The annual gathering of GCC, Glibc, GDB, and Binutils developers was held in Montreal, September 12-15. Three developers from the Böblingen Linux on Z team joined 3 days packed with discussions and presentations. The full agenda and presentation slides can be found here.
Andreas Krebbel gave a talk about the IBM z15 support in the GNU Toolchain. The new machine was announced just a couple of hours before the conference opening event, so he had the chance to introduce the new mainframe to the toolchain crowd for the first time, receiving a round of spontaneous applause for our new boxes (see here).
Andreas Arnez gave another talk (see here) about challenges we are still facing with debugger support on IBM Z. There was a lively discussion with the top GDB guys resulting in a couple of good ideas about how to proceed.
The remaining videos can be found here.
