Last weekly meeting:
https://wiki.linaro.org/OfficeofCTO/2011-11-29

Highlights:

- ARMHF (also tracked via https://launchpad.net/linaro-octo-armhf
Launchpad project)
  + Debian builds are now churning
  + Ubuntu ARMHF now happening - there were some problems unearthed (eg
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python2.7/+bug/898172) but
moving on. Bugs which will appear will be tackled
  + Bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/offspring/+bug/892240 - offspring
does not currently support armhf. This will impede efforts to get armhf
benchmarks running on LAVA. The issue is being now tackled by infra, a
machine will be set to handle putting together *unsupported*
experimental armhf Debian images as a precursor to getting eventually
Ubuntu armhf builds supported by offspring.

- ARM Server: Preparation work is ongoing, for the roadmap and
requirements as well as initial planning for the first steps. A server
LEB will also be discussed from next week onwards.

- A number of patches sent already to deal with reducing ticks as a way
to reduce power consumption. Check patches from
http://patches.linaro.org/team/linaro-octo/

- Finally a short account of memory management:
  + CMA has seen a new version of the patches as result of the
discussion on Kernel Summit
  + there is ongoing work to enable testing of CMA via LAVA
  + getting dma-buf sharing improved based on the review comments, and
also pushing implementation of v4l2 as a user of dmabuf
  + we have a first implementation of dri2video for nouveau driver, and
also coming soon for omap

All questions, comments,  are welcome,
