WiLink 7 would be a peripheral which has 1 interface with apps processor being UART, more details at, http://www.google.co.in/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=3&ved=0CBQQFjAC&url=http%3A%2F%2Ffocus.ti.com%2Fgeneral%2Fdocs%2Fwtbu%2Fwtbuproductcontent.tsp%3FtemplateId%3D6123%26navigationId%3D12859%26contentId%3D67453%26DCMP%3Dwtbu_wilink7_2010%26HQS%3DOther%2BPR%2Bwilink7videos&ei=d7kyTKPXMoTGlQfJ-7W-Cw&usg=AFQjCNEjN2jc9TdSDWDRtWcmbZn6Szhbug&sig2=DN4gAQls9AdOeHQhlPlvjA Since there exists only 1 interface for all BT/FM and GPS cores on chip, a shared transport driver has been developed and placed at drivers/staging/ti-st/ Would it be suitable if we place the V4L2 FM driver at drivers/staging/ti-st/ to ? Since we don't have the common interface headers such as st.h in include/linux.. > Regards, > > Hans > > -- > Hans Verkuil - video4linux developer - sponsored by > TANDBERG, part of Cisco > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
