Now that the Linaro release is shipping with a 2.6.35 kernel, we need to
move forward. I therefore created a linux-linaro-2.6.36 tree which
contains the v2.6.36 core code but with the latest ARM specific pieces
from mainline.
This branch is meant to be stable i.e. it won't be rebased, and only
patches believed to be in a state ready for mainline inclusion should be
merged in that tree. That should provide a more recent basis for people
wanting to forward port their work but who are not comfy with a -rc
kernel.
Of course this didn't get any significant level of testing yet. Please
report any issue you may have with it.

Hi,
The Linaro team is pleased to announce the release of Linaro 10.11.
10.11 is the first public release that brings together the huge amount
of engineering effort that has occurred within Linaro over the past 6
months. In addition to officially supporting the TI OMAP3 (Beagle
Board and Beagle Board XM) and ARM Versatile Express platforms, the
images have been tested and verified on a total of 7 different platforms
including TI OMAP4 Panda Board, IGEPv2, Freescale iMX51 and ST-E U8500.
The advances that have happened in this cycle are numerous but include a
completely rebuilt archive using GCC 4.4.4 and the latest ARM optimised
tool chain, the Linux kernel version 2.6.35, support for
cross-compiling, a new hardware pack way of building images, 3D
acceleration improvements, u-boot enhancements and initial device tree
support, a new QA tracking structure, the list goes on. For a full
break-down of what was scheduled for the 10.11 release please see:
http://wiki.linaro.org/Releases/1011/Blueprints
Thanks to everyone involved who made this happen. Here's looking forward
to a sucessful 11.05 release.
To get Linaro 10.11
-------------------
The 10.11 release can be found at:
http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-m/headless/final/
and when combined with a hwpack from:
http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-m/hwpacks/final/
using the instructions from:
http://wiki.linaro.org/Releases/MilestoneBuilds
a installable image is produced.
For any errata issues please see:
http://wiki.linaro.org/Releases/1011/Final#Issues
Bug reports for this release should be filed in Launchpad against the
individual packages that are affected, if a suitable package cannot be
identified, feel free to assign them to:
http://www.launchpad.net/linaro
The team has also produced 3 other non-supported images as part of a
community effort, they are:
* ALIP
* http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-m/alip/final/
* EFL based netbook
* http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-m/netbook/final/
* KDE based plasma handset
* http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-m/plasma/final/
These need to be combined with a hardware pack as above.
Next Steps
----------
Engineering effort has already started on the 11.05 cycle. For more
information on what Linaro will be doing this cycle please see:
http://wiki.linaro.org/Releases/1105

The size correction in lmc happens at the end, so my best guess is that it's
a qemu issue. Id put a bug in against that, and we should probably release
note it as well.

Yep. bzr pulled today. I'm on rev 165.
I've just gone back testing older images and hwpacks I've used in the
past and am seeing the same issue there, so it does seem like its
connected to the linaro-media-create scripts.
Here's the command I'm using, just as listed on the wiki:
#linaro-media-create --image_file beagle_sd.img --image_size 4G --swap_file
200 --dev beagle --binary
linaro-images/linaro-m-headless-tar-20101108-2.tar.gz --hwpack
linaro-images/hwpack_linaro-omap3_20101109-1_armel_supported.tar.gz
Per our irc discussion, I tried reproducing this by omitting the
"--image_size 4G" portion, and indeed it seems that worked and the
resulting image boots fine. Similarly it works fine using 8G. Something
just seems off using 4G.
Looking at linaro-media-create to see if I can narrow anything down.
thanks

Hi,
Due to the Linaro 10.11 final release happening tomorrow and
blueprints still being
ironed out, the next two weeks of release meetings have been cancelled. Normal
release meetings will commence on 2010-11-25. This date is a US holiday but I
expect our non-US friends to join us.
Regards,
Jamie.

I've put a little time into generating a hyper small footprint linaro
headless image. From UDS the two sizes to try and fit into as I
understand are 64M and 128M installed. So with that in mind, via live
helper I created a headless image where none of the recommended
packages were installed. This brings the installed size of the root fs
down to 165Meg installed (excluding hwpacks)
With a little script-foo which I've created to be part of the
live-helper build I can get the rootfs installed size down to
82,240,000. This is without turning to the usual things to slim things
down like busybox as well as without going through /bin /sbin /usr/bin
/usr/lib /lib and pulling out specific function that isn't needed.
What I have done is gone after the low hanging fruit. That is i18n
locales, documentation, zoneinfo, charmaps and some X11 & firefox
things that obviously aren't needed since those things aren't
installed in headless anyway. All of that gets us down to `125Meg. To
get the next approx 40Meg I have to take out /var/lib/dpkg and
/var/lib/apt. This could make a certain amount of sense for a demo
system running on out NAND flash. This is somewhat problematic however
in so much if you want to use linaro-media-create with hwpacks, well
you need apt to work and that comes with the as mentioned 40 Meg price
tag.
Anyway this seemed to be a good Friday night over a beverage type of
hack to gain a little data just to see the effort required.
All in all I do think this is a reasonable approach to get to a "nano"
sized system that would fit into flash. To get that last mile tho, I
think we'd need to turn to busybox, audit the libs and binaries,
adjust the kernel build such that modules are kept to a minimum and
only function actually needed is built in the kernel as well as
working out the last bit of install via something
linaro-media-create-like so that one could at least get things onto an
SD card without too much hackery for test yet not gain the full 123
meg noted below.

Hi all,
The following patches are a bunch of OMAP-related fixes.
In summary these patches:
- allow omap3_defconfig and omap_4430sdp_defconfig to build and boot
- get MMC (somewhat) working on Panda board
- fix a bug that caused all 3630s to be reported as ES1.2 (highly
unlikely that these are available in the wild)
Except for Catalin's patch, all of them were cherry-picked from mainline.
I hope I'm not too late to get these merged.
- Anand
