[alsa-devel] [PATCH for-5.6 0/4] ALSA: ctl: UAPI updates for obsoleted members

[Takashi Sakamoto]

Hi,

As a result of applying patchset for Y2038 issue[1], 'snd_ctl_elem_value'
structure is changed to lost 'tstamp' member. This change should
corresponds to removal of an access flag of 'snd_ctl_elem_info' structure.
These changes brings slight lose of backward compatibility, thus it's
better to bump protocol version.

Additionally, for recent few year I work to obsolete 'dimen' member from
'snd_ctl_elem_info' structure. It's good timing to attempt toward it.

This patchset includes these changes and bump the version up to v2.1.0.
