Progress:
* VIRT-65 [QEMU upstream maintainership]
- Softfreeze this week, so a lot of pull request handling, and
one last small arm pullreq to put together and send out
- Our Coverity Scan setup was broken (the person who usually does
the builds updated his machine to a newer Fedora which broke the tool).
I pulled up an old patchset I had from a year ago which scripts things
so you can do a build-and-upload automatically via Docker so that
we're not dependent on one person for this. This took longer than I
expected as there were a bunch of things that needed fixing both in
the scripting and in bits of the codebase that the tools warned about.
Patch series sent.
- When we did get a Coverity run through, it reported 112 new issues;
spent some time going through and triaging them (lots of false positives
but also lots of real bugs) and submitting patches for some of them.
* VIRT-364 [QEMU support for ARMv8.1-M extensions]
- sketched out the work required and created some 'story' level
cards to go under the epic. Still open questions:
+ should we model Cortex-M55 or a more generic 'max' CPU?
+ what board model do we want to use?
+ does LITE have any guest code using v8.1M features for testing?
Random notes:
* my new desk chair and standing desk arrived this week
(the latter still needs assembling...) so I am gradually
improving the rough edges of my WFH setup.
thanks
