Hello, I have written a driver for the Zarlink ZL30143 DPLL. It would typically be used in an embedded system as part of Sync-E support. The device is accessed via an I2C interface. In general the driver just exports register read/write functions, but I have also added some ioctl's to get/set various settings that require multiple register writes (e.g. selecting references, setting up priorities) and interrupt support.
I can't find any similar drivers, but I can see that most of the configuration for this device could just be done using i2c-tools in user space. I would imagine there are too many generic I2C devices to include a separate driver for each of them in the kernel. Is there any point submitting a patch for this? In what system would this kind of device belong? Kind regards, Austin ....................................................................
