Hi. I'm looking for the ddeb (debug info) packages which correspond
to the linux kernel deb files which ship in hwpacks (specifically the
omap3 ones). So for instance the 10.11 final release includes
linux-image-2.6.35-1008-linaro-omap_2.6.35-1008.15_armel.deb
in the omap3 hwpack, and this ought to have a corresponding ddeb
(so for a previous snapshot image it was this:
linux-image-2.6.35-1006-linaro-omap-dbgsym_2.6.35-1006.12_armel.ddeb
)
My notes say this sort of ddeb used to live here:
http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/pool/main/l/linux-linaro/
and Steve Langasek on IRC suggested:
http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/pool/universe/l/linux-linaro/
but the former is empty and the latter only contains ddebs for
a version predating the 10.11 final release.
Is the lack of ddebs here a bug, and if so a bug in what?
thanks in advance

Several people were asking me what the Linaro kernel actually is, what
it contains, the patch acceptance criteria, etc. And since this
happened while I was also questioning our previous kernel maintenance
process[1], I took upon myself to formally document what the current
process is for the benefit of all, so people (including myself) could
refer to it in the future.
So, per popular requests, this is now live:
https://wiki.linaro.org/WorkingGroups/KernelConsolidation/KernelTree
Please feel free to send me comments, or ask more questions if something
is not clear.

Hi, Kernel WG,
Can recent kernel handle NEON registers in corefiles?
Seems we've had plan for this in "Ensure full NEON debug support" in
https://wiki.linaro.org/WorkingGroups/KernelConsolidation/Specs/BSPInvestig…
Any progress on this piece of work? We want to handle NEON registers in
corefiles from GDB, which required kernel dump them in corefile first.
Hi. I have a question about a detail in the OMAP3 TRM, which I
was hoping some omap-savvy person on this list might be able
to answer.
This is about the GPMC prefetch engine register
GPMC_PREFETCH_STATUS and specifically its FIFOTHRESHOLDSTATUS
bit. I've been using the OMAP35xx TRM (document SPRUF98L, rev L)
as reference.
The register summary on page 1176 says "set when FIFOPointer
exceeds FIFOThreshold value" and is clear that it is 1 if Pointer
> Threshold. However the description on page 1141 says "The
FIFOPOINTER indicates the current number of available data to be
read; FIFOTHRESHOLDSTATUS set to 1 indicates that at least
FIFOTHRESHOLD bytes are available from the FIFO", ie the bit is
set if Pointer >= Threshold. The text on p1143 is similar.
So is the bit set for Pointer > Threshold or Pointer >= Threshold?
(Greater-than-or-equal makes more conceptual sense to me and
would match the condition in which GPMC_IRQSTATUS's
FIFOEVENTSTATUS bit is set.)
(I'm looking at this because I'm implementing the prefetch engine
in qemu.)
thanks in advance
