Hello,

Linaro Infrastructure group is glad to announce support for restricted-access builds for Linaro Android. Such builds will allow us to adhere to our members' licensing and business restrictions for limited-access features, while still as much as possible to follow established Linaro open process, and let general public to be in loop on the upcoming great new features for the ARM platform. Restricted builds are used immediately for ongoing big.LITTLE enablement work.

Restricted builds are available in our standard Android Build System, in a separate tab:

https://android-build.linaro.org/#builds=restricted

Members of the Launchpad group "linaro-android-restricted" are able to setup new builds (please note that this group doesn't allow direct access to restricted source code or downloads, only gives the ability to establish a restricted build). Administrators of the group include Alexander Sack and Zach Pfeffer, they should be contacted for membership requests.

To set up a restricted build, select "linaro-android-restricted" as the owning group in the dropdown on "New build" page (this is UI change from previously available checkbox to create an official build, all choices are now available in dropdown). As second step, add/replace value of the following build config variable:

BUILD_TYPE=build-android-restricted

If you have a question regarding this functionality or found a bug, please submit it directly or via the bug tracker at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linaro-android-infrastructure

Thanks, Paul
