* Core mark benchmark and report for PGO and PGO + LTO (TCWG-544) (6/10) Going by CPU cycles adding LTO gains in x86 and degrades in Aarch64 . Looked at hot functions and examining assembly the code generation seems to be same. X86_64 does alignment of code. Also branch misses decreased in X86_64 compared to Aarch64 with -flto + -O3.
Also profiled for instruction counts on Aarch64 with linaro compiler. These profiles say that we are executing less instructions with LTO and PGO for Aarch64.
* PR 63173- Reproduced the issue and changed the test case to work with trunk. Now Looks like someone else has a patch for it. (1/10). so will work on other bugs.
* Misc [3/10] Internal work, emails, AMD meetings and 1-1 with inline manger. 1-1 with Maxim, christophe and 1-1 with ryan
== Plan == * Coremark benchmark and profiling. Investigate trunk degradation for O3+ PGO + LTO and report.
