w1: coding-style - naming for master/slave for new driver and dt binding

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

 



Hello Krzystof,

During review of my dt-bindings patches for a new w1 driver (https://lkml.org/lkml/2023/10/13/959), there was mention that the use of 'master' is not considered great terminology nowadays.  Are there any plans to replace the usage of master/slave in w1 as mentioned in Documentation/process/coding-style.rst ?  As we are in the final stages of our W1 soft IP development, I believe there is a small window in which we can align on our new IP name if appropriate, prior to my next round of patch submission for amd,axi-w1-master and get the binding to match.

If there is a preferred choice from the example alternatives in the docs, I can look to see if we can align the naming and update my next patch round accordingly - however if the guidance is to keep to the specification-defined terminology (pre-2020) then we can do so.

regards
Kris
