2019-10-04 Thread Peter Smith 
On buildbot duty
- Several buildbot failures to investigate along with one linux kernel
regression
- Didn't manage to get the libcxx buildbot failures resolved on time.
I think the community are still trying to fix it (Script needs to be
Python2/Python3
Started work on LLD support for Morello
- Getting familiar with the toolchain
- First target is sufficient support to statically link the Howdy
"hello world" equivalent.
- Made the first couple of local patches to implement the easiest set
of static relocations.
Some upstream LLD patch review.

[ACTIVITY] report week ending 4 Oct

2019-10-04 Thread Peter Maydell 
Progress:
 * VIRT-65 [QEMU upstream maintainership]
  + investigated the cause of a hang when using single-threaded TCG
  + sent RFC patchset proposing a rework of the ptimer API/implementation
which will fix LP:177. Unfortunately we'll need to update all
the devices using ptimers. I started in on that process of conversion,
which turns out to be a little more awkward than I had expected;
I ran into at least one corner case I hadn't thought about.

thanks
