Driver will accept a parameter "locality" and it will always operate on that locality. By default this parameter will be 0 which is what current driver assumes. Who is the maintainer for this driver? -----Original Message----- From: Valdis.Kletnieks@...edu [mailto:Valdis.Kletnieks@...edu] Sent: Wednesday, October 10, 2007 12:46 PM To: Agarwal, Lomesh Cc: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: Re: TPM driver changes to support multiple locality On Tue, 09 Oct 2007 15:51:11 PDT, "Agarwal, Lomesh" said: > Current TPM driver supports only locality 0.

Make sure you extend the API in such a way that older userspace programs that don't pass the new locality parameter still work correctly. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
