Hi,
a new version against 2.5.69 is now up at:
http://twibble.org/dist/dc395x/
Changes in this version:
- Fix kernel crash when sharing IRQ's with other devices and the
other devices IRQ triggers.
- Make the debugging mess less of a mess.
- Changed the module initialization around. If I'm reading
scsi_mid_low_api.txt correctly it's now doing it "hotplug" style
instead of "passive" style. At least it simplifies things and
permits the driver to survive multiple insmod/rmmod cycles.
- Changed the command line option from a set of integers into
multiple parameters. Use the new module_param_named stuff. Cleanup
all the code that deals with these options.
- Fix the formatting of kerneldoc stuff on the functions that have
it added so far. Add more for all the stuff effecting by the
module/parameter changes.
- Cleanup macro abuse where macros would implicitly use local
variables. Now it always passes the parameters it operates on to
the macros.
- Cleanup function scope. Make everything except the module init
functions static. Remove unused functions DC395x_updateDCB,
DC395x_inquiry_done and DC395x_inquiry.
NOTE: I've noticed some changes to the driver on linux-scsi and
bk-commits today so it may not apply cleanly to recent bk
trees.
