Why?
Well, v4l2 specs says that multiple opens are optional. Honestly, i
think that five userspace applications open /dev/radio is enough. Btw,
if too many userspace applications opened radio that means that
something wrong happened in userspace. And driver can handle such
situation by disallowing new open calls(returning EBUSY). I can't
imagine user that runs more than five mplayers or gnomeradios, or
kradios and so on.
Am i totally wrong here?
Thanks.
"I can't imagine.." Funny answer, reminds at the 640kB limit of old
computers.. :)
But if there's no real technical restriction, the driver should not
restrict access a device at all.
