Support GSoC student in upstreaming Android emulator code
Currently the Android emulator uses an elderly fork of QEMU; they've cherry-picked some later fixes, but unfortunately never had the resources to try to upstream their device models or rebase on newer upstream QEMU versions. There is a QEMU Google Summer of Code project to start by doing upstream QEMU versions of the Goldfish virtual platform devices; I (Peter Maydell) am the official 'mentor' for the student. Google suggest that this will take an average of 5 hours a week from the mentor until the end of August; this blueprint tracks that resource commitment.
Actual progress in the GSoC project work is being tracked by Patrick in a blog: http://
