linux: Drop workaround for kernel < 2.6.34#39
Conversation
Also drop HIDIOC* definitions as they are present since kernel 2.6.39.
|
where do we define minimum supported kernel? |
|
Nowhere as far as I know. But I guess everything above 2.6.39 should work now, but I haven't tested that. And as this version is so old, I don't think it's necessary to document this as it should *just work* on any halfway recent Linux kernel. |
|
I still think it worth adding at least README notice. Would you? |
|
If you're willing to test hidapi on e.g. kernel 2.6.39 then sure; but other than downloading the oldest supported CentOS version (disclaimer: I just know that they have super old kernels but I have no idea what version) I wouldn't even know how to get a VM running kernel 2.6.39 |
|
Hm, good point - don't want to check/make any assures on support. As usual, there will be that one person, who will try and open a bug. |
I'd say, if someone opens a bug report for that, we can add it to the readme 😉 |
