Hi Alexander,
We're planning a Connect session on just this topic. :)
Telepathy! :) very good.
Will we go with concrete options to discuss into that session? What's the current way of thinking?
I think we'll have concrete ideas going in. I see two challenges on this topic:
1) the lava plumbing - this is probably not too hard 2) the "build front-ends" - ie android-build/daily-prebuilts (and new ones to come)
Item 2 may take up the most time and coordination. These front-ends will need updates to their job-submission logic as well as how they render their UI's.

Hi,
We currently do a few builds in Linaro that can boot on a whole set of device_types.
Example: vexpress android can be build only once, but run in LAVA on vexpress-a9, -15, -TC2 and fastmodel XX,YY,ZZ, etc.
Unfortunately, we don't really support that use case very well in our CI so we end up submitting the artifact of a build to only one device_type automatically.
One approach to that problem would be to grow a feature in the scheduler to accept jobs that have a list of device_types in the job description.
Thoughts? Other ideas?
