~ Progress ~
* AArch64 OpenOCD. [6/10]
Solder and desolder the JTAG joint on HiKey. Tried different JTAG
options, but still can't get OpenOCD working.

* Patches review. [3/10]
** ILP32 GDB. Help cavium to reduce fails from 500 to 70.
GDB patch is OK, but there are still some regressions on ilp32
vs. lp64 on aarch64. Steve is still investigating on them.
** SVE GDB. Remove MAX_REGISTER_SIZE. Look people tend to agree
the way removing MAX_REGISTER_SIZE. Looking forward to Alan's
patches :)
** Kernel awareness debugging. Reviewed the cover letter of IBM's
patches. Want to share the common kernel debugging part between
IBM and Linaro.

* Schengen visa. [1/10] Fill in more in application form. Document
preparation.

~ Plan ~
* Kernel awareness debugging. Continue reviewing IBM's patches, and
figure out how to share the code.
* Go to London for visa application on Friday.
