It surely is a great thing that so many vendors started to contribute to the Linux Kernel and hobbyists still add a lot of value. While the amount of contributors steadily increases, the amount of reviewers does not raise at the same level, sadly. This will cause trouble, be it that some subsystem becomes a bottleneck or patches with questionable quality enter the kernel. In his presentation, Wolfram talks about the status quo of the subsystems needed for a typical SoC. The audience will learn about their _latencies_, other specialities, and where problems might be waiting. Adding personal experience from the I2C subsystem, recommendations are given on personal level and also on a bigger scale. http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/embedded-linux-conference-europe/program/schedule
