New IRC Channel for Linaro Toolchain Working Group

by Matthew Gretton-Dann

All, During Connect the suggestion was made that each working group should have its own IRC Channel for discussions and topics relating to the group in particular (as opposed to #linaro which is 'generic' Linaro conversations). Therefore I have just set up #linaro-tcwg on Freenode for the Toolchain Working Group. This channel is public and open to anyone who wants to talk with the TCWG group about anything toolchain related. Thanks, Matt -- Matthew Gretton-Dann Toolchain Working Group, Linaro

[PATCH] omap_i2c: don't end I2C transfer immediately when STP bit is set

by Francesco Lavra

When the OMAP I2C controller is operated in master mode, setting the STP bit in the CON register instructs the controller to generate an I2C stop condition only after the programmed number of bytes has been sent on the I2C bus. The current code in QEMU ends the I2C transfer without first sending the pending data instead. Fix the above issue, and let the I2C transfer be ended in omap_i2c_fifo_run(), after the count of bytes to send has reached zero. Signed-off-by: Francesco Lavra <francescolavra.fl(a)gmail.com> --- Without this patch, the controller driver in Linux is unable to send data on the I2C bus, and when the controller triggers an IRQ after having started an I2C transfer, the XRDY flag in the STAT register remains always asserted, leading to an endless loop which eventually results in a kernel oops. hw/i2c/omap_i2c.c | 4 ---- 1 files changed, 0 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/hw/i2c/omap_i2c.c b/hw/i2c/omap_i2c.c index cfaac07..17d4037 100644 --- a/hw/i2c/omap_i2c.c +++ b/hw/i2c/omap_i2c.c @@ -521,10 +521,6 @@ static void omap_i2c_write(void *opaque, hwaddr addr, omap_i2c_fifo_run(s); } omap_i2c_interrupts_update(s); - } else if (value & 2) { /* STP, but not STT */ - i2c_end_transfer(s->bus); - s->control &= ~0x0602; /* MST | TRX | STP */ - s->count_cur = s->count; } } break; -- 1.7.5.4

[ACTIVITY] Week 26

by Renato Golin

== 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

== Progress == * AArch64 LTO and PGO support. Tweaked make file to run coremark on V8/openembedded model Experimenting with PGO runs for coremark. * AAarch64 testing Set up Cross build and test in V8 model for GCC testsuites on one of workstation in lab.
