Hi Mark, The problem is that some people may want to do modifications to this soc driver, and they won´t be able to test that their changes are valid (ex: do not break compilation). > Do the DaVinci drivers build at all in mainline, anyway? Last time I > checked they required out of tree DMA patches. I just sucessfully compiled the davinci-sffsdr soc driver (although audio seems broken for me at the moment when I actually test it).
