== Device Tree ==
* Sent out the full support of mx51 platform dt clock for review
* Sent out esdhc-imx dt support for review
== Misc ==
* Tested linaro-media-create on mx51evk board, found and reported issues
of udisks dependency, card/reader compatibility, and proxy support
* Helped Richard reproduce and figure out the root cause of SD/MMC CRC
error regression

=== Highlights ===
== U-Boot Cache Maintenance ==
* Sent out the v2 series
== U-Boot Thumb2 ==
* Fixed issue with weakly linked functions and Thumb2
* This issue came out when I enabled Thumb after applying
cache maintenance patches.
== Device Tree ==
* Adding support for clkdev based clock lookup for Samsung platforms.
Existing clock lookup code depends on device id in platform device and
this causes clock lookup (clk_get) to fail when booting with device
tree.
== Misc ==
* Was on leave from 1st March to 14th March.

=== Highlights ===
* Patch set for DMA support in USB for U8500 is ready and is in
internal review.
* Work on bug # 709245 not started yet.
=== Plans ===
* Push DMA patch set out as soon as possible. It depends on the
outcome of internal review which is expected tomorrow. There may still
be a chance to get them in before merge window opens.
* Would like to investigate bug # 709245 but keeping it at lower priority.
Thanks,

====DT====
* MX51 basic DT support: V4(use Linaro copyright and sign off )send
out hope that it's ready for Grant can get merge it.
* Investigate to add new device support with MX51 babbage board such
as I2C, GPIO, MMC, etc.
====Kernel configuration ====
* NONE
====Misc====
* MX53 LOCO board support, patch set get merged to u-boot-imx next branch:
* http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot/u-boot-imx.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/next
* Some Linaro bug fix and analysis
=== Plans ===
* DT support for mx51 babbage board and to add more device support
===Issues===
* NONE
== RCU priority boosting ==
* No progress this week due to travel and meetings
== Processes ==
* More Linaro TSC License processing
== Misc ==
* RCU patches for 2.6.39 merge window accepted into -tip
* Travel to Bangalore for upcoming TSC meeting (and lots of LTC meetings)
* Named program committee chair for Linux Plumbers Conference
== John Stultz <jstultz_vm> ==
=== Highlights ===
* Released first pass demo code of the kconfig fragments work, got some
decent feedback. Although opinion seems to be that upstream acceptance
is needed first (reasonably so), but that is likely to cause this
solution to the config work to be deferred into the next release.
* Got a panda board, and started work on bringing it up with the Linaro
Android kernel the android_omap4_defconfig.
* Published up a Linaro-Android 2.6.38 based tree:
http://git.linaro.org/gitweb?p=people/jstultz/android.git;a=summary
* My android talk got accepted at ELC.
* Got my RTC cleanups pending for 2.6.39 merged into -tip
=== Plans ===
* Sitting on a beach in Hawaii. Out of town most of next week. Should be
back on Friday
* Need to get the panda framebuffer working in the android kernel and
then publish the android_omap4_defconfig.
=== Issues ===
* May need some help prioritizing upstream push of kconfig changes vs
immediate need to help unify the current linaro board configs.

==== hardware-n-kernel-standard-architecture ====
* Reposted gas adr instruction fixup workaround patch for
comment, with minor modifications as suggested by Nicolas
Pitre.
* Discussions around enabling kprobes for Thumb-2.
* Getting started on NEON/VFP registers in coredumps.
* Omap Thumb-2 patches now queued by Kevin Hilman for 2.6.39.
(git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/khilman/linux-
omap-pm.git for_2.6.39/pm-misc)
* Thumb-2 kernel building is now enabled for OMAP, after
adding -fno-optimize-sibling-calls as a workaround for the
module loading issue encountered last week.
* Received a Genesi Efika smartbook which I will use as a
target when working on imx51 Thumb-2 support when their
2.6.35 merge becomes available: should be a useful target,
since while the linaro imx51 kernel seems to be in a good
condition with regard to Thumb-2 compatibilty, it doesn't
have a full set of drivers or full power management support
yet -- which is where Thumb-2 issues are likely to arise.
==== miscellaneous ====
* Set up an mx51evk board in the linaro validation lab. The
linaro-m release is not mature enough and is not fully
usable, due a lack of network support etc, so upgrading to a
more recent linaro snapshots kernel was needed.
=== Plans ===
* Post an RFC proposal for adding the NEON/VFP state in
coredumps.
* Try and reflash U-Boot on the validation lab u8500 boards.
* Set up the remaining Freescale boards in validation lab.
* Write up the output from the Freescale i.MX BSP review
discussion, and post for comment.
=== Issues ===
* (none)
=== Absences ===
* Mon 2011-03-14 -- Fri 2011-03-16
