[MinnowBoard] GSOC'15 - Idea feedback - SMBus Kernel Support

[Subhashish Pradhan]

Hello,

I'm Subhashish Pradhan, a 3rd year CS undergrad from India. I am
interested in the following idea: "SMBus Kernel Support".

I see that this project requires C, some Linux driver and kernel
skills. I believe I have these skills thanks to my GSoC project with
GNU/Hurd last year and from writing
basic kernel modules for the Eudyptula Challenge.

Since this task is to be performed on the kernel source built on a
MinnowBoard, what could be some basic work that can be done to
demonstrate proficiency related to this project?

Any helpful directions/commments will be appreciated.

Cheers,
Subhashish
