This page has a list of areas of the kernel where multiple phone vendors have code out-of-tree, or that appear to need some work in order to accommodate contribution of phone-related software.

Overview

Technical areas

Here are some lists of things to get mainlined, in different technical areas:

USB

Here's a brief list:

  • USB-gadget to charger interface
  • USB code for external vbus and ID detection (looks like extcon was created for stuff like this)

Notes from ksummit-discuss list

  • RGB leds - not the same as 3 leds, and sometimes have hardware acceleration
  • battery over-discharge protection
  • charger (there are 3 different chargers on N900)
  • voice link to modem (Nokia says ALSO is not suitable for modem audio)
  • userspace (mini-distro?) for testing
  • suspend-to-ram
