- Rewritten Artop host chip driver by Vojtech Pavlik. His log entries are: Cleanup whitespace. Remove superfluous chip entries in chip table. Remove global variables to allow more than one controller. Remove other forgotten stuff. This is a new driver for the Artop (Acard) controllers. It's completely untested, as I have never seen the hardware. However, I suspect it is much less broken than the previous one ... UDMA33 controller cannot detect 80-wire cable. - Separate ioctl handling out from ide.c. It's big enough. - Move atapi_read and atapi_write to the new atapi module. Fix the declaration of those functions. The data buffer did have the void * type! - Separate module handling code out from actual transfer handling code in to a new module called main.c. Slowly we are at the stage where the code indeed has to be organized logically and not just "sporadically" as was the case before. - Apply patch by Adam Richter for the ide-scsi.c attach method implementation. This particular driver is still broken due to generic SCSI layer issues. - Apply true modularization patch for qd65xx.c by Samuel Thibault. Here are his notes about it: Then, patch-modularize-2.[45] is a proposal for modularizing qd65xx.o. As a single module, one can choose to insmod it before being able to do some hdparm -p /dev/hd[a-d]. But one can't remove it while tuned, since selectproc may be needed. I am sorry I wasn't able to test it under 2.5 series, lacking a functionning kernel for my test computer, but it seemed to work perfectly under 2.4 series, and patches are almost the same. - Move PCI device id's to where they belong. Patch by Vojtech Pavlik. - Don't use BH_Lock in ide-tape.c - somehow this driver scares me sometimes.
