== Progress == * FDPIC - GCC: no feedback yet on v4 patches - GDB: started looking at the patches, some parts are very similar to FRV, maybe worth commonalization.

* GCC upstream validation: - reported a few regressions, helped testing some patches - dealing with some random results, still - trying qemu-3.1.0-rc1, memory consumption problems with aarch64-linux. Could not properly test cortex-m0 support yet, because building gcc --with-cpu=cortex-m0 currently fails.

* GCC: - bug report on aarch64 about misaligned accesses. I do not have access to LHG gerrit, Maxim will look at isolating the problem. - rebased ubsan / bare-metal patches. Really need to look at how to merge them into LLVM

* misc (conf-calls, meetings, emails, ....) - reviewing infra script patches - ran Spec2006 on aarch64 using gcc-8.2 sysroot, results match the previous ones, so the improvements are only imputable to the compiler. Started the same experiment on aarch32 - some Jira/goals discussions - dealing with nasty ST-internal infrastructure problems

== Next == FDPIC: - GCC: handle feedback on v4 patches - GDB: update patches - uclibc-ng: look at how to test fdpic mode with openadk Benchmarks: - collect results Validation: - isolate why qemu-3.1.0-rc1 consumes much more memory for aarch64-linux target
