Subject: Re: [RFC] What are the goals for the architecture of an in-kernel IR  system?

   Hi,

Once lirc_dev is merged you can easily fix this:  You'll have *one* 
driver which supports *both* evdev and lirc interfaces.  If lircd opens 
the lirc interface raw data will be sent there, keystrokes come in via 
uinput.  Otherwise keystrokes are send directly via evdev.  Problem solved.

cheers,
   Gerd

PS:  Not sure this actually makes sense for the i2c case, as far I know
      these do decoding in hardware and don't provide access to the raw
      samples, so killing the in-kernel IR limits to make ir-kbd-i2c
      being on par with lirc_i2c might be more useful in this case.
