The Linaro Toolchain Working Group (TCWG) is pleased to announce the 2016.04 snapshot of the Linaro GCC 5 source package. This monthly snapshot[1] is based on FSF GCC 5.3+svn234898 and includes performance improvements and bug fixes backported from mainline GCC. This snapshot contents will be part of the 2016.05 stable [1] quarterly release.

== Progress == Transition week into Linaro toolchain group from ARM to replace Bernie [*] - Some ARM handover work done. - Started looking into https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=24350 (TCWG-466 ADRL support) -- Checked behaviour of ADRL on armasm and GNU as -- Worked out what I need to do in LLVM to make ADRL work, looks like nothing hugely complicated but a lot of plumbing through various layers. - Started reading about AArch64 TLS descriptor implementation. I'm familiar with the AArch32 traditional model so I need to bridge the gap a bit. == Plans == - Post some review comments on Adhemeval's TLS patch with the hope of unblocking it. - Start implementing support for ADRL in the integrated assembler == Planned Absences == Holiday 18th - 22nd April (Attending ACCU conference in Bristol). I think I've put that in the shared holiday calendar correctly. [*] Hello to everyone I didn't manage to meet at Linaro Connect. I've been working in ARM's proprietary compiler team, with much of that time spent on armlink and the other non-compiler tools.

# Progress # * TCWG-167, ARM reverse debugging bug fixes. [4/10] Four patches are committed. All FAILs are fixed if test case is compiled with -fomit-frame-pointer. Some FAILs when -fno-omit-frame-pointer are caused by epilogue unwinder doesn't parse epilogue correctly if FP is involved. File TCWG-562 to track it. * TCWG-545, TCWG-547, patches are pending. Maintainer is busy on something else. * Triage the regression gdb.base/jit.exp. [1/10] We need a pending patch series to address this issue. Ask Pedro how to review them. * TCWG-561, handle unavailable memory during frame unwinding. [3/10] Think about it and write a prototype. * Misc, patches review and meeting, [2/10]. # Plan # * Take a look at the slow native arm-linux-gnueabihf gdb test. * TCWG-562, Tweak epilogue unwinder to handle FP. * TCWG-545, TCWG-547, ping. * TCWG-561, finish the prototype. -- Yao

Linaro toolchain: libstdc++.so: file format not recognized; treating as linker script

by Gunnar Arndt

My dear friends, I'm trying to build C++ code for Linux running on am ARM Cortex A8 (TI AM335x). For a first try, I'm using the simplest program I can think of: /* main.cpp */ int main() { return 0; } Under Linux with the 'normal' GCC, that works fine, but under Windows 7 with the Linaro toolchain, it fails with the following message: C:\firedect\dev\workspace\Test-Linux-ARM_1> "\Program Files (x86)\GNU Tools ARM Embedded\gcc-linaro-4.9-2016.02-i686-ming w32_arm-linux-gnueabi\bin\arm-linux-gnueabi-g++.exe" main.cpp c:/program files (x86)/gnu tools arm embedded/gcc-linaro-4.9-2016.02-i686-mingw32_arm-linux-gnueabi/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabi/4.9.4/../../../../arm-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld.exe:c:/program files (x86)/gnu tools arm embedded/gcc-linaro-4.9-2016.02-i686-mingw32_arm-linux-gnueabi/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabi/4.9.4/../../../../arm-linux-gnueabi/lib/libstdc++.so: file format not recognized; treating as linker script c:/program files (x86)/gnu tools arm embedded/gcc-linaro-4.9-2016.02-i686-mingw32_arm-linux-gnueabi/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabi/4.9.4/../../../../arm-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld.exe:c:/program files (x86)/gnu tools arm embedded/gcc-linaro-4.9-2016.02-i686-mingw32_arm-linux-gnueabi/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabi/4.9.4/../../../../arm-linux-gnueabi/lib/libstdc++.so:1: syntax error collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status C:\firedect\dev\workspace\Test-Linux-ARM_1> "\Program Files (x86)\GNU Tools ARM Embedded\gcc-linaro-5.3-2016.02-i686-ming w32_arm-linux-gnueabihf\bin\arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++.exe" main.cpp c:/program files (x86)/gnu tools arm embedded/gcc-linaro-5.3-2016.02-i686-mingw32_arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabihf/5.3.1/../../../../arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/ld.exe:c:/program files (x86)/gnu tools arm embedded/gcc-linaro-5.3-2016.02-i686-mingw32_arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabihf/5.3.1/../../../../arm-linux-gnueabihf/lib/libstdc++.so: file format not recognized; treating as linker script c:/program files (x86)/gnu tools arm embedded/gcc-linaro-5.3-2016.02-i686-mingw32_arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabihf/5.3.1/../../../../arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/ld.exe:c:/program files (x86)/gnu tools arm embedded/gcc-linaro-5.3-2016.02-i686-mingw32_arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabihf/5.3.1/../../../../arm-linux-gnueabihf/lib/libstdc++.so:1: syntax error collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status As you can see, I have tested two versions of the toolchain, which show the same behavior. Do you have any idea what's going wrong here? I'd appreciate any help you can provide! -- Kind regards, Gunnar Arndt

Another weird behavior with arm gcc 5.3

by fengwei.yin

Hi list, I hit another weird problem after use gcc 5.3 (If I use gcc 4.9, there is no any issue) with android. With arm gcc 5.3, the C++ apps crash in one class constructor call. And gdb shows some vtbl items of the class are not relocated. With arm gcc 4.9, if set breakpoint in that constructor, we could see the vtbl items of the class are relocated. And Yes. I know the android bionic loader take response to do relocation. But if it works with gcc 4.9, I suppose bionic loader work well (unless gcc 5.3 create some new situation not handled by it). I attached the vtbl dump in gdb for gcc 5.3 and 4.9 both. We could see all valid entries in vtbl are relocated in 4.9 dump. But not all entries in vtbl are relocated in 5.3 dump (the address is not started with 0xf). Suggestions/hints are welcome. Thanks a lot. Regards Yin, Fengwei
