Release checklist

Each time we do a new SDK release for TI, there are quite some things to do. This document attempts to list all tasks to be done before release.

Note

Some operations require VPN access, such as opening merge requests on TI’s internal forge.

Android

• Update manifest to include latest stable AOSP changes Example: https://git.ti.com/cgit/android/manifest/commit/?h=android14-release&id=c2660bb68b9a174108eb249de82b4303059b9c43

• GPU DDK prebuilts Rebuild all GPU DDK libraries based on the projects hosted on TI’s internal forge. Send a pull request on TI’s internal forge to include those binaries. Example: https://git.ti.com/cgit/android/vendor-ti-am62x/commit/?h=d-android14-release&id=ea24fe236ca5105efedc62f8ce317df8e8a0c236

• TI IPC firmware Update the prebuild TI IPC firmware. It should be downloaded from ti-linux-firmware on git.ti.com. Make sure it matches the latest release tag (for example refs/tags/09.02.009). Example: https://git.ti.com/cgit/android/vendor-ti-am62x/commit/?h=d-android14-release&id=29e3fefb021c06539a183948b70a20fc1e6a1c25 Send a pull request on TI’s internal forge to include those binaries.

• Check all projects listed by repo list -g ti and send patches with git send-email.

Kernel

• Port all patches from ti-linux-6.6.y: https://git.ti.com/cgit/ti-linux-kernel/ti-linux-kernel/log/?h=ti-linux-6.6.y Stop at the most recent release. (For example refs/tags/09.02.00.009). There are special porting rules that should be followed.

• Update the kernel manifest to make sure we use the latest imgtech driver. Example: https://git.ti.com/cgit/android/manifest/commit/?h=android14-release&id=40f7b52a0ebc2d6b4bbc75eaf2e0828d642e131c

• Send pull request to TI

Bootloaders

• Make sure all patches have landed in https://git.ti.com/cgit/ti-u-boot/ti-u-boot/
