Excellent!

Mark

• Worked with tglx to try to sort out remaining issues on reducing

timekeeping lock hold time

• Got my CLOCK_TAI patches properly tested and ready for 3.10
• Got a bunch of community timekeeping changes queued for 3.10
• Re-reported git server errors folks in the community were seeing w/ our

trees.

• Sent out weekly email Android Upstreaming status report (canned hangout,

since we all were in HK).

• Reviewed Mathieu's sysrq timeout patch.
• Pointed Axel at ioctl work being done in trinity, and he pointed out

that others are extending it for Android testing.

• Preped and setup interviews with two Linaro candidates.
• Looked over DmitryP's netfilter patch queue, and sent back some minor

comments.

• Got the linaro.android branch updated to 3.9, using the

experimental/android-3.9 branch on AOSP. Thanks to Tixy for helping with testing!

• Took a look at the ion driver to see what shape it was in for

upstreaming. It has some arm-specific assumptions, so it may need some rework.

• Synced with Greg and AndrzejP on the removal of CCG from staging (since

its basically abandoned for the configfs gadget). Benoit from Google chimed in as well here.

• Did an initial review of Serban's binder patches

=== Plans ===

• Sort out Linaro Connect expense reporting
• Another Linaro candidate interview.
• Review new volatile range patches from Minchan
• Try to finish up timekeeping lock hold time reductions
• Send pull request to tglx for my 3.10 queue
• Work on earlysuspend blog post
• Maybe send out pstore updates from Google?

=== Issues ===

• Jet lag returning from Linaro Connect was pretty bad. Think I'm finally

over it though.
