If I recall well, > Jean-Christophe has proposed it a long time ago... Yeah, we're at a size where it's starting to be warranted (powerpc does so already). It does cut down on the cross-exposure and review though and puts everyone in their own little sandbox, so there's some benefit in keeping it flat. I think that benefit is losing its appeal though. But let's hold off for another couple of releases with the churn of moving things out in subdirectories. >> Yes, I have to make sure that everybody agree on our side... > > The difficult point with this prefix... well it is difficult to tell... > our product will never be called "at91" again! That's a marketing issue, not a technical kernel one. If we create subdirectory it makes sense to name it 'atmel' instead of 'at91' though, I'm sure. > So, yes, our Linux identity is still "at91" and we are pretty attached > to it but our newer products are named "sam" + "core" + "product family" > which results in our newer family: "sama5d3" (note the at91 is missing)... > => anyway, we think that the at91 prefix is still vivid in Linux > community and we consider it as a good choice for now. > So, I may rename the newly introduced "sama5d3*.dts[i]" files with > "at91-sama5d3*.dts[i]" (while .c/.h files will remain the same). Sounds reasonable, or stick to the same format as you already have with at91sam9 families. When we move to subdirectories it might make sense to stick them under 'atmel' instead of 'at91' though and drop the prefix. -Olof -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
