Hi Slark,

Happy to hear that your question about T8xx.
Yes, MediaTek will release T8xx platform, and will upstream T8xx driver.
For T8xx, we proposed to upstream a new driver since there are some hardware changes.
About the draft planning, the 1st submission for review should happen in end of this year~

Hi all,
   As far as I know, MediaTek would release T8xx in the coming days. 
   In the latest kernel, we have supportted MediaTek platform with name t7xxx.
  So I want to know how should we extend the support for t8xx device? Use the same driver t7xx for current t7xx device or we will add a new driver for that?
  For QC chip or Intel chip, I saw they shared a same driver for different platform, such as QC sdx24, sdx55, sd65. I hope MediaTek may also use its vendor name or something else other than a product or serial name as it's driver name.
   So what's the planning of MediaTek?
