Hi, Thanks a lot for all your comments. You will find in the next mails a new version of the BCM947xx patches which include fixes for your comments. The big changes concerns the serial driver which now uses a platform driver for the configuration. This fixes the case where CONFIG_SERIAL_8250=m. Given the current mess wrt SSB patches, I don't ask them to be merged now, but if would be nice if you can review them. Thanks. Regards, Aurelien The following series of patches add basic support for the BCM947xx CPUs. CFE support still needs work and thus is not included in those patches, so the command line has to be included in the kernel. Everything else is fully functional and the resulting kernel works fine on a Netgear WGT634U. Patch #1: MIPS: Detect BCM947xx CPUs Patch #2: MIPS: BCM947xx support Patch #3: MIPS: Add BCM947XX to Kconfig Patch #4: MIPS: Add BCM947xx to Makefile Cc: Michael Buesch <mb@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Felix Fietkau <nbd@xxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Florian Schirmer <jolt@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Aurelien Jarno <aurelien@xxxxxxxxxxx> -- .''`.
