mtdev.git/include/mtdev-plumbing.h, branch v1.1.5

Introduce a stable ABI

2010-12-22T17:29:00+00:00

The current mtdev is not ABI stable, and the upcoming additions to the kernel api will break ABI. This patch starts the process of keeping binary compatibility with old programs, by moving the abi-specific parts under a special flag, MTDEV_NO_LEGACY_API, and makes sure the internal parts compiles with MTDEV_NO_LEGACY_API set. This way, older programs will still work, old programs will still compile, and new programs will be able to use the additions. Signed-off-by: Henrik Rydberg

Restructure mtdev api

2010-06-19T12:01:40+00:00

Split the api into plumbing and porcelain layers and move the plumbing part to its own optional header file. The main usecase is to fetch events from the device, route them through the converter and extract the processed events. To simplify the API, replace the intermediate mtdev_pull() function by the higher-level mtdev_get(). This function does all the required steps, and has the same semantics as read().
