Quite a bit of this is fixing things broken previously (the advansys fix
is still pending resolution, but I'll send it as an -rc fix when we have
it). There's the final elimination of all drivers that are esp based
but don't use the scsi_esp core (that's mostly m68k and alpha). Plus
the usual bunch of driver updates and the addition of a new enclosure
services driver and the corresponding ULD.
The patch is available from:
I'm going to guess that this is the entry in feature-removal.txt
that need an update then:
---------------------------
What: old NCR53C9x driver
When: October 2007
Why: Replaced by the much better esp_scsi driver. Actual low-level
driver can be ported over almost trivially.
Who: David Miller <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx>
Not immediately ... I anticipate a few "where'd my driver go?" type
questions from m68k for which this provides a useful reference to point
to ...
Don't bother, we're fully aware of this.
The shortest feature removal notice in Linux's history (is it?) didn't go
unnoticed ;-)
