[PATCH RFC] [media] Postpone the addition of MEDIA_IOC_G_TOPOLOGY

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



There are a few discussions left with regards to this ioctl:

1) the name of the new structs will contain _v2_ on it?
2) what's the best alternative to avoid compat32 issues?

Due to that, let's postpone the addition of this new ioctl to
the next Kernel version, to give people more time to discuss it.
