Subject: Re: [RFC] rpmsg: virtio rpmsg: Add RPMsg char driver support

Hi Wendy,

Few remarks on your patch.

Would be nice to simplify the review if patch was split in several
patches (for instance per feature introduced).

Here, I think you break the possibility to instantiate several times the
same service .
For instance, today if you have 2 communications in parallel:
Core1_Aplli1  <-- "foo" service --> core2_appli1
Core1_Aplli2  <-- "foo" service --> core2_appli2

2 ways to do it:
1) one service and 4 endpoints
=> issue it to know the destination address.
2) 2 instances of the same service with default endpoint.

I also tried to use this char device to expose rpmsg service for
application.
Issue with this device (from my point of view) is that it has to be
relied on a kernel rpmsg device.
I suppose that your need is to expose RMPSG to userland without creating
a platform driver.
In this case perhaps an alternative could be to move this part in
rmpsg_char to allow to probe it in standalone...
