Whiteboard

[pwlars 2012-03-19] - redid the work items after proposing the change to Mounir today.
[mounir-bsaibes 2012-04-30] The integrated governor is already implemented, we just need to use it.

Meta:
Headline:
Acceptance:
Roadmap id: KWG2012-BIG-LITTLE-MIGRATION

The core test suite is for lower level tests, including boot, basic switching tests, etc. It also covers things like sanity testing for memory stress, disk io stress, cache coherency, etc. There will be a switching daemon that will turn on/off switching at various rates that can be done in conjunction with these activities to test that the system can still run these tests correctly while switching back and forth.

Additionally, the android team is working on a set of system tests that are specific to android, and will do more application workload type testing on top of android which can also be run in parallel to switching in the background to test that these user workloads can run without problems while switching is happening.
