AM37x/DM37x Android ICS kernel support



I am attempting to port Android ICS (4.0.4) to an AM37x/DM37x board. I looked at the TI AM37x Android 4.0 Guide (http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/TI-AM37x-Android-4.0-Guide) from the TI Processors Wiki, which refers to rowboat regarding the kernel source code location. However, the ICS kernel for AM37x/DM37x boards at rowboat (http://gitorious.org/rowboat/kernel/commits/rowboat-ics-kernel-2.6.37) is very old: 2.6.37, while it is advised to run Linux 3.0 with the Android ICS userspace. Moreover, this kernel comes with many incompatibilities with the ICS userspace, such as the ADB interface. Since I want to keep my userspace tree clean, I am not ready to workaround the situation by implementing the old ADB interface up in userspace.

Could TI release a proper ICS kernel (that would be a 3.0 Linux kernel with both AM37x/DM37x support and proper Android support for the ICS userspace)? The current situation is really a dead-end as of now. Note that a proper ICS kernel was released for other OMAP3 SoCs (at omapzoom), but that kernel doesn't include proper AM37x/DM37x support.

Thanks in advance.
