If you're referring to naming the new directory "data", that's just a suggestion. Another possibility is to simply put it in the toplevel directory.

There is nothing magic about it. It's subject to the review process just like any other file in the repository. BTW, if you put the file outside of the amdgpu directory, you should send the patch to the dri-devel mailing list for review as well. > It shall be your preference to decide how much time you would like to > spend in auditing the names :) It shouldn't take as much time as we've spent talking about it in this thread. :} -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://www.amd.com Libre software enthusiast | Mesa and X developer
