IR is an alias for Infrared Remote, while RC is an alias for Remote Controller. While currently all implementations are with Infrared Remote Controller, this subsystem is not meant to be used only by IR type of RC's. So, as discussed on both linux-media and linux-input, the better is to rename the subsystem as Remote Controller. While, currently, the only application that uses the /sys/class/irrcv is ir-keytable application, and its sysfs support works only with the current linux-next code, it is still possible to change the userspace API without the risk of breaking applications. So, better to rename this sooner than later. Later patches will be needed to rename the files and to move them away from drivers/media, but this is not a critical issue. So, for now, let's just change the name of the sysfs class/nodes. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com> |
