I noticed all the fine AndyDoan/Ricardo fixes that make panda wonderful are missing. My question now is should that stuff go back in or should we plan on a LT/BSP kernel for full functionality. I presume if those patches were headed upstream they would be headed upstream:). If not they they should not be in linux-linaro.
This is the strategy of this game. If it isn't going upstream you lose.
In practice this means that AndyDoan/Ricardo will have to do their work again on top of this tree, and then I might merge it.
Yup, that's the plan.
I believe Rob Clark is targeting the DRM changes for OMAP for 3.1, so I'll check with him and rebase the patches to be in a better shape for upstream.
Once done will send the pull request to Nicolas.
I wish we could coordinate this a bit better somehow.
I was wandering around rebasing the DSS stuff I have and trying to get something other than 640 x 480 coming on mainline 2.6.39 the last couple of days; I also saw these new DSS build failures in npitre .39 build.
I can see Ricardo is better plugged into the source of these DSS patches than I am and has more experience working on them. But we have some related endeavours ongoing via Jassi's work uplevelling video decode stuff and trying to get workable SGX / PVR integrated.
Is he working in another specific branch/tree?
Does it not make sense to put these patches into LT tree first where it can play alongside whatever other patches are flying around?
Sure, it'll probably be even easier to work with for this moment. Hopefully I'll have some time to work on this in the new few days.
Anyway linus HEAD on Panda is otherwise quite nice now, the bluetooth stuff is in there already, WLAN is working well and so on. DSS stuff is still a WIP though.
Awesome, good to see these improvements there. Hopefully we'll get a more stable wlan and bt this time.
Cheers,
