2006-01-06[PATCH] pcmcia: unify attach, EVENT_CARD_INSERTION handlers into one probe ↵Dominik Brodowski
callback Unify the EVENT_CARD_INSERTION and "attach" callbacks to one unified probe() callback. As all in-kernel drivers are changed to this new callback, there will be no temporary backwards-compatibility. Inside a probe() function, each driver _must_ set struct pcmcia_device *p_dev->instance and instance->handle correctly. With these patches, the basic driver interface for 16-bit PCMCIA drivers now has the classic four callbacks known also from other buses: int (*probe) (struct pcmcia_device *dev); void (*remove) (struct pcmcia_device *dev); int (*suspend) (struct pcmcia_device *dev); int (*resume) (struct pcmcia_device *dev); Signed-off-by: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.net>
2006-01-06[PATCH] pcmcia: unify detach, REMOVAL_EVENT handlers into one remove callbackDominik Brodowski
Unify the "detach" and REMOVAL_EVENT handlers to one "remove" function. Old functionality is preserved, for the moment. Signed-off-by: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.net>
2006-01-05[PATCH] pcmcia: new suspend coreDominik Brodowski
Move the suspend and resume methods out of the event handler, and into special functions. Also use these functions for pre- and post-reset, as almost all drivers already do, and the remaining ones can easily be converted.

2006-01-03[IPV4]: Safer reassemblyHerbert Xu
Another spin of Herbert Xu's "safer ip reassembly" patch for 2.6.16. (The original patch is here: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-netdev&m=112281936522415&w=2 and my only contribution is to have tested it.) This patch (optionally) does additional checks before accepting IP fragments, which can greatly reduce the possibility of reassembling fragments which originated from different IP datagrams.

First off, thanks for the kbuild docs, they are very useful! Second, I've attached a patch to modules.txt (from 2.6.14.2) with a "compile" fix to a Makefile example, and some trivial spelling/grammar nits.

2005-12-13[PATCH] add boot option to control Intel SATA/PATA combined modeJesse Barnes
Combined mode sucks. Especially when both libata and the legacy IDE drivers try to drive ports on the same device, since that makes DMA rather difficult. This patch addresses the problem by allowing the user to control which driver binds to the ports in a combined mode configuration. In many cases, they'll probably want the libata driver to control both ports since it can use DMA for talking with ATAPI devices (when libata.atapi_enabled=1 of course). It also allows the user to get old school behavior by letting the legacy IDE driver bind to both ports. But neither is forced, the patch doesn't change current behavior unless one of combined_mode=ide or combined_mode=libata is passed on the boot line. Either of those options may require you to access your devices via different device nodes (/dev/hd* in the ide case and /dev/sd* in the libata case), though of course if you have udev installed nicely you may not notice anything. :) Let me know if the documentation is too cryptic, I'd be happy to expand on it if necessary. I think most users will want to boot with 'combined_mode=libata' and add 'options libata atapi_enabled=1' to their modules.conf to get good DVD playing and disk behavior (haven't tested CD or DVD writing though). I'd much rather things behave sanely by default (i.e. DMA for devices on both ports), but apparently that's difficult given the various chip bugs and hardware configs out there (not to mention that people's drives may suddenly change from /dev/hdc to /dev/sdb), so this boot option may be the correct long term fix.
