GCC 8.0.1 Status Report (2018-03-27)

[Richard Biener]

Status
======

The GCC 8 trunk is open for regression and documentation fixes.  Following
past releases we are aiming at a first release candidate mid April though
if you look at the quality data below that looks ambitious.

So please help tackling (and confirming, bisecting, reducing, etc.)
regressions to make a timely release of GCC 8 possible.

Priority          #   Change from last report

I have 3 Intel CET patches pending review:

https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2018-03/msg01356.html
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2017-12/msg00485.html
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2017-10/msg01741.html

I also opened:

https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=85086

I have a patch at

https://github.com/hjl-tools/gcc/commit/e9ff815941406e38fa629947af4d809b9129e860

which requires unwind ABI extension.

I'd like to see them fixed to get working Intel CET support in
GCC 8.

Thanks.
