I developed the device drivers for Linux kernel 2.6.33-1.
This time, I added the following drivers
- GbE device
- Packet HUB device
Would you check them?
The patch is uploaded to our WEB site in Sourceforge.net,
Because the patch size was large.
[Our WEB site in Sourceforge.net.]
http://sourceforge.net/projects/generalembedded/files/
"All Files" -> "Downloads" -> "Dev" -> "kernel 2.6.33-1"
- pch_gbe.patch (for GbE device)
- pch_phub.patch (for Packet HUB device)
[About our development product]
Topcliff is a chip that has many peripherals.
The chip has UART, I2C, SPI, IEEE1588, CAN, Packet HUB, SATA, USB host, USB
device, SDIO, Gigabit Ethernet, GPIO and DMA.

Thanks for making your code available. May I suggest, though, that you
will get a much better response if you post the patches directly to the
mailing list? That is how our process works; it is simply harder to
review code if you have to do digging through web sites to find it.
Networking-specific patches should be posted to the netdev list as well.
More information on how to post code for review can be found in the
kernel source tree:
Documentation/HOWTO
Documentation/development-process
Thanks,
jon
Hi jon,
Thanks for your suggestion again.
I joined the netdev and send my patch to "netdev <[email protected]>".

Hello netdev users,
I developed the device drivers for Linux kernel 2.6.33-1.
This time, I added the following drivers
- GbE device
- Packet HUB device
The GbE and Packet Hub device drivers are related with each other.
Because I send patch to LKML <[email protected]> and the netdev
<[email protected]> mailing list.
Would you check them?

Patches must be sent directly to the list for review, with few
exceptions.
The size limit for the list is 100 K. Given that none of your source
files are this larger, you should be able to split pch_gbe.patch into 3
or more groups of source files, each within this limit. The changes to
drivers/net/Kconfig and drivers/net/Makefile should be in the last part.
Ben.
