I've driver which essentially turns lucents winmodem into soundcard. So - hardware interface was guessed and "only" remaining part is doing v34 in software. See discuss@linmodems.org archives for details. Now, question is where should it go. That winmodem uses interrupts so little that it can be nicely done using polling+userspace with zero performance lost. Still it is device driver. Should it go into kernel? [Well, drivers/sound/modem would be cool :-)] Then, there's v34 stack. It is not written yet, but it will eventually get written. It needs sort of realtime guarantees. Should it go into kernel?
