So I'm looking for a few developers (just as a precaution) who are under NDA with Via and want to start helping with integrating this code into upstream.
I'd be happy to take a look. I've been waiting to see which EC the Samsung cn20 uses with Nano+vx800.
If for some reason there is still non-public code in the tree and we find it then there is no harm since only NDA people are looking at it. We just cut it and go on. Just trying to respect Via's willingness to let us release whats essentially a tarball snapshot of Jason's tree.
Not a problem.
Ok Stefan is also working on this. He's going to set up a private repo for us to work against. Keeping code in the private tree should not take too long depending on how deep you want to get in to reworking the things.
They seem to have implemented a whole slew of custom Via ways of doing config space writes. I think those all need to be unified. Not sure if you want that done before or after the public push.
One thing is that we can't release it as a Via board. Currently there is a new Via board called the 6413e which is the engineering board. We have to change that to be OLPC/Gen_1.5A so that it appears this is for the OLPC board and not an official Via release. Via just wants it to be clear that this is a customer release and not a Via release.
The gen 1.5 Atest board will for the most part be the same as the 6413e but its Got EC code tacked on the front. ATest1 is going to have a SPD on board so that its easier for quanta to use COTS bios when testing. Atest2 boards probably won't have spd and will need to choose from a few fixed tables based on some gpios. Depending on how Atest goes we might delay the spd removal until BTest.
I'm waiting for the vx855 netbooks to hit the shelves, preferably with a Renasas EC. Can you tell us which EC the gen 1.5 is going to use? ENE or?
