Some brief notes on the call. Feel free to point out what I noted down
wrong.
Action items (AI) marked and approximate assignment in brackets. Thanks to Joyce for hosting the call. As ever, very helpful to have this forum. For future calls, topic requester to list who from Linaro engineering teams might be interested to make sure we keep them in the loop.
Present, ARM: Lorenzo Pieralisi, James Morse Linaro: Joyce Qi Huawei: Shameerali Kolothum, Jonathan Cameron
Next scheduled call in 1 month. Additional calls as necessary to push forwards topics..
RMR progress.
ACPICA / IORT spec issue due to lack of backwards compatibility. AI (LP) to investigate.
Hi Lorenzo,
This is the initial implementation of ACPICA changes w.r.t revision E.c.
https://github.com/shamiali2008/acpica/commit/49ad1b2ec572e3e70557e4 4e2255c497b2639cbe
For now, I am checking the RMR node revision and limit the support to only >= 2.
Hi Lorenzo,
Please let me know if there is any update on this... We need to get the ACPCIA changes in for the kernel support ASAP. If you are Ok with the above patch I can send a pull request for the same.
Hi,
added Sami/Thanu to check on their side too. The patch looks OK to me, even though it has side effects, we won't be able to decode any other RMR based firmware (that is possibly already shipped) with the acpica tools any longer. The Linux kernel should not be affected - other OSes, to be checked.
Lorenzo
Thanks, Shameer
