[Qemu-devel] Allwinner-a10 maintainership

[Markus Armbruster]

Hi Beniamino,

E-mail to our maintainer for Allwinner-a10 Li Guang
<lig.fnst@cn.fujitsu.com> bounces.  Need a new one.  Since you've done
substantial work on it relatively recently, you seem to be the obvious
victim.  Would you be willing to serve?

If not, do you know anyone who's interested in this stuff?

Hi Markus,

if Li Guang cannot be contacted anymore, it's fine with me to take his
place as maintainer for the Allwinner-A10 code; I guess this won't
require a huge effort.

Thanks a lot!  Please post a patch to MAINTAINERS updating the M: line.
Feel free to update S: as well.

Regarding effort.  The Allwinner-a10 stanza in MAINTAINERS covers seven
files.  Past year's commits:

$ git-log --since "1 year" hw/*/allwinner-a10* include/hw/*/allwinner-a10* hw/arm/cubieboard.c

    e264d29 Use DEFINE_MACHINE() to register all machines
    bd2a888 Convert ffs() != 0 callers to ctz32()
    c8623c0 arm: memory: Replace memory_region_init_ram with memory_region_allocate_system_memory
    19f33f1 hw: Mark device misusing nd_table[] FIXME
    d71b22b hw: Mark devices picking up char backends actively FIXME

It fails to cover hw/net/allwinner_emac.c
include/hw/net/allwinner_emac.h.  If I add them, I get two more:

    3e23056 hw/net: create common collection of MII definitions
    57407ea net: remove all cleanup methods from NIC NetClientInfos

If you can cover allwinner-emac, too, please add suitable patterns.
Same patch is fine.
