Minutes
Asia TZ Call
- ILP32
- ARM is ending its 2 year maintenance of this project and is requesting a opinion poll from members on further investment in engineering.
- In staging in kernel but will be deleted without further development
- has been relatively stable over the last year
- OpenSUSE has a complete distro built against ILP32 that some members are using
- Use cases are mainly legacy code that for some reasons isnt possible to port to arm64 (ie assumptions about 32bit points etc).
Socionext: Does not have a use for ILP32
Fujitsu: Has no opinion on this.
USA TZ Call
- ILP32
- Graeme summarised Asia TZ Call
- Marvell requested information on current and expected resource, Andy thinks its 2 full time currently around RCX release cycles with gaps between and expected to need to continue at this level, he will confirm.
- Andy is going to check if there are any development resources needed for new architecture enhancements.
- Graeme pointed out to ever get upstream they are going to need some solid public users.
- Jon asked is there perhaps some depts of ARM or other members relying on this that we currently do not know (Andy to check inside ARM).
- Telco space is the current know user.
- Jon says if this goes ahead it needs to be shared over members as everyone benefits.
- Jon also thinks this is not likely to go upstream.
- Graeme stated that if its not targeted at upstream that is dificult for Linaro as we are un upstream company.
- AOB
- Huawei situation, Jon made clear that RH cannot work on any project that may only benefit Huawei in long run, there must be other users, this affects ILP32 and CCIX
- Jon asked about the effect on POR from current turmoil of Huawei situation (and other factors)
- Graeme replied that with the new process we are almost ready to start planning the San Diego → Spring 2020 Connect cycle with hard planning beginning 6 weeks before Connect but soft planning can start now.
- Jon asked for updated POR slides for current cycle
- Jon pointed out he thinks we should concentrate on tasks with high interest and that have resources.
- Former user (Deleted) to discuss POR slides upate with Elsie
