Hi Philippe, 

This is a priority question. We are more focused on Tizen wear. 
If we go ahead with Tizen 3.0 common and 3.14 Kernel, we can get the base work 
required for bringing up Tizen wear. 
But there seems to be no Tizen wear profile on Tizen 3.0 till now. 
Any time lines for it? By when we can see Tizen wearable profile on Tizen 3.0. 


Regards, 
Murthy NSSR.

Hi Philippe, 

We are using 3.10.5 Kernel which we have already used to bring up Android on 
our platform. 
We have disabled the Android specific configurations and rebuilt it with 
TIzen_defconfig. We'll check the feasibility of using 3.14 kernel with SMACK 
enabled. We have DRM enabled but still need to integrate the PowerVR driver to 
it. 

Our goal as of today is bring up Tizen 2.2 Mobile. We see that in repos, it is 
using 3.0 kernel. 
We surely plan to contribute to the community. But it can take sometime as we 
still have to bring up our platform. 
I cannot say on whether we maintain our platform specific patches ourselves or 
make them available through mainstream. That's management decision still 
pending. 

On your suggestion, I have create a request on JIRA here: 
https://bugs.tizen.org/jira/browse/TC-1690. 

I have tried to some local Tizen builds with Tizen 2.2 for armv7l and I am 
stuck with errors. I have posted that in a different thread: 
https://lists.tizen.org/pipermail/dev/2014-October/004390.html. 
Please suggest on that as well.

Murthy NSSR

neat ! 

This is something I care because I am trying to make Tizen:Common 
supporting many different hardware 
to make sure the system is not arch oriented and can be a solid base 
for generic development... 

Let me reference your project on this page I am drafting to ease cross 
profile kernel packaging

Which version is it ? do you plan to share the source as community contrib ? 
what about the targeted machine 

Let me remind Tizen:Common requirements to be supported : 

* need to have SMACK enabled 
* need to be based on linux lts 3.14.+ (next ltsi?) 
* need hw graphics (drm , egl...)

Yea I think this is the 1st thing to achieve, 
do you indent to use obs/gbs or yocto ? 
1st one is current tizen build system .

I dont see any easier way that bootstraping your own OBS server (using qemu) 
or deploy it to a MIPS farm

I dont know any yet . but I know who can help you , 

So I invite you to report a "wish" tizen tracker and try to attract 
their attention. 

Good luck 


ps: let's move the conversation to dev list ...
