Hi!

9) Highly reconfigurable hardware - Julien Beraud - 44 sub-devices connected with an interconnect. - As long as formats match, any sub-device could be connected to any - other sub-device through a link. - The result is 44 * 44 links at worst. - A switch sub-device proposed as the solution to model the - interconnect. The sub-devices are connected to the switch - sub-devices through the hardware links that connect to the - interconnect. - The switch would be controlled through new IOCTLs S_ROUTING and - G_ROUTING. - Patches available: http://git.linuxtv.org/cgit.cgi/pinchartl/media.git/log/?h=xilinx-wip but the patches are from 2005. So I guess I'll need some guidance here...Yeah, that's where it began (2015?), but right now I can only suggest to wait until there's more. My estimate is within next couple of weeks / months. But it won't be years.
Ok, week or two would be ok, couple of months is not. And all I need is single hook in common structure. So if g_endpoint_config hook looks sane to _you_, I suggest we simply proceed. Now, maybe Mauro Carvalho Chehab [off-list ref] or Laurent or Julien will want a different solution, but then... they'll have to suggest something doable now, not in couple of months. Does that sound like a plan? Mauro added to cc list, so we can get some input.
