= Progress == * Core mark benchmark and report for PGO and PGO + LTO (2/10) Collected benchmark scores and report sent internally. Adding PGO benefits coremark. LTO seems to hurt. More runs and profiling next week. Tired few experiments with -funroll-all-loops and seems to benefit. * Misc [2/10] Internal meeting and 1-1 with Ryan and inline manger. Revisited and closed PR61442 Short week leave on 29 Sep, 2 and 3rd Oct (6/10). == Plan == * Coremark benchmark and profiling for PGO and PGO + LTO * Investigate PR 62308 * Setup Cbuildv2 build in internal machine.

by Rob Savoye

== Progress == * Fixed test infrastructure bugs (TCWG 1378 - 8/10). - Installed Foundation Model on all Hetzner machines so aarch64 bare metal testing works. - Refactored all board support files to eliminate duplication to reduce maintainance headaches. Fixed ldflags so now getting good results. - Backport job is working good now. - Worked on Gerrit/Jenkins integration, with the goal of having the notifications work *after* the test and validation is done. - More work on optimizing SSH connections by reducing extraneous commands in the test framework. - Recreated stable branch from master now that results are much better. * Meetings and Misc (2/10) * Fixed National Park internal wireless network, getting access to much better bandwidth than the crappy Guest one. :-) == Plan == * Escape Yosemite, hard during a great weather window, and being the only person in my group with a job... * Continue fixing remote testing support, merge "boards" branch into master, then make it stable after more testing.

by Charles Baylis

== Progress == Closed bug #405 (not a bug) NEON load/store . reworked patches not to do type-punning [9/10] . investigated alternative ways to solve poor code generation with array of vector types Started investigating NEON bugs 403, 418 [1/10] == Plan == NEON load/store - submit new patches, continue upstream discussion Try out validation infrastructure for my own patches

== Progres == * GCC trunk/4.9 cross-validation (CARD-647) (3/10) - aarch64 address sanitizer tests currently all fail at execution under qemu because they try to reserve 50GB of memory. Tried to push the limits with no success so far. - working on fixing support for testcases generating a shared lib - newly introduced abi_check for aarch64 fails on my side, probable testsuite configuration problem. * Linaro branches - updated backports spreadsheet - reviewed backports prepared by Yvan * Validation (3/10) - manually running builds+validations to compare master and chroot branches, see the diffs between static and dynamic libs in terms of PASS/FAIL, .... * Neon intrinsics tests (1/10) - No need to comply to the GNU coding style since it's imported from and existing testsuite. - only minor changes requested - should help having the 1st subset committed soon * Misc (3/10) - calls/meetings - bugzilla admin etc..

cbuild2 benchmarking - TCWG-360 [9/10] * Knocked off a lot of rough edges * Now working fairly robustly lowlevellock.h comments - CARD-341 [4/10] * Got a bit stuck trying to follow condvar locking * But wasn't really needed to describe the code in question LCA [10/10] LCA recovery day [2/10] Meetings/mail/etc [5/10] =Plan= cbuild2 benchmarking: * Push upstream for others to look at * Sort out storage story for benchmark sources and results * Try to get working on a Juno (in LAVA, therefore on OE) * Look at our Jenkins scripts with a view to figuring out how to hook in * Work through list of bits 'n' pieces to fix - + Don't scrape logs (bad for server) + Don't fail on network timeouts + Extra target control knobs - disable ASLR, set a nasty nice value, maybe hugepages + Set appropriate flags automatically for cross-builds
