regarding xilinx system ace in linux-2.6

[rahul]

Hi All,

I would like to know if anyone in the group or otherwise is/was using 
Xilinx's
System ACE MPU interface to read/write to Compact Flash card on their
 hardware ? I see that there is a device driver provided by Xilinx for 
system
ace mpu bus in the linux 2.6. I came to know the code is implemented in 
linux-2.4
 but i want to have it in linux-2.6

It will be nice to follow someone's footsteps if it has already been 
implemented before.
 Else, please direct me to appropriate resources about how to go about 
using it in my design.

Thanks
Rahul

Last I heard was that Xilinx was working on the linux 2.6
implementation.  

You should contact your Xilinx representative to find out the current
status of that effort and/or where you can get the source code.

Hi,

Xilinx has contracted MontaVista to create an LSP for the ML40x
development boards for MVL Pro 4.0 (which uses the 2.6.10 kernel). This
work is nearing completion. We (Xilinx) have also asked MontaVista to
make those drivers available via open source, and MontaVista has agreed
to this.

The LSP is anticipated to be available sometime before the end of this
month. I'm not sure when the drivers will be made available to open
source.

Hope this helps,

- John
