Hi Ho.

Do you have an idea when ?

I guess if we're saying the simple patch which works right now - should be
rejected in favour of alternative code coming - then at a minimum could you
please give an indication of when that alternative code will be available ?

Otherwise I think it makes sense to enable the hardware now - using the
bog-standard means of doing that - just like BYT and others :)

Make sense. I go with Hekki's direction.


Great.

So Hekki, are OK with the suggested path here then ? I think myself and Ho are pretty much in agreement.

Apply the patch I've submitted to 8250_pci.c - and then do whatever mods are appropriate later to enable whatever you're doing quark_8250.c.

I think, it'd be a win from a Galileo enabling point of view.


Best,
Bryan
