[meta-freescale] i.MX6 - Linux 3.10.17_1.0.1 Patch Release

[Lauren Post]

1)  3.10.17-1.0.1 is a graphics update only.  It was only tested for graphics so the kernel baseline it used was the GA only plus graphics patches only.   Because nothing but graphics was tested this one time they kept fixes on top of GA.    This is a hot fix that graphics team wanted to get out so they minimized the scope so testing could happen faster and get out faster to community.

2)  Like I said the next update which is being tested will have the kernel patches that were not included in 3.10.17-1.0.1

Uh? You must be kidding right?

So you did the update to a *newer* fix being aware it removed other fixes?

I were expecting a better QA control from Freescale and I didn't double check all the release as I trusted it had been checked. I will be more rigorous next time...

So please ask for this to be done RIGHT this time. And be sure to include the fixes of BOTH 1.0.0 and 1.0.1 into the upcoming one.

I am preparing the fix on top of 1.0.1 including the missing patches and will merge it in master and daisy soon. :-(
