I am contemplating moving from 3.8.x to 3.13.x kernels due to the apparent improvement in USB support. I am confused, however, as to the state of device trees/overlays and their relationship with capes.

It appears to me that 3.8.x kernels use device tree overlays managed by an internal kernel cape manager, whereas 3.13.x kernels handle capes using Robert Nelson's "Really Simple Cape Manager" to patch and recompile the base BBB device tree.

My questions are:

a) Are the above assumptions correct?
b) Will the 3.8.x cape manager be ported to 3.13.x kernel or is RCN's rscm here to stay.
c) Any other pointers?

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,

Dave.
