Ok, I haven't seen that. One question is if we need to support multiple
interface versions or just the latest one. I would say only the latest
one (for each platform) and so I915_CSR_SKL should be this latest
firmware image filename, in this case i915/skl_dmc_ver4.bin.
Yup, I think just supporting the latest one in the driver is what we
want. The filename versioning is there so different kernel versions,
supporting different interfaces, can all boot with the same userspace,
each kernel loading the appropriate firmware.
Can we have a symbolic link which can be hardcoded in intel_csr.c
and option will be given to user during installing the firmware
to create a symbolic link for the firmware wanted to load.
Want to avoid version number mentioned in firmware file name as it
getting change with latest fixes, bot not any API/inteface changes.
Agree as bxt and skl both are gen9 we can name as skl_dmc_gen9.bin
for now and discussion is going to finalize the name. Is it ok?
