Hi all, This patchset adds an API for managing entity enumerations, i.e. storing a bit of information per entity. The entity ID is no longer limited to small integers (e.g. 31 or 63), but MEDIA_ENTITY_MAX_LOW_ID. The drivers are also converted to use that instead of a fixed number.
If the number of entities in a real use case grows beyond the capabilities of the approach, the algorithm may be changed. But most importantly, the API is used to perform the same operation everywhere it's done. I'm sending this for review only, the code itself is untested. I haven't entirely made up my mind on the fourth patch. It could be dropped, as it uses the API for a somewhat different purpose. -- Kind regards, Sakari -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
