[PATCH][1/3] RapidIO support: core

From: Matt Porter <mporter@kernel.crashing.org>
Date: 2005-06-01 18:13:46

Adds a RapidIO subsystem to the kernel. RIO is a switched
fabric interconnect used in higher-end embedded applications.
The curious can look at the specs over at http://www.rapidio.org

The core code implements enumeration/discovery, management of
devices/resources, and interfaces for RIO drivers.

There's a lot more to do to take advantages of all the hardware
features. However, this should provide a good base for folks
with RIO hardware to start contributing.

Care to split it up into logical sections and post it?  It should be
small enough to do so that way.

thanks,

register_driver() does not return the number of devices bound to the
driver.  So your comment in rio_register_driver() is incorrect.  Just
return count.

Hm, if the patch was inline it would be easier to comment on stuff like
this, I'll wait till then for the rest :)

thanks,
