A reference platform which peple can look at to find out what the software architecture is supposed to be, in the near total absense of documentation for said software architecture makes a lot of sense. > I'm not upset at you for not using, I'm "upset" at you for not wanting >to make the effort to implement them. Some are hard, some are easy. FreeBSD is a hobby for me these days, that implied a certain amount of enjoyment and limited time. Trying to guess what software architecture you want to be written, based on the non-existent documentation and with no reference-platform to look at, and then implementing it on a SOC where the hardware documentation spans the gamut from from missing over mangled to misleading, does not qualify as "enjoyment" for me and it certainly is not something I have time for. > What's funny though is that even with a pinctrl and clock management, >we still don't have what is necessary to implement what you want >(kldloading a driver and directly use pwm).

Who exactly are "We" ? You indicated that you are not going to do it. I can't because I don't know what it is that I am supposed to write. Nobody else seems to be inclined to do it either. So RPi as a platform is just in limbo forever ? And where does this "Spanish Inquisition" road end? Why are gpio and spi allowed to exist on the RPi platform? Or is your next demand going to be that they also be removed pending a hypothetical pinctrl driver ? > I think we are both adults (not sure for me or if I want to be one but >let's pretend that I am), so let me ask you one more time to backout >your commit and let's work together to extend arm support toward what >you want to do. Empathetically NO! (But feel free to ask me again, if my driver ever in any way prevents you from committing your changes to the RPi platform.)
