* TCWG-984, PR 20939, GDB aborts if there is an error in disassembly. [3/10] It is a blocker to 7.12.1 release. Fixed it in 7.12 branch. Address comments and manage reviewer's expectations on the patches for mainline.
* Approved two Alan's SVE GDB preparatory patches. [1/10]
* Reviewed Dave Martin's SVE user space VL control API. [1/10] Can't figure out a case that debugger or debugger user wants to change VL.
* Review DWARF patch in big endian on DW_OP_implicit_value. [2/10] Played with the patch, and use part of it in existing gdb tests. Found other GDB bugs, and fixed them. Some readings on DWARF 5. Will post my patches next week and continue reviewing the DWARF patch.
* Booked Hungary visa appointment.
* Training. [3/10]
