[PATCH RFC 4/6] staging: most: move core files out of the staging area

Christian Gromm christian.gromm at microchip.com
Mon Nov 25 15:51:34 UTC 2019


This patch moves the core module to the /drivers/most directory
and makes all necessary changes in order to not break the build.

+	  Say Y here if you want to enable MOST support.
+	  This driver needs at least one additional component to enable the
+	  desired access from userspace (e.g. character devices) and one that
+	  matches the network controller's hardware interface (e.g. USB).
+
+	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
+	  module will be called most_core.
+
+	  If in doubt, say N here.

- *   interface instance. May be zero if the instance of the interface is not
- *   configurable. Parameter channel_config describes direction and data
- *   type for the channel, configured by the higher level. The content of

+ *   interface instance. May be zero if the instance of the interface is not
+ *   configurable. Parameter channel_config describes direction and data
+ *   type for the channel, configured by the higher level. The content of
