- Subject: [ECOS] Creating UART driver
Hello,
I want to write a driver for the EXAR XR16L788 8 channel UART, which is based on the 16C550 registers.
The UART is connected to my Atmel EB40A board.
I have found the generic 16x5x driver in packages/devs/serial/generic. I think I could modify it to fit for the XR16L788.
But how do I put the driver into the ecos tree the correct way? I didn't find anything very helpful in the docu or the maling list.
Is there something like a driver creation - sourcetree setup HOWTO?
Regards,
Dirk Eibach
