== This week ==
* Away Monday, and a fair bit of time on non-Linaro duties.
* Looked at Dave's gromacs bug (693502). Turned out to be a reload inheritance problem. Tested a patch. Spent some time coming up with a brute-force testcase that I can submit with the patch.
* Found a bug in the x86 and x86_64 ifunc support that would affect ARM too if we weren't careful. Came up with an example testcase and filed the bug upstream:
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12366
It has been fixed by H.J. Lu. I'm wondering about taking a slightly different approach for ARM.
* More ifunc work.
* Tried again to reproduce the chrome failure, making sure to use DEB_BUILD_HARDENING=1. (I hadn't realised first time round that, in reaction to this bug, debian/rules specifically excluded armel from the automatic DEB_BUILD_HARDENING=1 setting.) The build takes a couple of days on my BeagleBoard.
Heh, and just as I wrote that, the build failed with the reported link error. Neat.
== Next week ==
* Finish testing the patch for 693502 and submit it upstream. Backport the patch to our tree once accepted.
* Look at the chromium problem.
* More ifunc.
