LLVM-579 Implement -fix-cortex-a8 in LLD. Keeping up with review
comments, I think this is getting close now.
Connect slides moving forwards. Now have 2 out of 3 presenters done.
Rest of the week taken up by investigations and LLD reviews.
Progress:
* VIRT-65 [QEMU upstream maintainership]
+ implemented and sent patchset for semihosting v2 API
+ target-arm pullreq, patch review, etc
+ got the QEMU Summit invite list finalised and sent invites
+ some internal meetings
thanks

== Progress ==
* Investigate running benchmarks in containers [TCWG-1513]
- Finally merged, after a few more iterations and testing!
- Doesn't work for AArch32 yet but I think I have a fix
* Use newer perf for benchmarking [TCWG-1512]
- Tried 4.15.0-62 generic on the TK1, doesn't seem to work; investigating
* SVE IR fuzzer [LLVM-586]
- Didn't get to work much on it
* Uploaded LLVM 9.0.0-rc4
== Plan ==
* Fix AArch32 benchmarking
* TCWG-1512 and LLVM-586
o LLVM:
* Buildbots babysitting
* Machine Outliner:
- Experiments on Zephyr exposed some issues w/r to unwinding and
relocation overflow, working on these.
o Misc
* Various meetings and discussions.
Hi guys. Due to unfortunate baggage handling, I don't have my laptop and
won't be able to log in Monday. I should be back online Tuesday, all going
well.

Progress:
+ usual upstream maintainership stuff
+ notably, finished review of RTH's decodetree conversion patchset,
got it into master
+ started on implementing semihosting v2 API (the most interesting
new feature of which is support for AArch32 binaries exiting with
a specified exit status)
thanks

== Progress ==
* GCC:
- FDPIC: almost OK. Found minor issues with testcases
* GCC upstream validation:
- reported a couple of issues. Helped with testing.
- getting ready to add cortex-m33 validation with qemu
* Binutils:
- Non-contiguous memory regions support in the BFD linker: not started yet.
* misc:
- infra fixes / troubleshooting / reviews
- a bit of Jira
== Next ==
GCC:
- commit FDPIC patches after final validation
- binutils/linker support for non-contiguous memory regions
- GCC upstream validation: Add a config for cortex-m33 (v8-m)
