FWIW, the parts of the IXP400 Access Library relevant to ethernet (except the microcode which could be made into a binary blob for loading by the firmware loader) are available (from Intel) under the eCos variant of the GPL. The IXP400 Access Library is a complete horror. It'll need completely rewriting to even have a chance at getting into the kernel. The above mentioned bits for eCos/RedBoot would probably be a good starting point. David Vrabel ps. It's bad form to CC a subscription-only list. I've trimmed linux-arm-kernel from the CCs. -- David Vrabel, Design Engineer Arcom, Clifton Road Tel: +44 (0)1223 411200 ext. 3233 Cambridge CB1 7EA, UK Web: http://www.arcom.com/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
