[Cec-weeklies] ST40 tools #1517,#1518,#1519


Highlights
-----------
 - Beta Breakpad delived
 - Upstreaming (almost accepted)

Issues
-------
 - Current FSF trunk boostrap broken (delay validations)

Completed
----------
 - Fixed FSF attribute optimize inlining
 - Fixed FSF bad handling of ipa-cp (inlining of functions with constant
propagation)
 - Respinned ARM attribute target (means a week or merging/validation)

Details
--------
 - Breakpad-SH4
    * Beta version delivered to customer for pre-integration testing
      . No news good news. Seems to be integrated into the customer's box.
      . Google upstreaming. All issues addresses. No objection for  landing
      . Cross and on boards testing validation.
      . Rewrote syscall layer for more preprocessor factorization
(denser but more obfuscated)

 - Misc ST40
     obsp,seinit integration
    * Received a B2147 (Alicante) Board
     Board setup done.
    * Meeting (Pierre Gobin, Bruno Tisseran, Seraphin Bonnaffe, Loic
Pallardy, Denis Hory, Ludovic Barre) to discuss SEINIT future
      . Originally maintained in the OBSP by Bristol
      . Integrated with Docsis modem using a "bpl elf patching tool" by
OS team (remoteproc)
      . Knowledge seems to be lost
        -> seinit.o integration ?
        -> Can't rebuild seinit.o. Who is in charge of the sources
(currently embedded in the obsp) ?

      proposal:
        - CEC replaces the elf patching tool by a board spec and a set
of linker commands.
        - CEC Volunteer to get the hands on the seinit sources. (own?)
        - First Experiment to take them out of the OBSP tree (lot of
dependencies).
        - Issue with MMU/TLB/OS setups. Unknown specifications


 - ST40 STlinux Toolchain
     Working on GCC 5.0.0 distribution port
     Progressing on the packages. glibc link error fixes

 - GCC generic and x-targets
     - Working on ipa-cp inconsistencies (small functions not inlined)
         Reduced to a generic case
         x86 fixes accepted.
     - Working on function alignments with attribute ((optimize))
         Generic part fixed.
         Need hooks into the target backends (spread to all backends)
         x86, aarch64, alpha fixed
         other targets still under approvals or still undetected

 - Misc
     Re-spined attribute-target patch
     Fixed documentation
