Bruce,
That's very good. I will bring linux-yocto-3.8 kernel to meta-dl.
(https://github.com/insop/meta-dl/tree/linux-yocto-3.8)
I have another suggestion to offer here, one I've been wanting to
do for a bit.
I've added Darren Hart to the thread, since I'd like to hear from
him on this as well.
I have a use for the scheduling tools and benchmark cases for some
virtualization usecases (meta-virtualization on git.yoctoproject.org).
We already have "recipes-rt" in oe-core, and the preempt-rt kernel
available from linux-yocto, and as we've been discussing I've added
support for EDF/sched_dealine in linux-yocto-3.8.
I'm not a fan of having to many layers, but rather than putting these
efforts in github layers, hiding them in meta-virtualiation and they
aren't yet "core" enough to go in oe-core .. I'd rather see them
conslidated in a "meta-realtime" (or whatever name we decide on)
layer on git.yoctoproject.org.
I'm fine with that. We should probably consider adding a realtime distro
definition as well at some point soon.
Agreed.
There are also ideas around interrupt management, AMP, and alternative
system partitioning that I'd like to drive into such a layer.
A quick scan of the layer index, doesn't show anything that matches
this description. So I'm suggesting that we create a new layer
to consolidate these approaches, and a layer that can be consumed by
some of the other layers that are currently in progress.
Comments ? In particular, point out a layer that already does this that
I've missed.
No objection. Something outside of core would be better do to the
experimental nature of so much of this stuff.
Also agreed. I'll move on getting some parts of this enabled on the
yocto resources.
Cheers,
Bruce
