Yes, but since no generic abstraction exists today, this is going to be a longer term effort anyway, and so it shouldn't block reintroduction of this driver. > Then again, the driver is fairly well tested and seems to work OK, so > if someone was to resubmit the final version from > https://git.linaro.org/uefi/OpenPlatformPkg.git, reworked for > edk2-platforms, I might just go along with it. > OK, so taking the existing code and making it build in edk2-platforms is not going to be a huge amount of work, and I'm happy to look into that, provided that there is a point to doing so. Robin brought this up so I assume he has an interest in this. Thomas, Alan, could you comment as well, please? Also, who is in charge of providing firmware updates to ARM Juno updates these days, now that the Linaro ARM landing team is no longer in charge of that? -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
