Having ddwrt like distro is good but does it worth to all that reverse engineering or do we have enough developer power for the job?
but if you rewrite the samdrv.ko you get just an interface from hardware <-> exeDSP and not from hardware <-> linux. so you need also to port all aplications to this "exeDSP" interface you like to use (dvbtools x server...).doctorzoidberg wrote:I think that reversing samdrv.ko is the first thing to do. Having an open source driver that works with the original exeDSP binary would be a good starting point.
About exeDSP, I know that disassembling a huge executable is a hard job, but...do we _need_ to reverse all that code? I don't think so, the only important part is the hardware access, the user interface can be completely skipped.
IMHO it's worth a try, even if we don't have enough "developer power" to finish the job. If we show the world that our job is valuable, I'm pretty sure that willing developers will join the project.
