Hi, >Yes, I know that and I explicitly mentioned that. I had to get this chip working >somehow and I had to begin somewhere. The pn533 driver is really very hard >to understand with it's massive use of nested callbacks, workqueues and >usb urbs. So I took the approach to try to understand what happens while modifying >and would then later factor out what both drivers have in common. >The other way is understanding the code first and then decide what would be needed for > both chips, factor that out and then write the pn532 uart specific stuff.

It took me some time to understand this too. Now, it's even harder after adding protocol ops, but still is pretty well layered. > I suggest to separate transport layer from the core in pn533 and add > support for uart and usb separately.
