Hello Madalin, Thank you very much for this summary that helps keeping an overview on the current Freescale mainline DPAA effort (by the way, I am also very pleased to see these patches getting to the mailing-lists, this is very important to us). Now I would like to give all this a try on our P2041 board, the kmcoge4 for which there is a DT in mainline. Could you please tell me on what kernel branch these patches are based on ? Best Regards Valentin _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
