Hi all,
The good news is that largely everything is as I announced previously. The tracks have been cleaned up a bit, so the memory management mini-summit is now driven out of the Linaro Graphics track, but the room (Ond) and schedule (M-W afternoons) is still the same. All the info you need on the schedule is here:
http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-o/
The room is supposed to have a projector, be mic'd for live audio and have an IRC channel. Those participating remotely will be interested in the details around the audio and IRC access here:
http://uds.ubuntu.com/participate/remote/
A link for the mini-summit event found here:
https://wiki.linaro.org/Events
goes to the (work in progress) agenda and there is a registration link as well. Please let me know if I've missed any components that need representation, if there are some on there that you feel don't need it, or if there are additional items you'd like to see on the agenda. I have 2 requests of the people that will participate in person:
1) Please "register" to indicate you'll be there in person (or even if you plan on participating remotely). There are a few reasons for this, but the critical one is to make sure we have a big enough room. 2) Sign-up to represent a component, at least in the overview sessions. This is important for sane discussion afterwards.
If you don't or can't get write access to the Linaro wiki, just send me email directly and I'll do it by proxy. Also, if you have material that you will "show" people (slides, etc.), please send it to the list ahead of time for the benefit of those participating remotely. Finally, the "project page" for this effort is here on the Linaro wiki:
https://wiki.linaro.org/OfficeofCTO/MemoryManagement
Thanks again to everyone for their contributions.
cheers, Jesse

The Media Controller doesn't belong in this discussion. It has nothing to do with buffer handling. The same is true AFAICT for KMS. It is no doubt useful to have a discussion about V4L/KMS/MC, but that's a separate topic.

I'll prepare a short V4L presentation, focussing on the buffer handling API and buffer handling internals.

I think separate but a bit related topic, so it would be good to cover.. ie. if the conclusion is that something new is needed to replace GEM (rather than enhancements to GEM), we should see how this fits in to DRM. (Although the main connection I could see at the moment, I think you'd need to be able to represent an allocated buffer as a __u32 handle so you have an association between a drm_framebuffer object and the actual buffer memory.)
if less people are interested (or at least less that are joining remotely) we could perhaps cover these in one of the morning timeslots

DRM is obviously relevant, but KMS isn't as far as I know.

We could have a morning session on the relationships between DRM/KMS/FB/V4L/MC. It is not always obvious what API/subsystem should control what (and that's even more complex for SoCs that can dynamically switch from a framebuffer to a v4l node and back depending on the use case).
At the very least some mutual education would be useful. But this has nothing to do with the memory handling topics and it would only distract from that if we mixed those topics.

Hans

I'm interesting in that. Jesse Barnes is floating an rfc patch for overlay support in KMS which seems to have the most applications for embedded SoCs (besides terribly old desktop hw). If many of the relevant people are there, that would be a great opportunity to discuss the graphics output handling in embedded platforms (and how to get there). -Daniel
Done. I've created this blueprint:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/linaro-graphics-wg/+spec/linaro-graphics-o-...
for the discussion. I can't say when it will be scheduled, but only that it will not be scheduled during the mini-summit. I'll put in a request for it to occur one of the mornings before the mini-summit.
Also, with respect to registration for the mini-summit, if you've registered, I can put in a request that none of the other sessions you've registered for as required participant will be scheduled during the mini-summit as well.
cheers, Jesse

Not on Monday, though. We start off the mini-summit with component overviews, so it's probably wise to postpone this topic to Tuesday or Wednesday morning after we've had the overviews. Part of the problem is after all a lack of insight in each others subsystems.

I've moved it to Wednesday morning, and though scheduling is not final, i've got some editorial privileges.
