I have an almost working FIFO TEMAC driver. It is similarly based.
it started out based on the Trek webserver sample
I spent probably 3-4 days de-EDKing it into something that fit into a
single source and was closer to ko norms.
It is based on approximately the EDK 8.1 stuff. You are welcome to it,
if it could be helpful in anyway.
I am all for getting an acceptable driver into the ko tree.
