| This is a list of things that need to be done to get this driver out of the |
| staging directory. |
| |
| - Implement the gasket framework's functionality through UIO instead of |
| introducing a new user-space drivers framework that is quite similar. |
| |
| UIO provides the necessary bits to implement user-space drivers. Meanwhile |
| the gasket APIs adds some extra conveniences like PCI BAR mapping, and |
| MSI interrupts. Add these features to the UIO subsystem, then re-implement |
| the Apex driver as a basic UIO driver instead (include/linux/uio_driver.h) |
| |
| - Document sysfs files with Documentation/ABI/ entries. |
| |
| - Use misc interface instead of major number for driver version description. |
| |
| - Add descriptions of module_param's |
| |
| - apex_get_status() should actually check status. |
| |
| - "drivers" should never be dealing with "raw" sysfs calls or mess around with |
| kobjects at all. The driver core should handle all of this for you |
| automaically. There should not be a need for raw attribute macros. |
