What tools can be used to protect the KVM and qemu quality？

by chenq

Hi all， I am a rookie, and now I'm focusing on ARM virtualization. As we know,KVM (for Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution. KVM-Autotest is a set of virtualization tests for X86 platform, but it may not be suitable for ARM.I want to know, in the linaro , what tools can protect the KVM and qemu quality ? Thanks and Regards,Qun Chen

* usual set of meetings etc * rebased qemu-linaro on upstream 1.3, rolled tarball for 2012.12; Zhenqiang has tested it and it should be ready to go next week * qemu arm patch catchup; pinging or resending some patches of mine from before upstream freeze * applied a set of boot-wrapper patches from tixy * virtio patch code review: design definitely coming together now KVM blueprint progress tracker (note new url): http://cbuild.validation.linaro.org/helpers/backlog?group_by=topic&colour_b… -- PMM

== Progress == * Turn off 64-bits bitos in Neon: Ping-ed patch proposal. * Disable peeling: benchmarks show good results; sent a proposal upstream to discuss preliminary implementation & needed testsuite modifications. * builtin_bswap16 backport to linaro-4.7: need to investigation an unexpected regression reported for i686 target. * Updated gdb linaro sources to 7.5.1, exercising the release process. * Trying to bootstrap gcc-linaro/4.7 on board: need to retry with a different rootfs distribution. == Next == * handle 64-bits bitops in Neon and disable-peeling feedback from upstream if any. * finish builtin_bswap16 backport

Scheduler tweaks

by Michael Hope

I've done a couple of tweaks to the scheduler. You now see pending jobs by the class of machine they'll run on. Clicking a job takes you to the detail, which includes a link to drop/cancel the job. -- Michael

Toolchain Working Group Meeting Times

by Matthew Gretton-Dann

All, As I mentioned on Monday, due to new members of the team coming on board I am going to rejig the meeting times from 18th December. My proposal is as follows (all times UK Local - UTC+0h winter, UTC+1h summer): 0. These changes will come into effect the week commencing 18th December. 1. The weekly call will happen on a Monday, at 0930 and 1600. You only need to make it to one instance of the call. For those who are physically near each other arranging it so that both calls get attended would be good and notes shared would be good. 2. The Stand-up call will happen on a Thursday, alternating between 0930 and 1600. This is 'best effort' - but please try to attend at least every other week. 3. The performance call will go weekly, and will happen on a Thursday, alternating between 0930 and 1600. If you are on the invite list to this call again please try to attend at least every other week, but if you can manage every week that would be great. If you have any comments on these please can you raise them by the end of the week as I would like to confirm what we are going to do at the call on Monday (at the normal time of 0915UTC). Thanks, Matt -- Matthew Gretton-Dann Linaro Toolchain Working Group matthew.gretton-dann(a)linaro.org

[ACTIVITY] 26-30 November

by Christophe Lyon

== Progress == * Turn off 64-bits bitops in Neon: patch proposed upstream after positive benchmarking. Re-submitted after request to add testcases and documentation for the new option. * Disable peeling: running benchmarks with peeling completely disabled to see the impact. * PGO/hot-cold partitioning: tested new patch from google, which solves some of the ICEs, but makes new ones appear. * builtin_bswap16 backport to Linaro-4.7: checking if there would be a possibility to keep the testcase which fails in one of our configurations, after rebasing my branch. * Trying to bootstrap gcc-linaro/4.7 on board * Internal support == Next == * Follow-up on 64-bits bitops in Neon * Look at benchmarks results with peeling disabled * finish builtin_bswap16 backport
