Okay, but then, how is the best way to ask for help ? In my case here, there're several things still unclear to me, eg: * struct uart_port -> mapbase: => seems to be used by most drivers, but some also clear it later, eg. uartlite does so when uart_add_one_port() call failed. is that really necessary ? * struct uart_port -> mapsize: => seems to be used only rarely. most drivers use either fixed params on the memory mapping functions, or take it from some function. wouldn't it be better if all would fill out that field and later use it consistently ? --mtx -- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult Free software and Linux embedded engineering info@xxxxxxxxx -- +49-151-27565287
