[PATCH 0/7] Introduce MEDIA_VERSION to end KENREL_VERSION abuse in media

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

 



Currently the media subsystem has a very creative abuse of the
KERNEL_VERSION macro to encode an arbitrary version triplet for media
drivers and device hardware revisions.

This series introduces a new macro called MEDIA_REVISION which encodes
a version triplet like KERNEL_VERSION does, but clearly has media
centric semantics and doesn't fool someone into thinking specific
parts are defined for a specific kernel version only like in out of
tree drivers.

Johannes Thumshirn (7):
  [media] media: introduce MEDIA_REVISION macro
  video: fbdev: don't use KERNEL_VERSION macro for MEDIA_REVISION
  [media] media: document the use of MEDIA_REVISION instead of
    KERNEL_VERSION
  [media] cx25821: use MEDIA_REVISION instead of KERNEL_VERSION
  [media] media: s3c-camif: Use MEDIA_REVISON instead of KERNEL_VERSION
  [media] media: bcm2048: use MEDIA_REVISION isntead of KERNEL_VERSION
  staging/atomisp: use MEDIA_VERSION instead of KERNEL_VERSION
