Thanks to both for the Reply. How about the remaining questions, Do you people have any idea of those i.e.
2) which device name should i use in my UART driver? and how should I select the device name? 4) should I do any changes in Device Tree to create my new driver? 5) should I use DMA allways with UART driver? 6) How should my driver access the hardware data, i.e. for example in case of receive data, how this will access the Receive Buffer data?
