For the driver reuse:

I read the User Guide of rearview platform, it seems that the MMIO should
set as the register Address in memory map. And the IRQs should be the
interrupt number + 32.

I know how to write LCD driver and framebuffer in native Linux System. But
for L4Linux, I still have some question. I am not sure how to reuse the
driver of Linux or rewrite the fb-drv.

Here is the situation:

The folder in arch/arm/mach-exynos has plenty code to initial the platform,
so I added config L4_PLATFORM_EXYNOS in arch/l4/Kconfig and
PLATFORMNAME-$(CONFIG_L4_PLATFORM_EXYNOS)  = exynos in arch/l4/Makefile.
However, when build the kernel, there is some error. It seems like the
L4Linux startup invoke some variables defined in Realview or Generic
platform like

NR_IRQS_HW. Is this rectifiable?

I found that there is l4fb.c as driver in driver/video, what's different
with the module in l4/pkg?

And last question, how to run the driver I want to use?

Thank you very much!
