== Progress ==

* Out of office on Friday [2/10]

* TCWG-1155 - Move ASAN 39bit bot to GlobalISel [1/10]
- Committed a quick fix and started seeing green builds on this, we
can probably move it upstream soon

* TCWG-836 - Replace D01s by Scaleway boards [2/10]
- Set up a selfhost buildbot on one of the Scaleway boards
- It is very, very slow, I did some performance experiments but
there's probably more that can be attempted here

* TCWG-1172 - [ARM GlobalISel] Support G_FCMP [2/10]
- The hard float part is implemented, fiddling with the soft float now
- Forked some of that work into a different story for supporting G_SELECT

* TCWG-1174 - [ARM GlobalISel] Support G_SELECT [1/10]
- In progress

* Misc [2/10]
- Mailing lists, code reviews
- TCWG-1136 - LLVM 4.0.1 - Spun up and uploaded the final release candidate
- TCWG-1177 - Investigate failure on clang-cmake-aarch64-lld -
Bisected and reverted a commit upstream

== Plan ==

* More GlobalISel
* More buildbots
* More code reviews

[TCWG-614] Range extension thunks
- No progress on upstream reviews from maintainers this week
I have received some interest on IRC and on at least one of the
reviews from other people wanting the feature so I'm hoping that this
may speed up the process.
- I've committed to rebasing and posting the full patch-set for review
so that interested people can take it and test.

PR31159 Tracked down why LLD wasn't correctly linking ARM BSD port
- lld only provides a dummy absolute value for _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_
- llvm-mc doesn't transform .word _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ - . into
R_ARM_BASE_PREL like GNU as does, this relocation doesn't use the
value of _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ . Instead we get R_ARM_REL32 which
needs _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ to be set correctly. PR335511
- Patch accepted upstream will commit today

Misc:
- lld consultancy for Android
- Help to fix build error on clang for ARM colleague
- Query on lld behaviour with respect to .ARM.extab, I think lld
behaviour is within spec, but it may be producing larger files so
probably enough to argue the case for a small patch.
-No time to spend on compiler-rt this week

Plans:
- Post all the range-thunk patches for the people interested in it.
- Commit patches accepted last week
