Hi all, One of the big issues we've been faced with at Linaro is around GPU and multimedia device integration, in particular the memory management requirements for supporting them on ARM. This next cycle, we'll be focusing on driving consensus around a unified memory management solution for embedded systems that support multiple architectures and SoCs. This is listed as part of our working set of requirements for the next six-month cycle (in spite of the URL, this is not being treated as a graphics-specific topic - we also have participation from multimedia and kernel working group folks): https://wiki.linaro.org/Cycles/1111/TechnicalTopics/Graphics I am working on getting the key technical decision makers to provide input and participate in the requirements collection and design for a unified solution. We had an initial birds-of-a-feather discussion at the Embedded Linux Conference in San Francisco this past week to kick off the effort in preparation for the first embedded-memory-management mini-sprint in Budapest week of May 9th at Linaro@UDS. One of the outcomes of the BoF was the need for a mailing list to coordinate ideas, planning, etc. The subscription management for the list is located at http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-mm-sig. The mini-summit in Budapest will have live audio and an IRC channel for those that want to participate (details to go out on the list). We expect to have additional summits over the course of the cycle, with the next one likely at Linux Plumbers in September (though, I would like to try for one more before then). cheers, Jesse _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
