next question about exporting kernel headers, this one related to the content placed under include/uapi/.
is there any rationale for header files to be living under include/uapi/<somedir> if they're not listed in the corresponding Kbuild file for export?
for example, in include/uapi/drm, there are 24 header files, but only 21 of them are mentioned in that Kbuild file -- the Kbuild file doesn't mention armada_drm.h, etnaviv_drm.h or omap_drm.h, and i've verified that running "make headers_install" doesn't install those three headers.
i'm going to assume those are just forgotten remnants or something, unless there is some actual reason to do that. is there?
Why not ask this on the drm mailing list?
because drm is not the only subdirectory for which that's true, and the question really is a generic one. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P. J.
