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

== Progress == * LLD Port: - Got hello world running. -- Needed a horrible hack to make lld output PLT and GOT entries for unresolved weak references with default visibility. - Wrote up in Jira the major areas of work that would be needed for a useful port. - Started putting in changes cleanly and writing tests for them. - Currently hitting a few problems with llvm-mc. I can't generate the relocations I need to test the linker. The hello world test case used mainly GCC library objects. -- Most serious is not emitting R_ARM_BASE_PREL for .word _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE - (label+8) == Plan == * On holiday Monday and Tuesday * LLVM MC See how easy it would be to add missing features to llvm-mc as it would allow me to write more tests. * LLD Complete the test cases for the code I've added. Take stock of where the lld port is and decide where to go from there. Options are: - Send an RFC upstream with what I have. It is not sufficient to run hello world but should be relatively uncontroversial. - Cleanly implement the emit the unresolved weak references in the PLT and GOT so hello world will work out of the box on ARM. - Keep going until I've got Thumb2 support so I don't have to use ARM only static libraries to make hello world working. There is obviously a trade off between having a useful linker and the patch size getting out of hand.

== Progress== * Remove exit-on-error flag from CodeGen tests [TCWG-604] [5/10] - This is a follow-up of TCWG-592: when changing the diag handler, some of the tests started to fail, so we had to add an exit-on-error flag to preserve the old behaviour until we can fix the tests. - Last week's patch fixing the MIR tests (PR27770) - still in upstream review - Last week's patch fixing an AMDGPU test (PR27762) - committed upstream - Last week's patch fixing a BPF test (PR27766) - committed upstream - Submitted another patch fixing a BPF test (PR27767) - committed upstream - Submitted another patch fixing two other BPF tests (PR27768/9) - in upstream review - Investigating one of the AMDGPU tests (PR27761) * Use git worktree in llvm helper scripts [TCWG-587] [4/10] - Started a RFC and a wiki page about the new workflow [1] - People seem to be in favour of it, but there are still some TODOs left before we can merge * Misc [1/10] - Meetings, buildbots == Plan == * Remove exit-on-error flag from CodeGen tests [TCWG-604] - Submit a patch for the AMDGPU test (PR27761) - More investigations on the ARM test (PR27765) * Use git worktree in llvm helper scripts [TCWG-587] - Finish the final touches and have a proper review [1] https://collaborate.linaro.org/display/LLVM/Git+Worktree+Proposal

Re: toolchain fetch issues

by Gujulan Elango, Hari Prasath (H.)

Sorry for hitting the wrong mailing list. OK I will check with HTTP instead of HTTPS. Thanks for your time & help.

We only know how to fix compiler problems here on the linaro-toolchain list. I did confirm that I can download the file OK, both via wget and via chrome.. I noticed that the https support on releases.linaro.org is not working, and I had to use http instead, but it isn't clear if that is related to your problem. Jim
