drivers/net/irda/irda-usb.c: In function 'stir421x_patch_device': drivers/net/irda/irda-usb.c:1108: warning: format '%u' expects type 'unsigned int', but argument 4 has type 'size_t' Cc: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Cc: "David S.

2006-06-17[IRDA]: irda-usb.c: STIR421x cleanupsNick Fedchik
This cleans the STIR421x part of the irda-usb code. We also no longer try to load all existing firmwares but only the matching one (according to the USB id we get from the dongle).

Use NULL instead of 0 for a null pointer value (sparse warning): drivers/net/irda/irda-usb.c:1781:30: warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer Also, correct timeout argument to use milliseconds instead of jiffies.

2006-04-14[IRDA]: irda-usb, unregister netdev when patch upload failsSamuel Ortiz
In the STIR421x case, when the firmware upload fails, we need to unregister_netdev. Otherwise we hit a BUG on free_netdev(), if sysfs is enabled. Signed-off-by: Samuel Ortiz <samuel.ortiz@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-04-09[IRDA]: Support for Sigmatel STIR421x chipSamuel Ortiz
This patch enables support for the Sigmatel's STIR421x IrDA chip. Once patched with Sigmatel's firmware, this chip "almost" follows the USB-IrDA spec. Thus this patch is against irda-usb.[ch]. The code has been tested by Nick Fedchik on an STIR4210 chipset based dongle. Signed-off-by: Samuel Ortiz <samuel.ortiz@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-03-20[PATCH] USB: Fix irda-usb use after useEugene Teo
Don't read from free'd memory after calling netif_rx(). docopy is used as a boolean (0 and 1) so unsigned int is sufficient.

2006-02-19[IRDA]: irda-usb bug fixesJean Tourrilhes
This patch fixes 2 bugs in the USB-IrDA code. The first one is a buffer overrun in the RX path. We are now using IRDA_SKB_MAX_MTU when initializing the Rx URB. The second one is a potential stack recursion when unplugging the USB dongle. It seems that first we get the Rx URB with a generic error code, and after a while the Rx URB comes again with a "disconnect" error code. Since we are resubmitting the Rx URB immediately after receiving the first error one, we might enter an endless loop. When getting an error Rx URB, the patch defers the Rx URB resubmitting so that it gives us a chance to catch the disconnect one, in case the dongle has juts been unplugged. Tested against 2.6.16-rc2.

2005-09-08[PATCH] USB: URB_ASYNC_UNLINK flag removed from the kernelAlan Stern
29 July 2005, Cambridge, MA: This afternoon Alan Stern submitted a patch to remove the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK flag from the Linux kernel. Mr. Stern explained, "This flag is a relic from an earlier, less-well-designed system. For over a year it hasn't been used for anything other than printing warning messages." An anonymous spokesman for the Linux kernel development community commented, "This is exactly the sort of thing we see happening all the time. As the kernel evolves, support for old techniques and old code can be jettisoned and replaced by newer, better approaches. Proprietary operating systems do not have the freedom or flexibility to change so quickly." Mr. Stern, a staff member at Harvard University's Rowland Institute who works on Linux only as a hobby, noted that the patch (labelled as548) did not update two files, keyspan.c and option.c, in the USB drivers' "serial" subdirectory. "Those files need more extensive changes," he remarked. "They examine the status field of several URBs at times when they're not supposed to. That will need to be fixed before the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK flag is removed." Greg Kroah-Hartman, the kernel maintainer responsible for overseeing all of Linux's USB drivers, did not respond to our inquiries or return our calls. His only comment was "Applied, thanks."

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
