There are at least two other ambient light sensor drivers: drivers/misc/isl29003.c and drivers/misc/tsl2550.c. Is there any standardisation of the ABIs whcih these drivers offer? If so, does this new driver comply with that? It would be most useful if the changelog were to fully describe the proposed kernel<->userspace interface. That's the most important part of the driver, because it's the only part we can never change. There is a desultory effort to maintain sysfs API descriptions under Documentation/ABI/. I'd have thought that it would be appropriate to document this driver's ABI in there. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
