The Apricot was a 486 PC with 4MB RAM, and an on-board ethernet
via an intel i82596 hard-wired to i/o 0x300.
Those who were using linux in the 1990's will recall that the
i82596 driver was not one of the more stable or widely used
drivers of its day. Combine that with the extremely limited
resources of the platform, and it is truly time to expire the
support for this thing.
There are some old m68k targets who were also using this chip,
so rather than poll the m68k user base, we simply cut out the
x86/Apricot support here in this commit.

I deleted one too many lines here. That last #endif needs
to stay as the parent #if still remains. Fengguang's 0-day
testing found it in an m68k allyesconfig build.
I've folded this in, build tested for m68k locally, and done
a forced update on my legacy-isa-delete branch.
Paul.

This driver was specific to a "professional workstation" line
of products from around 1993 that used the i82596 ethernet chip
as an on-board ethernet solution.
With a 486 processor, and the premium top of the line model maxing
out at a clock speed of 50MHz, we can safely retire this support.

It was amusing that linux was able to make use of this 1980's
technology on machines long past its intended lifespan, but
it probably should go now.
To set some context, the 3c501 was designed in the 1980's to be
used on 8088 PC-XT 8bit ISA machines. It was built using a large
number of discrete TTL components and truly looks like a relic
of the ancient past before large scale integration was common.
But from a functional point of view, the real issue, as stated
in the (also obsolete) Ethernet-HowTo, is that "...the 3c501 can
only do one thing at a time -- while you are removing one packet
from the single-packet buffer it cannot receive another packet,
nor can it receive a packet while loading a transmit packet."
You know things are not good when the Kconfig help text suggests
you make a cron job doing a ping every minute.
Hardware that old and crippled is simply not going to be used by
anyone in a time where 10 year old 100Mbit PCI cards (that are
still functional) are largely give-away items.

The parallel port is largely replaced by USB, and even in the
day where these drivers were current, the documented speed was
less than 100kB/s. Let us not pretend that anyone cares about
these drivers anymore, or worse - pretend that anyone is using
them on a modern kernel.
As a side bonus, this is the end of legacy parallel port ethernet,
so we get to drop the whole chunk relating to that in the legacy
Space.c file containing the non-PCI unified probe dispatch.

For those of us who were around in the early to mid 1990's, we
will remember that the i825xx ethernet support was not something
that was considered sufficiently vetted for 24/7 use.
Folks might be inclined to use *functional* ISA hardware on some
near expired P3 ISA machines for dedicated workhorse applications,
but the odds of using (and relying on) one of these old/experimental
drivers is essentially nil. So lets remove them.

These old drivers should not be confused with the very common PCI
cards that are supported by e100.c -- these older 10Mbit ISA only
drivers were not as commonly used as some of the other ISA drivers,
simply due to hardware availability and pricing.
Given the rarity of the hardware, and the subsequent less extensive
use of the drivers, it makes sense to obsolete them at this point
in time, along with other rare/experimental ISA drivers.

This driver supported early to mid 1990's Zenith laptops, of the
2" thick variety. The driver was already dead 10+ years ago, but
we see this in the source:
----------------
/* 10/2002
[...]
Tested on a vintage Zenith Z-Note 433Lnp+. Probably broken on
anything else. Testers (and detailed bug reports) are welcome :-).
----------------
To clarify, a 433 translates into a 486 at 33MHz, and a system with
a default of 4MB RAM. I can't fault the noble effort to keep things
working a decade ago, but at this point in time, there is no valid
justification to continue carrying this driver along.
Note that there is no associated Space.c cleanup here since this
driver was using module_init to hook itself in.

Like the other drivers that were in the ISA i825xx family, the ni52
was rather rare, not widely used, and hence perhaps not as reliable
as the more mainstream ISA drivers that were heavily used. Given
that, it is chosen for retirement at this time as well.

These cards were only available in 8bit format, and in addition
they only had AUI and BNC(10-Base2) interfaces (i.e. no RJ-45).
In fact, they are so rare, that an internet search on these old
cards almost comes up empty, unless the "Micom interlan" name
is used.
This puts them in the equivalent domain as the 3c501, so there
should be no strong opposition to the driver removal, as nobody
is seriously using 3.9+ with 8 bit ISA hardware.
In doing so, the whole "ethernet/racal" category becomes empty,
so we clean up the Makefile/Kconfig and subdir appropriately.

Hi Paul,
Although for me personally it'll be a shock not be able to run the latest
kernel on my legacy system I keep up especially for this ISA card, Andreas
and I cannot seriously oppose removing this driver from the mainline
kernel. It's probably more than a decade and a half ago since anyone used
an NI5010 in production, which makes it time to move on...
By the way, Andreas promises to keep his stable of NI5010 cards forever,
and still has a BNC network in active (if loathed!) service.
Thanks for your work on keeping the kernel net drivers in good order!
Jan-Pascal

I have BNC network too and use it every day. It's mostly used for internet
access, with 3c509 and ne2000 cards (one of the machines has currently uptime
of 439 days, it runs kernel 3.1). I remember using HP pclan cards too and
they worked fine. Too bad they're going away :(
Also got a nice 3c503 card a year ago or so. The driver worked fine after a
simple fix.
I really hate when a working driver is removed from Linux. New drivers are
either missing (alx) or problematic (various rtl8168/8169 variants, some of
which work and some don't). So you can't get any new machine and install
Linux. You also can't get any old machine and install Linux. If you're lucky
and the machine is somehow middle-aged, everything might work...

I have to ack the "any new machine and install Linux" bit, I'm afraid
(or probably in this case it applies to the middle-aged part).
I'm sitting here with an Aspire One probably sold > 3 million times,
and I'm currently still facing at least the following remaining issues:
- USB SDD connection gets broken *at random* on resume,
which sometimes causes severe data corruption of the root partition
[device enumeration?]
- fixed-storage reader resets on every resume, causing the existing mount to get
broken (unless that happens to be XFS-formatted, it's been said)
- charge status indication is unreliable, at least in recent kernels (I
didn't notice this issue in older ones) - sometimes simply indicates
PSU where none is, or indicates battery where PSU is [no idea,
investigation pending]
- rfkill status is problematic (not accurately visible), most likely due
to issues presenting the correct state due to a stubbed-out rfkill WMI
interface during netbook BIOS development (thanks but no thanks Acer)
[I intend to at least brush up on user-side help texts
to clearly spell out these machine-side support issues]
- webcam had a nice OOPS issue the last time I was using it (~3.5?)
- microphone array probably not very well-supported (probably still
needs the "select one channel only" workaround to even get initial
working recording, not to talk about real array support)
- 3.7 seems to show intermediate CPU lockup message (22s) on Intel GPU
[when having heavily scrolled console output such as my build converter?]
- I'm sure I forgot something
(not mentioning the many issues that I had to help fixing already
initially, e.g. missing fan control [new acerhdf], firmware loader resume fix,
r8169[hah, there it is again] resume issue, ...)
And that's the status on one formerly extremely widely visible machine only :(
As to other network drivers being incomplete, via-rhine currently has
semi-working resume [to be submitted].
As to "might work", booting any of a selection of well-known live CDs on various
machines is quite likely to get you a blank (either rhetorically or for
real, e.g. due to broken graphics support), too (happened to me on
several occasions).
Unfortunately I don't know what's specifically productive about my reply here,
but at least this content suggests that something is not ending up quite
as well as it could be.
Possibly the only suitable answer is to try to brush up on the rate of
things to get fixed, but myself I'm working on several things already,
thus eventually one will get there, but most likely much slower than it
should be.
If there is something to be fixed about process (perhaps better official
central machine testing efforts?), then anything fruitful
should definitely be done.

These Fujitsu MB86965 based ISA 10Mbit cards were another of the
relatively rare cards dating from the early 1990s that for one reason
or another didn't seem to get a lot of use in linux. So we retire it
now with a reasonable degree of confidence that it won't impact anyone.

This is another driver for relatively rare 10Mbit hardware that
originated in the early 1990's. So we select it for removal at
this point in time as well.

If you had an etherteam 16i you really didn't want to be using it!
Of course, ICL used it as the standard ethernet card for
a few years!
Not that I kept any of them.
There was a hardware bug that meant that occaisionally
a receive packet would not be indicated to the host (not even
visible in the fifo) until the following packet arrived.
They would also reject received packets if the PHY signalled
a 'collision' even if the CRC was valid.
Most PHY only correctly detected collisions during transmit.
PHYs that correctly detect collision during RX were only
normally needed for MAC repeaters (which would also need
SQE disabled).

This is an area I know all too well, after being author of several 8390
drivers, and maintainer of all 8390 drivers during a large part of their
active lifecycle.
To that end, I can say this with a reasonable degree of confidence.
The drivers deleted here represent the earliest (as in early 1990)
hardware and/or rare hardware. The remaining hardware not deleted
here is the more modern/sane of the lot, with ISA-PnP and jumperless
"soft configuration" like the wd and smc cards had.
The original ne2000 driver (ne.c) gets a pass at this time since
AT/LANTIC based cards that could be both ne2000 or wd-like (with
shared memory) and with jumperless configuration were made in the
mid to late 1990's, and performed reasonably well for their era.

These are old ISA 10Mbit cards from the 1st 1/2 of the 1990s and
required manual jumper settings in order to configure them. Here
we remove them on the premise that they are no longer used in any
modern 3.9+ kernels.

This is another one that makes sense to target for obsolescence, since
it (a)appeared pre-1995, and (b)was rather rare, and (c)did not
really have any statistically significant active linux user base.
Removing this ISA 10Mbit driver support is unlikely to be even noticed
by the user base of 3.9+ linux kernels, especially when the documentation
clearly indicates the vintage with this text:
"...designed to work with all kernels > 1.1.33"

The last update to the Ethernet HowTo (over 10 years ago) listed this:
------------------------
SEEQ 8005
Status: Obsolete, Driver Name: seeq8005
There is little information about the card included in the driver,
and hence little information to be put here. If you have a question,
you are probably best trying to e-mail the driver author as listed
in the source.
It was marked obsolete as of the 2.4 series kernels.
------------------------
If it was obsolete over a decade ago, the situation can not have
improved with the passage of time, so let us act on that. Even with
today's improved search engines, I was unable to locate any real
meaningful information on the ISA implementation of this rare chip.
There are ARM and SGI variants of the driver in tree, but they do
not depend on the original x86 driver source or header file. We
leave those non-x86 drivers to be deleted by the arch maintainers
when they decide to expire those legacy platforms as a whole.

ICL did ship a lot of 8bit ISA ethernet cards with the intel
chipset (might have been sourced from a 3rd party) - clearly
the hardware engineers built the cards without asking the
software guys about which chips were easy to drive.
The amd lance chips were easy (even allowing for some
little errata [1]), the intel one a real PITA.
Fortunately I never had to fix the Intel driver, largely
because I was doing the drivers for sparc systems.
But yes, on a 386/486 none of the PIO based 8-bit ethernet
cards could get anywhere near saturating a 10M LAN.
(Well, maybe just, and with full sized packets.)
Put the cards in a PCI system and it is actually worse.
Not only that, but while doing the slow ISA io the
cpu is spinning - so you really, really wanted a PCI
ethernet card.
So the only systems where you would be running an ISA
ethernet card are old 486 ones (not to be confused
with some new embedded 486 cpu).
So even the later ISA-pnp cards are of limited use.
Trying to use something based on the amd pcnet-isa
(lance on a card) is also fraught - as you need to
get one of the motherboard dma channels into
'cascade mode' - often not supported by the OS.
(And you'll probably fail to run the bloated board
EEPROM config tool as well.)
All best dead and buried!

[1] It really didn't like bus cycles terminating anywhere
near the 256 clocks cycle timeout.

This seems entirely reasonable, pulled thanks Paul.
And thanks even more for the verbose justification text, which I've
added to the merge commit message.
