Progress: * UM-2 [QEMU upstream maintainership] - fixed some places in our RTC device models where we were putting a time_t or time_t offset into a 32-bit variable - took over from RTH briefly for pullreq merge handling - sent some patches fixing minor Coverity issues - investigated a couple of "test case fails on big-endian host" errors: sent patches for Sparc FPRS handling and for the Arm SMMUv3 model - Investigated report that our MPS2/3 M-profile models don't have the same number of MPU regions configured as the real FPGA images, and so you can't run the same Zephyr binary on both. Have some preliminary patches to correct the number of regions. * QEMU-530 [QEMU ARM v9.4 Baseline CPU for TCG] - finally got back to FEAT_MOPS work; wrote a skeleton of code for the memset operations that's about right up to the point where it needs to actually do the memset... -- PMM

Hello, # TCWG CI — GDB - Investigated why the GDB check jobs stopped succeeding, as reported by Maxim. It turns there was an upstream commit (which was soon reverted) that broke generation of the gdb.sum file and consequently our baseline results became empty. Theoretically the CI should recover from that but we don't deal well with this corner case. With Maxim's help, restored the baseline and now things should be back to normal. Will improve our scripts to avoid this trap. # CI Babysitting This week was my turn to baby sit the CI. - Investigated 12 regressions in GCC and reported 3. The others were already fixed. - Investigated 1 regression in GDB but it wasn't actually one. - Investigated 1 regression in QEMU but it was already fixed. -- Thiago

[ACTIVITY] report week ending 23 Jun (inc. KVM Forum trip report)

by Peter Maydell

Progress: * UM-2 [QEMU upstream maintainership] - catch up on email after a week away - Put together some arm pull requests - sent out draft QEMU summit minutes for review - sent patch to avoid using the buggy __builtin_subcll in Apple Clang 14 - sent patch fixing build error with newer xkeyboard-data - some gardening of Coverity issue reports Last week was KVM Forum in Brno -- here's a quick trip summary: This year KVM Forum was a slightly smaller conference (2 days, single-track), as we are now organizing it independently of the Linux Foundation. The independent organization went pretty well this year (despite the slightly awkward short notice) and the conference was very useful both for the talks and for the hallway track. Interesting talks (just a sampling biased to my interests): * KVM: Arm Confidential Compute Architecture Support Suzuki Poulose presented a summary of FEAT_RME and the CCA hardware and software architecture, and how it's intended to fit into KVM * KVM/arm64: Episode V - The Blob Strikes Back Immediately following was Marc Zyngier and Oliver Upton from Google: their talk was a pretty strong critique of the CCA software stack architecture. Their central point is that having the RMM be "part of the firmware" rather than "part of the hypervisor" is going to cause a rerun of all the issues we've seen with dubious and non-upgradable vendor code in EL3. Secondly, having the fixed API between the hypervisor and the RMM restricts to least-common-denominator and provides no room for experimentation and optimizations. They want an architected way to deploy an RMM at boot time. * Handling complex guest exits with eBPF Will Deacon presented what he described as "conference driven development" -- an interesting prototype of having device models in the host kernel that are implemented in eBPF. This (in theory) gives you the performance gains of an in-kernel device without it putting a lot of C code onto the security boundary between the guest and host. * Challenges Revisited in Supporting Virt CPU Hotplug on architectures that don't Support CPU Hotplug (like ARM64) James Morse (Arm) and Salil Mehta (Huawei) presented on CPU hotplug. The underlying problem here remains that Arm has no hardware hotplug handling, so there's no clear model for what hotplug on a VM should look like. Cloud vendors have an obvious desire for the x86-style tooling to Just Work on Arm too. The gap between "we have a prototype that seems to work" and "upstreamable maintainable code" has not yet been bridged, though... * QEMU Arm CPU models and KVM Cornelia Huck (RedHat) had a talk that was intended as a statement of the problem rather than a proposed solution. At the moment we only let a KVM guest see the same CPU type as the host and don't have a mechanism for presenting a subset of features to it. KVM is about to get support for letting the VMM define what the guest should see in the ID registers, but how should we expose that to QEMU users without ending up with a thousand command line sub-options to turn on and off every architectural FEAT_FOO? And how do we deal with errata workarounds, which the guest currently selects based on the MIDR value? As usual, we held the QEMU Summit (an hour-long maintainer discussion mostly about process and organizational issues) during KVM Forum. I still need to write up the minutes for this, but they'll be published on the qemu-devel list shortly. thanks -- PMM

Need emit_expr to write right shifted value.

by zac.walker＠linaro.org

Hi, In binutils I need to write an offset between two symbols shifted right by 2 bits. This offset is written to the xdata section. My code currently looks like this: exp.X_op = O_subtract; exp.X_add_symbol = symbol1; exp.X_op_symbol = symbol2; emit_expr (&exp, 2); This works fine but obviously the result value is not shifted. Anyone have a good option is to shift the output of emit_expr at write time? I cannot use resolve_expression because the symbols do not have correct addresses at the time this code executes. Any help appreciated, Zac

Hello, # TCWG CI — GDB - Changed tcwg_gnu-build.sh to apply GDB testsuite patch to avoid infinite loop in tcwg_gdb_check--master-arm jobs, while it isn't committed upstream. - Started investigating corrupt gdb.sum.1 file in tcwg_gdb_check--master-arm jobs. I can't reproduce it by manually running the CI's "make check-gdb" command line, nor by using ABE. I can reproduce it with tcwg_gnu-build.sh though. - Came up with validate_failures.py change to make it cope with the corrupt gdb.sum.1 file, while the underlying cause isn't known. Submitted the change upstream. # TCWG Infrastructure - Reviewed some Gerrit requests for our CI scripts. # Misc - Did some travel planning for Linaro Employee Meeting and GNU Tools Cauldron. -- Thiago

[ACTIVITY] Report for week #22

by Thiago Jung Bauermann

Hello, # TCWG CI — GDB - Continued investigating issue with GDB on armhf-linux about getting SIGILL when trying to detect shared library loading/unloading. Noticed that the problem happens only in tests that use the distro's toolchain (either because they're for a language we don't build in ABE gcc, or because GDB itself is built with the distro toolchain), so the impact isn't as widespread as I initially thought. It still frequently causes trouble for our CI loop though. Working on a fix. - Investigated and fixed loop in gdb.reverse/step-reverse.exp that was causing tcwg_gdb_check--master-arm-build jobs to get stuck, as reported by Maxim. Posted patch to the GDB mailing list. # TCWG Infrastructure - Reviewed Gerrit requests about testing mailing list patches in our CI. -- Thiago

Hello, # TCWG CI — GDB - Investigating issue in CI jobs where touching all C files causes GDB to show a warning about the source being newer than the executable. This interferes with a few GDB tests. - Continued investigating issue with GDB on armhf-linux about getting SIGILL when trying to detect shared library loading/unloading. Found out that the GDB testsuite binaries are using the distro's ld.so rather than the one built by ABE and which is the one expected to be used. Because we don't have debuginfo installed for the distro's ld.so, we hit the GDB bug in armhf-linux. The ld.so built by ABE has debuginfo and would avoid hitting the issue. # TCWG Infrastructure - Reworked CI job to sanity check tcwg_gnu_fast_check_{gcc,gdb} and posted new version for review. - Reviewed some Gerrit requests for jenkins-scripts and ABE. -- Thiago
