Holiday [6/10]
Misc [3/10]
* Mail backlog
* Moved all current AArch64 work off 'my' Juno, as ARM needed it back
* A little bit of a look at another possible memcpy performance issue
libm exercising - TCWG-558 [1/10]
* Reduced 'needless calls to pow' to a simple test case
** Found that this is actually an all-targets thing (at least AArch32,
AArch64, x86)
* Looked through benchfft output
** Looks like only one implementation calls libm much
** This is probably just bad code, but could do with a comparison run
on non-AArch64 to be sure
=Plan=
Switch to TCWG Junos
Think about where to go next with libm exercising
Complete 'same network' workaround, test benchmark repeatability
Port benchmarking scripts to ABE repo
Get storage/automation started, if Rob has time

Hi all,
I've asked ITS to install a git post-commit hook to send an email
after commits in the toolchain git repos.
It turns out that they prefer to send such email to mailing-lists, to
avoid having to maintain the list of recipients themselves, which of
course really makes sense.
So far, we already have a cbuild2 mailing-list for commits, which Rob
asked to now point to abe instead of cbuild2 repo.
I was thinking about asking a single new mailing-list (eg
tcwg-commits) and send commit emails to that list for all ours repos,
instead of having a list per repo to which interested team members
would have to subscribe.
We currently have the following git repos:
abe
backflip
backport-tools
binutils-gdb
binutils
cbuild2
cortex-malloc
cortex-strings
cross-build-tools
dejagnu
dmucs
eglibc
fakebench
gcc-new
gcc
gdb
glibc
lavabench
newlib
release-notes
spec2xxx-utils
tcwg-sysadmin
Any objection to having such a list?
(I do not plan to force subscription of any of you :-)
Christophe.
