+08:56 < pinchartl> I see everyone gathering here. good morning/afternoon
+08:56 < morimoto> Hi
+08:57 < jmondi> Good morning
+08:57 < uli___> hi
+08:58 < pinchartl> Kieran won't be able to attend
+08:58 < pinchartl> and I assume Niklas is on his way
+08:59 < pinchartl> so let's wait just a few minutes
+08:59 < pinchartl> and who knows, Magnus could even show up :-)
+09:00 < neg> morning
+09:00 < pinchartl> hi Niklas
+09:00 < neg> hello
+09:01 < pinchartl> hi Magnus !
+09:01 < pinchartl> wow, it will be a busy meeting today :-)
+09:02 < pinchartl> let's get started
+09:02 < pinchartl> agenda for today
+09:02 < dammsan> hi pinchartl
+09:02 < pinchartl> - Tasks status update
+09:02 < pinchartl> - Graphics Performance issue reported by the BSP team
+09:02 < pinchartl> - Multimedia plan
+09:02 < pinchartl> - Additional tasks for Q2
+09:02 < pinchartl> - Meeting around LinuxCon Japan
+09:03 < pinchartl> anything else ?
+09:03 < morimoto> - sightseeing plan on LinuxCon Japan (joke) :P
+09:04 < pinchartl> that's also for core and I/O :-)
+09:04 < pinchartl> Topic 1. Status check for the multimedia tasks
+09:04 < pinchartl> jmondi: you're first in alphabetical order I'm afraid. would you like to do the honours ?
+09:05 < jmondi> of course
+09:05 < jmondi> my pleasure
+09:05 < jmondi> also because it will be quite fast
+09:06 < jmondi> A) STarted working again on DMABUF test application. Took ~week to port it to Gen3, basically because I gave a loooot of things for granted, but they were 
+                board specific
+09:06 < jmondi> dammsan: I still would like to have the remote ALT board accessible, to make sure it works on Gen2 as well
+09:07 < jmondi> B) Implement the event loop interface and other review issues
+09:07 < jmondi> C) = D) = NULL
+09:07 < dammsan> jmondi: it is on my TODO list, sorry to keep you waiting
+09:07 < jmondi> dammsan: it should be enough to restart that VM... or restart ssh server there
+09:08 < jmondi> --eot--
+09:08  * morimoto Renesas chat now
+09:08 < pinchartl> jmondi: thank you
+09:09 < pinchartl> next, Kieran
+09:09 < pinchartl> who is not here
+
+09:09  * morimoto back from Renesas chat
+09:09 < pinchartl> he has submitted his status update by e-mail
+09:10 < pinchartl> Since last meeting:
+09:10 < dammsan> jmondi: the VM is dead, first time that happened. i have a pile of high priority stuff on my TODO before i will attend
+09:10 < pinchartl> - FOSDEM
+09:10 < pinchartl> - Holiday
+09:10 < dammsan> jmondi: please use gen3 for now
+09:10 < pinchartl> - VSP-DU race fix (display flicker issue)
+09:11 < pinchartl>    - Patches developed, and tested quite intensively.
+09:11 < pinchartl>    - Fairly high confidence that they should be robust
+09:11 < pinchartl>      - (Renesas to test under Wayland environment)
+09:11 < pinchartl> For the next two weeks:
+09:11 < pinchartl>  - Partition algorithm restrictions analysis (Now have updated datasheet)
+09:11 < pinchartl>  - Rebase, and follow up on outstanding reviewed patches
+09:11 < pinchartl> Blockers:
+09:11 < pinchartl>  - No budget until beginning of April
+09:11 < pinchartl> so the "for the next two weeks" section will likely need to be postponed
+09:12 < jmondi> dammsan: sure!
+09:13 < pinchartl> I will take care of submitting pull requests for the patches that are ready for upstream
+09:14 < pinchartl> next, me
+09:14 < pinchartl> since Portland
+09:14 < pinchartl> I've rebased the HDMI output patches
+09:14 < pinchartl> some of them got merged already
+09:15 < pinchartl> the dw-hdmi rework is pending
+09:15 < pinchartl> I have been told it would be merged in the next few days
+09:15 < pinchartl> I'll then submit a pull request for the DU patches on top of it
+09:16 < pinchartl> which should make it to v4.12
+09:16 < pinchartl> (where's the round of applause ? :-))
+09:16 < pinchartl> then, I've also reworked and rebased the VSP rotation and histogram support
+09:17 < pinchartl> the largest part of that was to document interaction between formats and controls in V4L2
+09:17 < pinchartl> my documentation patch got approved by Hans, Mauro seemed OK too
+09:17 < pinchartl> I'll submit a pull request as well, but Mauro still has to review some of the patches, so it might not be accepted right away
+09:18 < pinchartl> apart from that, it's been lots and lots of review and discussions
+09:19 < pinchartl> for the next two weeks, holidays :-)
+09:19 < pinchartl> I'll be back on the 26th
+09:19 < uli___> _that_ deserves a round of applause, IMO :)
+09:19 < uli___> laurent not working. who would have thought? :)
+09:19 < pinchartl> :-D
+09:20 < morimoto> Sky holidays ?
+09:20 < pinchartl> no, South African holidays
+09:20 < pinchartl> I will be offline for two weeks
+09:20 < neg> uli___: are you happy for Laurent having a holiday or that he will be off grid for a while ;-)
+09:21 < pinchartl> no articular issue or blocker for me
+09:21 < pinchartl> dammsan: you're next
+09:21 < morimoto> Wait
+09:21 < morimoto> About HDMI video out, actually, HDMI video out is still unstable here. almost OK, but sometimes doesn't work
+09:21 < morimoto> If it became NG, never OK again. HDMI Monitor say "No signal"
+09:21 < dammsan> pinchart: nothing to report here
+09:21 < pinchartl> morimoto: that will need to be debugged and fixed
+09:22 < pinchartl> morimoto: I never claimed that the code is bug-free :-)
+09:22 < morimoto> Laurent side can't reproduce this, right ?
+09:22 < pinchartl> so far I haven't been able to
+09:22 < morimoto> OK, it will be never-endding-story
+09:22 < pinchartl> but I can try again if someone gives me a clear test procedure
+09:22 < dammsan> morimoto: maybe we can revisit next quarter?
+09:22 < morimoto> By SoW do you mena ?
+09:23 < morimoto> s/mena/mean/
+09:23 < pinchartl> note that the latest patch series should improve the hotplug use cases, so maybe the problem has been fixed
+09:23 < pinchartl> (maybe...)
+09:23 < dammsan> morimoto: no, when pincharl is back from vacation
+09:23 < morimoto> Ahh, OK, np
+09:23 < morimoto> not urgent, but I wanted to tell
+09:24 < pinchartl> thank you
+09:24 < dammsan> morimoto: thanks for sharing
+09:24 < pinchartl> morimoto: your turn
+09:24 < morimoto> OK
+09:24 < morimoto> Before my ABC, I have request to Laurent (before vacation :)
+09:25 < pinchartl> go ahead
+09:25 < morimoto> BSP team is waiting answer from you, about
+09:25 < morimoto> Subject: About Graphics Performance
+09:25 < morimoto> Date: Wed, 8 Feb 2017 10:04:54 +0900
+09:25 < morimoto> Please makes BSP team happy :P
+09:25 < pinchartl> that's the second topic for today, as I mentioned when we started the meeting :)
+09:25 < morimoto> OK
+09:25 < morimoto> A) What have I done since last time:
+09:25 < morimoto> - I posted OF-graph patch again.
+09:26 < morimoto> - I created 40bit Descriptor Mode on Audio DMAC
+09:26 < morimoto> - Forwarded BSP team question to Multimedia member
+09:26 < morimoto> B) What I plan to do till next time:
+09:26 < morimoto> - Missing 8ch support on Audio (not urgent)
+
+09:26 < morimoto> - Consider Tx/Rx interrupt sharing (not urgent)
+09:26 < morimoto> last one was I reported by email, but finished :P
+09:26 < morimoto> C) Problems I have currently:
+09:26 < pinchartl> :-)
+09:26 < morimoto> - I want to post HDMI sound patch-set which is based on
+09:26 < morimoto> posted OF-graph patch-set. Rob's response is...
+09:27 < morimoto> D) Posted/Accepted bugfix patches:
+09:27 < morimoto> Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: rsnd: fix sound route path when using SRC6/SRC9
+09:27 < morimoto> Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: rcar: avoid SSI_MODEx settings for SSI8
+09:27 < morimoto> --EOF--
+09:27 < pinchartl> do I need to list those patches or will they be picked up by your script ?
+09:28 < morimoto> my script is very clever, more than me :)
+09:28 < morimoto> so, D) is no longer needed on meeting, actually
+09:28 < pinchartl> :)
+09:28 < pinchartl> so Rob said "..." ?
+09:29 < morimoto> no response from him
+09:29 < morimoto> Am I mistaken
+09:29 < morimoto> ?
+09:29 < morimoto> Rob is no maintener ?
+09:29 < morimoto> s/no/not/
+09:29 < pinchartl> he's a DT maintainer
+09:29 < pinchartl> I expect him to be busy this week
+09:29 < pinchartl> with Linaro Connect in Budapest
+09:30 < morimoto> Ahh...
+09:30 < pinchartl> so maybe you should try to ping him next week ?
+09:30 < morimoto> OK, will do. thanks
+09:31 < pinchartl> you're welcome
+09:31 < pinchartl> next, neg
+09:31 < neg> a) Started to rework VIN driver for Gen3 to only use media graph and let userspace handle subdevice configuration and supported BSP team with investigation 
+             regarding the VIN.
+09:31 < neg> b) Complete the VIN Gen3 rewrite.
+09:32 < neg> c) None
+09:32 < neg> d) None
+09:32 < neg> -- EOT of short version, see reply to meeting invatation for more details --
+09:32 < morimoto> Ahh, neg and pinchartl, I sent camera board check request
+09:32 < morimoto> please check it
+09:32 < pinchartl> should I ignore the issue reported in the e-mail then ?
+09:33 < neg> morimoto: I checked and replied to it :-)
+09:33 < morimoto> thanks
+09:33 < pinchartl> next, uli___
+
+09:34 < uli___> i tried to get a mainline kernel to run on the acer chromebook r13
+09:34 < uli___> to give us a model organism for gpu development
+09:34 < uli___> see my status update on how that has failed so far...
+09:34 < uli___> the next thing i'm going to do is put together a prototype for a OV10365/MAX9271/MAX9286 camera setup
+09:35 < uli___> that's it for now
+09:35 < uli___> driver prototype, that is
+09:35 < uli___> i'm not completely awake yet :)
+09:35 < pinchartl> :-)
+09:35 < neg> for the chromebook lack of serial console, is netconsole an option?
+09:36 < pinchartl> neg: nope, we have no network
+09:36 < pinchartl> the problem at hand is to get a kernel to boot at all
+09:36 < pinchartl> it certainly doesn't boot to UI
+09:36 < neg> I see than I'm out of ideas :-(
+09:36 < pinchartl> and doesn't boot to the network either
+09:36 < pinchartl> I still thing our best option is to get this think opened and locate a serial port
+09:37 < pinchartl> dammsan: any other idea ?
+09:38 < geertu> uli___: "blinky LEDs are behind the embedded controller"
+09:38 < uli___> yes
+09:38 < geertu> uli___: Can you talk to them through the EC?
+09:39 < geertu> (on FOSDEM, there was a presentation about the EC)
+09:39 < dammsan> i just asked same thing as geertu over email
+09:39 < dammsan> getting an LED to blink would be very nice
+09:39 < dammsan> i can take it from there
+09:40 < uli___> might work
+09:40 < uli___> but the ec driver isn't trivial either
+09:41 < pinchartl> why don't anyone listen when I say we should crack the case open ? :-)
+09:41 < dammsan> perhaps it is possible to scale it down somehow?
+09:41 < uli___> i think writing custom code that talks to the ec is more likely to succeed
+09:41 < dammsan> uli___: what do you think about opening it up?
+09:42 < pinchartl> there might even be a jtag port inside
+09:43 < uli___> i don't know. i'm afraid it might end up open forever, with an unpredictable degree of functionality :)
+09:43 < pinchartl> open forever isn't a big issue
+09:43 < dammsan> you need to press a key to boot
+09:44 < pinchartl> the unpredictable degree of functionality is a bit more annoying
+09:46 < pinchartl> so what's the plan there ?
+09:46 < uli___> i can look into getting the ec leds to blink
+09:47 < dammsan> my hope is that ulrich will hand over his result to me including LED blink code
+09:48 < pinchartl> so do you want to go for one more round and try to talk to the EC from a mainline kernel ?
+09:49 < dammsan> i can port it
+09:49 < dammsan> i've done things like that before
+09:49 < dammsan> no biggie
+09:49 < pinchartl> I don't have high hopes there, but if you think it's useful, it's your choice :)
+09:49 < dammsan> seems our best choice right now
+09:49 < pinchartl> I *still* believe the best choice is to open it up
+09:49 < dammsan> but please note that next quarter additional batch 1 will not cover the GPU
+09:50 < dammsan> to give some time to figure things out
+09:50 < geertu> Do we know what's expected to be found inside?
+09:50 < dammsan> pinchartl: how about we compete about it in parallel once you are back from vacation?
+09:51 < dammsan> =)
+09:51 < pinchartl> dammsan: no, thanks, I have lots of work on DU, VSP and VIN already :)
+09:51 < dammsan> i'll take a blinky LED over unknown hardware any day
+09:51 < dammsan> there you go =)
+09:51 < dammsan> answer is pretty clear
+09:52 < pinchartl> ok, let's put that on hold then
+09:52 < pinchartl> this finishes the status update portion of this meeting
+09:53 < pinchartl> Topic 2. Graphics Performance issue
+09:53 < pinchartl> this was reported by the BSP team
+09:54 < pinchartl> who noticed a performance regression between v4.6 and v4.9
+09:54 < pinchartl> due to commit f1f0197796a61e5548af32606f15bcf8cf353267
+09:54 < pinchartl> drm: rcar-du: Map memory through the VSP device
+09:54 < pinchartl> and commit 60facdbd4d62b863917263bb1ad77bbb4a4a9369
+09:54 < pinchartl> v4l: vsp1: Add API to map and unmap DRM buffers through the VSP
+09:55 < pinchartl> those two patches ensure proper operation of the DU + VSP on Gen3 when the VSP is behind an IOMMU
+09:55 < pinchartl> this is required, but leads to an additional cache flush
+09:55 < pinchartl> which in turn degrades performances
+09:56 < pinchartl> (~300µs per frame)
+09:56 < pinchartl> the cache flush is needed
+09:57 < pinchartl> in the sense that, in the general case, the CPU will render to the buffer
+09:57 < pinchartl> (of course optimizations are possible when the CPU doesn't touch the buffer, but that's a separate topic)
+09:57 < pinchartl> *but*
+09:58 < pinchartl> the memory is currently mapped uncached to the CPU
+09:58 < pinchartl> so as long as this doesn't change, we could skip the cache handling operations
+09:59 < pinchartl> the DMA mapping API supports skipping cache management
+09:59 < pinchartl> when the DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC flag is set
+09:59 < pinchartl> s/flag/attribute flag/
+10:00 < pinchartl> we should experiment with that
+10:00 < pinchartl> I can give it a try after coming back from vacation
+10:00 < pinchartl> and I'll reply to the BSP team's e-mail today with this information
+10:00 < pinchartl> morimoto: does this answer your question ?
+10:01 < morimoto> Yes, maybe
+
+10:01 < morimoto> something feedback to BSP team makes them happy at this point
+10:01 < morimoto> I don't know how urgent it is
+10:02 < morimoto> do you think it will be long-term problem ?
+10:02 < pinchartl> note that those two commits are not upstream
+10:02 < pinchartl> they're part of the IOMMU support work for DU+VSP
+10:02 < pinchartl> but haven't been merged yet
+10:03 < pinchartl> hopefully it won't be a long-term issue
+10:03 < pinchartl> setting the DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC attribute might be all we need
+10:03 < pinchartl> but it has to be analyzed in more details, maybe there's more behind it
+10:03 < morimoto> OK, thanks
+10:05 < pinchartl> next topic,
+10:05 < pinchartl> Topic 3. Multimedia plan
+10:05 < pinchartl> which is related to
+10:05 < pinchartl> Topic 4. Additional tasks for Q2
+10:05 < pinchartl> additional tasks for Q1 are due mid-March
+10:05 < pinchartl> so ideally we should already have started negotiating additional tasks for Q2
+10:06 < pinchartl> which isn't the case
+10:06 < pinchartl> and it realistically can't be finalized before I leave at the end of this week
+10:06 < pinchartl> which means we would need to delay additional tasks once again
+10:07 < pinchartl> we have, however, started drafting a plan for multimedia development in Q2 and beyond when we were in Portland
+10:08 < pinchartl> with task proposals for Q2
+10:08 < pinchartl> I thus propose trying more losely-defined additional tasks for the first batch of Q2, with the details shifted from the SoW to the overall multimedia 
+                   development plan and schedule
+10:09 < pinchartl> in practice this means that SoWs could be negotiated faster
+10:09 < pinchartl> but the deliverables and milestones will be as clearly defined as before
+10:09 < dammsan> sure, we just need a plan =)
+10:09 < pinchartl> dammsan: did I send you the spreadsheet we wrote during the meeting ?
+10:10 < dammsan> i don't think so
+10:10 < pinchartl> I thought I did but couldn't find that in my mailbox
+10:10 < pinchartl> ok
+10:10 < pinchartl> that's fixed now
+10:10 < dammsan> thanks!!
+10:11 < neg> if possible I would also like a copy of the portland spreadsheet :-)
+10:11 < uli___> same here
+10:11 < dammsan> pinchartl: would it be possible for you to extract loose additional tasks for each member from the spread sheet?
+10:12 < pinchartl> neg: uli___: done
+10:12 < neg> thanks
+10:12 < pinchartl> dammsan: the focus is VIN for all team members for the first half of Q2
+10:12 < dammsan> pinchartl: or i can do it if you are busy
+10:12 < pinchartl> (except for me I suppose, as VSP and DU still need maintenance)
+10:13 < pinchartl> so I propose the same additional task for everybody
+
+10:13 < pinchartl> so I propose the same additional task for everybody
+10:13 < pinchartl> along the lines of "VIN CSI-2 multiple virtual channels development for Gen3"
+10:13 < dammsan> ok, so what is the deliverable then?
+10:14 < pinchartl> the type of deliverables is still kernel code, tests, documentation, as usual. posted to the same mailing lists and wikis
+10:14 < pinchartl> and the exact tasks are then defined in a plan
+10:15 < pinchartl> we had
+10:15 < pinchartl> ADV7482 Gen3 support upstream
+10:15 < pinchartl> MAX9260 driver prototype (Blanche)
+10:15 < pinchartl> MAX9271 driver prototype (Camera)
+10:15 < pinchartl> MAX9286 driver prototype with a single channel (Gen3)
+10:15 < pinchartl> V4L2 multiplexed stream support (.s_stream(), frame descriptors)
+10:15 < pinchartl> V4L2 pad-aware async subdev support
+10:15 < pinchartl> we need to revisit the details a bit as MAX9260 + Blanche might not make too much sense at this point
+10:16 < pinchartl> (as our PCB development plans got cancelled things may need to be adapted)
+10:16 < dammsan> sure
+10:17 < dammsan> so based on the spread sheet
+10:17 < dammsan> it looks like it is possible to deliver a bunch of prototypes for the first batch
+10:18 < dammsan> that would be 5/M as due date
+10:19 < pinchartl> yes
+10:19 < pinchartl> but there are many dependencies
+10:19 < pinchartl> so we'll need to adjust the goals dynamically if some parts get delayed
+10:20 < pinchartl> the OV10635 + MAX9271 + MAX9286 prototype is very important in that regard
+10:20 < pinchartl> uli___: we all count on you :-)
+10:20 < uli___> omg...
+10:20 < dammsan> so all tasks marked with Q2/1 can be baked into a single task then?
+10:20 < pinchartl> that's my proposal
+10:21 < pinchartl> same additional task wording for everybody
+10:21 < pinchartl> still with clearly defined goals internally, which can be communicated to Renesas
+10:21 < dammsan> sure
+10:21 < pinchartl> and we'll follow progress at least bi-weekly during the multimedia meetings
+10:21 < dammsan> can you communicate this plan with all members?
+10:22 < dammsan> so people not present in portland knows whatis going on
+10:22 < pinchartl> I would like to add to the SoWs that team members are responsible for reporting any current or foreseen issue or blocker ASAP to make it possible for the 
+                   plan to be maintained dynamically
+10:22 < pinchartl> let me send the spreadsheet to the periperi list
+10:23 < dammsan> so how do we make the task description?
+10:23 < pinchartl> or actually I'll attach it to the meeting report
+10:23 < dammsan> wait until you're back?
+10:23 < pinchartl> do you mean the SoW description or the tasks ?
+10:24 < dammsan> i mean the SoW description
+10:24 < dammsan> i guess we all want the papers in our hand
+10:25 < pinchartl> I would call them something along the line of "VIN CSI-2 multiple virtual channels development for Gen3"
+10:25 < pinchartl> all the boilerplate text can be copied from previous SoWs
+10:25 < pinchartl> with an additional paragraph asking to report issues and blockers proactively
+10:25 < pinchartl> and then a small description of the goal
+10:26 < dammsan> okhow about including the list of device drivers?
+10:26 < pinchartl> with short-term goals being communicated as part of the multimedia team management
+10:26 < pinchartl> yes, I'd include VIN, CSI-2, MAX*, ADV*, ...
+10:26 < pinchartl> we should list all of them
+10:26 < pinchartl> I can try to send you a draft before I leave
+10:26 < dammsan> can we have prototype driver support included as delvierable?
+10:27 < pinchartl> yes
+10:27 < dammsan> good
+10:27 < dammsan> sure, if you can manage before you leave that would be great
+10:28 < pinchartl> regarding the work itself and the detailed tasks
+10:28 < pinchartl> there's a proposal in the spreadsheet
+10:28 < pinchartl> but it will depend on the work Ulrich is doing
+10:29 < pinchartl> so we'll still need a few weeks before we can start the work on those external components
+10:29 < pinchartl> that's not an issue for Niklas (who will work on the VIN driver itself), Kieran (who will work on ADV7482) or me (who will be away for two weeks anyway)
+10:30 < pinchartl> for Jacopo and Ulrich, I think continuing the work on the OV10635 and MAX* is still the next logical step
+10:30 < dammsan> sounds good to me
+10:31 < pinchartl> jmondi: how long will you still be busy with your current tasks, when will you need new ones ?
+10:31 < pinchartl> dammsan: maybe you can help answering that question
+10:32 < jmondi> for multimedia only: let's say I can fill this week with test application
+10:32 < dammsan> pinchartl: i'm sure jacopo is happy to follow your plan as top priority
+10:33 < jmondi> I can buy some time with IO and Core tasks (hopefully some feedback will arrive on both now that 4.12 merge window has closed)
+10:33 < jmondi> I can live with what I have been tasked with until the end of March...
+10:33 < pinchartl> I'll be back on the 26th of March
+10:34 < pinchartl> if you need more work before I come back, there's the OV10635 driver
+10:34 < pinchartl> morimoto: I think you mentioned during the Portland meeting that you could get a datasheet (under NDA) for that sensor
+10:34 < pinchartl> do you know when we could get it ?
+10:34 < jmondi> I can start looking into that, sure... Maybe not deliver that much, but studying it yes
+10:35 < jmondi> If my understanding is correct, uli___ has some bsp code I can look at for that driver, right?
+10:35 < pinchartl> correct
+10:35 < pinchartl> the goal is to turn that into a proper V4L2 subdev driver
+10:35 < pinchartl> with the help of the datasheet
+10:36 < pinchartl> I think you'll have at least a week of work you can do before having to test anything
+10:36 < morimoto> pinchartl: I'm sorry, but which sensor ?
+10:36 < pinchartl> OV10635
+10:37 < morimoto> ? you didn't get it from Jinso ?
+10:37 < pinchartl> let me verify that
+10:37 < pinchartl> I got the schematics of the MAX9286 board
+10:37 < pinchartl> and the MAX9286 datasheet
+10:37 < pinchartl> the MAX9271 datasheet is publicly available so that's fine
+10:38 < pinchartl> but I haven't received the OV10635 datasheet
+10:38 < morimoto> OK, will check
+10:38 < pinchartl> thank you
+10:39 < pinchartl> could you please also provide it to Magnus (through Jinso if needed) ?
+10:39 < pinchartl> dammsan: and could you then forward it to Jacopo ?
+10:39 < pinchartl> or can Jinso provide it to Jacopo directly ?
+10:40 < morimoto> pinchartl: will do
+10:41 < pinchartl> thank you
+10:42 < pinchartl> I think that's all for the plan/additional tasks topic, unless someone has more questions
+10:42 < dammsan> sounds good
+10:43 < pinchartl> this actually leaves me without additional tasks ;-)
+10:43 < jmondi> I'll sync with uli___ to have that bsp driver shared
+10:43 < pinchartl> but I'm ok until end of March this time, so we can negotiate them when I'll be back
+10:44 < pinchartl> dammsan: is that ok with you ? do you think we can proceed fast at end of March ?
+10:44 < jmondi> and wait for that datasheet to land in my inbox from morimoto  or dammsan 
+10:45 < pinchartl> jmondi: it's here 
+https://github.com/CogentEmbedded/meta-rcar/blob/v2.12.0/meta-rcar-gen3/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-renesas/0040-H3-MAX9286-TI964-support-add-10635-10640-cameras.patch
+10:46 < jmondi> pinchartl: oh, thanks...
+10:46 < jmondi> ov10635.h  1159 lines... loving it already
+10:46 < neg> :-)
+10:46 < pinchartl> and it combines 3 drivers... it's quite messy
+10:47 < pinchartl> there's also https://patchwork.linuxtv.org/patch/18768/
+10:47 < dammsan> pinchartl: i'm flexible
+10:47 < jmondi> is this saner?
+10:48 < pinchartl> jmondi: in the sense that it's a driver for the ov10635 alone, yes. it has to be ported away from soc-camera
+10:48 < pinchartl> dammsan: ok, let's do that then
+10:49 < pinchartl> morimoto: as I'll propose additional tasks for me at end of this month, please let me know if there's any particular request from the BSP team
+10:49 < morimoto> jmondi, you can find ov10635 (local) driver here
+10:49 < morimoto> http://git.ti.com/android-sdk/kernel-omap/blobs/eb15176df1e988393d12a2b8c2becd30078edbd8/drivers/media/i2c/ov10635.c
+10:50 < pinchartl> it's the same driver. possibly slightly modified though
+10:50 < pinchartl> jmondi: you'll have to consolidate all the code available I think
+10:50 < morimoto> pinchartl: will do, with Magnus
+10:51 < pinchartl> morimoto: thank you
+10:51 < pinchartl> there are also base contracts that need to be renewed
+10:51 < pinchartl> dammsan: any news about that ?
+10:51 < jmondi> morimoto: pinchartl: thanks both... I'll save these and study
+10:52 < morimoto> jmondi: worst case, you can create driver without datasheet :)
+10:52 < pinchartl> jmondi: thank you. feel free to first focus on your other tasks, I could then be back when you'll start on the ov10635 to answer questions
+10:53 < dammsan> pinchart: base tasks are higher priority than additional
+10:53 < dammsan> i think they will be similar to before
+10:53 < jmondi> morimoto: and if I know OV datasheet a bit, that would not make a big difference. pinchartl: that's the plan, right!
+10:54 < pinchartl> dammsan: ok. I don't really expect anything new there indeed, but if you need any information from me, please let me know
+10:54 < dammsan> however the "developer" task might go from per-group to a unified description for all groups
+10:54 < pinchartl> I'm fine with that
+10:54 < dammsan> the group leader tasks will still be  separate
+10:54 < pinchartl> it's a base contract anyway, it has to be losely defined
+10:54 < pinchartl> thanks. I don't want to start leading other groups, we already have leaders who handle that fine :-)
+10:55 < pinchartl> jmondi: the OV datasheets are not perfect, but they can still help
+10:55 < pinchartl> dammsan: there's also a 25% base contract for Kieran in the pipe, right ?
+10:55 < dammsan> i believee so
+10:56 < dammsan> need to double check in the renesas office later this week
+10:56 < pinchartl> great, thanks
+10:57 < pinchartl> next topics then
+10:57 < pinchartl> (let's finish this meeting...)
+10:57 < pinchartl> Topic 5. Meeting around LinuxCon Japan
+10:57 < pinchartl> uli___: could you please provide your availabilities ?
+10:58 < uli___> for linuxcon japan?
+10:59 < pinchartl> yes
+10:59 < pinchartl> see "[periperi] Meeting around LinuxCon Japan"
+10:59 < uli___> not available, i'm afraid
+11:00 < pinchartl> not at all ?
+11:00 < uli___> no, sorry.
+11:00 < pinchartl> ok
+11:00 < pinchartl> that's a shame
+11:01 < pinchartl> but at least you don't have difficult requirements :-)
+11:01 < uli___> always happy to help :)
+11:01 < pinchartl> then
+11:02 < pinchartl> the result is
+11:02 < pinchartl> 66-77-788-77-76
+11:02 < pinchartl> (rounded)
+11:03 < pinchartl> it's nearly a tie between before LCJ (77) and after (76)
+11:04 < pinchartl> I'm tempted to go for 77 in that case
+11:04 < pinchartl> but Niklas had a 11 score for that
+11:04 < pinchartl> while Kieran and Jacopo have a 43 and 55 score respectively for the two days after the conference
+11:05 < pinchartl> neg: how bad would it be for you before LCJ ?
+11:05 < neg> managable
+11:06 < jmondi> if for Niklas is not that pressing, I would encourage meeting before LCJ :)
+11:06 < neg> at this point I'm more focused on setting the date and then I can work around it :-)
+11:07 < pinchartl> then I'd rather go for monday-tuesday before the conference, as it has the highest score
+11:07 < pinchartl> (nothing personal, it's all 99 for me)
+11:08 < neg> works for me
+11:08 < pinchartl> thank you
+11:08 < pinchartl> then it's settled
+11:09 < pinchartl> and I'll propose social events on the weekend after the conference (at least on Saturday) as that's 77
+11:09 < pinchartl> I'll be happy to hang out with anyone during the first or second weekend
+11:09 < pinchartl> final topic
+11:10 < pinchartl> Topic 6. Next meeting
+11:10 < pinchartl> as I'll be away for two weeks, we'll have to postpone until end of March
+11:10 < pinchartl> I propose the 28th or 29th, same time as today
+11:10 < jmondi> works for me (both meeting and conference dates)
+11:11 < neg> both ok for me
+11:11 < dammsan> same here
+11:11 < uli___> slight preference for the 28th
+11:12 < pinchartl> then let's go for the 28th. the sooner the better as it will already be late
+11:12 < pinchartl> that's all for today
+11:12 < pinchartl> sorry for the long meeting
+11:13 < neg> thanks all cu next time and pinchartl enjoy africa
+11:13 < jmondi> pinchartl: is winter there right? how bad is climate down there?
+11:14 < pinchartl> thank you
+11:14 < pinchartl> no, it's summer
+11:14 < geertu> pinchartl: Enjoy the holidays!
+11:14 < morimoto> thanks all, pinchartl: enjoy your holidays
+11:15  * jmondi confused on what season is now in his emisphere
+11:15 < jmondi> thank you all
+11:15 < geertu> jmondi: Winter ;-)
+11:17 < dammsan> thanks bye bye
+11:17 < uli___> bye, everyone
