=== Highlights === * Reworked ashmem patches that I've preped for staging per Arve's feedback and resent the queue for acks. As soon as I get an ack, I'll fold the patches down and send to Greg.
* Sent a small and simple evdev patch from Android to input maintainer for feedback. This is the one patch outside of the ashmem patches I have queued for staging that allows ICS to run on a staging-next kernel.
* Reworked the Android alarm-timer driver so it would be ready for possible inclusion into staging. Its a little more awkward because its very dependent on wakelocks. Sent out for feedback to Android developers and Greg.
* Synced with Greg and others on what remains in common.git that has the potential to go into staging.
* Re-sent Rafael the split out Android wakelock queue.
* Re-adding CONFIG_SCHED_MC options to 3.2 based Linaro+Android kernel.
* Helped Jesse with some git usage.
* Queued two RTC fixes for 3.2 and sent them to Thomas.
* Discussed vdso clock_gettime(CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME,...) implementation issues with some of the facebook folks. This took a tangent into larger discussion about timekeeping items like future support for CLOCK_TAI and other issues like improved leap-second handling.
* Got a mail from Tim Bird on setting up a wider Android upstreaming effort, trying to get a handle on who all is doing what in the community. Sent him updates on what the Linaro team is doing and GregKH's staging tree plans. Plans for a meeting at Connect including non-linaro folks working on these issues is in progress.
* Spent a little bit of time on the fadvise volatile patches, and ran into some potential ugly locking issues that I need to resolve. Considering falling back to the lru approach the ashmem patch uses.
=== Plans === * Hopefully get final ack from Arve on ashmem patches and push those to Greg.
* Follow up on alarmtimer mending patches.
* Look into shmem_mmap alternative to using shmem_set_file in ashmem.
* More work on fadvise volatile implementation.
* Prep for the holidays
* Start actually acting as sub-lead for Kernel Android work (I've been bad the last two weeks) and get a regular meeting planned.
=== Issues ===
* None.
