We can deal with the layering in next round of patches. No, it's not a "driver context" at all. It is a "hyperv driver", so name it as such. A "context" is a void pointer or something that the driver uses privately. And you already have a pointer to the context in the base structure so you don't need your own. You should work on removing the layering now, that will clean this all up. thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
