But I've still got another problem: how can I use DT along w/ ACPI ? The scenario goes like this: * machine boots and probes normally w/ ACPI * device is detected via USB, PCI, DMI, etc -> driver gets active * driver loads (or carries) a DT snippet * devices on the bus are instantiated via this DT snippet (driver could also be some udev vodoo) Example a: * generic usb i2c dongle w/ some i2c devices attached behind it * config (or DT snippet) somewhere in the FS Example b: * x86 board driver (eg. apu2/3/4), probed via DMI * just instantiates a bunch of generic drivers and wires up devices (gpio, leds, keys, ...) Do you think we can already do that ? Otherwise, what has to be done to achieve that ? --mtx -- --- Hinweis: unverschlüsselte E-Mails können leicht abgehört und manipuliert werden !
