AArch64 roughly halfway through. 16:06:36 in short this mass rebuild cycle seems to have been more painful than some of the recent ones 16:06:46 it seems so 16:07:36 #info Toolchain issues blocking on AArch64 should now be resolved. 16:07:55 thanks for the update, anything else to add? 16:08:11 nope 16:08:12 gcc6 updated, kernel builds 16:08:30 thats kernel :), next up 16:08:32 systemd issue should be fixed for virt too 16:08:59 now we have the binutils in place and that systemd was fixed to build against newer kernel/glibc 16:10:14 #topic 2) ==== Kernel Status ==== 16:10:58 there's issues with some ARMv7 devices at the moment 16:11:09 so we've a few issues here.. armv7 we've got some issues with the kernel for allwinner and vexpress, seems to have broken around rc1 16:11:14 possibly a toolchain issue 16:11:40 investigating as I get time, I need to update a bunch of devices and do further testing 16:11:43 4.5-rc1 on mustang got bugs reported: 1306169 (no usb), 1306151 (no reboot) 16:12:13 yes, known, will investigate one the userspace is in better shape 16:12:26 #info Possible toolchain issue with Allwinner and vexpress on kernel 4.5, being investigated.
