Hi,

I have port android on freescale hardware.

My hardware supports the IPU.

How to add IPU device?

I am getting IPU device open failed error.

/dev/mxc_ipu is not available, how to add?

Hello,Paul,

Freescale doesn't have android BSP for i.mx35, so you will have to do porting android to your platform. Now, Could you tell me some information about your project ?

(1)Linux kernel version you are using.

(2)If it is possible, Would you like to share BSP file with me ? Let me see it.

BSP file should be linux/arch/arm/mach-mx3/....., I need yours . Send it to me : weidong.sun@freescale.com

Probably, I can give you some advice.

Regards,

Weidong
