Subject[PATCH 0/2] staging: comedi: per-file read/write subdevice choice
Date
This series of patches adds a couple of ioctl codes to the Comedi core
to allow the current "read" and "write" subdevice to be changed after
opening the comedi device. The current read and write subdevice
information is stored in file private data allocated for the lifetime of
the file object, so the notion of current "read" and "write" subdevice
is local to the file object and does not alter anything in the main
control structure for the comedi device. An extra level of indirection
is now required to access the main control structure.

I've tested the multiple "read" subdevice case using a modified version
of the "comedi_test" module (modifying it to clone the existing AI
subdevice), and a modified version of the "comedi_test" application
(part of the "comedilib" installation) modified to use the new ioctls.
There isn't any support in comedilib itself yet.

1) staging: comedi: prepare support for per-file read and write
subdevices
2) staging: comedi: add ioctls to set per-file read and write subdevice
