From: Nitin Shah on 26 Feb 2010 08:00 Hi, We have developed Touch Screen (TSI) Drivers for Dialog da9052 Power Management IC. We have tested this driver on Samsung SMDK-6410 board. If any one needs test application tor testing this driver, we will provide the same which we have used for testing. For more details about the attached drives please refer the README file inside "da9052_drivers.zip". We would like to incorporate this driver into Linux mainline kernel. Please test the driver and provide your valuable comments and feedback. Thanks & Regards, Nitin Shah

Please take a look at the guidance on Submitting patches in the Documentation directory of the linux kernel source tree. To get more eyes on code you need to make it as simple as possible for people to take a look! To move this driver set towards merging, take a look at how the other da90xx chips are handled in the current kernel. Given the chips have a lot of different functionality fitting into numerous corners of the kernel, that a given user may or may not want to use, they are implemented as multifunction devices (drivers/mfd) with children in a number of other subsystems. Whilst the code you have sent is pretty clear and well commented etc, it is going to need a lot of changes to interface with the relevant kernel subsystems. Perhaps this is one for staging? I've cc'd in a few other relevant people to bring it to their attention. Note all, while the email only mentioned touch screen drivers, this a pretty comprehensive pmic driver with tsi, adc, gpio, regulator control and various other bits and bobs.

Please don't send .zip files. It would be nice if you can send inline patches to linux-input ML. Please refer Documentation directory for instructions on submitting patches. -- ---Trilok Soni http://triloksoni.wordpress.com http://www.linkedin.com/in/triloksoni -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo(a)vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

I'll take anything for staging, it just has to build and be self-contained and have someone who is working on getting it merged to the main kernel tree. thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo(a)vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ |
