I have already running the SPI->USB stuff on a DS80C411 (Network 8051) and DS89C450 (Ultra High-Speed 8051) and now I am trying to get it running under Linux... But for this I have some problems... The MAX3421E is an OHCI type and now I was looking into the drivers/spi/ and drivers/usb/host/ directories (and its documentation) but since this is a SPI->USB bridge, I do not know where to start. In the 8051 I have a compact infrastructure, but I assume, this is not acceptable for Linux. As I have seen already from other modules, I have to glue some parts togehter but I have no clue which and how. (I am usualy developing "normal" applications and not Kernel stuff) Any Hints/Tips welcome.
