Hey,

can anybody give me a quick wrap-up about the current state of AM33xx
based SoCs in mainline? What are the next steps to get things merged?
There is a wiki page [1] that is intended to provide a summary, but I'm
confident it is not up-to-date.  
Page updated now...

Great, thanks. So if things get upstreamed, which is the repo/branch
they appear in? In other words: where is the code people should write
patches against? I couldn't find an answer to that yet.
ping?
Bug fixes are always accepted against Linus's tree[1].

For features, typically there is a -next branch that each subsystem
maintainer has against which feature development happens. In case of
OMAP, feature development happens against master branch of linux-omap
tree[2]. One way to get to know the -next branches of all subsystem is
to look at Next/Trees file of linux-next tree[3].

Note that in case of ARM, sub-arch maintainers send the code to arm-soc
maintainers who in turn have a branch which gets merged to linux-next.

Hope that helps.

Thanks,
Sekhar
