Hello,
I tried codesourcy
arm-2012.03-57-arm-none-linux-gnueabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2, and get
below err infos.
Error: selected processor does not support ARM mode `sdiv R2,R0,R1'
Error: selected processor does not support ARM mode `udiv R2,R0,R1'
Does it mean this toolchain version don't support both instructions? and
which toolchain can support them?
Thanks a lot!
Xiao
== GCC ==
* GCC PR 53636 fix caused regression on powerpc64 and sparc64;
investigated, determined root cause, and implemented fix.
== GDB ==
* Took over remaining GDB/Android work from Thiago.

The Linaro Toolchain Working Group is pleased to announce the 2012.06
release of the Linaro Toolchain Binaries, a pre-built version of
Linaro GCC and Linaro GDB that runs on generic Linux or Windows and
targets the glibc Linaro Evaluation Build.
Uses include:
* Cross compiling ARM applications from your laptop
* Remote debugging
* Build the Linux kernel for your board
What's included:
* Linaro GCC 4.7 2012.06
* Linaro GDB 7.4 2012.06
* A statically linked gdbserver
* A system root
* Manuals under share/doc/
The system root contains the basic header files and libraries to link
your programs against.
Interesting changes include:
* Refine the system root
The Linux version is supported on Ubuntu 10.04.3 and 12.04, Debian
6.0.2, Fedora 16, openSUSE 12.1, Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation
5.7 and later, and should run on any Linux Standard Base 3.0
compatible distribution. Please see the README about running on
x86_64 hosts.
The Windows version is supported on Windows XP Pro SP3, Windows Vista
Business SP2, and Windows 7 Pro SP1.
The binaries and build scripts are available from:

== cp15-rework ==
* sent out pull request including these patches, so it should get
committed to master in the next few days
== a15-lpae-support ==
* started on getting ARM qemu to work with 64 bit physaddrs
(first stage mostly a tedious code audit)
== other ==
* email catchup following holiday
* rebased various trees, sent out pullreqs for outstanding ARM
QEMU patches
Michael H has set up a web page which tracks progress on KVM related
blueprints here:
http://apus.seabright.co.nz/helpers/backlog?group_by=topic&colour_by=state&…
This includes QEMU blueprints related to KVM.

I've gone through and checked the 64 bit operation improvements that
Andrew has made to GCC. For everything but the Cortex-A8, GCC uses
the NEON unit for 64 bit operations and Andrew's improvements mean we
can stay on NEON for longer without having an expensive transfer back
and forth to the core registers.
The results are here:
https://wiki.linaro.org/MichaelHope/Sandbox/64BitOperations
Once we've fixed the shift-left-by-n pattern I'll turn this into an
Outputs[1] page.
Benchmark results have been sent to the linaro-toolchain-benchmarks list.

Hi,
OpenEmbedded-Core/meta-linaro:
* updated OE-Core cbuild to pick up a recent snapshot of meta-linaro
* verified the release candidate of the Linaro binary toolchain 12.06
* prepared meta linaro for the upcoming release of our binary toolchain
* started on a linaro-qemu recipe but didn't finish it
misc:
* boot Linaro Android using QEMU:

== Progress ==
* Tried a number of testcases for the shuffles . Needed to add
support to the C++ frontend for the __builtin_shuffle support.
Fortunately there existed a patch - I tested it and it looked good.
Committed upstream. However the original author had some concerns
whether it would work in C++ or not but we shall see. The OP is
concerned that it might break C++11 and constexpr which need to be
looked at .
* Briefly investigated a regression with Linaro GCC 4.6 with Neon
intrinsics. It looks like my patch to allow LTO to proceed has had
some fall out . We really need some good tests in the GCC testsuite
for intrinsics.
* Looked at the Android documents and commented.
* Some upstream patch review.
== Plans ==
* Follow on the C++11 issues with the __builtin_shuffle patch if any.
* Commit the __builtin_shuffle variation of the neon intrinsics
patch into FSF 4.8. The improvements obtained are real and nice
atleast for the testcases that we could see after finishing up the
testcases.
* There is some follow-up work which should tie in nicely with costs
rework - lower-subreg ends up splitting things a bit badly in some
cases with vld4 style intrinsics and for V4SF copies. So it's better
we try to get the costs right. I suspect this might be harming us in a
few cases with auto-vectorized code as well. Especially where we
vectorize with the large vldn instructions.
* Investigate the 4.6 regression with Neon intrinsics.
* Auto-inc-dec scheduler work.
Hi,
I'm trying to build some shared libraries with the Linaro Android
toolchain.
For all of my libraries I get the following errors from the linker:
|BlaBla.cpp.o: requires unsupported dynamic reloc R_ARM_REL32; recompile with -fPIC
/home/dev/android/android_linaro_toolchain/libexec/gcc/arm-linux-androideabi/4.7.1/real-ld: error: hidden symbol '__dso_handle' is not defined locally
|
I'm using -fPIC in the compiler's flags so I'm not sure why the linker
is complaining.
The |__dso_handle| error is supposed to have been fixed in the NDKr6. I
tried the
Linaro 4.7.1(2012.05) toolchain, the one available for download, one of
the daily
builds from Linaro of the same toolchain(the one from Friday last week)
and I also
rebuilt entirely the toolchain from source but with the same results. I
found a bug
report in the
launchpad(https://bugs.launchpad.net/igloocommunity/+bug/1000200)
which pretty much describes exactly the same problem but unfortunately
none of the
observations made there helped(I do have -fPIC in the compilation flags,
I do not
have any assembly source and I rebuilt the toolchain from source).
Does anyone have any hints on how to fix or overcome the problem?
Thanks,
Marius
== GCC ==
* Fixed vectorizer bug causing unaligned memory accesses
(LP 1010826 / GCC PR 53636); checked in to GCC mainline
and Linaro GCC 4.7. Backports to FSF 4.7 and Linaro
GCC 4.6 are under way.
* Investigated vectorizer performance regression reported
by Mans; main problem seems to be lack of use of the
vectorizer cost model by default on ARM, but other
aspects of the vectorized code could be improved as well.
* Created blueprint to tune vectorizer cost mode on ARM
and enable it by default.
* Ongoing work on reassociation pass.
