Yes, you're right. Looks like this would be more complicated but better way to do the thing. I'll look at migration state notifier mechanism. > But we wanted to get the basic no-ITS ABI sorted out and agreed first Yes, this is good idea, too much changes otherwise. But here at Samsung we have a project, and it has deadlines, so please understand that i try to do things quickly. Of course, you see that as soon as i make something, i post it at least as RFCs, because i don't want to have something misdesigned, which will be dropped afterwards. Cooperation with OSS is one of goals of our project. Thank you very much for your cooperation and explanations. Kind regards, Pavel Fedin Expert Engineer Samsung Electronics Research center Russia
