hi Nico & all,
Per Samsung has released their big.LITTLE phone, and the IKS code has been release in its kernel's source code; so may be now it's good time for us to know status of IKS from Linaro side:
1. What's the plan for Lianro to release iks related patches?
Due now mcpm related patches are pending for mainline's merge, unfortunately iks is based on the mcpm patches; so when will u send iks patches to open source's mailing list?
On the other hand, do u have plan to merge iks related patches firstly to Lianro ARM landing team's branch? if so, then it will not depend on mainline and can be much more efficient.
2. Looked into Samsung's code, there have the cluster switching which is based on iks (named ikcs); so now in your code base, do u have implemented related functionality?
