Spec 2000 broken?

by Andrew Stubbs

Hi Michael, I ran the benchmark tests on GCC 4.7, but the spec2000 run seems to have failed. This is both on the baseline, and on my patch. See here: http://ex.seabright.co.nz/benchmarks/gcc-linaro-4.7%2bbzr114968~ams-codesou… Andrew

Saturated operations

by Michael Hope

Hi Ulrich. The saturated work you're doing at the moment - is it the saturated add/subtract QADD/QSUB/QDADD/QDSUB or the ARMv6 saturate-word-with-shift SSAT/USAT? I've updated the old blueprint and added a new one for SSAT/USAT: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/gcc-linaro/+spec/armv6-saturation-instruct… https://blueprints.launchpad.net/gcc-linaro/+spec/armv5-saturated-ops and was wondering which to put against your name. -- Michael

Fleshing out the QEMU blueprints

by Michael Hope

Hi Peter, Rusty. I've fleshed out the KVM blueprints a bit more at: https://wiki.linaro.org/MichaelHope/Sandbox/Q1.12ToDo Notable is adding validation and de-PENDING a few things. I need to know the following things before talking to Validation and Platforms about things that are in their queue: * What's the host kernel? Christoffers, or a linux-linaro-kvm based off his plus work in progress? * What's the guest kernel? * Anything special that needs to be in the host rootfs outside qemu and libvirt? Do you have a host and guest kernel .config that I can pass on to Platforms? -- Michael

Hi, GDB on Android: * Set up cross compiling environment using both the Android toolchain and the Linaro toolchain. * Tested Android and Mozilla GDB running as a native binary on the Linaro Android image on qemu. None of them were able to see all threads in a multi-threaded process. The same happens with a native binary on Android talking to a gdbserver on localhost. * I was able to produce an Android GDB 7.1.x binary which when running on an i386 host talking to the Android SDK emulator sees all threads. It is not able to generate a backtrace though. * Carnival holidays. -- []'s Thiago Jung Bauermann Linaro Toolchain Working Group

[ACTIVITY] 20th - 24th February

Investigated and produced and patch for bug lp936863. Continued work on 64-bit shifts. I updated my neon shifts patch twice: once to take -Os optimization into account, and once because I noticed that the CC clobbers were being retained even after they were known to be not required, and presumably this could be a bad thing. Posted a patch to improve SI->DImode sign- and zero-extends that also move values from core registers to neon registers. Wrote a patch to implement negation in neon register, albeit at the cost of a scratch register to hold the constant zero. This worked, but insisted on loading the zero from memory, despite the fact that NEON has a suitable instruction for loading zero. Attempted to get "vmov dN, #0" to work. The problem appears to be that DImode loads are handled by the VFP load pattern in vfp.md and that that doesn't seem to DTRT for integer constants. I've got as far as trying to figure out what it does do, but there's more to be done to get to the bottom of the problem. Tried to get the benchmarking going for 64-bit shifts. Unfortunately ursa1 has been experiencing outages. Michael has been trying to fix it, but so far I've not been able to run anything there. Instead, I've launched benchmark runs via Michael's normal test infrastructure. Hopefully this can replace the manual ones anyway. That would be more convenient.

Running pre-built linaro toolchain failed on Ubuntu 11.04, 64bit server

by Lv Terry-R65388

Hi, I'm trying to use pre-built version of linaro toolchain for cross-compiler in Ubuntu 11.04 on our 64bit server. I got it from http://people.linaro.org/~michaelh/incoming/binaries/. When I run arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc to compile a c source, it says "No such file or directory". The steps are as below: 1. Unpack gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabi-2011.12-20111219+bzr2309~linux.tar.bz2. 2. Rename gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabi-2011.12-20111219+bzr2309~linux to arm-fsl-linux-gnueabi. 3. Copy to ~/toolchain_ltib/gcc-linaro-4.6.3-glibc-2.13-singlelib-2011.12/ 2. Use arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc to compile my code. The output is: r65388@shlinux3:~/MEMCPYBM$ ~/toolchain_ltib/gcc-linaro-4.6.3-glibc-2.13-singlelib-2011.12/arm-fsl-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc -bash: /home/r65388/toolchain_ltib/gcc-linaro-4.6.3-glibc-2.13-singlelib-2011.12/arm-fsl-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc: No such file or directory I have installed lsb 4.0 and libc6 2.13. r65388@shlinux3:~/MEMCPYBM$ dpkg -s lsb Package: lsb Status: install ok installed Priority: extra Section: misc Installed-Size: 48 Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-discuss(a)lists.ubuntu.com> Architecture: all Version: 4.0-0ubuntu16 ... r65388@shlinux3:~/MEMCPYBM$ dpkg -s libc6-dev Package: libc6-dev Status: install ok installed Multi-Arch: same Priority: optional Section: libdevel Installed-Size: 11888 Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-discuss(a)lists.ubuntu.com> Architecture: amd64 Source: eglibc Version: 2.13-20ubuntu5 Provides: libc-dev Depends: libc6 (= 2.13-20ubuntu5), libc-dev-bin (= 2.13-20ubuntu5), linux-libc-dev Recommends: gcc | c-compiler Suggests: glibc-doc, manpages-dev Breaks: binutils (<< 2.20.1-1), binutils-gold (<< 2.20.1-11), cmake (<< 2.8.4+dfsg.1-5), gcc-4.4 (<< 4.4.6-3ubuntu1), gcc-4.4-base (<< 4.4.6-3ubuntu1), gcc-4.5 (<< 4.5.3-1ubuntu2), gcc-4.5-base (<< 4.5.3-1ubuntu2), gcc-4.6 (<< 4.6.0-12), gcj-4.4-base (<< 4.4.6-2ubuntu2), gcj-4.5-base (<< 4.5.3-1ubuntu2), gnat-4.4-base (<< 4.4.6-1ubuntu3), libhwloc-dev (<< 1.2-3), libjna-java (<< 3.2.7-4), liblouis-dev (<< 2.3.0-2), liblouisxml-dev (<< 2.4.0-2), make (<< 3.81-8.1), pkg-config (<< 0.26-1) ...

[Activity] Week 8

by Zhenqiang Chen

Summary: * Linaro binary toolchain 2012.02 release. * Try the Multilib patch on linaro toolchain. Details: 1. Linaro binary toolchain 2012.02 release. * Create linaro license file based on embedded toolchain, add crosstool-ng and sysroot (eglibc) license. * Tests on win7, oneiric and RHEL5. 2. Try to apply the multilib patch used in embedded toolchain to linaro toolchain. * The multilib solution can not work together with the multiarch patch. (1) With both patches, "gcc -print-multi-lib" can only print one option. (2) With only multilib patch, "gcc -print-multi-lib" can print the multilib list. * Successfully build a multilib toolchain (Based on the prebuilt oneiric-sysroot with directory structure change for include and lib.) without the multiarch patch and c++ support. Plans: 1. Try crosstool-ng 1.14 to build multilib eglibc. 2. Investigate how to make multiarch and multilib work together. Planed leaves: * Mar. 1-2. Best regards! -Zhenqiang

KVM blueprints

by Michael Hope

Hi Peter, Rusty. I've written down my notes from Connect and drafted the blueprints at: https://wiki.linaro.org/MichaelHope/Sandbox/Q1.12ToDo I've put my priories on things and sorted them by relative importance. I'll check tomorrow if there's a good match between this, the KVMEpic spec, and the older task spreadsheet. Most of these are too short. I don't know what's involved with the CP15 work. Some still have big PENDINGS. Please edit and correct. There's a lot of work there. Some is on other teams but I'm concerned. -- Michael

== GCC == * Merged Ira's remaining vectorizer patches into Linaro GCC 4.7. * Merged Richard's sched-pressure patch (enabled by default on ARM) into Linaro GCC 4.7. Asked IBM colleagues for benchmark results on s390 and rs6000 as well. * Committed patch to enable vect_condition tests in FSF mainline, FSF 4.6, and Linaro GCC 4.7. * Verified that Linaro GCC 4.7 now contains every feature that was present in Linaro GCC 4.6. * Rebased and re-benchmarked fwprop-subreg patch. * Ongoing work on a patch to generate usat/ssat instructions where appropriate. * Worked on improving end-of-loop value computation. * Fixed mainline .init_array/.fini_array regression on certain newlib targets. * Reviewed several merge requests.
