I had a good discussion with the validation team and they are going to try to have some automated defconfig building working by the end of the week. What they need from us is :
- What defconfigs do we want them to build? Either defconfigs that are in the kernel tree or that are out of tree. My thought is one per board that we care about, but I'm not sure if all the boards have upstream defconfigs.
If we care about the boards enough, they should really have defconfigs upstream. We can skip the ones that don't for now, and we can also put the defconfig files into the arm-soc tree.
- What trees to test? I'm thinking linus HEAD and also the arm-soc tree's -next branch.
Yes, at least these two. We could also consider the actual linux-next tree, as well as the linaro kernel tree. The linux-next tree would likely break more often, but that would give us very valuable feedback.
