== QEMU ==
* Wrote the context routines for Eglibc, including those that QEMU uses
These pass all the context tests I could find, including QEMUs coroutine
tests, and with them QEMU seems to boot OK. I've got a full eglibc test
run going at the moment, but I don't think anything else uses
them. I posted
them with comments and a question to libc-ports; I'll try and chase follow
ups.
== String routines ==
* I posted the strchr and strlen routines to eglibc (libc-ports)
* On strchr the question of whether it was worth using the longer version
that's faster for longer strings (but slower for shorter strings) came
up. I posted
some stats, observations etc - and there is still a discussion on
going about it.
* For strlen, rth noted the same trick that I'd originally seen in newlib
(and for which RichardS and Ramana had suggested) of a quicker end-of-string
sequence using clz. I'd avoided this because I'd originally seen it
in newlib and
didn't want to copy it; but since 3 people have individually suggested it it
would seem using.
== Goodbye! ==
Thank you all for a fun & interesting year! I'm sure many of us
will meet online again in the future. I'll try and follow my
linaro.org address
while it's still live to check for any replies to any patches/comments etc.
Feel free to mail me at davidgil(a)uk.ibm.com (work) or dave(a)treblig.org (home);
for Linaro people I've also added some more contact methods at:
https://wiki.linaro.org/Internal/People/DaveGilbert/Contact
Thanks again!
Dave
anyone have a suggestion for this person?

Subject: New question: problem in installing Linaro tools on Ask Linaro
Date: Mon, 26 Dec 2011 21:31:57 -0800 (PST)

Hello doanac,
chandrakala <http://ask.linaro.org/users/172/chandrakala> has just
posted a new question on Ask Linaro, entitled problem in installing
Linaro tools
<http://ask.linaro.org/questions/456/problem-in-installing-linaro-tools>
and tagged "/linaro <http://ask.linaro.org/tags/linaro/> installation
<http://ask.linaro.org/tags/installation/>/". Here's what it says:
Hi all,
Iam new to linux and gnu tools. i have downloaded linaro gnu tools
to install cortex-a8 on my ubuntu machine. iam able to successfully
install gcc tools. But when i try to install arm tools it is
throwing error. following are the commands used to install gnu tools
and the error it is generated
mckala@mckala:~/Desktop/gstreamer/gcc_objdir$

mckala@mckala:~/Desktop/gstreamer/gcc_objdir$ make all-host
mckala@mckala:~/Desktop/gstreamer/gcc_objdir$ make install-host
with this gnu tools installation is completed and i did not get any
error. when i used the following command to install cross compiler,
it is giving error
mckala@mckala:~/Desktop/gstreamer/gcc_objdir$ make
The error is

Can any one please help on this.
Thanks in advance.
Don't forget to come over and cast your vote.
Thanks,

P.S. You can always fine-tune which notifications you receive here

------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've posted all my WIP patches to this list over the last few days.
Please treat them kindly. :-) I've also tried to update the relevant
blueprints.
I pinged the 4.5 and 4.6 backports for lp736661 on gcc-patches last week,
then again this week, but there's obviously not likely to be much response
at this time of year. I therefore went ahead with the Linaro merges of
the branches rather than relying on them being committed to FSF branches
in time for next month's Linaro release. I'll continue to ping though.
If I've forgotten anything, or if you need more info, please don't
hesitate to ask. I'll continue to monitor my Linaro email address
as long as it remains active, although rdsandiford(a)googlemail.com
is likely to be a better bet.
With all that out of the way, I just wanted to say thank you to everyone
for making this a really enjoyable project to work on. It feels like
we managed to get through a fair number of new features, performance
improvements and bug fixes this year. I hope Linaro will be around
for a good few years yet and that it continues to go from strength
to strength.
Happy New Year, and all the best,
Richard
Here's the patch for sms-and-memory-dependencies. The idea is to bypass
the sched-deps.c {output,read,anti,true}_dependence tests altogether --
which is easy to do thanks to the note_mem_dep hook -- and instead handle
them in ddg.c. The ddg.c tests then use RTL loop iv analysis to try
to get longer distances on the memory dependencies. (Note that other
memory-related dependencies, such as those between volatile MEMs and
other volatile instructions, are still handled by sched-deps.c.)
Dependencies are now always created in pairs, so there's no need for
get_sched_window to set an upper bound when processing incoming MEM_DEPs,
or a lower bound when processing outgoing MEM_DEPs; we can rely on the
partnering edge to do that instead.
Richard

arithmetic.

About three months ago, 4.7 stopped being able to optimise things like:
int *__restrict x = ...;
The (libav) loop microbenchmarks that I'd written used this construct
a lot, as an easy way of automatically generating a whole function
from a loop kernel.
I spent a while testing 4.7 with the restrict patch reverted, while
I caught up with my post-holiday email backlog and saw whether the
effect on this code was deliberate. I eventually realised it was,
so implemented a change that Ira had suggested: splitting out a
peak_loop_1 that takes all the restrict pointers as arguments.
I just realised that I never pushed that change back up to bzr,
so I've done it now.
Probably a write-only change, since I doubt anyone's going to be
using the benchmark again, but just in case :-)

This is my current 4.7 auto-inc-dec.c patch. I submitted an RFC in July:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gcc.patches/241779/
and updated the patch in line with the feedback I got. Steven Bosscher
sent some very useful comments in private email, so the update deals
with those as well as Bernd's public ones.
If we do go ahead with this rewrite, it depends on the A9 pipeline
description changes. I submitted some A8 and A9 changes here:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gcc.patches/244238/http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gcc.patches/244242/
but because I later noticed that the A9 didn't behave quite as I thought,
I decided not to apply them. Ramana asked around internally about what
the A9 actually does (thanks) and had some ideas.
The patch also relies on the MEM rtx_costs patch that I just posted:
http://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/linaro-toolchain/2011-December/001944.html

Hi,
Thank you all for an interesting and pleasant experience. I am very
grateful to Linaro for the opportunity to meet and work with such an
amazing group of people. I wish you all the best, and hope to meet you
again (at least online).
You can find me at irar(a)il.ibm.com or ira.rsn(a)gmail.com.

Summary:
* Read armV7-A/R reference manual; crosstool-ng patches and wrapper scripts.
Details:
1. Patches for crosstool-ng:
* Fix symlink issue when CT_USE_SYSROOT is not enabled.
* Update sample/linaro-arm-none-eabi (baremetal) to disable
SYSROOT. So that both include and lib files are in the same dir.
2. Study armV7-A/R reference manual.
