[ACTIVITY] 1-5 February 2021

== Progress == * GCC upstream validation: - not really catching up, now ~15 days late due to the numerous commits. Manually fast-forwarded the latest build to today. I'll bisect manually for regressions if needed. - re-enabled native validation in Linaro's lab: we are sending test results again

* GCC - MVE autovectorization: vorn patch committed. Working on vcmp.

== Next == * MVE auto-vectorization/intrinsics improvements * GCC/cortex-M testing improvements & fixes * cortex-m benchmarking
