== This Week ==

* LTO (3/10)
a) section anchors:
- prototype patch to bind functions to global vars
- looked at balanced partitioning
b) chromium LTO build fails with ICE on trunk for arm-linux-gnueabihf:
http://pastebin.com/sX6yKLBP
c) ipa-comdat
- Looked at the pass.
- trying to address TODO: put symbol in it's own comdat section

* Validation (1/10)
- prototype job in bash.

* Holidays (6/10)

== Next Week ==
Continue ongoing tasks

Assuming this is FSF trunk, it needs a bug report upstream for GCC 6.

== Progress ==
* Validation
- extended validation: submitted ABE patch for discussion
- noticed random results on some tests in the Cambridge lab.
maybe caused by excessive load on the tester, or stdout/stderr problems
- investigating how to actually separate stdout/stderr streams in dejagnu

* GCC:
- branch merge review for 2016.03 snapshot
- AdvSIMD/Neon intrinsics tests: more cleanup, wondering about
poly128_t prototypes

* Misc (conf calls, meetings, emails, ....)

== Next ==
* Validation:
- more on extended validation
- random tests investigation
- more on stdout/stderr

* GCC:
- trunk monitoring, report regressions if needed
- intrinsics tests cleanup
