[PATCH v3 0/1] Remove cxl driver

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This series removes the cxl for IBM CAPI devices.

CAPI devices have been out of production for some time, and we're not
aware of any remaining users who are likely to want a modern kernel.
There's almost certainly some remaining driver bugs and we don't have much
hardware available to properly test the drivers any more. Removing these
drivers will also mean we can get rid of a non-trivial amount of support
code in arch/powerpc.

Thanks to everyone who's worked on these drivers over the last decade.

This series does not affect the OpenCAPI/ocxl driver, nor does it affect
Compute Express Link (the other cxl, an amusing but unfortunate naming
collision).

The previous version of this series also removed the cxlflash driver,
which has now been merged into the scsi tree as 772ba9b5bd27 ("scsi:
cxlflash: Remove driver").

This series applies on top of 772ba9b5bd27 and the patch at [0].
