I'm still leaning towards doing this in userspace instead -- once we have a userspace binary that can do this I don't think there'll be any reason to keep a debugfs interface for the same thing around, and that tells me that we should just avoid merging the debugfs interface and move to userspace straight away. I'm hoping to get the userspace tools repository running soon. Thanks, - Chris. -- Chris Ball One Laptop Per Child
