Hello Rbairva, Which JPEG decoder are you working on?? I have Synopsys JPEG Decoder/Encoder on ST SPEAr platform and i am currently working on its driver for LKML. I already have a driver for it which is not aligned to LKML guidelines, and so doing modifications there. In my driver i have used char device framework and none other suits it well. viresh. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
