GUIDANCE NEEDED: This patch puts the module at proposed location. Please provide your guidance if there is a better location within the linux tree for this module. This module has been isolated from the brcm80211 driver currently located in staging and provided to other drivers for chipsets using the AMBA AXI on-chip interconnect with ARM Device Management Plugin (DMP) silicon IP, which provides system discovery (chip being the system) and basic core function (disable, reset, etc.). The module has previously been posted on the linux-wireless list and comments by Randy Dunlap have been taken in. Also the SubmitChecklist has been followed. Arend van Spriel (1): drivers: brcmaxi: provide amba axi functionality in separate module drivers/Kconfig | 2 + drivers/Makefile | 1 + drivers/brcmaxi/Kconfig | 23 ++
I thought this was going under drivers/staging/ What changed your mind? What other drivers are going to use this, I thought the current broadcom drivers in drivers/net/wireless were not going to need this. thanks, greg k-h
