[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.

[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. r~

[ACTIVITY] Week ending Friday 29th March 2019

by Peter Smith

[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
