Just lemme know. The basic problem is essentially threefold: - the stuff has to be ported accross 4 years of kernel development - the implementations of the s3c-architecture in the vendor kernel and the mailine kernel don't seem to be related at all or were changed much - one would need a sane scheme on how to handle the differences between the submodels. At the moment they use clauses like "if modelX || modelY ... else ... endif" where each respective model is listed The soundchip parts for example look reasonably clean, i.e. they don't have that many real customizations in them. Mostly stuff thats commented out already. Implementing the power/regulator stuff might be easy (or not) because similar chips seem to be in the kernel i.e. charger bq24022 in kernel vs. bq24075 in the devices. But one would need the knowledge about these things :-) . [Also many tps6502XX regulator drivers are in the mainline kernel but not the specific TPS650240] _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
