Hi folks, I've got an patch for adding the amd z160/z430 (old adreno, built in mx53) gpus to dts, which isn't supported by mainline kernel, and likely won't be anytime soon. The only available driver is the proprietary one by fsl (along with a bunch of pretty ugly and insecure patches). That raises an interesting question for me: should such patches ever go into mainline ? con: there's no (mainline-suitable) driver for that, and nothing in sight - therefore the entry would be pretty useless for mainline users (those using the proprietary one would have their own patchset anyways) pro: dts should describe the hardware - as precisely as feasible - so any (dt-capable) os/kernel can configure its drivers from there (one could even argue, that the linux kernel tree isn't the right place for maintaining the dts'es) What's your opinion ? Is there some policy for that ? thx -- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult +49-151-27565287 MELAG Medizintechnik oHG Sitz Berlin Registergericht AG Charlottenburg HRA 21333 B Wichtiger Hinweis: Diese Nachricht kann vertrauliche oder nur für einen begrenzten Personenkreis bestimmte Informationen enthalten.
