul 9 22:52:10 2012 +0200 Fix LP 1020601.

See <http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html> for instructions. Note, that the --disable-checking is essential to reproduce. As soon as you do --enable-checking the bootstrap completes successfully. I would assume that you then still have the bug in the compiler but it is just subtle enough not to be triggered then. Reverting your mentioned changes fixes this problem. If you need further information about my environment to reproduce the problem feel free to contact me. Greetings, Robert

[PATCH 3/5] cortex strings preparation for aarch64

by Marcus Shawcroft

This patch provides support to detect the host architecture in configure.in use the detected architecture to conditionalize parts of the Makefile.am. The intention is that we retain a single top level Makefile which contains rules relevant to all supported architectures, each gated by the AM_CONDITIONAL infrastructure. /Marcus

[PATCH 0/5] cortex strings preparation for aarch64

by Marcus Shawcroft

Folks, In preparation for adding aarch64 string functions into cortex-strings, I'd like feed back on the following series of patches. 1/5 Trivial whitespace cleanups. 2/5 Autotools foo for cross building support. 3/5 Autotools foo for architecture detection. 4/5 Missing LDADD and CFLAGS setting. 5/5 Use --std=gnu99 I'm particularly interested in views on 3/5. This patch sets direction for autoconf detection of the host architecture. The intention is that we retain the single toplevel Makefile.am which gains AM_CONDITIONAL support for the detected host triple. The aarch64 specific code will follow in a different patch set. Cheers /Marcus

What tools can be used to protect the KVM and qemu quality？

by chenq

Hi all， I am a rookie, and now I'm focusing on ARM virtualization. As we know,KVM (for Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution. KVM-Autotest is a set of virtualization tests for X86 platform, but it may not be suitable for ARM.I want to know, in the linaro , what tools can protect the KVM and qemu quality ? Thanks and Regards,Qun Chen

Toolchain Working Group Meeting Times

by Matthew Gretton-Dann

All, As I mentioned on Monday, due to new members of the team coming on board I am going to rejig the meeting times from 18th December. My proposal is as follows (all times UK Local - UTC+0h winter, UTC+1h summer): 0. These changes will come into effect the week commencing 18th December. 1. The weekly call will happen on a Monday, at 0930 and 1600. You only need to make it to one instance of the call. For those who are physically near each other arranging it so that both calls get attended would be good and notes shared would be good. 2. The Stand-up call will happen on a Thursday, alternating between 0930 and 1600. This is 'best effort' - but please try to attend at least every other week. 3. The performance call will go weekly, and will happen on a Thursday, alternating between 0930 and 1600. If you are on the invite list to this call again please try to attend at least every other week, but if you can manage every week that would be great. If you have any comments on these please can you raise them by the end of the week as I would like to confirm what we are going to do at the call on Monday (at the normal time of 0915UTC). Thanks, Matt -- Matthew Gretton-Dann Linaro Toolchain Working Group matthew.gretton-dann(a)linaro.org

Summary: * Verify shrink-wrap related bugs. * Validate and release Linaro toolchain binary 2012.11 release. * Collect performance data for different branch costs. Details: * Validate and release Linaro toolchain binary 2012.11. * Test aarch64 toolchain. All the basic tests PASS except gdbserver. * Collect performance data for branch cost combination. For eembcv1, some combinations have more than 2% performance improvement on PandaBoard THUMB mode. More test results will come later. * Verify shrink-wrap related bugs (http://goo.gl/6fGg5). All pass with the new patch. Native tests are ongoing. Identify the root cause why the copy, which blocks the shrink-wrap optimization for 453.povray benchmark, is not optimized. Plans: * Finalize the aarch64 toolchain binary release plan. * Collect performance data for branch cost tuning. * Enhance shrink-wrap to optimize the copy. Best regards! -Zhenqiang
