No, that's a different problem - the context you describe just happens to be your use case but it's in no way universal, there are plenty of expansion boards out there that have devices that use real drivers connected to them normally (and some of those could even be used in the educational contexts you describe). I think the underlying need here is either for a better way of registering things or better tooling around device tree overlays to address the usability issues. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "linux-sunxi" group.
