Hi all,

I would like to request the community to create a new branch for
Baytrail BSP in linux-yocto-3.8.

Baytrail BSP will run on both 32bit and also 64bit configurations.

We plan to maintain only 1 branch for both 32 bit and 64 bit because the
recipes

are the same.

The branch name will be standard/common-pc-64/baytrail

Branch HEAD on commit 19f949f52599ba7c3f67a5897ac6be14bfcb1200 (Tag v3.8)

After the community are done with branch creation, I will start upstream
the patches to the branch.

I can create the branch at any time, so consider it created. Are you
looking for the branch creation to enable your local testing, or something
else ?


Bruce, do not create this branch. Baytrail will be fully supported
upstream, we cannot have a branch called "baytrail" containing the
equivalent of a vendor tree". These branches, if they exist at all,
should be for specific boards that for some very special cases need
patches which are not acceptable upstream. This should be approaching
zero for Intel hardware.

We will work with Rebecca to come up with an acceptable solution.

Ack'd.

Bruce

The reason I ask, is that if you have patches, you can test and send
the series before the branch creation, so there's no need to wait
for it to appear in the tree before sending changes.

The summary and strategy is useful, so that is appreciated and the
right thing to do versus just a large series of changes without any
prior notice.

Cheers,

Bruce


Please do give me some comments if there are any better ways of doing this.

Thanks!

Best Regards

Rebecca
