[llvm-dev] [5.0.0 Release] Schedule and call for testers
Hello everyone, We're about a month away from the start of the 5.0.0 release process, so it's time for the traditional schedule and call for testers email. If you'd like to help providing binaries and testing for your favourite platform, please let me know and subscribe to the release-testers mailing list [1]. This time I will try to delegate a bit more. It's very easy to end up working full time on scanning the commit lists, bisecting bugs, and merging patches --- and I don't have that much time to spend. Especially for bug squashing, I'm hoping to get more of the community involved somehow. Please let me know if you have ideas here. I propose the following schedule for the 5.0.0 release: - 19 July 2017: Create the 5.0 branch, tag RC1 soon after, trunk becomes 6.0.0. - 9 August: Tag RC2; all lose ends should be tied up by now. - 23 August: Final tag. Binaries and release announcement a few days later. Unless there are any concerns, I'll post this on the web page soon. Thanks, Hans [1] http://lists.llvm.org/mailman/listinfo/release-testers

[llvm-dev] [Openmp-dev] [5.0.0 Release] Schedule and call for testers
Out of curiosity, does this mean that enabling the NewGVN pass is pushed off until the llvm 6.0 release?

I don't know what the exact status of NewGVN is, but we generally do timed releases rather than feature-based releases. If it's ready before the branch point and doesn't break during the process it goes in the release, otherwise not. As far as I know it's not enabled yet, so I'm guessing it might not end up in the release. - Hans On Thu, Jun 15, 2017 at 2:12 PM, Jack Howarth <howarth.mailing.lists at gmail.com> wrote:> Out of curiosity, does this mean that enabling the NewGVN pass is > pushed off until the llvm 6.0 release? > Jack > > On Tue, Jun 13, 2017 at 5:29 PM, Hans Wennborg via Openmp-dev > <openmp-dev at lists.llvm.org> wrote: >> Hello everyone, >> >> We're about a month away from the start of the 5.0.0 release process, >> so it's time for the traditional schedule and call for testers email. >> >> If you'd like to help providing binaries and testing for your >> favourite platform, please let me know and subscribe to the >> release-testers mailing list [1]. >> >> This time I will try to delegate a bit more.
