Are you planning on supporting 194 better than 186? That never > really made it to a useful level upstream I think? :( I think we have pretty decent upstream support for Tegra186 at this point. It took a little time because Tegra186 was a little work than many previous chips because the changes were less incremental than before. Generally our goal is to provide at least feature parity with prior chips for each new chip. Usually we manage to incrementally add new features, too. Perhaps the reason why it seems that Tegra186 is not well supported upstream is because a lot of things have moved into BPMP firmware, which deals with a lot of the nitty gritty details that prior chips needed a driver for. That said, I may be missing something. Do you have any specific features in mind that aren't working upstream on Tegra186? Tegra194 uses the same firmware as Tegra186 (well, a binary compatible interface to the firmware, I should say), so we've been able to bootstrap it much quicker than prior chips. That said, there are a slew of new features in Tegra194, not all of which are easy to upstream. But we're still aiming for at least feature parity with prior chips and get as much of the new hardware supported as we can. Thierry
