Well, definitely yes. The driver isn't 100% finished, but it mostly works. One significant downside is the kernel version i had to port it to: 4.19. IIRC there is API change so my current patches can't be applied to 5.x kernels. Also, i could not finish the upstreaming as the customer device i worked on had to be returned. However, given access to Altera TSE capable device (which i don't have atm), running a recent kernel, i'll gladly finish the upstreaming. cheers, Petko
