Hello, Krzysztof I sent patch#2 three times. due to the influence of the email system, there was something wrong with the first and second mails. Sorry for causing confusion. Did you receive the third patch i sent you? >> This patch is specialized in Artpec-8, >> the SoC Platform of Axis Communication, and is newly applied. >> Since the target SoC platform is different from the driver previously >> used by Samsung, it is difficult to merge with the existing driver. > > Recently I always saw such answers and sometimes it was true, sometimes > not.

Because the SoC platform is different, the IP configuration of PCIe is also different. We will organize a driver for Artpec-8 platform and if there is no special reason, maintain this without adding it from the next series. Thank you.
