Hi Marius. I've cc'ed this to the linaro-android list. They might be
able to help.

Looks like MTP. Does anyone else have an opinion?

I think we may want to get a thread going on this and we can handle it
as a feature request.

Should be okay. What change do you need to make?
Adding everyone else.

Hey all,
Today is Chengjie's last day as a Linaro assignee. I'd like to thank
him for his great work on the Linaro Android team over the last 6
months. He has had a big hand in supporting Origen and improving test
automation.
Chengjie is still keen on helping Linaro. He will transition to a
community member, where he'll be able to help out (without being
required to file status :).
Its been great to have you on the team Chengjie, thanks!

Hi All,
The performance is very slow when i updated android from 2.3 to 4.0.4 on
iMX53. Cursor movement is very very slow while unlocking. How should i
improve performance on IMX53 with android 4.0.4.
Thanks &

Swaraj
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am trying to download Linaro-android/staging-panda-11.11-release source
code with repo and git.
I followed the instruction in the following link
https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/GetSource.
When I tried to run the "repo init" and "repo sync" command, I got the
following error information:
*Proxy could not open connnection to android.git.linaro.org: Forbidden*
*fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly*
*fatal: cannot obtain manifest git://
android.git.linaro.org/platform/manifest.git*
So, I changed the git connection in MANIFEST_REPO environment variant and
staging-panda.xml file to
http://android.git.linaro.org/git
The connection established but the speed is pretty slow -- average in
10kB/s.
Is there any faster solution to get the code?
Thank you,
David Qian

Hi,
I have a question about adding pm-qa into Android. Could you give me some
help?
There are many scripts in pm-qa. Each script is independent test case.
My question is how to make the Android build the pm-qa automatically
without a modification of target/product/core.mk.
Take the cpuidle which is one of pm-qa test modules.
(1) There are cpuidle_01.sh, cpuidle_02.sh, cpuidle_03.sh and
cpuidle_killer.c in pm-qa/cpuidle/ folder.
(2) The Android.mk lists cpuidle_01.sh, cpuidle_02.sh, cpuidle_03.sh and
cpuidle_killer as independent modules.
~~~~~cpuidle Android.mk~~~~~~~~~
include $(call all-subdir-makefiles)
LOCAL_PATH:= $(call my-dir)
module_name = cpuidle
define $(module_name)_add_executable
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS := optional
LOCAL_MODULE_CLASS := tests
LOCAL_MODULE := $1.sh
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := $1.sh
LOCAL_MODULE_PATH :=
$(TARGET_OUT_OPTIONAL_EXECUTABLES)/pm-qa/$(module_name)
include $(BUILD_PREBUILT)
endef
test_num := 01 02 03
$(foreach item,$(test_num),$(eval $(call $(module_name)_add_executable,
$(module_name)_$(item))))
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE := cpuidle_killer
LOCAL_SRC_FILES:= cpuidle_killer.c
LOCAL_STATIC_LIBRARIES := libcutils libc
LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS := tests
LOCAL_MODULE_PATH := $(TARGET_OUT_OPTIONAL_EXECUTABLES)/pm-qa/$(module_name)
include $(BUILD_EXECUTABLE)
(3) Is it possible only add the pm-qa/cpuide folder under
(Android_platform)/external/pm-qa, and the Android build system will build
the pm-qa/cpuidle automatically?
BRs,
Kejun
