I don't care that this proposal only works for "real" GPIOs, and doesn't provide for a userspace API. At its worst, this proposal offers an intermediate step towards a framework that can do both synchronous/real and asynchronous GPIO control. At its best, provides a starting point for that framework AND a much-needed unification in an API that could really use cleaning up TODAY. No downside, in my opinion. b.g. -- Bill Gatliff bgat@billgatliff.com - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
