Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Refactor media IOCTL handling
Date: Fri, 29 Apr 2016 11:43:17 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1461919400-2658-1-git-send-email-sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com> (raw)

A number of years ago when someone (read: Laurent) added a new IOCTL to
the MC interface, I wanted IOCTL handling to be refactored. That wasn't
done however, so here are patches to do just that: there are too many
IOCTLs that copy the argument struct from the user and back.

The changes will also make the request API patches a little bit cleaner as
the argument copying is removed there. I'll post an RFC set on those in
the near future.

-- 
Kind regards,
Sakari
