If it's uapi_name, then why do we need a new one for every generation? Userspace drivers tend to span a lot more than just 1 generation. And if you want to have per-generation data from the kernel to userspace, then imo that's much better suited in some amdgpu ioctl, instead of trying to encode that into the driver name. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation +41 (0) 79 365 57 48 - http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
