Since we were thinking of making a possible port to the eCOS from our proprietary operating system I made the api so that they could be easily used with ecos operating system. I was planning to clean up the API's and post it online. We have tested the flash drivers on following flashes and they seems quite stable. - Alliance - AMD - Atmel - CSR/Fujitsu Flashes - EON - MXIC - SST Being new to eCOS Iam not really sure about the exact procedure for submitting a patch, But I'll be glad to share my code if you are interested. -vivek http://www.vivekkumar.net > -----Original Message----- > From: Andrew Lunn [mailto:andrew@lunn.ch] > Sent: Wednesday, August 04, 2004 1:12 PM > To: Doyle, Patrick > Cc: eCos Disuss > Subject: Re: [ECOS] Flash infrastructure rework > > > On Wed, Aug 04, 2004 at 04:06:49PM -0400, Doyle, Patrick wrote: > > > > Regardless, I might want to beta test it for you -- I have > > > > been working with a board that has two different FLASH > > > > devices on it.
