I'm about to implement downloading the microcode for the talisman
MPEG decoder rather than relying on it being in an EPROM on the card.
I'm looking for any guidance, examples, etc, on a right way to do
this.
I could
include the microcode as a giant static array in the device driver 8-(
download the microcode via a write to a special device
download the microcode via an set of ioctls.
do a mixture of the above.
Use something I haven't thought of, but you have.
Any pointers would be appreciated.
