Before I start spending time on the MTHCA driver, I'd like to
understand what kind of changes you will accept, and what kind are
just a waste of my time in putting them together.
How much are you planning on keeping this code a straight copy from
the Linux project? Will you take and apply Windows-specific patches
to make the code more streamlined and Windows oriented?
You have your own:
- time stamp abstraction (and ugly at that)
- spinlock abstraction
- wait_queue, semaphore, and mutex abstraction
- types
- memory abstraction
- pci bus abstraction
Is it even worth trying to clean this stuff up to make a proper
Windows driver out of it, or would I just be wasting my time?
