... or otherwise changing the architecture of the system or some
significant component.

I don't see any architecture here to be reviewed, so the only approval
I'd think would be necessary would be the RTI (requiring design and
code review, as needed).

Ok.  Thanks everyone for the insights and clarity.  I will set the issue
down for a little bit until I've cleared out my current task load.  Once I'm
able to pick it up and run it the full way through, I'll:
 re-apply the diffs to current code,
 apply some of the review comments that were made initially,
 re-submit for a code review,
 request a sponsor to commit for me,
 and wrap up.

Thanks again,
Mark

Got it up now at http://cr.opensolaris.org/~devnull/6515400/
Thanks, Prashanth.

Updated wiki at
http://wikis.sun.com/display/SunStudio/Using+gccfss+with+OpenSolaris

Presumably this requires some sort of ARC or fast-track or similar approval,
can anyone confirm this?

Thanks

I didn't check all the files, but the ones I saw were all of the form
of fixing function prototypes or adding type casts - nothing that requires
review beyond basic code-review.   ARC would only get involved if you're
changing function definitions or other interfaces, and then only if they're
functions exposed to other applications/modules/etc.

The glitch is that the person who did the fix isn't in one of
the Solaris groups.  They were in the compiler group.  Nobody
in the compiler group (that I know of) has used cr.opensolaris.org
before.  From the web site it doesn't look hard to use, but
nobody has done it yet.  I've updated the description of the
bug with a pointer to cr.opensolaris.org and a recommendation
that someone needs to post the webrev.  At least so interested parties
can apply the diffs in their own source trees if they want to.

[request-sponsor] [tools-compilers] Bug ID 6515400 and gccfss?

[Mark Martin]

What is the procedure for picking up a bug that is in state 6 (Fix
understood) and getting sponsorship for same?  My apologies if I've missed
obvious documentation somewhere.

I'm not requesting sponsorship at this moment -- I've already got a full
plate.  I'm trying to figure out how to make it possible to "stimulate"
progress on at least some the (possible) fixes attached to that bug.

Thanks,
Mark

[request-sponsor] [tools-compilers] Bug ID 6515400 and gccfss?

[Bonnie Corwin]

Hi Mark,

Related to the OpenSolaris Sponsor program, there is no special 
procedure for bugs in a particular state.  Contributors are encouraged 
to ask about specific bugs on the request-sponsor alias.  Someone (me if 
no one else volunteers) can check whether there is really anyone working 
the bug ("Fix Understood" doesn't necessarily mean someone is actively 
working on a fix.).

With regard to the note in the email thread below about someone in the 
"osol group inside Sun" posting webrevs of suggested fixes: I assume 
this is a reference to the team that owns the bug as that is the only 
team that can make information about the bug available to the community.

Bonnie
