Subject: Linux v3.7-rc2 DVB breaks user space compilation
Date: Thu, 15 Nov 2012 21:03:04 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <201211152103.04468@leon.remlab.net> (raw)
Hello,
The following patch broke our userspace software builds. While it does
preserve BINARY compatibility, it breaks SOURCE compatibility as the parameter
names have changed. I don't see the rationale for breaking compatibility in
the patch description.
Please consider reverting to the old names. Thank you.

[media] dvb_frontend: add multistream support
Unify multistream support at the DVBAPI: several delivery systems
allow it. Yet, each one had its own name. So, instead of adding
a third version of this field, remove the per-standard naming,
unifying it into a common name.
The legacy code number can still be used by old applications.
Version increased to 5.8.
[mchehab@redhat.com: joined the va1j5jf007s patch, in order to
avoid compilation breakage]
