Hello!
Just a reminder, we are going to try to use IRC rather than phone for
today's linaro-kernel meetings.
Let's use #linaro-kernel on Freenode for today's linaro-kernel meetings.
Thanx, Paul

== Kernel ==
* Reviewed Freescale MXS and Via WMT MMC drivers
== SD card performance ==
* Wrote article about my test results, to be published on lwn.net
(not too many things this week, spent a lot of time on the article)

=== Activity ===
==== hardware-n-kernel-standard-architecture ====
* Upstream link-time discard versus SMP_ON_UP problem still
not fixed. More discussion with Russell: expect this to
converge on some kind of solution within the next week or 2.
In the meantime, I may suggest temporary merging of my
workaround patch in linaro.
* omap3/4 Thumb-2 compatiblity patches re-posted. Did some
power management testing to exercise the code: power off
suspend _may_ work on Beagle xM, but this board is hit by an
erratum which makes it hard to test.
Weirdly, this problem only strikes when the kernel is built
in Thumb-2, but I can find no actual bug so far.
Tony Lindgren has picked up my tree and my try to test this
this.
==== performance-linaro-n-memory-footprint ====
* Methodology proposal now agreed with Steve Langasek, with a
couple of minor modifications:
https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/DevPlatform/Specs/MemoryFootprintMethodolo…
==== miscellaneous ====
* Spent some time helping debug boot partition layout
generated by linaro-media-create on OMAP.
==== Plans ====
* Tidy up the proposal for link-time section discard avoidance
and report.
* Discuss prioritisation for outstanding kernel tasks.
* Write up the output from the Freescale i.MX BSP review
discussion, and post for comment.
==== Absences ====
None planned.
Please indicate hardware requests as noted below!
Thanx, Paul

Hello!
The February 24th feature freeze is coming up very quickly. We therefore
need any kernel patches that are to be included into the 11.05 Linaro kernel
release to be submitted to linaro-dev (CCing nicolas.pitre(a)linaro.org)
as well as upstream as soon as possible. Otherwise, we cannot guarantee
that they will be included in the upcoming Linaro kernel release.
Thanx, Paul
