Headline: Linaro member platforms converted to CONFIG_
Acceptance: Done when all child blueprints are done
[jakub-pavelek 2013-04-08] All children done, wrap up the rest. 3.10 target.
[jakub-pavelek 2013-05-07] Moving work items from 13.04 to 13.05. 3.10 merge window open, either in or not.
[arnd-arndb 2013-05-08] changed priority to medium to reflect reality. None of this was done for 3.10.
[jakub-pavelek 2013-05-10] Moving from 3.10 to 3.11. Suggestion - With the medium priority - it could go to follow-up work too, instead of staying here in the essential single zImage part of the work.
Basic workflow:
- Get proper clocksource in place
- Get proper clockevent in place
- select GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS for the platform
- make sure the clockevent supports CLOCK_EVT_
- select CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE or preferably CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL, which will in turn select CONFIG_TICK_ONESHOT
- select CONFIG_
