Good day y'all, Many of you have received a gerrit review request that concerns Gator and a kernel API change that happened between 3.3 and 3.4. If you maintain a build associated to a board, please review. The problem happens when compiling an android build with a 3.4 kernel. The Gator driver is looking for the 'd_alloc_root' function when compiling 'gator_fs.c', something that is provided by the kernel. But commit [1] has replaced the function with 'd_make_root' during the 3.4 merge cycle. Zach suggested to point the last SHA of the old API to avoid spinning off yet another branch, something that was implemented as part of [2]. If you are the last one to review and have merge rights, please push the changes. Best regards, Mathieu. [1]. 32991ab vfs: d_alloc_root() gone [2]. http://review.android.git.linaro.org/#change,2014

No group tracks at Connect

by Zach Pfeffer

While we're planning for connect, I'd like to suggest that we do away with team tracks all together and just have topic tracks. This would align with our topic based approach to things now, and would be a way to breakdown our silo's. The topic track would be lead by a topic champion.

linaro-android/tracking-panda-11.10-release:-Source Build Download Error

by Vinayak K. Tulasidas Bhat

Hi all, I happen to find out through the link given below that Linaro 11.10 Release-tracking panda-android is supporting Audio Record feature and hence decided to try it out. https://blueprints.launchpad.net/linaro-android/+spec/enable-audio-on-le b-panda I downloaded the LEB's for the Linaro 11.10 tracking-panda-android Release and tested it on a Pandaboard. Audio recording was working fine. Now I wanted to download the Source build for the LEB's and also the kernel. When I tried to download the Source build as per the steps explained in the link below given below, https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/GetSource I encounter the following error:- >>From git://android.git.linaro.org/platform/development >> 6c368d2..799fada master -> korg/master >>Fetching projects: 28% (52/185) fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly >>fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly >>error: Cannot fetch people/pawelmoll/gator Please let me what can be done to resolve this error.

flashing android on Pandaboard ES issue

by Quang Phan

Hi, I bought the Pandaboard ES and was trying to flash Android on the board. I've followed the instructions from https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/ImageInstallation. After I flashed the bootloader and filesystem onto the SDCard and plugged it into the board, the board seems to generate errors while loading the kernel. Attached is the output of the board in HyperTerminal. Please let me know what I can do to get android running on my Pandaboard ES. Thank you,Quang Phanquang734(a)Hotmail.com

name convention of Android LEB image file

by Akira Tsukamoto

Hi, The current Android LEB image has good name convention and I like it very much. If it is possible, I would appreciate to have build number in the file name too. For example currently: at http://releases.linaro.org/12.03/android/leb-panda/ has panda-ics-gcc46-tilt-tracking-blob.img.gz but it is not clear from the file name that which build have been used for creating this image from bellow link: https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/panda-ics-gcc46-til… How about having build number at the end of file name like <target>-<android>-<toolchain>-<kernel_origin>-<kernel_type>-<enablement_type>-<build> panda-ics-gcc46-tilt-tracking-blob-6.img.gz for https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/panda-ics-gcc46-til… It makes easier to find where is the original contents for the created binary image just by the file name. Regards, Akira

About gdbserver on linaro Android

by 林文

Hi, I am writing to ask you a question about gdbserver. I am running linaro-android panda-11.10-release on my pandaboard. https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/panda-11.10-release/ My program prints out "bus error" when it runs on Android. So I hope to use gdbserver to debug it. However, when I run gdbserver on Android, it gives out a "Segmentation fault" So, how can I run gdbserver successfully? To build a new version of gdbserver from source codes? Hope you could give me some suggestions. Thanks! Lin

linaro-android-build-cmds-sh test

by Paul Larson

I was trying to run the linaro-android-build-cmds-sh a few times now, and I've never actually been able to get all the way through it. First time was due to a lack of space. The drive I tried to run it on had 6G left, but apparently that's not enough. So I ran it again on a drive with much more free space. This is running on a core i7, 8GB ram. After 12 hours, I finally got far enough to get an error telling me that vendor.tar.bz2 didn't exist (it did... just not in the path after it did a cd - submitted a small bug for this which should be a very easy fix). So I'm trying again, but my question is, should we really be including this test for every build, given that it takes so long to run? How long does this normally take to run? Thanks, Paul Larson
