X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b9db44784723625a331a2c9139774d1202ebad24;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git Merge tag 'nfc-next-3.11-1' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/sameo/nfc-next Samuel Ortiz says: "These are the pending NFC patches for the 3.11 merge window. It contains the pending fixes that were on nfc-fixes (nfc-fixes-3.10-2), along with a few more for the pn544 and pn533 drivers, the LLCP disconnection path and an LLCP memory leak. Highlights for this one are: - An initial secure element API. NFC chipsets can carry an embedded secure element or get access to the SIM one. In both cases they control the secure elements and this API provides a way to discover, enable and disable the available SEs. It also exports that to userspace in order for SE focused middleware to actually do something with them (e.g. payments). - NCI over SPI support. SPI is the most complex NCI specified transport layer and we now have support for it in the kernel. The next step will be to implement drivers for NCI chipsets using this transport like e.g. bcm2079x. - NFC p2p hardware simulation driver. We now have an nfcsim driver that is mostly a loopback device between 2 NFC interfaces. It also implements the rest of the NFC core API like polling and target detection. This driver, with neard running on top of it, allows us to completely test the LLCP, SNEP and Handover implementation without physical hardware. - A Firmware update netlink API. Most (All ?) HCI chipsets have a special firmware update mode where applications can push a new firmware that will be flashed. We now have a netlink API for providing that mode to e.g. nfctool."
