Hi, All,
This patchset is an attempt to provide a unified UUID/GUID definition to
replace various UUID/GUID definitions in current kernel. This will make
kernel source more readable and unify some duplicated efforts.
This is a RFC to talk about the general UUID/GUID definition design.
Only
UUID/GUID is used by many modules/subsystems in kernel. But this
patchset only replace one of them to use the new definition as an
example. After consensus is reached, we can replace other UUID/GUID
usage too.
This patchset is based on Joe's UUID printk support patchset:
[PATCH 0/9] Add vsprintf extension %pU to print UUID/GUIDs and use it
Any comment is welcome.
Best Regards,
Huang Ying
