LPC16 PCI microconference - Call for sessions proposals

Hi,

following the official LPC16 PCI uconf acceptance notification:

https://www.linuxplumbersconf.org/2016/pci-microconference-accepted-into-2016-linux-plumbers-conference/

I am sending out a call for sessions proposals open to all developers interested/involved in Linux kernel PCI development.

The LPC16 uconf wiki provides a list of topics that we put forward for the microconference submission:

http://wiki.linuxplumbersconf.org/2016:pci

The wiki is there to provide a list of topics that we considered key and it should not be considered final, actually it is a starting point to define a possible schedule structure.

Session proposals for the LPC16 PCI microconference are warmly encouraged and can be submitted here:

http://www.linuxplumbersconf.org/2016/ocw/events/LPC2016/tracks/531

Maintainers in CC, as an initial step we singled out the main subtracks below and I would be grateful if you could add a session through the link above and run the respective session (in brackets people whom I know are involved in the topic and are likely to be asked to run/take part in the session; NB: it is obviously incomplete, and it is based on what we could infer from current PCI related patches, please do manifest your interest):

- PCI resources allocation/validation/cross-arch consolidation ([Bjorn, Lorenzo, Yinghai, Benjamin, Jesse, Arnd])
- PCI Virtualization (cross-topic)
([Alex, Bjorn, Eric, Marc, Joerg, Will, David])
- PCI MSI ([Alex, Eric, Marc])
- PCI IOMMU ([Joerg, David, Jesse, Will, Marc])
- PCIe (ATS, PRI) ([Jesse, Will])
- PCIe root ports power management ([Rafael])
- PCI DT/ACPI - consolidation ([Bjorn, Lorenzo, Arnd, Rob])

Anyone involved in PCI kernel development, if you wish to add sessions and attend the microconference consider yourself welcome, for any questions just reply to this thread or drop me a line.

Looking forward to meeting you all in Santa Fe for this interesting track !

Lorenzo

Hi,

Recently I sent a patch series to add support for configurable PCI endpoint [1]. It would be nice if we can allocate time to discuss this in LPC. I've also submitted a proposal for this in [2]. Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks
Kishon
