Let me ask this rhetorical question: if we did nothing more than just normalize the SNR to provide a consistent value in dB, and did nothing more than normalize the existing strength field to be 0-100%, leaving it up to the driver author to decide the actual heuristic, what percentage of user's needs would be fulfilled?
We don't need a new API and more complexity and/or code confusion, just standardize on the unit values for the existing APIs.
1) SNR in either units of db or units of .1 db (I don't care which, although I prefer the later).
2) Strength as a percentage. The approach Devin outlined above has my support. - Steve -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
