I've actually got a better driver which exports an API for doing local plus bus FIFO transfers. It's been posted to the mailing list a couple of times. I'll cc: you the next time I post it (real soon now).

Thanks a lot, that will be really helpful! :-)

Bestcomm can do that, but Freescale has not publically released the bestcomm documentation, and they do not support writing custom bestcomm tasks. From what I understand there are a number of hidden bugs in the bestcomm engine which you could run into if you deviate from the provided tasks. You're very much on your own if you go down that route. :-(

I see - that's a pity, shifting those tasks to a "coprocessor" sounds like an attractive idea!

BTW, I didn't forget about the 5200 GPT/WDT issue, I just didn't have the time yet to implement it. The old work vs. what I would like to do conflict, but I will try to find a reasonable solution.

Thanks, Albrecht.
