It would be nice to see a controller driver at least. I'm a bit more relaxed about seeing client drivers, while obviously it would be good to see them for most applications there's quite a bit of framework work to be done in order to implement them usefully (and not just at the bus level) - we need to cope with streaming data and some fun system designs as well. Getting the core bus in will help reduce the out of tree diff which should help people collaborate on those extra bits of work, as an out of tree patch stack Slimbus support gets too large. Having this work all happening out of tree (and mostly in vendor kernels as a result) has been causing issues for everyone trying to work on this, let's try to pull people into working on mainline as much as we can. --C01fF7hLGvN0zd9s Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJVfraQAAoJECTWi3JdVIfQ7jQH/iu15vWp5mVjHJNgDOtZMBCD KMSGSFCzGvt6XzkhzYfnwejq6im1ERovxK5SVuXBQgyBtfN/s801Ka59xh+dThtK 7+np0fSqpYoRpoy3TLrg3eA+u16NwWsvSq4+avDYVQjLzxy5fmveDamZgrI9u1dR SFGeOP7HVT5v5yzRWBCyIHXK8Hx5691LRua4i3XohdSlIbcQOhG8JrtktIcMAE/z 10lK89hcUTj7lWO6QonnaXYmc0sKfq8esYof3aOsBb19B8Bju76auG7nJ/7wGM8X zZzu28vbG8/1CzFZ/icT2sgSCGX5i5KEW+OheNHtM/VYpBRK+0qmXEt9Bn91/ow= =H0s2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --C01fF7hLGvN0zd9s--
