Hello, We have cloned the meta-linaro layer and when we build,we are facing some issues when the do_fetch() task is executing for the gcc-source-linaro-5.1 package. I enabled the -v option of wget and I am able to see the download starts and fails randomly after progressing to some extent i.e. 10% or 27%. The connection is reset by peer and wget exits. I tried increasing the timeout option of wget as well. Any idea what's wrong. Find attached the log of the error. Thanks & Regards, Hari Prasath

missing gold --be8 support

by Jim Wilson

Cisco is trying to use clang/lto on big-endian arm, which apparently requires gold, and gold does not support the --be8 option which is required for ARMv7 big-endian support. Does anyone here care about this? Umesh Kalappa asked about this on the binutils mailing list https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2016-05/msg00209.html and discovered that it is a known bug reported 5 years ago https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13213 Jim

[ACTIVITY] Week 20

by Yvan Roux

== Progress == o Extended validation (7/10) * Investigate GDB instabilities: - branch tracing issue are due to builder feature support - Our 2 old builders, which don't support it, removed from x86 validation pool * Benchmarking: - Looked at Lava instance API and lava-tool usage and prerequisite - Implementing comparison script o Misc (3/10) * Various meetings and discussions. == Plan == o Continue on validation/benchmarking o Catch up with upstream work.

=== This Week === Support for watchpoint un-alligned watchpoint addresses on LLDB AArch64 [TCWG-367] [3/10] -- Made changes to NativeRegisterContext_arm64 to support multiple watchpoint slot for a single watch address. -- Enabled unaligned watchpoints and experimented with resulting false positives. LLDB Chromebook Test Stability [TCWG-563] [3/10] -- Migrated local builder to Ubuntu 16.04 xenial -- Ran LLDB testsuite with GCC 5.x.x on chromebook, raspberryPI2 -- Updated LLDB testsuite makefile.rulez to use correct cross AR and OBJCOPY LLDB buildbot updates and maintenance [TCWG-241] [2/10] -- Investigation of LLDB buildbot slave failure -- Implemented stale log deletion mechanism by making sure we keep only 10 most recent logs. LLDB upstream collaboration and Arm/AArch64 Linux port maintenance [1/10] -- Verify patches under review -- Analyzed TestTopLevelExprs on LLDB arm failure and committed xfail. Miscellaneous [1/10] -- Meetings, emails, discussions etc. -- Travel bookings for connect and TCWG sprint. === Next Week === Close out TCWG-231 (LLDB bring up and bug fixing on HiKey 96Board) -- Run and comparison of AArch64 LLDB test results vs hikey showing less than 5% difference. Close out LLDB Chromebook Test Stability [TCWG-563] -- Make sure there are no failures for which we dont know the underlying reason. -- Report remaining bugs and commit xfails upstream. Support for watchpoint un-alligned watchpoint addresses on LLDB AArch64 [TCWG-367] -- Further testing of false positive results due to allowing un-alligned watch-points. LLDB buildbot updates and maintenance [TCWG-241] -- Figure out difference of test results between local and remote chromebooks. -- Figure out a way to hide unused test slots by buildbot factory. Miscellaneous -- Migrate laptop to ubuntu 16.04 in hope of better driver support. -- Portugal visa and travel booking

== Progress == * Validation - cleanup - reviews - asserting ABE master vs stable results - stopped investigation on a huge number of unexpected regressions, maybe caused by builders crashes - created a Jenkins job able to detect the base GCC branch, in order to select the right libc/binutils version - found why ABE master showed regressions with the _Pragma3 GCC test. Fix under review. - investigating recent, numerous build failures * Backports - updated backport to fix bug #2185 after Kugan analysis - drafted a script to parse the spreadsheet and generate the backflip commands as appropriate * GCC - reported a couple of regressions on trunk - Neon intrinsics tests update: committed. We are now ready to remove neon-testgen.ml == Next == * Validation - cleanup - armv8l vs arm - ABE master vs stable * GCC - trunk monitoring - more on AdvSIMD intrinsics

=== Progress === TCWG-591 MOVW incorrectly allowed on ARM v5 committed upstream TCWG-595 LLD port to ARM architecture I am getting close to being able to run hello world built with lld. I'm converging 1 bug at a time. - The PLT handling code is working and the loader can execute the image and starts the .init function. - Currently failing in the weak call to __gmon_start__. At present lld is removing undefined weak references from executables instead of passing them on for the dynamic loader to resolve. This may not be necessary on x86 but it is necessary on ARM. -- Just finished a hack that should make this work, although it will need some tidying up. === Plan === Get hello world working and then take stock of what I've learned and come up with a plan in Jira for what needs to be done.

== Progress == * Add a diag handler for llc so it doesn't exit on the first error it finds [TCWG-592] [1/10] - Fixed and rebased the patch, it has been committed upstream * Inline assembly constraints support for ARM [TCWG-560] [1/10] - Rebased the patch, it has been committed upstream * Remove exit-on-error flag from CodeGen tests [TCWG-604] [4/10] - 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. - Submitted a patch fixing the MIR tests (PR27770) - in upstream review - Submitted a patch fixing an AMDGPU test (PR27762) - in upstream review - Submitted a patch fixing a BPF test (PR27766) - in upstream review - Investigated the ARM test (PR27765) * Use git worktree in llvm helper scripts [TCWG-587] [3/10] - Working on a prototype * Misc [1/10] - Meetings, buildbots, IRC issues - Got LLVM commit access, yay! == Plan == * Remove exit-on-error flag from CodeGen tests [TCWG-604] - Fix the remaining ARM, BPF and AMDGPU tests (unfortunately the ARM test seems a bit more involved, so I might pick out the others first just to get them out of the way) * Use git worktree in llvm helper scripts [TCWG-587] - Continue prototyping, start a RFC on it next week
