Subject: New PXA250 patch available: diff-2.5.59-rmk1-pxa1 - msg#00004
List: linux.ports.arm.announce
A new patch providing support for the Intel XScale-PXA2xx
architecture to the ARM Linux kernel as just been released.
The patch is available from:
ftp://source.mvista.com/pub/xscale/pxa/
ftp://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/pub/linux/arm/people/nico/
Build Documentation:
http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/docs/kerncomp.shtml
This patch is pretty much a work in progress to resynch the PXA support with
the 2.5.x kernel, and to give a chance for others to get involved with a
good reference to start with. Note that only the reference is good since
many things are still missing/broken. Notably:
- the frame buffer needs porting to the new fb API;
- the Lubbock PCMCIA support needs fixing, preferably using the comon
SA1111 PCMCIA support module;
- the MMC block driver needs updating with the new block interface;
- the UDA1400 touchscreen driver needs to be fixed;
- I2C not merged yet;
- cpufreq not merged yet;
- probably some other things that I forget.
Things that should work in this patch:
- MTD mad driver for PXA;
- serial ports and serial console;
- IRDA;
- UDA1400/AC97 audio (using the OSS interface for now);
- SMC91C96 on Lubbock;
Any help for missing parts is welcome. The frame buffer is one particular
driver I won't do.
Have fun!
Nicolas
