Dear OP-TEE contributors and maintainers,

We're getting close to releasing OP-TEE 2.6.0.

I am pretty excited about this release, because it supports quite a few new platforms and introduces cool features. A big one, in my opinion, is dynamic shared memory [1] by Volodymyr Babchuk. In addition to being quite helpful technically, this contribution is remarkable because it was developed largely outside Linaro. I certainly hope we get more and more involvement from the community in the future.

I have created release candidate tag 1 (2.6.0-rc1). Can you please help with the following?

1. Check the CHANGELOG, see pull request #1881 [2]
2. Test 2.6.0-rc1 on your favorite platform(s).
Please use the change log pull request to report success (Tested-by:) or issues.
To upgrade to 2.6.0-rc1 you need to checkout this tag in projects optee_os, optee_client and optee_test. Please note our linux kernel branch has been updated [3], it is now based on upstream 4.12. If your platform uses OP-TEE's Secure Data Path feature (CFG_SECURE_DATA_PATH=y), make sure you upgrade because ION has changed and xtest depends on this [4].
