This is my week 2 report for my SoC 2023 project “Modern C porting of
\nGentoo packages” at Gentoo Linux.<\/p>\n
Current:
\n– I’ve stuck to my proposal and mainly worked on the
\n“Wincompatible-function-pointer-types” bugs. Honestly, nothing much
\ninteresting did happen.
\n– I was not able to work for 2 days, due to some personal health issues, I
\nplan on making up for them in the following weeks\/days.
\n– MUSL testing environment (chroot) is set up and bugs are being tested
\nagainst it. There are some bugs that still need improvements\/fixes on
\nmusl
\n– Got more of my bugs reviewed by my mentor\/s, while I do need to work
\non those updates.<\/p>\n
Next:
\n– While the “Wincompatible-function-pointer-types” bugs are not
\ncompletely removed from the bug list, I do plan on working on
\ndifferent kinds of bugs in the coming weeks, while also trying to keep
\nup with the aforementioned bug types.
\n– For the first half of the coming two weeks the plan is to work on
\n“Wimplicit-function-declaration” type of bugs, and “Wimplicit-int” on
\nthe later half. To be honest, I didn’t see many bugs in the later type
\nin the bug list, hence if there are fewer I can dedicate some of the
\ntime to the “Wincompatible-function-pointer-types” bugs.
\n– Since I have the musl testing environment up and running, I plan of
\ntesting\/patching most of the bugs on musl environment, especially the
\nones that were found on the musl-clang environment.<\/p>\n
That is it, hopefully, I’ll be come across something interesting for
\npeople reading here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
