Hi, i am currently having a couple of problems with the esp driver. I am trying to get the "dec_esp.c" to work with multiple PMAZ-AA cards which itself seems to be a bit tricky. Most of the esp implementation rely on the fact that there is only one controller existant as they fake the dma by storing informations in globals vars on dma_init and get them again on dma_irq_exit or dma_drain.
I dont like the idea of global vars as this doesnt work with 2 or 3 PMAZ-AA possibly fitting into the Decstations.
Is there any way of storing arbitrary esp specific informations in the esp struct - esp->slot seems to be not used by the framework but its of type int and as that not very extensible to a couple of pointers a length and direction.
