Frequently Asked Questions

• Why are OMAP3 devices in the 'omap2' mach folder?

OMAP2 and OMAP3 share a significant number of compatible peripherals and the maintainer chose this to maximize code reuse.

• Will the same kernel git trees and mailing lists continue to be used?

Yes. No merging or splitting of the trees is planned at this point. This is really up to the external public maintainers (Tony and Kevin).

• Why are the OMAP-L1x devices maintained in the linux-davinci tree?

The part numbers are based on the target markets, whereas the kernel tree decisions are based on the legacy of the technology used to create the devices. The OMAP-L1x devices are derived from DaVinci technology and cores.

• Where do I find the status of the drivers in the public git trees?

This wiki has status for pushing drivers to the OMAP and DaVinci public git trees.
