Also check what we have under lib/ (hint: read linux/kernel.h for inline and exported function helpers). I might look at the patches later on if I would have some spare time (I actually don't know why I'm in Cc list here). > > v1: > first shot > > Sven Van Asbroeck (4): > mfd: support the Arcx anybus bridge. > dt-bindings: anybus-bridge: document devicetree binding. > bus: support HMS Anybus-S bus. > misc: support HMS Profinet IRT industrial controller. > > .../bindings/mfd/arcx,anybus-bridge.txt | 37 + > .../devicetree/bindings/vendor-prefixes.txt | 1 + > drivers/bus/Kconfig | 11 + > drivers/bus/Makefile | 1 + > drivers/bus/anybuss-host.c | 1301 +++++++++++++++++ > drivers/mfd/Kconfig | 11 + > drivers/mfd/Makefile | 1 + > drivers/mfd/anybus-bridge.c | 441 ++++++ > drivers/misc/Kconfig | 11 + > drivers/misc/Makefile | 1 + > drivers/misc/hms-profinet.c | 747 ++++++++++ > include/linux/anybuss-client.h | 100 ++ > include/linux/anybuss-host.h | 28 + > include/uapi/linux/hms-common.h | 14 + > include/uapi/linux/hms-profinet.h | 101 ++ > 15 files changed, 2806 insertions(+) > create mode 100644 Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/arcx,anybus-bridge.txt > create mode 100644 drivers/bus/anybuss-host.c > create mode 100644 drivers/mfd/anybus-bridge.c > create mode 100644 drivers/misc/hms-profinet.c > create mode 100644 include/linux/anybuss-client.h > create mode 100644 include/linux/anybuss-host.h > create mode 100644 include/uapi/linux/hms-common.h > create mode 100644 include/uapi/linux/hms-profinet.h > > -- > 2.17.1 > -- With Best Regards, Andy Shevchenko
