I'm trying to plan for GCC 4.3 Stage 1. The IPA branch project is
clearly a good thing, and you've been working on it for a long time, so
I'd really like to get it into GCC 4.3. However, I'm a little
concerned, in reading the project description, that it's not all that
far along. I'm hoping that I'm just not reading the description well,
and that you can explain things in a way that makes it obvious to me
that the work is actually almost done.
The Wiki page says "first part of patches was already sent", but I can't
tell how much that is, or how many of the "modifications required" steps
are already done. Have you completed all the work on the IPA branch
itself, so that it's just a problem of merging? How much of the merging
have you actually done? What version of mainline corresponds to the
root of the IPA branch? Have maintainers with appropriate write
privileges reviewed the patches?
I'm not in any way trying to send a negative signal about this work. I
have every hope that it will be merged soon. I just want to better
understand the situation.
Thanks,
