Hi everyone,
I am Emilio L�pez, a Computer Science student from Argentina. I was
looking at all the different GSoC project proposals available today and
I found an interesting one on the wiki titled "Upstreaming
Beagleboard.org Kernel Patches"[1]
I have some experience working with the Linux kernel; I've written a
clock driver[2] for sunxi boards (Allwinner A10, A13 SoCs) as well as
contributed some misc. DT patches[3], all of which should be landing on
mainline as soon as the 3.10 cycle starts.
I had a quick look at the patches on beagleboard's github[4]; there's a
lot of patches there, but most of the ones I looked at seemed to be in
good shape to be mainlined as-is or with little rework after the
respective maintainers comment on them.
Please let me know what should I do to apply to work on this as part of
GSoC. I will be idling on both #beagle and #beagle-gsoc if you want to
talk with me personally
Cheers,
Emilio
