The GWG does have a LSK kernel branch with Mali support. (IE accelerated graphics)
We haven't targeted Android as of yet but in the grand scheme things should be reasonably close. Show can say for certain but we'd need a rebase on linux-linaro-lsk-v3.10-android at a minimum.
I'm a little unclear how interesting the LSK android kernel is for the Android team. One of my buffered questions for Khasim.
We do have requests from members to support / maintain Android on LSK. I would let Vishal look at integration, if we find any issues then we can
jump
in to fix specific issues.
Cool.
We do validate Android version of the LSK on ARMv7 and ARMv8
architecture.
Coming back to the support for Mali on LSK for Arndale, It would be interesting to try that out if GWG is planning to support the same.
Yes we are. We have an epic devoted to Mali support on the LSK.
From what I know, the current LSK tree doesn't have complete support for Arndale board and hence we don't have Arndale as one of the target for validating LSK.
I can't speak to all the features of the board. But I can say Show has accelerated Graphics with Mali + patches we obtained from the Samsung LT up and working on Arndale.
So like I mentioned I think a rebase of Show's branch with the LSK android tree might be quite quite close, least for something with a functional accelerated graphics stack.
Show would it be possible to give this is try?
Sure. I might be have a try for this.
But I don't have arndale on hand now. So I cannot have a test for it. Can I try this next Monday?
Regards, Khasim

To be more clear. The board supports accelerated graphics but the LT kernel doesn't have the drivers to have accelerated graphics support.

Hi Botao,
There is no hw acceleration on arndale board.
