Subject: [RFC] NFC: Add num of targets to TARGETS_FOUND event
Date: Thu, 8 Dec 2011 17:13:14 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <B30D1FD582D6484ABF57420512E5803504FD0316@DNCE03.ent.ti.com> (raw)

Hi Lauro, Aloisio, Samuel, all,

It seems that when targets are found (via NFC_EVENT_TARGETS_FOUND), there is no way to know (in user space) how many targets were found in advance.

I suggest we add a new attribute NFC_ATTR_NUM_TARGETS_FOUND to the event NFC_EVENT_TARGETS_FOUND.
Otherwise, the user would have to wait until a timeut expires in order to decide that no more targets will arrive.
Please note that the knowledge of how many targets were found can be found in the variable dev->n_targets.

I'll appreciate your comments on this issue.
If you agree, I'll send out a patch for this.

Thanks & BR,
Ilan
