I thought about adding the notifiers for them but not sure about the convetion in EP stack. So went with an opaque notifier but I don't have any issue in adding them. > Also this patch should be sent along with how it's going to be > used in function driver. > The function driver which is going to use this notifier is under development but I can share a snippet if that helps. > In general my preference would be to add only well defined notifiers > given that the endpoint function drivers are generic. > Not all functions are generic ones. For example, on Qcom modems there is a MHI function driver which transports the IP packets to the host and talks to the MHI host stack[1]. So for sure we need to have a custom notifier for vendor specific events.
