=== Highlights ===
* Brought pending ux500 GPIO and pinctrl fixes forward. I have
a patch set with all internal changes from ST-Ericsson that
will be mailed off today. This is a prerequisite for the ux500
pinctrl work.
* Sent pull request for ux500 fixes for the -rc series to ARM SoC,
Olof @lixom has pulled it in.
* Reviewed a patch-storm from Lee Jones. Keeps me on the
move that guy :-)
* Finalized NO_IRQ removal issues and irq_domain migration for
the FPGA IRQ controller in the ARM Integrator and Versatile.
Patch is in Russell's patch tracker.
* Wrote four patches to the PL190 VIC due to bugs found during
the FPGA IRQ conversion. One makes the VIC respect the mask
of valid interrupt sources, one uses the map iterator, one bumps
the U300 IRQ list and one bumps the Nomadik IRQ list, both to
avoid using IRQ 0 which is now "NO_IRQ".
* Discussing power domain issues. Now on the I2C controller in
ux500. It looks like the maintainers want a centralized approach
to power domains, not distributed.
* Proposed patches to delete support for the obsolete DB5500
ASIC. Need to be rebased to a patch from MFD before it can
be pulled into ARM SoC.
* Booked hotel for Linaro Connect 2012.2
=== Plans ===
* Send pinctrl fixes to Torvalds.
* Review incoming pinctrl patches.
* Convert ux500 (gpio-nomadik) to pinctrl
for the kernel 3.5 timeframe.
* Test the PL08x patches on the Ericsson Research
PB11MPCore and submit platform data for using
pl08x DMA on that platform.
* Look into other Ux500 stuff in need of mainlining...
like
- Ux500 clocks
- the HWMON stuff.
* Presentation for a dept. here about the platform perimeter
from the ESC two weeks ago. Seems useful for getting some
news in v3.4+. Today actually!
=== Issues ===
* Too much internal fuzz and advisory for different internal
projects have been a bit stressful, so I dropped off IRC for
that reason. The people visiting me in person are distracting
enough as it is. I will currently only use IRC when working from
home. This is one of the few environmental actions I can take
to get some focus from time to time.
Thanks,
Linus Walleij
== Thomas Abraham <thomas-ab> ==
=== Highlights ===
* Submitted initial device tree support patches for Exynos5 Rev1.0.
* Prepared initial device tree support for SPI controller driver. This will
be submitted after additional testing.
=== Plans ===
* Complete device tree support for SPI controller driver.
* Rework combiner and wakeup interrupt controller device tree patches.
* Start with device tree support for Samsung pin-ctrl driver.
=== Highlight ===
* Reviewed common clock bindings from Rob Herring, and raised concern
on multiple clock outputs support and the question on how the entire
clock tree will be represented in the combination of clock driver
and device tree.
* Converted mach-mxs clock to common clk, and waiting for a stable
branch with all recent fixup/cleanup integrated to post the patches.
* Discovered a couple of bugs existing in common clk and previous imx6
porting during mach-mxs porting and testing. Sent fixing to Mike and
Sascha respectively for them to integrate.
* Reviewed the v6 of pwm framework series and tested it with mxs pwm
backlight drivers.
* Fixed the gpmi-nand breakage caused by dma cookie series in the way
that Russell suggested, enabling dma channel in issue_pending call.
* Reviewed DA9052 mfd and regulator device tree support from Paul Liu.
* Reviewed a couple of imx6q dts patches from Fabio, including the
initial SabreSD dts file.

=== Highlights ===
* Resolved the volatile persistence issue, and finally took a crack at
resolving the calling vmtruncate_range from a shrinker lockdep problem.
Sent out another revision (v7) of the volatile range code to lkml.
* Notified Andrey about my rebased 3.4-rc1 androidization patch set, and
immediately afterwards the Google developers released their own. Did
some basic testing and mirrored it out for 12.04. Tixy pointed out a
missing patch and I re-added it.
* Pinged Rafael and Arve about the reworked userland wakelocks code.
Ends up the userland wakelocks api is not reworked, Arve's just removed
the dependencies on the wakelock core, and that there are still
outstanding issues blocking upstream w/ the existing implementation.
Rafael's userland wakelock implementation is likely the future, but
needs further work/testing.
* Ran Android upstreaming subteam call
=== Plans ===
* Punted on a few community issues this week, so I'll likely need to
revisit them.
* Read up on sysrq-t and why its holding irqs off for very long periods
of time.
* See what feedback I get from volatile range, and if its minimal, drop
the RFC and submit it for inclusion.
=== Issues ===
* NA.
=== Pinctrl ===
* sent one pinctrl core patch to improve error checking
* sent out pinctrl-imx core driver patch with mux and config support for
review
* sent out pinctrl-imx6q driver patch for review
=== Plan ===
* add gpio support for pinctrl-imx core
* start to convert imx drivers to use pinctrl subsystem
== Linus Walleij linusw ==
=== Highlights ===
* I got Linux v3.4-rc2 to boot on Snowball and HREF500 after submitting
a bunch of patches fixing some boot problems. Now I have a testbed for
doing pinctrl on ux500.
* Applied a bunch of pinctrl patches, full migration of Tegra to pinctrl
and bug fixes from Dong Aisheng.
* Finalized U9540 basic support patch on top the -rc2 tag for v3.5.
* Looked at some NO_IRQ removal issues and irq_domain migration for
the FPGA IRQ controller in the ARM Integrator and Versatile. Cooking
a patch after some review from Russell.
* Discussing power domain issues.
* Booked and confirmed tickets to Connect 2.12 in Hong Kong.

== Omar Ramirez <omarrmz> ==
=== Highlights ===
* Working on device tree for mailbox:
Find a kernel that works with DT for pandaboard (OMAP4):
- k3.4-rc1 doesn't recognize DT blob, k3.3 DT panics at boot.
- DT has to be appended to zImage.
Find a DT uboot:
- secretlab.ca uboot doesn't have usb support for panda, having
problems with fatload and mmc.
- linaro uboot has problems recognizing dt blob in memory (bootm
${kern} - ${dtb}; doesn't work properly).
* Sent "round 2" patches for the agitator, now merged.
=== Planned ===
* debugfs interface for big.LITTLE to know which cluster is being used.
* Add independent thread switching to the agitator.
