== Completed Work Items ==.
- Had to familiarize myself with Android internals and build process, i.e. set up build environment, actually build a working Android image from scratch (through quite a bit of hardships, heh). But now I'm actually able to customize Android from the kernel down to the userland. :-) Surely I played a bit with all this new stuff.
That might a good question whether I should actually mess with the userland, but I think that familiarizing w/ Android internals is a good thing even for a Linux kernel guy, especially as I'm going to work on Android-related projects.
And this is all was to start preparing changes for ActivityManager (i.e. add support for memory notifications).
- Started looking into interactive cpufreq governor. I forward-ported it onto latest kernels, and again played a bit with it. The bad news is that the governor depends on idle notifiers (notifiers, again :-) And the notifiers are got a somewhat cool welcome by some ARM folks. ( http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/6/27/391 )
So, might be a good idea to reiterate the notifiers and cpufreq stuff soon. But need to spend a bit more time on the code, so that I would feel confident what exactly I'm going to defend.
