LCE-EU 2015

The kernelci.org project is currently doing hundreds of boot tests for upstream kernels on a wide variety of hardware. This BoF will provide a very brief overview of kernelci.org and then be a forum for discussion and feature requests.

Device Tree development seems to be accelerating, and new concepts are being introduced (and I am one of the parties responsible).
A BoF that addresses the new kernel facilities will be helpful to embedded developers that want to use it.
Topics covered:
* Device Tree Overlays
* Device Tree Changesets
* Device Tree variants (quirks) for significantly reducing the number of DTs for minor board differences.
* Using Device Tree for device dependencies and fixing the probe order mess.
* Dynamic Device Tree node generation for probeable devices.
* Writing a Device Tree Overlay manager for your own board.

and more.
