From db29e85a7ece62de1899917c1ec0ffe55cf1d3a0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Markus Lidel Date: Tue, 9 Aug 2005 10:08:03 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] i2o: remove new configuration API Remove new configuration API from i2o_config The API-patch is still available from the I2O website (which is mentioned in the kernel config now). It is removed because it creates a new binary sysfs-attribute, which doesn't have the limitiation of 4k. Expect for the Adaptec controllers, which has a limitation in the hardware this attribute doesn't make sense anywhere else. Until the sysfs API provides an attribute which doesn't buffer (like firmware) and let access to at least 64k blocks i provide a separate patch... (akpm: basically, this API was introduced post-2.6.12 and Markus wants to pull it out before 2.6.13).
