Subject: [RFC bluetooth-next 0/4] ieee802154: UAPI changes
Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2015 21:57:38 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1421787462-24042-1-git-send-email-alex.aring@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

this patch series contains various UAPI changes. It's a RFC for now, to be sure
nobody will scream when I send real patches for this.

In my opnion patch "ieee802154: 6lowpan: fix ARPHRD to ARPHRD_6LOWPAN" is the
is the most important part of this series. I know this issue a long time
and some already used application really checks on this, but we need to change that.

Patch "ieee802154: change wpan-phy name to phy" will change that you will not type
"wpan-phy0" anymore on iwpan phy settings. After this patch it's "phy0" only. This
makes the handling similar like iw.

Patch "ieee802154: remove deprecated sysfs entries" will breaks some scripts if
somebody really use these sysfs entries.

So I would like her others opinions according to these changes.

- Alex
