If you were a porter for a previous release, we'd like you to sign up
again for bullseye.

I know I'm a bit late to the party now...

I do run both arm64 and armhf on numerous machines, mostly as part of
the reproducible builds zoo. We mostly stick to stable for the main OS,
but do run unstable and testing in chroots. I also sometimes run testing
or individual packages from unstable on various other armhf and arm64
machines I use and make efforts to report and ideally fix bugs when encountered.

I maintain u-boot and arm-trusted-firmware, used primarily on armhf and
arm64. I do occasional debian-installer work and linux related work for
both arm64 and armhf.

I can most likely continue doing the above for the forseeable future.

Not likely to fix deeply complicated toolchain issues.


If all that qualifies for a porter hat, ok, if not, also ok. :)

Hi

We are doing a roll call for porters of all release architectures. If
you are an active porter behind one of the release architectures [1]
for the entire lifetime of Debian Bullseye (est. end of 2024), please
respond with a signed email containing the following before Friday,
November 27:

* Which architectures are you committing to be an active porter for?

arm64,armhf,armel

* Please describe recent relevant porter contributions.

on-site support for buildds at arm.
process day-to-day buildd requests give-backs)
investigate missing arm support (e.g. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=724711)
investigate compiler issues and push to arm compiler team if appropriate (e.g. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=974058 )
run rebuilds across the arch occaisionally (currently planned for arm64 to test BTI support and armhf to test 64-bit timet release)

* Are you running/using Debian testing or sid on said port(s)?

yes. I have three arm64 buildds (I did have an arm64 desktop until we
all got sent home - it's now stuck in the office, but I should have an
arm64 laptop from next week...) (thunderx, softiron, Ampere emag). and
an assortment of armhf and armel devices including my home controller
(armel, balloonboard) (odroid, hikey, arndale, cubietruck, qnap). My home server and mythtv backend was armhf until it croaked last month. An
emergency x86 box has been stuffed in until I work out what's wrong
with it/replace it.

* Are you testing/patching d-i for the port(s)?

Yes. Added multiple console support for last release.
