Hi all, This year we'll hold linux/arch/* micro-conference at Linux Plumbers [1] to discuss, well, the code in linux/arch/*. The purpose of this micro-conference is to bring architecture maintainers and people working on the arch-specific code together and see how can we consolidate and generalize this functionality. Possible topics for the discussion could be: * Reducing code duplication and generalizing the common code in arch/ * Moving syscall processing to C * Memory models (FLAT, DISCONTIGOUS and SPARSE) * Devicetree * Future of highmem * Identifying old machine support: - Still in active use - Only in hobbyist/retro-computing - Completely obsolete and broken Please send your topic proposals to the Linux Plumber's website using the linux/arch/* as the Track you're submitting at: https://linuxplumbersconf.org/event/7/abstracts/ The deadline for the submissions is August, 10, 2020. Mike and Arnd. -- [1] https://www.linuxplumbersconf.org/blog/2020/linux-arch-microconference-accepted-into-2020-linux-plumbers-conference/ -- Sincerely yours, Mike.
