[PATCH 0/2] clean up scsi documentation

[PATCH 0/2] clean up scsi documentation

[Rolf Eike Beer]

Hi,

here are my patches to clean up the scsi documentation. It is split in three
parts:

0) Do the work. A small script that does the following things:
-create Documentation/scsi/
-move all the scsi documentation from Documentation/ and drivers/scsi/ to this
location
-kill ChangeLog.serverraid. It's a duplication from ChangeLog.ips but is
missing some bits (got ok from maintainer to do this)
-rename README.drivername to drivername.txt which is more common in
Documentation/*
NOTE: start this script on the top level of the source tree (/usr/src/linux or
whereever you put it).

1) Fix up references. A patch doing the following:
-fix up all the references (hope I got them all)
-introduce Documentation/scsi/00-INDEX

2) Clean up. Just a bit cosmetics:
-kill unneeded trailing new lines
-kill one not-ascii character from FlashPoint.txt
-kill unneeded patch instruction from cpqfc.txt: noone needs this because the
driver is already in the kernel as everybody can see.

PS: please CC me, I'm not on this list and I'm only reading this via google
sometimes.

---------Here we go: the script----------
#!/bin/bash

mkdir -v Documentation/scsi
mv -v drivers/scsi/README.* Documentation/scsi/
rm -v drivers/scsi/ChangeLog.serverraid

Sounds good to me.  Would be nice to separate the steps so BK notices
the file moves and keeps history.

Ok. What would be the best way of doing this? Move the files one by one? One 
patch per file? Or a better script?

Let some BK user (e.g. james or me) do the move and then apply your fixup
patches.  We can do all moves as one cset without problems.

I've already converted this to a BK script and applied it.

Except for the removal of ChangeLog.serverraid (I renamed this ChangeLog.ips).

That's why I sent them here. Or did I misunderstood you, Douglas?

Please do it.

I asked someone from Adaptec some time ago and he said this one is obsolete. 
Can you explain me the idea behind this?

Thanks,
