 == Highlights ==
* MX53 NAND driver support, done, patches send out to mtd ML, driver
patch accepted by Artem to l2-mtd-2.6.git
* MX53 EVK NAND support, done, Â patches send out linux-arm ML, this
patch-set is blocked by DT support. I will
re-submit it with DT support after current board level DT convert finished.
* Post arch/arm/mach-mx5/mm: clean and consolidate patchset to linux-arm ML.
* watch the discussion for the DEBUG_LL and uart setting for
uncompress on linux-arm ML.
* review and test i.mx5 u-boot patches of ML:u-boot@lists.denx.de
== Plan ==
 * 11.11 task
 * uboot upstream
 * kernel upstream

=== Highlights ===
* This week (only 3 days), finishing up the last patches on MMC and USB BPs.
* The USB mass storage patch about having variable number of
pipeline buffers is queued for 3.2.
[PATCH v5] usb: gadget: storage: make FSG_NUM_BUFFERS variable size
* Fault injection for MMC is queued for 3.2
[PATCH v9 0/3] mmc: make fault injection available for MMC IO
* Started to work on
https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/linux-linaro/+spec/vfs-larger-than-4k…
first step is to study the current implementation and
infrastructure in block layer and vfs
=== Completed work items ===
The following two BPs are done, some patches are merged for 3.1 and
the rest will be in 3.2.
* https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/linux-linaro/+spec/usb-gadget-mass-st…
* https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/linux-linaro/+spec/mmc-async-request
=== Plans ===
Prio 1. Start on large block size support
Prio 2. kexec for Snowball
== Linus Walleij linusw ==
=== Highlights ===
* Pushed out v4 of the pinctrl/pinmux subsystem:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=131374768302199&w=2
Now iterating review comments for v5, one big outstanding
item to fix before Steven Warren from nvidia is happy so
focus is on that right now.
* Put the gpio.h cleanup patches from Linaro connect into
Russell's patch tracker after OK from Grant, awaiting
Russell's feedback.
* Consolidated some PrimeCell magic, as I was pretty tired
of seeing this pattern repeating itself.
http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=131365435714431&w=2
* Talked to ARM about obtaining some more core modules for
the ARM Integrator - seems to be on its way!
=== Plans ===
* v5 iteration of the pinctrl + pinmux subsystem
* Test the PL08x patches on the Ericsson Research
PB11MPCore and submit platform data for using
pl08x DMA on that platform.
* Drive generalization of U300 and Nomadik GPIO
* Get into struct clk generalization and movement of clk
drivers into drivers/clk - handover from Jeremy Kerr.
We will do this in Cambridge or something like that.
* Watch the DBx500 PRCMU drivers update
=== Issues ===
* Shanghaiied for some internal conflict resolution
at ST-Ericsson and weekend review of internal patches.
Not too much though. Also a lot of internal mail
and oral advisory going on.
Thanks,
Linus Walleij
=== Highlights ===
* Attended LinuxCon:
- Good forward movement on long term support kernel. GregKH presented his
proposal for the community supported LTS and the LF Consumer Electronics
Working Group presented their plans to build an industry driven LTS on top
of that. I will be in contact with the CEWG to understand how we can stay
in the loop. Follow up meeting is planned for ELC-E in Prague. Met
with GregKH
along with David R. and Grant L. to talk about getting ARM bits
into the loop for
-stable and -longterm.
- Good mention of Linaro on several occasions, including by Linus.
=== Plans for This Week ===
* Catch up email/wiki updates/etc after 3 weeks of travel & time off
* Complete reviews for IBM folks
* Start preparing ARM queue for next 3.0.x stable release. First pass
will be very
limited number of patches to keep my sanity.
* 1:1s
* Follow up with Nicolas P. on zImage consolidation task list
=== Upcoming Travel/Time Off ===
* Linux Plumber's Conf Sept 7-9
* PTO Sept. 12th/13th, 26th/27th
* Tentative travel to ELC-E/LinuxCon-E Oct 26-28
* Linaro Connect Oct 31st - Nov 4
=== Highlights ===
* Effort merging Android patches (specifically timer related) was noted
during the Linux Con chat between Linus and Greg.
* Merged 11.08 Linaro kernel into Linaro+Android tree
* Tested, tagged, and released linux-linaro-3.0-2011.08-0-android-0 &
linux-linaro-3.0-2011.08-0-android-1 kernels.
* Worked on internal presentation
* Worked on Kconfig fragment talk for LPC
* Did beagle xm testing for Android 11.08 release. Ran into some issues
with 0xbench not completing.
* Helped diagnose some community RTC issues
=== Plans ===
* Continue to work on LPC talk for the majority of next week.
=== Issues ===
* Still need to sort out internal gerrit process for linaro+android
kernel (I still can't push to gerrit without requiring each change to be
reviewed by two people, which won't work).
== Manjunath GK <manjugk> ==
=== Highlights ===
* Alignment for DT-HWMOD hook at linaro-connect
- Temparory solution to have DT-HWMOD hook is aligned and changes
are tested successfully at linaro-connect
* DT adaptation for OMAP i2c driver
- With DT-HWMOD hook, i2c-omap driver is converted to use DT
* RFC patches posted to mailing lists with DT-HWMOD changes
- Discussion is in progress in the mailing lists
=== Plans ===
* Followup review comments in the mailing lists and align on further
changes/proposals.
* Convert remaining i2c controller and it's child devices to dt model
* Add dt support for panda board

 == Jason Liu <jasnliu> ==
 == Highlights ==
* MX53 NAND driver support, done, patches send out to mtd ML
* MX53 EVK NAND support, done, patches send out linux-arm ML, but it
more likely be postponed due to DT support for i.MX
* Linaro i.mx u-boot bug analysis and fix.
== Plan ==
* 11.11 task
* uboot upstream
* kernel upstream

Jason Liu
== Thomas Abraham <thomas-ab> Â ==
=== Highlights ===
* Submitted patches to move uart irq handling from platform code to
uart driver for Samsung platforms. This was required to simplify
adding device tree support to uart driver.
* Submitted another proposal for adding device tree support for Exynos
GPIO and PinMux modules. (Most of the Exynos4 drivers perform gpio and
pinmux setup in the probe function by calling a platform specific
callback function listed in the platform data of the driver. So until
the dt support for gpio and pinctrl are finalized, I will continue
adding dt support to drivers utilizing the auxdata feature to populate
the platform data with callback for gpio and pinmux setup).
* Started looking into dt support for dma driver.
=== Plans ===
* Submit dt support patches for dma driver.
=== Misc ===
* Will be on leave on 17th, 18th and 19th August.
=== Device Tree ===
* Repost "alias" support patch to get both flat-tree and prom-tree
supported, so that it will not break SPARC architecture.
* Had seen another two custom pinmux bindings for Tegra and Exynos,
and the common register-value pair binding will probably make less
sense, so will keep purchasing iomuxc binding I have proposed.
* Per request from Freescale Landing team, published a imx51/53 DT
support tree on git.linaro.org, so that they can starting playing
more DT support on drivers.
=== Misc ===
* Posted a patch series to clean up imx (mxc & mxs) mach/gpio.h to
empty headers, and wait for a global removal from asm/gpio.h.
This is one step to single-image.
* Ran a i.mx53 quick start demo on APM (ARM Parter Meeting?)
* Flight back from UK
