The files under the uapi directory are android kernel uapi header files that
|
2016-07-19 01:27:22 +02:00
|
|
|
exist in android kernels, but have not been upstreamed into the regular
|
|
|
|
|
kernel.

None of these files are updated automatically, and are frozen at their

|
|
|
current value.

The files under the scsi directory are frozen copies of kernel scsi headers.
|
|
|
|
|
Linux's scsi headers are a mix of userspace-facing and kernel-facing
|
|
|
|
|
declarations that can't be directly used by userspace. The glibc
|
|
|
|
|
maintainers manually copy-and-pasted these definitions into their own
|
|
|
|
|
scsi headers and haven't substantially updated them in 15 years. The
|
|
|
|
|
musl libc project has a similar set of definitions in its scsi headers.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
These files are actually maintained in `external/kernel-headers/modified/scsi/`.
|
2016-07-20 21:28:56 +02:00
|
|
|
Any modification should first be made there then copied into the scsi
|
|
|
|
|
directory.
