Subject: Advansys driver
Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2007 11:11:41 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070726171141.GE19275@parisc-linux.org> (raw)


Since the AdvanSys driver hasn't had a maintainer in 6 years, I don't
think anybody's going to seriously object to me taking this on.

I present a git tree of patches:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/willy/advansys.git;a=summary

and the broken-out version of those patches:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/willy/advansys-2007-07-26/

There's no way I'm going to send the Lindenting of that driver to the
list; it's 1.1MB.  Here's the git-log entry for it:

    advansys: Large, uninteresting changes
    
     - Run Lindent
     - Move advansys_detect and advansys_release to the end of the file
     - Split advansys_board_found out of advansys_detect
     - Rename a few variables, such as shp to shost and pci_devp to pdev
     - Turn STATIC into static

I'll send the other 21 patches as a reply to this mail.

I'd like to particularly thank Ken Witherow for testing many different
versions of these patches.  He was indefatigable in the presence of
the daft changes I was making when I didn't have a card to test it on.
I would thank Dave Jones for sending me his card, but I think he did it
to get revenge on me for something :-)

If anyone has an EISA version of this card they want to donate to me,
I can give it a good home in an Alpha.
