create drivers/platform/x86/ from drivers/misc/ Move x86 platform specific drivers from drivers/misc/ to a new home under drivers/platform/x86/. The community has been maintaining x86 vendor-specific platform specific drivers under /drivers/misc/ for a few years. The oldest ones started life under drivers/acpi. They moved out of drivers/acpi/ because they don't actually implement the ACPI specification, but either simply use ACPI, or implement vendor-specific ACPI extensions. In the future we anticipate... drivers/misc/ will go away. other architectures will create drivers/platform/<arch> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> 2008-12-01 00:09:47 -05:00




Platform: OLPC: add a stub to drivers/platform/ for the OLPC EC driver The OLPC EC driver has outgrown arch/x86/platform/. It's time to both share common code amongst different architectures, as well as move it out of arch/x86/. The XO-1.75 is ARM-based, and the EC driver shares a lot of code with the x86 code.

goldfish: add the goldfish virtual bus This imports the current Google code and cleans it up slightly to use pr_ and to properly request its resources. Goldfish is an emulator used for Android development. It has a virtual bus where the emulator passes platform device information to the guest which then creates the appropriate devices. This part of the emulation is not architecture specific so should not be hiding in architecture trees as it does in the Google Android tree. The constants it uses do depend on the platform and the platform creates the bus device which then talks to the emulator to ascertain the actual devices present.

platform: add chrome platform directory It makes sense to split out the Chromebook/Chromebox hardware platform drivers to a separate subdirectory, since some of it will be shared between ARM and x86. This moves over the existing chromeos_laptop driver without making any other changes, and adds appropriate Kconfig entries for the new directory. It also adds a MAINTAINERS entry for the new subdir.
