Minutes

• Michael □ Continuing on patch tracking □ Continuing investigating string routines □ Julican noted that using NEON adds power usage and adds a context switch cost • Andrew □ Has a few patches left to go □ The ones left are a bit curlier □ Reviewing the upstream state of the current patches □ Will be sending the Cortex-A5 work upstream • Yao □ is continuing with the GDB bug fixes □ Most are caused by the testsuite □ Michael noted that we want to make any work we do available early.

Richard will take care of next week • Chung-Lin □ Starting on hard vs soft FP performance tests □ Testing on a i.MX51 board □ Michael wants Chung-Lin to finish up on libffi soon • Julian □ Working on a vector conditions patch □ Currently seeing a segfault in compiled applications □ ACTION: Michael will re-try the build failures that Julian saw by the end of this week

Next meeting is a stand-up meeting on 2010-08-20 on the public code.
