Hi Andrew. I would prefer to assume there is some issue with emails from myself to Felipe than he is completely ignoring the requests to actually respond in a technical fashion to my review. http://marc.info/?l=linux-iio&m=141077611429500&w=2 was my last request for clarification on ABI usage within driver. Given Felipe's last substantial email I think the lack of communications may be a generous interpretation... http://marc.info/?l=linux-iio&m=141075853024132&w=2 Harmut also emailed to see if Felipe was having communication problems and does not seem to have received a public response. The driver as proposed, under review with the information available, does not appear to conform to the published ABI and without further clarification or restriction to those elements within the ABI (as suggested as an easy way of moving forward), should not be applied. Rather than getting worked up, I'll leave interested readers to draw their own conclusions from the email thread. Sorry that this is wasting everyone's time. I am quite happy to either personally respond to any technical response to the review with the assistance of anyone else who wishes to review the code. Greg cc'd as upstream maintainer for IIO to keep him informed. Thanks, Jonathan On 29/09/14 15:02, Felipe Balbi wrote: > Alright, this is already ridiculous.
