Proposals

Embedded track

Wiki

Possible track for capturing embedded/small system topics

  • Standardize boot interface for ARM
  • Device driver and the device tree
  • Core plumbing required in small systems.
  • Running mainstream distros on ARM devices

Proposals for this track

* data logging for device field trials

embedded device debugging is made harder by the fact that people use them, and when they crash you arn't there. How to capture useful data persistently for remote postmortem debug is the question
