Hi Feng, I'm really concerned with this driver. I think it needs a lot more work before it is ready for prime-time. Again, you might want to consider asking Greg to add it to the staging tree while you clean stuff up and coordinate with the max3100 driver author. Comments below.

I've looked at the max3100 driver, and the max3110 data sheet specifically states that it is max3100 compatible. I'm opposed to the merging of this driver until you've at least made an attempt at working with the max3100 driver author to produce a single driver. > obj-$(CONFIG_SERIAL_IP22_ZILOG) += ip22zilog.o > obj-$(CONFIG_SERIAL_MUX) += mux.o > obj-$(CONFIG_SERIAL_68328) += 68328serial.o > diff --git a/drivers/serial/max3110.c b/drivers/serial/max3110.c > new file mode 100644 > index 0000000..9b39914 > --- /dev/null > +++ b/drivers/serial/max3110.c > @@ -0,0 +1,892 @@ > +/* > + * max3110.c - spi uart protocol driver for Maxim 3110 > + * > + * Copyright (c) 2009, Intel Corporation. > + * > + * This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it > + * under the terms and conditions of the GNU General Public License, > + * version 2, as published by the Free Software Foundation. > + * > + * This program is distributed in the hope it will be useful, but WITHOUT > + * ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or > + * FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

To start, it limits the driver to only ever being able to handle a single instance of the device. Some drivers use a fixed size table instead, but that isn't any better either. Instead of relying on a global variable, store the struct uart_max3110 pointer inside the spi_device.dev.p private data pointer. For the console portion use the struct console.data pointer. > + > +static int use_irq = 1; > +module_param(use_irq, int, 0444); > +MODULE_PARM_DESC(use_irq, "Whether using Max3110's IRQ capability"); Why is this a module param? Shouldn't this be determined on whether or not the drivers pdata structure is populated with an irq number? g. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-serial" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
