I driver that is always modular and just uses existing exported APIs in proper ways and adds no to little new userspaces ABIs is one things. A new IPCs mechanisms that pokes into internals and exposes a huge ABI/API is a totally different thing. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
