Should I be working in sunxi-next I wonder?

Yes, this is the best way, cedrus is very specific to sunxi.
So before working on mainline, I think the best is to work un sunxi-next branch.

Is the requests2 api in sunxi-next?

It should be there,
take a look at latest commit of yesterday:
https://github.com/linux-sunxi/linux-sunxi/commit/df7cacd062cd84c551d7e72f15b1af6d71abc198

No, it shouldn't. sunxi-next is about patches that are related to
sunxi that have been accepted in their respective maintainers'
branches.

While we could argue about the first criteria, the second one is not
respected.

And really, just develop against 4.14. sunxi-next is rebased, and it's
just not something you can base some work on.

Where do we can work on then?
Should Thomas setup his own github repo?
What about the one youâve set up @free-electrons?

I already said that, please make pull requests to that repo.

Sorry I can't understand which repo,
do you mean https://github.com/free-electrons/linux-cedrus?

And sorry for dumb question,
but which branch do I have to use if I want to develop a project with sunxi?
Directly mainline patched with sunxi-next branch,
or another branch @linux-sunxi?

Thank you for you patience.


Maxime
