How would you like to do this? Don't you think, it would be good to allow both: either implement a dmaengine driver directly, exactly as all drivers are doing now, or use the additional helper library for suitable (simple) hardware types? I see it similar to I2C, where you either implement an I2C driver directly, or you use the bitbanging abstraction for simpler hardware.I think it would be good to have both, this can be used by folks who don't have sg support available.Ok, so, should I just rename the driver to sgsoft? Is this the only change, that you'd like to see?That would be one :) Also, I would review the other patch patches by today/tomorrow, you can add any changes in next version as well
Do I understand it right, that I'm waiting for your review before submitting the next version? Thanks Guennadi --- Guennadi Liakhovetski, Ph.D. Freelance Open-Source Software Developer http://www.open-technology.de/
