Hello All,
The Linux Kernel Wish List contains the following item:
Java or Forth interpreter in kernel for device drivers. This lets vendors write binary drivers that will work for Intel, Alpha, and whatever else uses the same bus. An interpreted driver without source code is better than no driver at all.
A few questions on this then:
1) Is this a serious wish? 2) If so, has any work been put into it at all? What is the progress?
Thanks to all,
Ben --- perl -wle '$_ = 1; (1 x $_) !~ /^(11+)\1+$/ && print while $_++'
