DaVinci tree has now been updated to 2.6.24, but there are several
things not yet working in this tree (see below.)
The pre-merge tree is tagged as 'pre-2.6.24-merge', if you want to
stay with a pre-2.6.24 tree, you can checkout your own development
branch at this tag: 'git checkout -b my-dev-branch pre-2.6.24-merge'.
This has had minimal testing using attached .config.
Known problems (but I'm sure there are others)
Short update:
- i2c
- I added the zero-byte hack (as done in OMAP driver), but still
doesn't seem to work
- EMAC driver cannot get MAC using i2c
- workaround: pass eth=<MAC addr> on kerne cmd line
- no audio (since aic33 is via i2c)
- needs to be disabled in .config
Still open.
- IDE
- seems to hang
- there is a new version of this driver which (I believe) has been
submitted to linux-ide. This should be merged soon.
Still open.
- NAND
- board-evm code doesn't compile due to missing nand_platform_data
Fixed with:
http://linux.omap.com/pipermail/davinci-linux-open-source/2008-February/005235.html
- Video
- V4L2 changes will require a rework of the video drivers
Still open.
- Audio
- crashes in i2c accesses if enabled
- only has untested/deprecated OSS driver
Still open.
- Network / NFS
- does not fully boot my NFS root filesystem. It stops part way
through and thinks the NFS server went away.
- There were some NAPI related compile fixes after 2.6.24 (Thanks Dirk)
that may require investigation/debug.
Fixed with:

- MMC:
Troy is looking into this.
- Power management:
Update available

# CONFIG_FPE_NWFPE is not set

Short note: Depending on your toolchain you should enable NWFPE if
switching from kernel to user space fails.
