You could abuse greybus to do something like this, but that feels like a ton of extra work when there are already solutions for this type of thing today in Linux. Why not just use some of the existing hardware pass-through solutions that are out there that allow virtual kernels to have access to hardware directly? Why try to create yet-another way to do this? But hey, if you want to take the time to write such kernel code, all the best! :) greg k-h _______________________________________________ greybus-dev mailing list greybus-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/greybus-dev
