Re: [RFC v2 1/1] HID: User-space I/O driver support for HID subsystem

Hi David,

The kernel has a ringbuffer structure. Would it make sense to use that
one?

Or would using just a SKB queue be better?

Here we have to make sure that we have all required information provided
by userspace. Anything else that HID might require to work better. Or
that BR/EDR or LE provides additionally over USB.

What about adding another __u32 len here? Just so we can do some extra
length checks if needed.
