* VFIO and the Freescale Management Complex (Confirmed)

The Freescale Management Complex (fsl-mc) is a new type of bus that requires VFIO support, and has some substantial differences from PCI and platform buses. This discussion presents an overview of the new bus and a proposal for how to integrate it with VFIO.

* Obsoleting support for old hardware (Confirmed)

Notes for this session: http://www.linuxplumbersconf.org/2014/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/LPC2014_BOF_Obsoleting_support_for_old_hardware.txt Certain hardware has not been available and probably not used for years. Finding hardware for testing when enhancing the code to use new APIs is becoming harder and harder.
