AGM 200 Compatibility Project

Jump to navigationJump to search


Generate acceptable evidence that the previously verified 6.12.0 (Cardon) and 7.1.0 (Agave) Deos kernel versions are compatible with the Intel Pentium-M processor that will be used on the Primus Epic AGM-200 platform.

Description

The Primus Epic team is changing some of their Advanced Graphics Module (AGM) Intel Pentium III based modules to Pentium-M. The Deos team needs to update the Pentium-M processor errata analysis results to show the 6.12.0 and 7.1.0 kernel versions are compatible with the chosen CPU architecture.

The results of this activity will be additional verification evidence.

News

  • 2007-03-01: Errata analysis complete and in cert archive.
  • 2007-01-25: From Ryan Roffelsen "I did a quick read through the errata this morning and I found some that will require investigation (x22, x23, x24 (this should have user impact only), x25). The others I believe can easily be explained away. Given this I would expect the 40 hour estimate to be accurate." Given this estimate enhancement, and a conservative start date of mid-February, an end of February completion date is predicted.
  • 2007-01-24: It appears re-execution of kernel tests on an AGM-200 module will not be required. From Paul Fisher: "I agree that if you run [Requirements Based Tests] (RBT) on one stepping, that’s good enough, (with the errata check)." Since kernel RBT has already been done on an Epic Pentium-M proc, said testing will *not* need to be repeated for an AGM-200 module as long as the errata analysis is updated. I've updated the project page to denote the resulting reduced effort.
