  • The investigation on the 6 run failures is done. It turns out they are not Oz-specific failures, i.e. these 6 test cases failed for all optimization levels but our error reporting mechanism didn't catch the failures because we only checked the "passed" output string but didn't check shadow stack fault. We've fixed the error reporting system.
    The root cause of the shadow stack fault on the 6 test cases is due to a lack of setjmp/longjmp support to save and restore shadow stack pointer.
  • We will study glibc and try to add the support. We will also add Zicfiss instructions that are required by setjmp/longjmp into Spike for validation purpose, such as ssrdp, ssld, etc.
