  • Remove the old-fashioned lk201 driver under drivers/tc/ that used to be
    used by the old dz.c and zs.c drivers, which is now orphan code referred to
    from nowhere and does not build anymore. A modern replacement is available
    as drivers/input/keyboard/lkkbd.c.

    There are no plans to do anything about this piece of code and it does not
    fit anywhere anymore, so it is not just a matter of maintenance or the lack
    of. There are still some bits that might be added to the new lkkbd.c
    driver based on the old code, and the embedded hardware documentation which
    is otherwise quite hard to get hold of might be useful to keep too. Both
    of these can be done separately though. RIP.

  • This is a reimplementation of the zs driver for the serial subsystem. Any
    resemblance to the old driver is purely coincidential. ;-) I do hope I got
    the handling of modem lines right -- better do not tackle me about the
    issue unless you feel too good...

    Any users of the old driver: please note the numbers of the serial lines
    have now been swapped, i.e. ttyS0 ttyS1 and ttyS2 ttyS3. It has
    to do with the modem lines mentioned above; basically the port A in a given
    chip has to be initialised before the port B if you want to use the latter
    as the serial console (which is usually the case), as operations on modem
    lines of the serial line associated with the port B access both ports (see
    the comment at the top of the driver for the details of wiring used).
    Please update your scripts.

    This is also the reason each SCC now requests an IRQ once only (as seen in
    "/proc/interrupts") -- the handler takes care of both ports at once as the
    line associated with the port B has to take status update interrupts from
    both ports (and yet the line of the port A takes its own for itself too).
    The old driver never got it right...

  • This is a set of changes to convert support for the TURBOchannel bus to the
    driver model. It implements the usual set of calls similar to what other bus
    drivers have: tc_register_driver(), tc_unregister_driver(), etc. All the
    platform-specific bits have been removed and headers from asm-mips/dec/ have
    been merged into linux/tc.h, which should be included by drivers.

  • 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!
