RISC-V GCC Patchwork Sync-Up Meeting

RISC-V GCC Patchwork Sync-Up Meeting

[Palmer Dabbelt]

The topic of having some sort of RISC-V development meeting has come up 
a handful of times, but we never got around to actually setting anything 
up.  We've had a patchwork sync meeting for the RISC-V Linux port for a 
few months now and it's been super helpful, I figured it be best to just 
do something similar for GCC.

The idea is sort of copied from the glibc patchwork meeting, but I've 
never been to that before so it's a bit freeform.  Essentially we just 
run through the patch backlog and try to make sure everything has been 
triaged, which can go a lot quicker in real-time.  We also generally 
have time after the triaging to go through and talk about anything 
that's of interest.  Like the other meetings this is very much optional 
-- in other words, we'll still reflect anything discussed onto the 
mailing lists, this is just an additional place to talk.

Here's the Google Meet invite link:

    Tuesday, April 18 · 7:30 – 8:30am

Happy to move to some other service if that's better for folks, this is 
just easy to set up on my end.  We can also move to another time if 
that's better for folks.  We'll start with every week at 7:30am Pacific.  
I've also got a calendar with just this meeting on it, in case it's 
easier to have that imported.

Sorry for the late notice, but I'd forgotten to actually send out an 
email.

A handful of us met today and we decided a few things:

We're going to use the sourceware GCC patchwork.  That's shared between 
all GCC targets and there's a lot of outstanding patches for other 
ports, so we're just going to look at patches with "risc-v" in the 
subject (specifically 
<https://patchwork.sourceware.org/project/gcc/list/?q=risc-v>).  That 
doesn't mean we're going to stop looking at anything else, just that 
we're going to make sure all those patches get triaged regularly.

To make things manageable, we're going to just bulk archive everything 
from 2022 and earlier.  If there's anything in there folks want looked 
it then please ping it, but the assumption is that everything is 
sufficiently out of date that it at least needs to be rebased.

If that's OK with folks then I'll go archive the old RISC-V patches so 
we can get things triaged more easily.

After running a few of these, it turns out Meet has a few headaches so 
we're switching to Zoom.  I've updated the calendar, here's the Zoom
