What about you getting all the review & testing done and then we (Xilinx) will add the OF support to the driver? I doubt the powerpc mainline will take the driver without OF support. In fact, we had to remove the platform bus support from the last driver that we put into mainline for arch/powerpc.
That is perfectly fine with me. i will try to pull the xilinx git tree and see how much closer I can make the probe so that converting will be easier.
xilinx_lltemac is the preferred. I don't think using xilinx_lltemac should cause problems. Our Xilinx Git tree has a xilinx_lltemac subdir that contains the non-flat driver but that should be ok with your xilinx_lltemac.c file in the net directory.
The next patch incarnation will have everything as xilinx_lltemac - including the file as xilinx_lltemac.c -- Dave Lynch DLA Systems Software Development: Embedded Linux 717.627.3770 dhlii@dlasys.net http://www.dlasys.net fax: 1.253.369.9244 Cell: 1.717.587.7774 Over 25 years' experience in platforms, languages, and technologies too numerous to list.
