Yes, the
"generic 5380" driver from Linux would likely be a good
starting point. It's a completely different driver structure of
course, but all the stuff about frobbing the chip would be very useful.
Be careful, though. The Linux driver is GPL'd, and thus
license-incompatible with the SYSV kernel. I imagine that the xBSD folks
probably have some sort of 5380 driver, and it might be better to use
that as the starting point.
