## Overview
10+
11+
Thanks again to [Open Source Security, inc](https://opensrcsec.com/) and
12+
[Embecosm](https://www.embecosm.com/) for their ongoing support for this
13+
project.
14+
15+
### Project update
16+
17+
The progress done by students this month has been amazing, with multiple
18+
improvements on all projects. The tool developed by [Muhammad
19+
Mahad](https://github.com/MahadMuhammad) to adapt `rustc` testcases into
20+
`gccrs` ones is almost ready, and will soon be used to import the entire
21+
`rustc` testsuite to our project. [Jasmine
22+
Tang](https://github.com/badumbatish) has made great progress on
23+
compiling her inline assembly nodes, and is now figuring out the last
24+
few details in order to support all of the inline assembly concepts used
25+
by GCC. Finally, [Kushal Pal](https://github.com/braw-lee) has been
26+
adding location information throughout the entire borrow-checking pass
27+
of the compiler, and we are now able to emit proper errors with nice
28+
hints for users to benefit from.
29+
30+
We are also joined by two new contributors this month, both spending a
31+
lot of time on some long-standing compiler issues and producing good
32+
quality work. Thank you both :)
33+
34+
Our 14.2 patches have not been reviewed, and thus did not make it into
35+
the 14.2 release. This is not important, as the patches only concerned
36+
documentation changes. Instead, we will be able to upstream these
37+
patches without prior reviewing from the GCC maintainers in time for the
38+
15.1 release, as they only concern the Rust frontend files. Regarding
39+
our 15.1 milestones, we are currently tackling name resolution issues as
40+
well as solving the issue of [#lang_items](https://doc.rust-lang.org/unstable-book/language-features/lang-items.html),
41+
which have been a long-standing pain point in the compiler. They are
42+
supported in all of their facets, except when used for code generation,
43+
which has to do with how `gccrs` handles paths in general. Fixing this
44+
will make it easier for us to properly desugar `for`-loops, as well as a
45+
few other language constructs.
46+
47+
### Community call
48+
49+
We will have our next monthly community call on the 12th of August at
50+
9am UTC. You can subscribe to our calendar to see when the next one will
51+
be held. The call is open to everyone, even if you would just like to
52+
sit-in and listen. You can also subscribe to our
53+
[mailing-list](https://gcc.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gcc-rust) or join
54+
our [Zulip chat](https://gcc-rust.zulipchat.com) to be notified of
55+
upcoming events.

## Call for contribution
66+
67+
- [Issue 3001: Generic arguments are not disambiguated on error
68+
propagation
69+
expressions](https://github.com/Rust-GCC/gccrs/issues/3001)
70+
71+
Our error propagation expressions (expressions which use the question
72+
mark operator, of the form `<expr>?`) are currently forgotten in many of
73+
our AST visitors. As a result, there are unexpected cases when it comes
74+
to various parts of the compiler pipeline handling them. In that
75+
particular case, the function call's generic arguments are not
76+
disambiguated - the compiler does not know if it needs to be handling a
77+
generic type, or a const generic value. You will need to add handling to
78+
our name resolution pass for these error propagation expressions. It
79+
would be helpful to look at [the current generic
80+
disambiguation](https://github.com/Rust-GCC/gccrs/blob/75049a3bfee8c3f888994bce3b741a805c631c2a/gcc/rust/resolve/rust-ast-resolve-type.cc#L568)
81+
to start figuring out where it is called from, and where you need to
82+
call it.
