I'm also in the process of porting the > uboot zynq_gem driver. First, \o/. I don't know how the two differ. But I would guess, that you can pretty much copy the lowlevel stuff et al. Only the DDR timing stuff may make problems. Second: No! Don't! I'm trying to get drivers/net/macb.c running on Zynq. As far as I can tell at the moment, this is a driver for a Cadence IP gem. And the zynq uses exactly that IP core. Alas, I have problems with the dma_alloc_coherent call in its probe function. The same goes for the UART driver and other cores. We should not start developing Xilinx drivers for everything, if in reality we have IP cores from other providers. The same goes for Linux. I haven't managed to boot mainline linux yet, but I saw that there are multiple bindings and drivers for Xilinx. And the TRM clearly states, that WDT, GEM, SPI, UART and TTC are all Cadence IP cores. > Do you have plans for submitting this to the list? Yes, definitely! I need to cleanup the patches a little and want to be sure that I didn't do anything stupidly wrong. The problem with dma_alloc is at least a hint, that I maybe did.
