Hello developers,

I'm trying to find/combine/fix a driver for Synopsys' DesignWare USB
controller. This thing is USB 2.0 host/slave/otg capable and is used in
various SoCs including Amlogic 8726M, Ralink RT305x, and probably more.

Please see:

Ah, thanks. So sadly uncoordinated work in this area is quite common. However, in case of Synopsys the situation is even more disappointing because initially it _was_ a single driver! What probably lacked was some shared repository and proper communication between developers to stay in sync. Maybe there were also licensing issues at some point, though currently file headers contain rather reasonable (imho) permissive license from Synopsys.

I am not sure we can combine all Synopsys USB drivers to single file, but we

Synopsys driver which I examine consists of 16 files (each of 2 versions), 200k lines total. I've already perpared some few smaller files for version merging. So probably it is doable, but quite a lot of work, therefore I wouldn't like it to be wasted.

can try combine similar IP versions to one file, this work may need all Synopsys
USB IP driver maintainer work together.

Exactly. This is why I'm now trying to find all relevant people to begin with.

Thank you.
Nikolai.
