From: "Manu Abraham" <abraham.manu@xxxxxxxxx> > (1) moving the frontends to userspace Is that a good idea? I prefer "monolithic" drivers for a piece of hardware. Having open interfaces to "internal" components of a piece of hardware means being vulnerable to the hardware state being tampered with. IMHO, drivers should only offer "abstracted" functions to the "outside world" and keep all the "hardware internals" solely to themselves. Only that allows the best possible stability and reliability of driver and hardware.
