Hi All,
The next release of the Firmware-A bundle of projects tagged v2.10 has an expected code freeze date of Nov, 7th 2023.
Refer to the Release Cadence section from TF-A documentation (https://git.trustedfirmware.org/TF-A/trusted-firmware-a.git/tree/docs/about…).
Closing out the release takes around 6-10 working days after the code freeze.
Preparations tasks for v2.10 release should start in coming month.
We want to ensure that planned feature patches for the release are submitted in good time for the review process to conclude. As a kind recommendation and a matter of sharing CI resources, please launch CI jobs with care e.g.:
-For simple platform, docs changes, or one liners, use Allow-CI+1 label (no need for a full Allow-CI+2 run).
-For large patch stacks use Allow-CI+2 at top of the patch stack (and if required few individual Allow+CI+1 in the middle of the patch stack).
-Carefully analyze results and fix the change if required, before launching new jobs on the same change.
-If after issuing a Allow-CI+1 or Allow-CI+2 label a Build start notice is not added as a gerrit comment on the patch right away please be patient as under heavy load CI jobs can be queued and in extreme conditions it can be over an hour before the Build start notice is issued. Issuing another Allow-CI+1 or Allow-CI+2 label will just result in an additional job being queued.
Thanks & Regards,
Olivier.
Hi,
https://hafnium.readthedocs.io/en/latest/design/ffa-manifest-binding.html
has a nice description of the manifest bindings. The intention is
obviously to match the fields in the FF-A specification. However, the
"pages-count" field in the bindings is called "page count" in the
specification. Any chance of fixing this so the two fields have the
same name?
Thanks,
Jens
Hi All,
Note you may have received another instance of this note but when I
attempted to send to all TF ML's simultaneously it seemed to fail, so
sending to each one at a time. Sorry about that. :/

Hi All,
To all TF maillists in case all aren't yet aware.
We've created a Discord Server for real time chats/sharing. This solution
comes at no cost to the project, is set up with channels for each project,
includes a #general channel, and supports direct 1-1 chats between members,
all with the goal of improving collaboration between trustedfirmware.org
developers.
I've attached a recent screenshot from the #general channel as a sample of
the interface and usages.
