I would request that you take a look at our current GE driver (msp85x0_ge.c)
for the Sequoia platform and send us your feedback. This is currently
available on our ftp site ftp.pmc-sierra.com under
/pub/linux/2.6.12/linux-2.6.12-rc3_L002.tar.gz. The driver has been completely
re-written and we welcome any feedback on the same.
The patches that have been generated for fixes that were made after this
release are available under /pub/linux/2.6.12/patches-2.6.12-rc3_L002.
We are in the process of generating a patch for the Sequoia platform (for the
MSP85x0) to be submitted to Linux/MIPS. Note that we will be having a separate
GE driver for the MSP85x0, while the old Titan GE driver (titan_ge.c) would
support the Titan (RM912x) chip on the Yosemite platform. FYI, the MSP85x0 is
the new name for the RM915x device.
