Hello everyone, We are in the final week of GSoC�18 program and yesterday our code

has successfully merged. It got crashed in the first build because we thought we
would add the code but disable the build currently but we didn�t test the case when
device manager will try to find the driver in a certain directory which we
hardcoded at the time of loading the module. So we just changed it to an OR
condition where it won�t be able to find the driver binary but still be able to
boot the OS in any case.

Blog post by PulkoMandy on Mon, 2018-07-30 13:26
Hi there, it's time for the monthly report! (yes, I'm still out of inspiration for
catchy headlines) This report covers hrev52055-521XX Drivers waddlesplash completed
his work synchronizing drivers with FreeBSD 11. The FreeBSD9 compatibility layer is
now gone and all drivers are up to date again. jessicah fixed a problem in the UEFI
framebuffer driver (most of the code is shared with the "VESA" driver, although
there is no VESA BIOS in this case).

Hello everyone, here we are with another update on the project. Last week we have
started with installing interrupt handler, so basically we will pass the address of
a function while installing the interrupt handler, later when an interrupt occurs
that function will be called. We opted for pin-based interrupt handler, which is
one of the levels of interrupt handling. I have explained them in previous blogs.
Instructions to install an interrupt handler: bus->irq = pciInfo->u.

So here we are in the final week of the second phase of this project. I would like
to address what was planned for this phase and what we have achieved and will
proceed to plan for the third phase. Second Phase Highlights We were successful in
register mapping through MMUIO. We have created a bus manager but not linked with
controller ATM. Interrupts have not been implemented but also not required in this
phase.

Hey guys! Last week we have improved the code and made it more readable. We have
completed the reset and clock sequence and proceed with power sequence. In the 4th
step of the sequence, it asks to get the Operation Conditions Register(OCR) value
of SD card. In the SD host controller spec, in command register there is command
index bits which mention about setting up command number specified in bits 45-40 of
the command-format in SD Memory Card Physical Layer Specification.

[GSoC 2018 - TrackGit] Progress Report 10
Blog post by hrily on Mon, 2018-07-09 18:05 haiku, gsoc, gsoc2018, tracker
This is the tenth progress report for TrackGit project. I did the following in last
week. Implemented Show conflicts Window Last week I implemented Pull command. While
pulling changes, sometimes there might be conflicts while merging the changes.
These conflicts are shown when pull command execution is finished. In addition to
that, I implemented a �Show conflicts� option to see the current conflicting files
in the repository. This option is only shown when there are conflicts in the
repository.
