Since the CiMax just follows EN50221, the device specifies that the modules are daisy chained according to EN50221, see page 16 of the CiMax datasheet. (Don't know whether you have the same datasheet, what i have is Rev A, 7-Sep-01) See also 5.4.4 en50221. Also A.2.2.1. But i didn't really follow this part, if you mean the Hot Insertion feature on the CIMAx, just add in flag to say ca->flags (you need to define the flag though) and just do the code run conditionally based on the flag, say something like DVB_CA_EN50221_HOT_INSERT to conditionally enable the Reset code in dvb_ca_en50221. That would help ? Is that what you were asking ? > and I don't want to put any chip-wide initialization code to driver's > init function (the driver is supposed to deal with > with few CIMaXes) device specific code has to go into the device specific driver alone.
