Hi Andrey,
This is more of announcement than a PULL request. :)
Most of us are working with interactive governor. But most of us use a different version of it, as it is not yet mainlined and there is no hope of it getting mainlined.
http://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/linaro-kernel/2012-February/001122.html
So, we have decided to keep the latest version within Linaro and make it part of our release, so that everybody works with the same version and use it in ubuntu as well.
I am keeping it in my big LITTLE MP repository in separate branches:
- cpufreq-interactive-gov-master-v*: Latest version of governor from google tree
- cpufreq-interactive-gov-experimental-v*: Rebased over master with updates from Linaro.
This is a PULL request for master branch:
Linaro's kernel tree already has an interactive governor which is provided by the Android topic branch, so isn't trying to integrate another version going to cause a lot of problems for whoever maintains the two versions and the person having to merge them?
