== Progress == * Divmod patch - Trying to regain knowledge about the SelectionDAG infrastructure - Working with Tim and Joey, got a patch working, but seen some failures in test-suite - Will investigate and submit when all is clear * Lencod in LNT - Bug is a mix of ByVal with wrong spill offset, teams interacting - Bug fixed by a side effect of another change, can't guarantee future stability * CBuild - Patch merged, fired another LLVM benchmark, which failed the same way - Not sure how to proceed here... - Should I dig deep on the old CBuild? - Or should I wait for CBuild2? * Release Maintenance - Talks about maintenance of old/current releases sparking on the list - Bots, tests, benchmarks, release process will have to be followed for those releases - Binary & API compatibility kept, performance doesn't matter much, only serious bugs fixed - This will increase the cost of background duty on our team * Other - Reviewing some more patches - Checking impact of a new alias analysis in the loop vectorizer, all good - EuroLLVM 2014 meeting - Long discussions about pre-UAL support in LLVM: Short answer: no. - Someone else will look at PerfDB analysis, one less thing to do - Got the Buildbot Pandas home, will look at them next week == Issues == * After using all my RAM all the time, for a week, I found a fault on it which prompted kernel panic and stopped my laptop from booting. Luckily, it was just one of the two chips, and even better, it has a lifetime guarantee! But I'll only get a new one after Connect... :( == Plan == * Finish implementation AEABI divmod/udivmod calls * Carefully analyse what's the best configuration for the pandas and produce a pre-packed image * NOT put them back before they're stable, snapshot a known good configuration * But put TWO pandas as self-hosting (and leave Galina's alone) Time allowing... * Check why Phoronix result pages are not working * Write about target-specific tests on TestingGuide.rst * Write a thing or two about the optimization levels in LLVM for the official docs

2013.06 issues with semi-hosting on Foundation Model w/ gcc

by rorycollins＠hushmail.com

Still having the issue of FM/semi-hosting not catching seg-faults using 2013.06. With "aem-ve.specs", a fault seems to call main() repeatedly. With "dimon.specs", FM hangs. Any ideas how to properly compile/deal with faults in semi-hosting mode? thanks, Rory === hello.c === #include <stdio.h> int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { printf("hello.\n"); * ((unsigned int *) 0) = 0; // cause seg-fault return 0; } === compile/run === .../gcc-linaro-aarch64-none-elf-4.8-2013.06_linux/bin/aarch64-none-elf-gcc -specs=aem-ve.specs -march=armv8-a -c hello.c .../gcc-linaro-aarch64-none-elf-4.8-2013.06_linux/bin/aarch64-none-elf-gcc -o hello -specs=aem-ve.specs -march=armv8-a hello.o .../Foundation_v8 --image hello --quiet --semihost-cmd=hello hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. ...
