There is no standard convention how to entitle such structures, so the
question is basically of out-of-curiosity class. For me, having a
sturcuture with name 'struct' is like having no name. Did you consider
to use such names as ovpn_dev or ovpn_iface? Meaning, using a name
that gives a clue regarding the scope of the content.
Yes, I wanted to switch to ovpn_priv, but did not care much for the
time being :)
I can still do it now in v12.
This topic caused me the biggest doubts. I don't want to ask to rename
everything on the final lap. Just want to share an outside perspective
on the structure name. And let you decide is it worth or not.
And if you ask me, ovpn_priv does not give a clue either. The module is
too complex for a vague structure name, even after your great work on
clearing its design.
