> Subject: [PATCH v2 0/7] Enhance rawdev APIs
> 
> This patchset proposes some internal and externally-visible changes to the
> rawdev API, the ABI change of which were previously announced.
> 
> The changes are in two main areas:
> * For any APIs which take a void * parameter for driver-specific structs,
>   add an additional parameter to provide the struct length. This allows
>   some runtime type-checking, as well as possible ABI-compatibility support
>   in the future as structure change generally involve a change in the size
>   of the structure.
> * Ensure all APIs which can return error values have int type, rather than
>   void. Since functions like info_get and queue_default_get can now do some
>   typechecking, they need to be modified to allow them to return error
>   codes on failure.
> 
> V2:
>   - add additional patch to make start/stop functions optional
>   - remove deprecation notice once changes applied
> 
> Bruce Richardson (7):
>   rawdev: add private data length parameter to info fn
>   rawdev: allow drivers to return error from info function
>   rawdev: add private data length parameter to config fn
>   rawdev: add private data length parameter to queue fns
>   rawdev: allow queue default config query to return error
>   rawdev: mark start and stop functions optional
>   doc: remove rawdev deprecation notice
