Priorities

• GCC

  • Autovectorization

    • Wire up the basics

    • identify key problems with VLA style autovec – these turn until future work items

  • Distro Blocker Items (atomics now, stack-clash at some point, then shadow stacks)

  • Wrapping up many in-flight optimizations from various RISE members and others

    • Work landing in the trunk during Q2/Q3 of 2023 won't show up in official release until Q2 2024!

    • Provide collaboration branch for various organizations that need a stable base (ie gcc-13) with optimization work such as autovec layered on top

    • Major work for gcc-14 needs to be complete by mid Oct – avoid a repeat of having key feature work going on during release cycle

• LLVM

  • Autovectorization

    • Basics already in place

    • More a focus on identifying and fixing missed vectorizations and VLA style vectorization

  • Distro Blocker Items (atomics, shadow stacks, perhaps stack clash at some point
