Hi! > >>>> What needs to be done is the bring up of the device including the proper UART settings and speed and then just run the firmware downloads. All firmware files on the Nokia devices where just HCI commands with vendor specific details. Some from CSR, some from Broadcom and some from TI. You can actually decode them if you really want to. Shouldn't be that hard. > >>>> > >>> > >>> Speed changes at the end of firmware load, but I guess that's detail? > >>> Anyway, patch would look like this. > >> > >> You should really look into providing hdev->setup() callback.

Well, I did remove non-relevant firmware loaders, and I can remove the switches for different firmware loaders, too, but spending time removing support for different hardware does not sound quite right. > However you might want to check Neil Brown's patches for TTY-slave >devices he just posted.

I also send an email about using the new unconfigured >stage to get this done cleanly. I seen them, but they don't help, I'm afraid. The GPIOs are used for power saving, and they are used in various places including the serial irq handler.
