The active serial protocol can be used to program Altera serial configuration
devices. This driver uses the kernel gpio interface to implement the active
serial protocol.

This patch also introduces the include/platform_drivers/ directory, which is
the new home for platform data headers. This is per Greg's suggestion.


Hi Alex,

Altera EPCS is normal SPI serial flash, which is exactly the same as STmicro part. Please consider existing drivers/mtd/devices/m25p80.c and drivers/spi/spi_gpio.c.

Best regards,
Thomas
