Hi all,
despite having problems with zlib, I'd like to know which
device drivers for the XUPV2P have already been ported
to the 2.6 kernel? - I don't want to do work twice ;-).

For practicing, I just ported the original Xilinx ENET 100MBit
driver (seems to work in FIFO mode, including MII - At least I
can mount and use a NFS root file system)...but that has probably
already been done elsewhere. I saw that work is going on for 
the SystemACE. - So what about VGA, AC97, PS/2, SATA?

Best regards
Benjamin Heyne

Hi Benjamin,
    I had ported the ENET driver but it was a bit buggy. Could you send 
me your driver patch so I can test it?

Thanks,

Thanks Benjamin,

I'd like to have your 10/100 MB xenet patch as well.  I happen to be
working on this same driver this week.

Hi,
I have put all necessary files into an archive. I have implemented
the driver into a patched version of the 2.6.18-rc3 kernel, so
I thought it would be the best to provide all modified files in an
archive (also, I am not familiar with generating patches and stuff... ;-).
Please feel free to provide a "real" patch.

Ok, here we go:

http://www.dt.e-technik.uni-dortmund.de/mitarbeiter/heyne/xilinx/xilinx_emac_26.zip

Be warned:
This driver probably can be considered as BadHack(TM) -
It's the first one I am providing to the public. So if
you have any suggestions for improving it, please tell me.

TODO (As far as I can tell):
	- Make it a real platform device
	- Make use of the XILINX_EDK config of the TEMAC driver patch
	  (Btw.: Will this be officially integrated into the kernel?).

Any feedback will be appreciated...

Best regards
