one thing i like about windows is that windows have stable driver abi so i can use vista driver on windows 11
djdisodo1 2022-07-20 08:06:55
linux never had stable driver abi

linux having an “unstable driver abi” doesn’t mean that drivers are prone to break

true

djdisodo1 2022-07-20 08:10:13
you can’t update kernel without breaking driver
djdisodo1 2022-07-20 08:10:20
unless you update driver too
Fuseteam 2022-07-20 08:10:27
you can
Fuseteam 2022-07-20 08:10:39
if the driver is upstreamed

one thing i like about windows is that windows have stable driver abi so i can use vista driver on windows 11

this also means vendors can have less effort providing windows driver

Fuseteam 2022-07-20 08:11:39
when a driver is upstreamed, the kernel dev team take it upon themselves to maintain the driver
djdisodo1 2022-07-20 08:12:08
vendors doesn’t tend to opensource XD
Fuseteam 2022-07-20 08:12:15
this why intel and amd graphic drivers don’t break on kerne6 update xD
Fuseteam 2022-07-20 08:12:50
djdisodo1 2022-07-20 08:12:08
vendors doesn’t tend to opensource XD

that’s only maintainable way for a project like linux really xd

Fuseteam 2022-07-20 08:13:28
you don’t want a bunch of unoptimizable “driver abi” bloating the kernel
