In public, No - Note: even though the git repo is public, and internally we attempt to follow the same upstream rules, at the end, it is still a vendor kernel :(. But, rest assure that internally, we know precisely where we are and we are tracking towards completion. While linux-omap is a public list, it might be better to answer vendor kernel questions in the context of e2e.ti.com (The TI forums - there are folks closely monitoring those and actively engaging to help customers out and will be better positioned to answer your specific queries). Do feel free to reach out to me on irc freenode.net #linux-omap etc if you'd need anything specific to help with. We usually prefer linux-omap mailing list to stick with upstream discussions, one off vendor kernel discussions do take place from time to time, however, most of our TI support folks are better equipped to answer questions on TI forums. The above "officialdom statement" said, we do actively encourage our community (which we include ourselves and TI customers as well) to participate in making upstream kernel complete and point out anything we may have overlooked (yep, we are human) so that overall what vendor kernel does or does'nt do should be inconsequential in the longer term for the community and products derived from community. -- Regards, Nishanth Menon Key (0xDDB5849D1736249D) / Fingerprint: F8A2 8693 54EB 8232 17A3 1A34 DDB5 849D 1736 249D
