| _franck_ | shorne: men, there's a lot of work ahead to get GDB upstream ! | 05:22 |
|---|---|---|
| shorne | _franck_: yeah, I am really happy Yao replied with all the detail he did | 05:51 |
| shorne | Its all doable. Wnat to help on any of it? | 05:52 |
| _franck_ | at least you know what needs to be corrected. | 05:52 |
| _franck_ | well if I can with the little time I have | 05:52 |
| shorne | :) Also, he mention Franck Jullien is missing copyright assignment, I assume thats you? Can you confirm? | 05:53 |
| _franck_ | it's me | 05:53 |
| shorne | Did you ever fill out the fsf forms for copyright assignment? are you willing to? | 05:54 |
| shorne | It might be related to the email address in the particular part of code | 05:54 |
| _franck_ | but at some point I think jeremybennett said that as he is the principal author of the port and because he has an assignment we could push code on behalf of him | 05:54 |
| _franck_ | you should change my email in the copyright section | 05:55 |
| _franck_ | and yes, I'm willing to sign papers | 05:55 |
| _franck_ | bbl | 06:01 |
| shorne | _franck_: ok, understood, Ill mention that in my reply. But I am not sure it will be sufficient. I just sent a mail to fsf requesting copyright assignment forms. | 06:12 |
| shorne | Once I figure out the process Ill let you know | 06:12 |
| shorne | Does anyone know how to write a multiple author changeLog? | 06:12 |
| olofk | shorne: jeremybennett is a bit of a ChangeLog fanatic | 06:13 |
| olofk | http://www.embecosm.com/2014/06/12/change-logs-why-they-still-matter/ :) | 06:13 |
| shorne | olofk: I could understand why they are used, Answering why on commit messages is important just as much as changelogs. | 06:20 |
| stekern | "But they cannot show you why it was changed." That is what you should write in the commit msg. | 06:20 |
| shorne | I figured out how to do mutli author changelog entries | 06:20 |
| shorne | something like: | 06:21 |
| shorne | 2016-11-29 Stafford Horne <email@blah> | 06:21 |
| shorne | (tabs?) Someone Else <[email protected]> | 06:21 |
| stekern | isn't there any examples on how to do that in the pre-existing changelogs? | 06:22 |
| shorne | * file.c: added xyz, because blah. | 06:22 |
| shorne | I couldnt find Examples, I found a program that someone wrote to convert ChangeLog to HTML which had a "new feature" to support multi author changelogs. It had an example | 06:23 |
| olofk | shorne: Is the emacs change-log-mode of any help? | 06:56 |
| shorne | olofk: I think it would be if I used emacs. I should try it ouf for editing these gdb files. | 07:24 |
| olofk | Looking at the review now. It's a really helpful review | 07:42 |
| olofk | What's the deal with matchpoints and gdbserver? Are we ok with dropping that? At least for now | 07:43 |
| olofk | And is the readspr deprecated? I have some vague memory that _franck_ did a job to use standard commands for reading out SPRs | 07:46 |
| _franck_ | olofk: I also have this vague memory | 07:48 |
| olofk | :) | 07:49 |
| _franck_ | I changed this in openocd but there is maybe some left in gdb code | 07:49 |
| olofk | ah.. true. | 07:49 |
| shorne | olofk: with gdbserver I think we need to have a build of gdb that runs on openrisc linux. I dont think we have what is needed for that. | 08:31 |
| shorne | Do you know differently? | 08:32 |
| _franck_ | shorne: as for the current status you should check our documentation: http://juliusbaxter.net/openrisc-irc/search?q=gdbserver | 08:35 |
| _franck_ | :) | 08:35 |
| shorne | _franck_: as per your comment 2013: "blueCmd: you have no chance to compile gdbserver, we don't have or1k-linux-tdec.c ...." | 08:46 |
| shorne | but... it seems blueCmd got it working | 08:46 |
| shorne | But I dont find the or1k-linux-tdep anywhere | 08:46 |
| olofk | But we can live without gdbserver for the first patchset I guess? | 08:46 |
| _franck_ | we get some WIP from jonas and blueCmd worked from it | 08:47 |
| shorne | olofk: yea, I am hoping so | 08:47 |
| shorne | _franck_: do you know of any repo? I didnt see in the "docs" :) | 08:48 |
| _franck_ | I'm looking for it | 08:48 |
| _franck_ | I think it was on git.openrisc.net which seems to be down | 08:49 |
| shorne | alright, if anyone finds it let us know, not too important for the first patches. Also, I figure it can be rebuilt since it runs on ptrace which is pretty stable in our linux port. | 08:50 |
| _franck_ | shorne: git://openrisc.net/jonas/gdb | 08:53 |
| _franck_ | that's what I had | 08:53 |
| shorne | _franck_: I see, year that domain is gone, do you have it on any branches you can push somewhere? | 08:55 |
| _franck_ | I don't, maybe be blueCmd | 08:56 |
| shorne | no worries | 08:58 |
| shorne | olofk: re matchpoints I am removing, cant see what its for, maybe related to the debug control registers (there are 8 which matches the max matchpoint value) | 09:13 |
| olofk | shorne: I was thinking it could be something like watchpoints | 15:30 |
| olofk | Anyone got Chisel stuff sorted out and can generate the verilog files for me in https://github.com/sifive/freedom | 16:05 |
| olofk | Would be a great starting point until I have managed to install the Chisel stuff myself | 16:06 |
| ZipCPU | olofk: You might consider asking someone in the #riscv forum ... ? | 16:10 |
| olofk | True | 16:11 |
| shorne | olofk_: right thats what I mean, those debug control registers are for setting watchpoints, there are 8. The code in question also says 8 matchpoints | 22:21 |
