Hello experts,
I don't know whether this is the place to ask this question.Please forgive
if i am wrong.
I am trying to cross-compile Eglibc,(which i thought is similar to the
glibc) library with Linaro tool chain.My aim is to cross-compile the
library and add it with the tool-chain( i assumed that Linaro doesn't ahve
the eglibc libraries by itself).
.
I referred to the link http://www.eglibc.org/archives/patches/msg00078.html
(README.cross-compiling of the libc) and did the following.
I thought that binutils is not required as the tool chain itself contains
the loader, assembler etc.(which are the most important in the binutils).So
i skipped that step.(i am not sure whether this is right.please correct me
if i am wrong).
I did the below steps as in the above link.
1) Copied the Linux Kernel Headers
2) EGLIBC Headers and Preliminary Objects
2.1) configuring the Eglibc headers by the below steps.

2.2) compilation
make install-headers install_root=$sysroot install-bootstrap-headers=yes
But following is the error i get.

me...

Hi there!
I need some help with how to handle this bug:

It looks like an improvement suggestion more than a bug.

*Automatically save preprocessed source on ICE*In order to help with bug
reporting, gcc could save the preprocessed source of the unit that caused
the ICE, so one can just pick it up and attach it to bug reports instead of
trying to reproduce it manually.
Hi Peter. I've had a poke about in qemu-linaro, OpenStack, and
libvirt to get a feel for the KVM integration work. My scratch notes
are here:
https://wiki.linaro.org/MichaelHope/Sandbox/QEMUA15GuestNotes
I'm feeling happy about the integration. The parts that I've seen
have good separation, are architecture neutral, and have some ARM
support. We can prototype using virtual x86 based masters and QEMU
TCG based compute instances.
I've seen a few bugs and assumptions: OpenStack defaults to virtio,
boot=hda, and fixed kernel args; and libvirt can't parse the the
qemu-linaro version string. There will be more.
I'll feed this into the KVM 1.0 task list and share it.

Hi Michael,
So, I gave my best shot at:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/gcc-linaro/+bug/914703
Kind of similar to the one in your walk-through, but I couldn't actually
reproduce on the version reported.
Could you please check if this looks OK?

Hi Åsa. I've triaged a bug and written down my notes on the way. See:
https://wiki.linaro.org/MichaelHope/Sandbox/TriageRunThrough
This one turned out to be easy but at least you have the basics.
Could you triage the bug for real and see what I've missed?
I'm unsatisfied with the result on that bug. The fault is in the
Ubuntu Natty compiler which we've long since fixed in Linaro GCC. It
would be nice if we could point the bug reporter to an updated GCC.
Ask Marcin and Matthias what they think.

Summary:
* Enhance crosstool-ng build process.
Details:
1. crosstool-ng patches:
* Reproduce the build process by following the README and enhance
the document.
* Update .config to strip all toolchain executables
* Replace harded-coded VERSION by reading config file.
* Remove host libiberty.a
* Patch on how to strip debug sections is in discussion.
2. Update the crosstool-ng based embedded toolchain build scripts
according to the review comments. And replace most of hard-coded
config by reading them from .config.
3. Unexpected build fail for gcc 4.7/trunk from crosstool-ng due to
unsupported ENDIAN_LDFLAG "-EL", which is used in "LDFLAGS_FOR_TARGET"
to build libstdc++. (LDFLAGS_FOR_TARGET seams not used in gcc 4.6).
Need more investigation.
Plan:
* Fix the binary build related bugs.
* Ramp-up on gcc.
Planned Absence:
* Jan 21-29, 2012 Chinese Spring Festival
Best regards!

Continued work on 64-bit shifts. I've tidied up most of the nastiness I
had in my first attempt at this work, unified the logic into fewer
places, and fixed the one logic error that I knew about. I had a
mysterious reload bug that just wouldn't go away, but having stared at
it for some time I've decided that what I was doing wasn't the best
option in any case, and the new way seems to work. I still have the
problem that register-allocation prefers to allocate the values in
core-registers, even when it would seem to me to work better in NEON.
This maybe because the shift amount must be negated in some cases, and
there isn't a neon instruction for that.
Continued trying to use LAVA to do builds. Unfortunately this seems to
have hit against a lava-test bug. Filed as lp:915915.
Hi,
* built linaro binary toolchain using Michaels crosstool-ng environment:
* disabled multiarch and pkg-config
* uses eglibc 2.13 (due to RPC headers)
* using Linux kernel version 2.6.32.48 (longterm)
* debugged why /sbin/init fails when using the linaro binary toolchain:
* the loader and libc of the binary toolchain is build for armv7
* the binaries (init, busybox, ...) are linked against this glibc and
using the libdl-2.13.so of the binary toolchain
* it causes the boot to fails due to illegal insn caused by the dl
* built the minimal image for armv7-a:
* use the vexpress_defconfig of linaro 3.1 tree linux-linaro-3.1.git
(instead of the OE vesatilebp kernel)
* boots fine using the vexpress-a9 QEMU system model
* sato image (X and gtk+ apps) for armv7-a:
* Tremor (vorbis): inline assembly only supports ARM mode
quick workaround: undefine _ARM_ASSEM_ to fall back to C
* pulseaudio/libatomics-ops: inline asm that only supports ARM mode
quick workaround: use the latest version from upstream
* gtk+_2.24.8 fails due to the libstdc++ libtool archive
easy fix: delete the *la files (just like most of the distributors)
the *la files prevent the the binary toolchain from being "relocatable"
* sato image boots and shows the gui but the X resolution is higher and
the X cursor behaves strange (probably not a miscompile but a
difference of the linaro kernel)

http://l4dev.org/
They're currently running the 11.12 LEB on a Versatile Express. The
project overview:
http://l4dev.org/codezero_overview
talks about their 'hyperswitch' method to reduce the
para-virtualisation overhead and reduce the number of changes to the
Linux kernel.

Hi Åsa. Well, the first proposals have arrived. I've cc'ed this to
linaro-toolchain so we have a record.
First, visit:
http://ex.seabright.co.nz/helpers/proposals
and see there are new merge requests from Ulrich with new results.
Next, login:
http://ex.seabright.co.nz/helpers/login
Your login is your Launchpad OpenID login "https://launchpad.net/~asa-sandahl"
After logging in, go back to the proposals page.
See that the fwprop-subreg merge request has a i686 and x86_64 result.
The i686 one is fine so click 'Record' and follow your nose. The
x86_64 is interesting - the fault might be real. Click 'Record'.
Note the subject line has 'regressed' in it. Ulrich will have to
investigate.
The lp-879725 results look fine so record both of those. Scanning
down the page shows that everything else is recorded so you're done!
The tool is a bit slow so don't be surprised if an operation takes ~10
s. The tool is backed by a cache so you won't see the results for ~2
hours.

Hi Michael,
I can't remember if I told you before, but I shall be away at the
CodeSourcery (Ok, Mentor Graphics's ESD TOOLS) annual meeting most of
next week.
I ought to be back at work on Friday. In the meantime I shall be reading
email, but not spending much time on Linaro work.
I can probably still get the GCC release process done, but if you'd
prefer Ramana did it this month then that's fine with me.

Hi there. Linaro is about what's next and, as part of this, we should
backport any reasonable Cortex-A15 changes to our 4.6 branch.
Richard and Matthew, could you let us know directly when new patches
from ARM land upstream?
We're already doing this but I thought I'd say it out loud.

Hello,
I'm trying to build the Linaro GCC from source on an x86_64 Fedora 16 box.
I'm using as a guide a wiki entry I found in linaro.org site [1] that
explains how to build a native version of the compiler. But instead of a
native version I want to be able to cross-compile ARM binaries for my
target machine.
This is what I tried:
[javier@munra src]$ wget -c
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/86993387/gcc-linaro-4.6-2011.12.tar.bz2

But got this error:

Before trying to compile I've installed the libgmp, libmpfr and arm cross

I've taken a stab at the medium term requirements for KVM on ARM:
https://wiki.linaro.org/WorkingGroups/ToolChain/Specs/KVMEpic
I haven't looked outside Linaro so apologies if this overlaps with
other people's plans.
Peter, this is high level and hopefully matches what's in your head.
I want to use this to do a project plan, see if it can be done in 6-9
calendar months, and see if we need more people. Are there any
implementation details that we should call out, similar to calling out
virtio and UEFI?
Rusty, this should tell you more about where we're going.
Mounir, you, Peter, and I should turn this into a basic project plan.

Continued work on getting GCC to build on LAVA. I've ironed out a few
more bugs from my test scripts, but it's slow going because a test runs
takes a long time to run, and there are very few useful error messages
when something goes wrong.
Wrote, posted, and committed a patch to fix the "120" testsuite bug I
encountered last month. Basically the GCC testsuite's "headmerge-1"
testcase would have failed from now until September because a sloppy
regex happening to match "120" in the toolchain version string's
snapshot date. I've also backported it to upstream 4.6 and posted a
merge request for Linaro 4.6.
Continued running benchmarks for the generic tuning project.
Continued looking at optimizing 64-bit shifts. No real progress this
week though.
* Other
Monday: Public holiday.
Tuesday: Vacation.
Caught up on a mountain of email.
Summary:

Hi Ramana. You were right about being able to do operations on
intrinsic types. Instead of doing the admittedly made up:
int16x4_t foo2(int16x4_t a, int16x4_t b)
{
int16x4_t ca = vdup_n_s16(0.2126*256);
int16x4_t cb = vdup_n_s16(0.7152*256);
return vadd_s16(vmul_s16(ca, a), vmul_s16(cb, b));
}
you can do:
int16x4_t foo3(int16x4_t a, int16x4_t b)
{
int16x4_t ca = vdup_n_s16(0.2126*256);
int16x4_t cb = vdup_n_s16(0.7152*256);
return ca*a + cb*b;
}
which is more readable and, as an added bonus, generates the
multiply-and-accumulate that I missed when using intrinsics. Nice.

Hi,
* Android
* migrated my linaro android build environment
* did a small change to the debuggerd patch (thanks Sylvain)
* OpenEmbedded
* the linaro binary toolchain uses multiarch paths while OE doesn't
-> setup a workaround to make it look like a classic one
* however, I think what I really want is to build the libc instead
of using the one provided by the binary external toolchain
* The core-image-minimal still doesn't boot properly because 'init'
doesn't come properly
Regards
Ken
The remaining change for neon-strided-load-extract is to allow fwprop.c
to propagate:
(set (reg X) (subreg (reg Y) N))
even if no further simplifications are possible. I posted the original
patch for comments here:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gcc.patches/246180/
and fixed the problem that H.J. spotted. I wasn't entirely happy with
the benchmark results though, so it never became an RFA.

* fwprop.c (propagate_rtx): Also set PR_CAN_APPEAR for subregs.

These pass all the context tests I could find, including QEMUs coroutine

them. I posted
them with comments and a question to libc-ports; I'll try and chase follow
ups.

* I posted the strchr and strlen routines to eglibc (libc-ports)
* On strchr the question of whether it was worth using the longer version

up. I posted
some stats, observations etc - and there is still a discussion on
going about it.
* For strlen, rth noted the same trick that I'd originally seen in newlib
(and for which RichardS and Ramana had suggested) of a quicker end-of-string
sequence using clz. I'd avoided this because I'd originally seen it
in newlib and
didn't want to copy it; but since 3 people have individually suggested it it
would seem using.

Thank you all for a fun & interesting year! I'm sure many of us

while it's still live to check for any replies to any patches/comments etc.

Subject: New question: problem in installing Linaro tools on Ask Linaro
Date: Mon, 26 Dec 2011 21:31:57 -0800 (PST)

Hello doanac,
chandrakala <http://ask.linaro.org/users/172/chandrakala> has just
posted a new question on Ask Linaro, entitled problem in installing
Linaro tools
<http://ask.linaro.org/questions/456/problem-in-installing-linaro-tools>
and tagged "/linaro <http://ask.linaro.org/tags/linaro/> installation
<http://ask.linaro.org/tags/installation/>/". Here's what it says:
Hi all,
Iam new to linux and gnu tools. i have downloaded linaro gnu tools
to install cortex-a8 on my ubuntu machine. iam able to successfully
install gcc tools. But when i try to install arm tools it is
throwing error. following are the commands used to install gnu tools
and the error it is generated
mckala@mckala:~/Desktop/gstreamer/gcc_objdir$

with this gnu tools installation is completed and i did not get any
error. when i used the following command to install cross compiler,
it is giving error
mckala@mckala:~/Desktop/gstreamer/gcc_objdir$ make
The error is

Can any one please help on this.
Thanks in advance.
Don't forget to come over and cast your vote.
Thanks,

P.S. You can always fine-tune which notifications you receive here

------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've posted all my WIP patches to this list over the last few days.
Please treat them kindly. :-) I've also tried to update the relevant
blueprints.
I pinged the 4.5 and 4.6 backports for lp736661 on gcc-patches last week,
then again this week, but there's obviously not likely to be much response
at this time of year. I therefore went ahead with the Linaro merges of
the branches rather than relying on them being committed to FSF branches
in time for next month's Linaro release. I'll continue to ping though.
If I've forgotten anything, or if you need more info, please don't
hesitate to ask. I'll continue to monitor my Linaro email address
as long as it remains active, although rdsandiford(a)googlemail.com
is likely to be a better bet.
With all that out of the way, I just wanted to say thank you to everyone
for making this a really enjoyable project to work on. It feels like
we managed to get through a fair number of new features, performance
improvements and bug fixes this year. I hope Linaro will be around
for a good few years yet and that it continues to go from strength
to strength.
Happy New Year, and all the best,
Richard
Here's the patch for sms-and-memory-dependencies. The idea is to bypass
the sched-deps.c {output,read,anti,true}_dependence tests altogether --
which is easy to do thanks to the note_mem_dep hook -- and instead handle
them in ddg.c. The ddg.c tests then use RTL loop iv analysis to try
to get longer distances on the memory dependencies. (Note that other
memory-related dependencies, such as those between volatile MEMs and
other volatile instructions, are still handled by sched-deps.c.)
Dependencies are now always created in pairs, so there's no need for
get_sched_window to set an upper bound when processing incoming MEM_DEPs,
or a lower bound when processing outgoing MEM_DEPs; we can rely on the
partnering edge to do that instead.
Richard

About three months ago, 4.7 stopped being able to optimise things like:
int *__restrict x = ...;
The (libav) loop microbenchmarks that I'd written used this construct
a lot, as an easy way of automatically generating a whole function
from a loop kernel.
I spent a while testing 4.7 with the restrict patch reverted, while
I caught up with my post-holiday email backlog and saw whether the
effect on this code was deliberate. I eventually realised it was,
so implemented a change that Ira had suggested: splitting out a
peak_loop_1 that takes all the restrict pointers as arguments.
I just realised that I never pushed that change back up to bzr,
so I've done it now.
Probably a write-only change, since I doubt anyone's going to be
using the benchmark again, but just in case :-)

This is my current 4.7 auto-inc-dec.c patch. I submitted an RFC in July:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gcc.patches/241779/
and updated the patch in line with the feedback I got. Steven Bosscher
sent some very useful comments in private email, so the update deals
with those as well as Bernd's public ones.
If we do go ahead with this rewrite, it depends on the A9 pipeline
description changes. I submitted some A8 and A9 changes here:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gcc.patches/244238/http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gcc.patches/244242/
but because I later noticed that the A9 didn't behave quite as I thought,
I decided not to apply them. Ramana asked around internally about what
the A9 actually does (thanks) and had some ideas.
The patch also relies on the MEM rtx_costs patch that I just posted:

Hi,
Thank you all for an interesting and pleasant experience. I am very
grateful to Linaro for the opportunity to meet and work with such an
amazing group of people. I wish you all the best, and hope to meet you
again (at least online).
You can find me at irar(a)il.ibm.com or ira.rsn(a)gmail.com.

Summary:
* Read armV7-A/R reference manual; crosstool-ng patches and wrapper scripts.
Details:
1. Patches for crosstool-ng:
* Fix symlink issue when CT_USE_SYSROOT is not enabled.
* Update sample/linaro-arm-none-eabi (baremetal) to disable
SYSROOT. So that both include and lib files are in the same dir.
2. Study armV7-A/R reference manual.
3. Validate embedded toolchain Dec. release.
4. Enhance the wrapper to use crosstool-ng for embedded toolchain.
Plan:
* Ramp-up on gcc.
Best regards!

Submitting patch for Bug #879725:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2011-12/msg01459.html
Looking at the performance results running SMS with automatic testing.
This is my last week in Linaro so I would also like to thank you all
for the interesting year -- it was a great experience for me to work
in this project. I wish you all good luck and happy holidays!

Hi,
OpenEmbedded-Core:
* No response on the CSL patches I posted to the ml yet
* khem says someone (other than me) needs to try them
* Linaro binary toolchain
* Runs on Oneiric-X86_64 after installing lsb-core
(interpreter: /lib/ld-lsb.so.3)
* The do_rootfs tasks fails with runtine dependecy issues when
using the external-linaro-toolchain_arm-2011.11.bb recipe.
When re-using my CSL 2011.03 recipe with the linaro toolchain
the error doesn't show up - strange.
* OE-Core build gets confused by the (arm-linux-gnueabi-)pkg-config
of the external linaro toolchain. As a workaround I just renamed
this script.
* The qemuarm MACHINE configuration uses "-march=armv5te -mno-thumb"
Since the linaro toolchain defaults to thumb and -mno-thumb has no
effect some inline assemblies are failing (i.e. on the umull insn).
GNU #47930 suggests using -marm instead -> OE-Core patch posted.
* Got the core-image-minimal to build, but it doesn't run yet
(I suspect some basic runtime dependencies like libc again)
* The build of the sato image fails
(seems libtool and/or C++ related - need to investigate)

Hi,
* Continued with comparison of eembc results for gcc4.4 and gcc 4.6 (FSF
and Linaro). Collecting results for 4.6 with loop-unrolling turned off.
* Working on a plotbench.py script that will use matplotlib for plotting
the results. Right now the script plots the geomean value, for instance for
eembc. I now try to make it plot all subtest as well. Then it should also
show relative improvements instead of just the numbers, and then also
sorted from best to worse. This script depends on Michaels script
libtabulate.py for transforming the tabulated file back to python records.
* Will be back January 9
/Regards

== GDB ==
* Ongoing work on remote support for "info proc" and core file
generation. Completed implementation of latest solution
via accessing arbitrary files on the remote site, only to
run into a fundamental design problem ... so it's probably
back to the previous approach. Discussion on the list is
ongoing.
* Fixed a GDB 7.4 test suite failure on ARM: PR tdep/12797
* Fixed another GBD 7.4 test suite failure on ARM, by enabling
pthread_t thread debugging on core files.
== GCC ==
* Patch review week.
Mit freundlichen Gruessen / Best Regards
