From adbe000e3df5f91572bf4a77a2acd84ff5b87320 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Zbigniew=20J=C4=99drzejewski-Szmek?= Date: Wed, 6 Apr 2022 11:56:05 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] hwdb: drop boilerplate about match patterns being unstable We've had this text since the beginning, but in fact the patterns must be stable in order for people to create local hwdb entries. And we support that and can't change the match patterns without being very careful. So let's just drop the text. --- hwdb.d/60-evdev.hwdb | 5 ----- hwdb.d/60-input-id.hwdb | 5 ----- hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb | 5 ----- hwdb.d/60-sensor.hwdb | 5 ----- hwdb.d/70-mouse.hwdb | 5 ----- hwdb.d/70-pointingstick.hwdb | 4 ---- 6 files changed, 29 deletions(-) diff --git a/hwdb.d/60-evdev.hwdb b/hwdb.d/60-evdev.hwdb index 9fcb4a3ddf1..c97cd135576 100644 --- a/hwdb.d/60-evdev.hwdb +++ b/hwdb.d/60-evdev.hwdb @@ -3,11 +3,6 @@ # The lookup keys are composed in: # 60-evdev.rules # -# Note: The format of the "evdev:" prefix match key is a contract between the -# rules file and the hardware data, it might change in later revisions to -# support more or better matches, it is not necessarily expected to be a stable -# ABI. -# # Match string formats: # evdev: # evdev:name::dmi: diff --git a/hwdb.d/60-input-id.hwdb b/hwdb.d/60-input-id.hwdb index 2d5681dea69..802ed9a1e70 100644 --- a/hwdb.d/60-input-id.hwdb +++ b/hwdb.d/60-input-id.hwdb @@ -3,11 +3,6 @@ # The lookup keys are composed in: # 60-input-id.rules # -# Note: The format of the "input-id:" prefix match key is a contract between -# the rules file and the hardware data, it might change in later revisions to -# support more or better matches, it is not necessarily expected to be a stable -# ABI. -# # Match string formats: # id-input:modalias: # diff --git a/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb b/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb index c196a1fd64b..7c830fb9b1e 100644 --- a/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb +++ b/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb @@ -13,11 +13,6 @@ # The lookup keys are composed in: # 60-evdev.rules # -# Note: The format of the "evdev:" prefix match key is a contract between the -# rules file and the hardware data, it might change in later revisions to -# support more or better matches, it is not necessarily expected to be a stable -# ABI. -# # Supported hardware matches are: # - Generic input devices match: # evdev:input:bZZZZvYYYYpXXXXeWWWW-VVVV diff --git a/hwdb.d/60-sensor.hwdb b/hwdb.d/60-sensor.hwdb index ea278913bc5..b54539bf536 100644 --- a/hwdb.d/60-sensor.hwdb +++ b/hwdb.d/60-sensor.hwdb @@ -3,11 +3,6 @@ # The lookup keys are composed in: # 60-sensor.rules # -# Note: The format of the "sensor:" prefix match key is a contract between the -# rules file and the hardware data, it might change in later revisions to -# support more or better matches, it is not necessarily expected to be a stable -# ABI. -# # Match string formats: # sensor:modalias::dmi: # diff --git a/hwdb.d/70-mouse.hwdb b/hwdb.d/70-mouse.hwdb index 723d145e347..4084019bdef 100644 --- a/hwdb.d/70-mouse.hwdb +++ b/hwdb.d/70-mouse.hwdb @@ -6,11 +6,6 @@ # The lookup keys are composed in: # 70-mouse.rules # -# Note: The format of the "mouse:" prefix match key is a contract between the -# rules file and the hardware data, it might change in later revisions to -# support more or better matches, it is not necessarily expected to be a stable -# ABI. -# # Match key format: # mouse::vp:name:: # diff --git a/hwdb.d/70-pointingstick.hwdb b/hwdb.d/70-pointingstick.hwdb index 6039119b6a1..00f28c60340 100644 --- a/hwdb.d/70-pointingstick.hwdb +++ b/hwdb.d/70-pointingstick.hwdb @@ -7,10 +7,6 @@ # The lookup keys are composed in: # 60-evdev.rules # -# Note: The format of the "evdev:" prefix match key is a contract between the -# rules file and the hardware data, it might change in later revisions to -# support more or better matches, it is not necessarily a stable ABI. -# # Supported hardware matches are: # - Generic input devices match: # evdev:input:bZZZZvYYYYpXXXXeWWWW-VVVV
