So if you need support for host mode, then I'm afraid it won't do. BTW, you never responded to Greg's comment about signing off patches anonymously. You say you have permission to release the Synopsys driver, but how can we be sure of that if you don't identify yourself? -- Paul > On Wed, Apr 18, 2012 at 10:28 AM, Felipe Balbi <balbi@xxxxxx> wrote: > > Hi, > > > > On Tue, Apr 17, 2012 at 04:57:10PM +0200, Domenico Andreoli wrote: > >> On Tue, Apr 17, 2012 at 06:47:51AM -0700, Greg KH wrote: > >> > On Tue, Apr 17, 2012 at 12:40:41PM +0100, popcorn mix wrote: > >> > > dwc_otg driver came from synopsys (html files included).
