== Progress ==
* LLVM 7.1.0 Release for ARM & AArch64 [LLVM-546]
- Final candidate build in progress
* [GlobalISel] Map and select G_FCONSTANT [LLVM-552]
- Committed upstream
* [GlobalISel] Better support for small types [LLVM-553]
- In progress
== Plan ==
* LLVM-546, LLVM-553
[Conferences]
Linaro connect and EuroLLVM. Please see trip reports already posted. A
bit of a gruelling week of Travel going from Bangkok straight to
Brussels, with just a short half a day in between at home in
Cambridge.
[Activity]
- A number of reviews whilst away
- Started looking at how to build an embedded toolchain with Linaro's
ABE and work out how to fit it into their infrastructure.
Planned Absences
Holiday 12- 16th, back on Wednesday.
== Progress ==
* FDPIC
- Experimenting with stm32f469-disco
* GCC upstream validation:
- reported a few regressions
* GCC
- ubsan on bare-metal toolchain: enabling more multilibs triggered an
assert in the linker.
* Infra
- improved reporting of some jobs
== Next ==
FDPIC:
- GCC: handle feedback on v4 patches
- GDB: update patches
- uclibc-ng: look at how to test fdpic mode with openadk
- complete board setup
Infra:
- benchmarking jobs update
== Progress ==
* LLVM 7.1.0 Release for ARM & AArch64 [LLVM-546]
- Uploaded RC1 for both ARM & AArch64
* [GlobalISel] Support debug info [LLVM-549]
- Added support for DBG_VALUE, seems to be enough for now
* [GlobalISel] Map and select G_FCONSTANT [LLVM-552]
- In progress
* IR SVE Reviews [LLVM-545]
- More reading, discussions etc
== Plan ==
* More of the same
[VIRT-263 # ARMv8.1-VHE Virtual Host Extensions ]
More progress, but still crashing early. Crashes on first
memory access after swapping ttbr1. Debugging kernel on
guest and qemu on host simultaneously. So far, all the
numbers look right but still boom.
[VIRT-339 # ARMv8.5-BTI, Branch Target Identification ]
Posted a v4 using the PT_NOTE, but still RFC-ish due to
missing abi for new mmap flag.
[VIRT-327 # Richard's upstream QEMU work ]
Posted v1+v2 of CPUNegativeOffsetState.
Posted v1 of a cleanup of target/riscv wrt decodetree.
[Other]
Upgraded the laptop from fedora 27 (out of support now),
to ubuntu 18.04 lts.

[Activity]
[LLVM-542] Compiling zephyr with clang
- Prepared for presentation/discussion with colleagues at Connect next week.
- Made the installation process a bit more repeatable
- Added support for -Oz
[Intel-CET] patches to LLD (similar to BTI)
- Code-owner has redesigned the patches and they look a lot better and
more likely to go in. Shouldn't be too difficult to build BTI on top
of.
[LLVM-523] .ARM.exidx redesign
- Now committed, and has stuck for at least a day without needing to
be reverted.
Linaro Connect
- Preparations for hack room
- Gave dry run of presentation for Doughnuts. Will need to cut out
some material to get through in time.
Next week:
At Linaro Connect
Then at EuroLLVM
Then most likely on holiday for remainder of that week.
== Progress ==
* FDPIC
- Discovered that my stm32f429-disc1 board is not suitable for recent
Linux kernels (too large). Will experiment with stm32f469-disco
* GCC upstream validation:
- reported a few regressions
* misc (conf-calls, meetings, emails, ....)
- reviewed infra script patches
- fixed small issues after adding QEMU as a toolchain component in ABE
- added jobs to monitor Jenkins slaves
- fixed issues in benchmarking scripts
== Next ==
FDPIC:
- GCC: handle feedback on v4 patches
- GDB: update patches
- uclibc-ng: look at how to test fdpic mode with openadk
- complete board setup
Infra:
- benchmarking jobs update
== Progress ==
* LLVM 7.1.0 Release for ARM & AArch64 [LLVM-546]
- Fixed our infra scripts to work for 7.1.0 (looks like it's the
first ever minor release since the new numbering scheme was
introduced)
- AArch64 is ready and green, ARM still in progress
* [Thumb GlobalISel] Bugfixes [LLVM-544]
- Committed the patch for alignment issues and 2 other patches for
1-bit value handling
- Selfhosted clang now passes check-all
* IR SVE Reviews [LLVM-545]
- More reading, installed armie etc
== Plan ==
* More of the same
Hi,
I am trying to cross-compile QEMU for aarch64 target using the below toolchain http://releases.linaro.org/components/toolchain/binaries/4.9-2016.02/aarch6…
../configure --target-list=aarch64-softmmu --enable-kvm --enable-vhost-net --cross-prefix=~/Downloads/gcc-linaro-4.9-2016.02-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-
ERROR: pkg-config binary '/home/rokhanna/Downloads/gcc-linaro-4.9-2016.02-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-pkg-config' not found
QEMU - https://github.com/qemu/qemu
Any pointers on where I can find pkg-config? Thanks in advance.
Thanks
Rohit
