Gah, I feel I already complained at Intel for cramming their own private char devices into subsystems! *subsystems* define the user API, not random drivers in them. uacce is a reasonable place to put something like this if there isn't a multi-driver standard If this is the plan we should block of the char dev under CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL or something to discourage people using the uAPI we are planning to delete Jason
