Applying the EAS patch set to deprecated Arm Platforms releases

The article below is DEPRECATED as the Arm Reference Platforms deliverables use EAS by default from release 16.09 onwards.

Before release 16.09, the `lsk-armlt' kernel (replaced with `ack-armlt') used big.LITTLE intelligent scheduling. Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS) is a replacement to big.LITTLE provided by Arm and Linaro. More info about EAS can be found here.

To fetch `lsk-3.18-armlt' with EAS support:

$ cd linux
$ git describe --tags
$ git checkout lsk-3.18-armlt-YYYYMMDD-eas-test

Note: Replace `YYYYMMDD' with your desired year/month/day release as identified by the `git describe --tags' command.

To fetch `lsk-4.4-armlt' with EAS support:

$ git remote add eas https://git.linaro.org/arm/eas/kernel.git
$ git fetch eas
$ git checkout lsk-4.4-eas-v5.2
