Subject: [PATCHv2 01/13] [media] v4l2-ioctl: Add a default value for kernel version
Date: Mon, 27 Jun 2011 23:17:20 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110627231720.32e5f14f@pedra> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1309226359.git.mchehab@redhat.com>

Most drivers don't increase kernel versions as newer features are added or
bug fixes are solved. So, vidioc_querycap returned value for cap->version is
meaningless. Instead of keeping this situation forever, let's add a default
value matching the current Linux version.

Drivers that want to keep their own version control can still do it, as they
can override the default value for cap->version.
