Restoring svn write access

[Josh Conner]

My apologies in advance for the spam if this isn't the right forum. I
had svn access in a former life (jcon...@apple.com), and I'm trying to
restore my access for my new employer. I sent an email to overseers
last week, but haven't heard back.

So... can anyone here tell me if there is some way to restore my
access, or if should I re-apply for provisioning?

Thanks!

GCC Copyright Assignment Forms for the RISC-V Port

[Palmer Dabbelt]

Andrew and I maintain various GNU toolchain forks that contains a port to the
RISC-V architecture .  We're finishing up the binutils
upstreaming process and would like to submit patches to GCC.  When I signed the
copyright assignment for binutils I was told that the GCC process was
different.  GCC's contributing page

  https://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html

suggests I send email here to get the GCC copyright assignment forms.  Andrew
and I would both like to sign the forms for past and future changes, and SiFive
(Andrew's employer) will need the employer disclaimer if it's different than
the binutils one.

Thanks!

Did you not see the reply from Gerald Pfeifer?  You might want to
check your spam filter.  You asked what your user ID was on
gcc.gnu.org, and he said the answer was "jconner".

cmpstrnsi pattern should check for zero byte?

[Aaron Sawdey]

I am about to put up a patch to make a change to the way
builtins.c/expand_builtin_strncmp does things. At present it will only
expand if one of the strings is a constant, and the length it passes in
is MIN(len, strlen(constant string)+1). I want to change it so that it
will also attempt to expand strncmp where neither of the input strings
is a constant.

What I ran into is that the i386 target cmpstrnsi pattern uses repz
cmpsb which does not check for the zero byte and thus depends on
expand_builtin_strncmp to arrange things so the length is not past the
end of both strings.

SH and RX are the other two targets that have cmpstrnsi patterns.

My reading of sh_expand_cmpnstr() in sh-mem.cc is that the code that it
emits will both look for a zero byte and compare the strings so it will
not have trouble with this change to expand_builtin_strncmp.

It also looks to me like rx.md emits the "scmpu" instruction to do the
comparison. The RX manual I found showed pseudocode for scmpu that
shows it both checks for zero byte as well as comparing the strings.

If this isn't correct, please let me know here or on the patch itself.

Thanks,
    Aaron
