Correct. Those drivers target the Xilinx SoC FPGAs, no standalone FPGAs connected to an external CPU. > However, my idea is to create a MFD device to bind video drivers.

Is this the way to go ? Your use case is certainly valid, so I'm certainly open to supporting it in the drivers. I'm wondering whether your MFD decide driver could create a DT fragment to describe the IP cores topology. That way we could reuse the existing DT support in individual drivers. -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart -- 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
