Hi all,

The idea is ultimately to create mainly streaming interfaces toward 
hardware, i.e. AXI4S, the amount of streaming interfaces parameterized 
and usable from a device driver in linux.
You can maybe imagine that it becomes conveniently feasible to use 
hardware accelerators and, for instance, use them from GNU-Radio.
I haven't found that much, except maybe 'xillybus' which seems like a 
solution.
I'm using Qsys as well, but indeed as Chris mentioned, not easily 
parameterized and missing the IP to go streaming.

Maybe others have been looking into such architectural setup, I expect 
at least that I'm not unique in realizing something like this.

Regards,
Jos
