Yes, this just does Kconfig and dts enablement. There are separate patch sets that we will publish soon for network, ahci, gicv3/gicv3-its, pci, smmu, kvm. All of them base on this first series. From the feedback it looks like we will resend an updated version. For running the kernel with Fedora you need at least our msi based pci host controller (requires gicv3-its) with ahci and network pci device drivers on top. Thus, the dts file will not change too much for this. So I am not sure how you want to integrate all this. Either early patches as soon as they are available or waiting with an integratione until a complete patch set for a bootable system is in place. > > I will also be at Flock in Prague next week.

However, I am at Cavium in the kernel team and will drive upstreaming patches and support to integrate them into Fedora. So if there is anything I can help with, let me know. It will be good to see you in Prague. Thanks and looking forward seeing you, -Robert _______________________________________________ arm mailing list arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm
