Hi all,

I am going to attempt to write a driver to access the SSP port in the
EP9301 processor. If anyone has example code or information that might
help me to write this driver I would greatly appreciate the help. I
have not written drivers before so any help would be welcome. I also do
not understand how to put the driver into the kernel. Do I have to
rebuild the kernel each time I want to edit the code? Or can I put the
driver in the kernel with out rebuilding it?

Thank you in advance,

Brad
