Linux kernel patches Android changes: Android is one of the largest downstream consumers of our work. Our continuous integeration tests the Android trees with newer versions of LLVM to help catch any issues that will impact Android once they upgrade their version of LLVM, which can lag behind at times. ...

Linux kernel patches Miscellaneous improvements: These are series or patches that do not really fit into any of the other categories I typically use with my reports. Allow CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF5=y + CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y (v1) tools/resolve_btfids: Do not print any commands when building silently (v1) -Wenum-conversion: This warning occurs when one enumerated type is implicitly converted to another enumerated type, which is typically a bug, although it might not actually be a problem in practice if the used enum has the same value as the intended enum (which is the case here). It is still good to get it corrected, as the enums might not stay in sync. ...

Linux kernel patches Stable patches: The stable trees are the trees that most users consume so keeping them building and as warning and issue free as reasonable is important. [PATCH 5.4] Input: touchscreen - Fix backport of a02dcde595f7cbd240ccd64de96034ad91cffc40 (v1) [PATCH RFC 4.9 0/5] Fix booting arm64 big endian with QEMU 5.0.0+ (v1) [PATCH 4.4,4.9] power: reset: ltc2952: Fix use of floating point literals (v1) Patches for clang and CONFIG_WERROR (arm64/x86_64) -Wpointer-bool-conversion: This warning is usually harmless, as it is typically just a developer checking if an array in the middle of a structure is NULL, which is not possible if the structure is not NULL, which would likely cause issues further up a call chain. In this one case, the fix was just to remove the check. ...

Linux kernel patches Android patches: Android is one of the biggest downstream consumers of our work. Making sure that it stays working is incredibly important so that it can reach real users.

Linux kernel patches Build errors: These are hard errors that appear for one reason or another. The first two are from a recent change in LLVM to avoid crashing the compiler (see the commit message for more details, I learned floating point literals exist in C). The third series is a resend that fixes ARCH=hexagon allmodconfig, which is an important target for us because ARCH=hexagon requires LLVM. Lastly, the final series fixes a generic issue uncovered by the kernel test robot with an ARCH=hexagon randconfig. ...
This was a bit of a shorter month for me, as I took some vacation at the beginning of the month to recouperate and meet half of my girlfriend’s extended family and friends for the first time. Thankfully, the rest of the ClangBuiltLinux team was able to keep everything churning along in my absence and I was able to be super productive the rest of the month once I returned. ...
