Did you > replace attributes with size? Well, not really. The patch I provided is a sketch only of what I want done. It compiles and works on the 53c700 which is where I tested it. Really, I just want transport and core separated and transport attributes to be fixed (so there's some way of defining a transport private API for updating them). Even with just offset and period as the transport attributes for SPI, that gives enough to move domain validation out of all the drivers into the SPI transport layer. > Also, Martin is on vacation this week, I believe, so he probably > won't respond until next week. Yes, I know, It's just that I've been promising to look at this for weeks, so I didn't want to delay any further. James
