Well, the vendor is providing two drivers for his serial pci cards : mxser and mxupcie. The mxser driver has been cleaned up and integrated to mainline a long time ago (drivers/tty/mxser.c). I'm trying to do the same thing with the mxupcie driver. mxser and mxupcie are quite similar, maybe both should use 8250 infrastructure and not have independant drivers ? Mathieu

Might be. Though for new driver it would be much easier to do. After that someone might move the existing driver. -- With Best Regards, Andy Shevchenko
