Progress: * merge-correctness-fixes: ** Nathan Froyd (CodeSourcery) has reviewed a lot of my ARM patches. Most were OK, one or two needed tweaking We seem to have come to agreement on how best to treat the API between qemu and the softfloat library, and I have a V2 patchset ready to mail as soon as Nathan has commented on the final patch. ** posted a patch to rename a very misleading _is_nan() function ** identified list of correctness patches in meego and samsung trees and issues noted within ARM ** qemu: posted patch to remove an unused function ** started looking at the first patch in the meego tree, which fixes VQSHL. I have already discovered a bug in this insn not covered by the meego patch...

Meetings: toolchain, PD update, ARM 20th birthday party

Plans: - qemu consolidation

Issues: * Locking in qemu is definitely insufficient, especially (but not exclusively) when running multi-threaded programs in linux-user mode. https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/668799 has an example problem and some discussion; I'm hoping some other qemu developers have an opinion, but the nicest approach IMHO would involve fairly invasive changes to how qemu implements interrupting a cpu which is executing TCG code. Not sure where this should sit in the priority list.

Things of note: - there has been some discussion of broadening the "KVM Forum" conference to include other virtualisation related topics including Xen and also the TCG aspects of Qemu. Still all up in the air but possibly colocated with LinuxCon in Vancouver in August. See: http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/KVM_Forum_2011
