[ACTIVITY] 24-28 June 2019

== Progress == * GCC: - FDPIC: No progress, still waiting for feedback - noinit attribute: no feedback yet

* GNU-583 (Fix Linux kernel built for Thumb-2 with GCC using LTO) - managed to reproduce similar error messages

* GCC upstream validation: - reported a few regressions.

* Binutils: - PR24709 (linker crash and assertion failure with CMSE). CMSE stubs do not support long branches. Tried two approaches, but didn't find a solution yet - resurrected a thread about non-contiguous memory regions support in the BFD linker

* misc: - reported regressions in qemu, found with the GCC testsuite - infra fixes / troubleshooting

== Next == GCC: - handle feedback on FDPIC and noinit patches - binutils/PR24709 - GNU-583
