Hi All,
I don't whether this is the right community mailing list to post
support or not. Please correct me if i am wrong.
I am trying to cross compile gcc to ARM as static binaries and as part
of this, i am facing below issue. My build system is Ubuntu and using
[1] gcc branch. Let me know what i can share more information to you.
arm-linux-gnueabi-g++ -static -DIN_GCC -DCROSS_DIRECTORY_STRUCTURE
-fno-exceptions -fno-rtti -fasynchronous-unwind-tables -W -Wall

== Progress ==
LLDB Buildbot Setup [TCWG-241] [1/10]
-- Created a new factory for LLDB buildbots. Halted plan to migrate
till turning chromebook build green.
LLDB Chromebook Test Stability [TCWG-563] [3/10]
-- Investigated some failures some of them were fixed by a systemZ
support large patch set.
-- Failures reduced to 36 locally with some tweaks. Buildbot still
showing random results.
LLDB ARM Thread Stepping Problem [TCWG-566] [5/10]
-- Only happening on Arm linux targets.
-- Spent good bit of time debugging this issue. There are multiple
problems but root cause is same.
-- Initial investigation reveals frame unwinding issues from .plt section.
Miscellaneous [1/10]
-- Meetings, emails, discussions etc.
== Plan ==
LLDB ARM Thread Stepping Problem [TCWG-566]
-- Further debugging and investigation of this issue.
-- Figure out a fix for stepping problem on arm linux.
== Progress ==
o GCC 2016.04 source snapshot (4/10)
* Reviewed on-going backports
* Merged from FSF GCC 5 branch
* Packaged and released snaphot
o Extended validation (3/10)
* Native validation identifies upstream issues
- Fixed Glibc warnings raised by GCC 6, committed in Glibc master
* Looking at bkk16 job switch to multijob..
o Misc (3/10)
* Various meetings
== Plan ==
o Continue on extended validation
o GCC ARMv8.1 builtins fix.
== This week ==
* Bugzilla 70089 - ARM/THUMB unnecessarily typecasts some rvalues on
memory store (1/10)
- Arm backend is not recognizing that some constants can be encoded
using modified immediate
- This is causing constant to be split and additional code generated
- Range of constants allowed differs between Arm and Thumb2
- Created prototype patch to allow additional ARM modified immediate
instructions
- Began work on Thumb2 patch
* TCWG-247 - Create Validation Job to run on GCC Trunk Commit (2/10)
- Developed shell portion of script to read and parse web page with
builder information
- Developing rest of yaml script including trigger on specified interval
* Misc meeting (1/10)
* Vacation (6/10)
- April 11 - 13
== Next week ==
* TCWG-247
- Finish script
* Bugzilla 70089 - ARM/THUMB unnecessarily typecasts some rvalues on
memory store
- Finalize arm patch and validate
- Make progress on Thumb2 patch
== Progress ==
* Support (2/10)
- Closing some inline asm constraint bugs that were fixed or user error
- Finished PR16275
* Background (8/10)
- Code review, meetings, discussions, general support, etc.
- Lost track of how many meetings and email threads I had
- Mostly about helping newcomers, managing Android/LLDB/LLD expectations
- Also hardware planning, LLVMLinux revival, checking Swift
Progress:
- Read up on AARCH64 TLS and LLD code base
- Commented on upstream patch in hope of getting approval from the code-owners
- TCWG-466 Implement ADRL pseudo in LLVM assembler
-- Slow progress as the pseudo instruction does not fit well into the
existing architecture
-- On the positive side I have learned quite a bit about how the LLVM
assembler works
-- Will make a decision next week whether it is worth actively
pursuing TCWG-466. Supporting ADRL is not high priority and whatever
fix I come up with may be difficult to get accepted upstream. I'd
still like to keep trying, at least as a background task, but I think
that there is higher priority work that can be done instead.
Next Week:
On holiday (hopefully added correctly to Linaro google calendar). I'll
be at the ACCU conference.
== Progress ==
* Validation
- finally identified what caused several random results: use of 'ssh
-tt' to acces the remote tester. I don't know the real cause.
* GCC
- reported a few regressions in trunk
- a few backports
- AdvSIMD intrinsics tests: built the list of AArch64 intrinsics not
yet covered
- support on a few bug reports
* Misc (conf-calls, meetings, emails, ....)
== Next ==
* Holidays Mon/Tue/Wed
* Validation
- consolidation on stdout/stderr problems
- extended validation
* GCC:
- trunk monitoring, report regressions if needed
- start monitoring the just-created gcc-6 branch
- more intrinsics tests
- switch backport activity to gcc-6 branch, update tools, etc...
# Progress #
* TCWG-545, 7 patches are approved, and 1 patch needs update, which
needs the change somewhere else. [3/10]
* TCWG-547, patch is pending. Pinged Pedro on IRC, to be reviewed, but
no response.
* TCWG-167, [3/10]. ARM reverse debugging fixes. Post one patch to fix
test case. Testing another patch to give high priority of epilogue
unwinder.
* Upstream patch review, [2/10]. Spend more time on this due to long
patch review backlog. The more I reviewed, the sooner my patches will
be reviewed by others.
* Misc, [2/10]
** Look at the slowness of gdb regression test in jekins validation, but
can't reproduce it.
** Share some knowledge of watchpoint implementation in GDB to the
people, who need the equivalent or similar things in LLDB.
# Plan #
* TCWG-545, TCWG-547, TCWG-167.
