  • bb8187d35   MCA: delete all remaining traces of microchannel bus support. ... Browse Code »

    Hardware with MCA bus is limited to 386 and 486 class machines
    that are now 20+ years old and typically with less than 32MB
    of memory. A quick search on the internet, and you see that
    even the MCA hobbyist/enthusiast community has lost interest
    in the early 2000 era and never really even moved ahead from
    the 2.4 kernels to the 2.6 series.

    This deletes anything remaining related to CONFIG_MCA from core
    kernel code and from the x86 architecture. There is no point in
    carrying this any further into the future.

    One complication to watch for is inadvertently scooping up
    stuff relating to machine check, since there is overlap in
    the TLA name space (e.g. arch/x86/boot/mca.c).

  • dfe86cba7   mmc: add erase, secure erase, trim and secure trim operations ... Browse Code »

    SD/MMC cards tend to support an erase operation. In addition, eMMC v4.4
    cards can support secure erase, trim and secure trim operations that are
    all variants of the basic erase command.

    SD/MMC device attributes "erase_size" and "preferred_erase_size" have been
    added.

    "erase_size" is the minimum size, in bytes, of an erase operation. For
    MMC, "erase_size" is the erase group size reported by the card. Note that
    "erase_size" does not apply to trim or secure trim operations where the
    minimum size is always one 512 byte sector. For SD, "erase_size" is 512
    if the card is block-addressed, 0 otherwise.

    SD/MMC cards can erase an arbitrarily large area up to and
    including the whole card. When erasing a large area it may
    be desirable to do it in smaller chunks for three reasons:

    1. A single erase command will make all other I/O on the card
    wait. This is not a problem if the whole card is being erased, but
    erasing one partition will make I/O for another partition on the
    same card wait for the duration of the erase - which could be a
    several minutes.

    2. To be able to inform the user of erase progress.

    3. The erase timeout becomes too large to be very useful.
    Because the erase timeout contains a margin which is multiplied by
    the size of the erase area, the value can end up being several
    minutes for large areas.

    "erase_size" is not the most efficient unit to erase (especially for SD
    where it is just one sector), hence "preferred_erase_size" provides a good
    chunk size for erasing large areas.

    For MMC, "preferred_erase_size" is the high-capacity erase size if a card
    specifies one, otherwise it is based on the capacity of the card.

    For SD, "preferred_erase_size" is the allocation unit size specified by
    the card.

    "preferred_erase_size" is in bytes.

    These functions have been deprecated for some time now but remained until
    all legacy callers could be removed. With a few commits in 2.6.26 this
    has happened so now we can remove these deprecated functions.
