Unfortunate that Ondrej's comment led folks to focus on the above as if
it was the primary reason.  It was not.  The sheer unusability of it as
a real networking interface in today's world (that I listed) was the
prime motivation for removal.  It was barely useable in the 1995 world,
and I can't imagine it has got better with age.

Getting rid of possibly misleading messages like the printk in the i7
user's messages is just a fringe benefit.  I can remove the text:

	"-- it is causing issues in some distros, and while
	 that might be fixable, it is just not worth it."

from the commit log[1] and I think the remaining description still stands
on its own as being justified.

I would suspect that is the case here though.  Based on its limitations
(one operation at a time please) - I can't imagine that anyone anywhere
is running one (with the possible exception of one or maybe two informal
museusms?).

It has been at least 15 years since I've seen one, and google couldn't
find me a picture, so I was going on memory.  3c501 definitely still had a
lot of discrete TTL chips for bus glue logic then, since I'm sure it was
a busy looking board.

I've never seen one of those, and I count myself lucky.  :)

MCA was fortunately reasonably bounded in time -- i.e. it was confined
largely to things unfit for any use today.  EISA is somewhat the same.

Per Dave's comments, we'd have to restrict ISA in this context to mean
ISA _drivers_ that support _only_ physical pluggable 8/16bit ISA bus
cards.  With possible inclusion of onboard chips that were only deployed
on ancient motherboards well over 10 years ago -- e.g. onboard aha154x.c
and etherexpress on lp486e board type stuff.  Maybe that is what you
implicitly meant anyways?

But since ISA isn't as nicely bounded in time, I could easily envision
someone with a 1GHz socket370 P3 and an ISA SMC-Ultra PnP connected to a
cable modem in a closet somewhere.  Sure, it is old, but it could be
still doing the job of a _reliable_ workhorse.

Replace SMC-ultra with 3c501 in the above, and the story falls apart and
becomes laughable.  This is with no disrespect for the 3c501 driver.  It
is purely from the hardware being of a different era.  Both ISA, but one
is 10-15 years newer than the other.

If we throw away the ISA card drivers all at once, we'll end up keeping
some things well past their best before date, and throwing out some
stuff that might actually still be used by real people.  This isn't at
all fatal in itself, but something to consider when weighing against the
value of a consistent "all this stuff goes away on day X" message.

That, and the inevitable inability to get a consensus "yes" for a large
removal of ISA _card_ drivers from a decision committee, made me think
that piecemeal was better than no action.  If folks think I'm wrong on
the consensus part, I will gladly start forming an ISA _card_ driver
list of candidates for some yet to be determined scheduled removal...

Oh sh**, even if I could understand the arguments for the MCA part I 
could not
  agree anymore on this.
I you go to this road, kill the m68k architecture and four or five more and
remove half or more of the drivers.
"meaningless printk" ? kill the printk, not the driver. "confuse users" ?
which users ? What you call a users in you comments are people which 
only use
mouse and graphic environments and for which printk are not for ...
Your whole patchset is build around the philosophy perfectly resumed by your
words:
"xxx is being removed, since the 20year old hardware simply isn't capable of
meeting today's software demands on CPU and memory resources."
Such subjective positions are not valid technicals arguments.
Following Linux since twenty years, I could say without making a big mistake
that this is not the Linux way of doing things. Linux would never be 
what it is
today in term of pure code architecture if the easy way of removing 
"disturbing"
and "obsolete in today standards" hardware support code was the way of doing
things.

But perhaps my old way of viewing things is no longer compatible with 
the new
  generations or in what Linux is going to be...

Emmanuel.

PS: My over reaction is PARTLY caused because of special historic symbol
3c501 hardware represent. It was one of the only (if not the only one) 
ethernet
card supported by the Apollo platform and DomainOS. A great and 
important part
of the computer / Unix history.

* [PATCH] ipv6/exthdrs: strict Pad1 and PadN check
From: Eldad Zack @ 2012-05-20 11:59 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: David S. Miller, Alexey Kuznetsov, James Morris,

  Cc: netdev, linux-kernel, Eldad Zack

The following tightens the padding check from commit
c1412fce7eccae62b4de22494f6ab3ff8a90c0c6 :

* Take into account combinations of consecutive Pad1 and PadN.

* Catch the corner case of when only padding is present in the
  header, when the extention header length is 0 (i.e., 8 bytes).
  In this case, the header would have exactly 6 bytes of padding:

+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
:  Next Header  : Hdr Ext Len=0 :                               :
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+                               +
:                        Padding (Pad1 or PadN)                 :
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

This fixes a logical error in the code.  Minidriver constructs with an
interface whitelist should not use qmi_wwan_bind_gobi.  It was made to
prevent binding to the serial interfaces on Gobi devices, and serves no
useful purpose when used with a whitelist.  The change is a no-op for
the ZTE MF820D, but is important for new devices.

Thanks for fixing this.

  To: bjorn; +Cc: gregkh, linux-usb, netdev, linux-kernel, Andrew Bird

Change the forced interface 4 whitelist to use the generic shared
binder instead of the Gobi specific one. Certain ZTE devices
(K3520-Z & K3765-Z) don't work with the Gobi version, but function
quite happily with the generic. This has been tested with the following
devices:
K3520-Z
K3565-Z
K3765-Z
K4505-Z
It hasn't been tested with the ZTE MF820D, which is the only other
device that uses this whitelist at present. Although Bjorn doesn't
expect any problems, any testing with that device would be appreciated.

Add the ZTE (Vodafone) K3765-Z to the whitelist. This requires the
previous patch to make the whitelist with forced interface 4 generic
or the device fails to initialise. After applying this patch and
loading the Option driver without usb-modeswitch's bind all
interfaces trick, a wwan0 net interface and /dev/cdc-wdm0 device
file were created. Using Bjorn Mork's perl connection script a
connection was made to a mobile network using QMI and the network
interface's IPv4 address was configured OK.

* [PATCH v6] tilegx network driver: initial support
From: Chris Metcalf @ 2012-05-20  4:42 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Ben Hutchings, David Miller, arnd, linux-kernel, netdev
In-Reply-To: <1336744445.2874.57.camel@bwh-desktop.uk.solarflarecom.com>

This change adds support for the tilegx network driver based on the
GXIO IORPC support in the tilegx software stack, using the on-chip
mPIPE packet processing engine.

* [PATCH] net/ipv4: replace simple_strtoul with kstrtoul
From: Eldad Zack @ 2012-05-20  0:13 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: David S. Miller, Alexey Kuznetsov, James Morris,
	Hideaki YOSHIFUJI, Patrick McHardy
  Cc: netdev, linux-kernel, Eldad Zack

Replace simple_strtoul with kstrtoul in three similar occurrences, all setup
handlers:
* route.c: set_rhash_entries
* tcp.c: set_thash_entries
* udp.c: set_uhash_entries

Also check if the conversion failed.

The __setup macro should follow the corresponding setup handler.

But I changed the Subject line to have a more appropriate prefix,

I don't think ISA is ever going to be something we can completely
eradicate.

Bits of ISA'ness show up everywhere, from random PC southbridges
to specialized busses shipped on 64-bit sparcs for 8-bit devices
like floppies and serial ports.

Therefore, unlike MCA, ISA is more of a kind of entity we'll have to
eradicate piecemeal I think.

Hello Joe, et al,

Effectively, I was using a hp100 but this system is retired since 2 years now (but I keep it just in case of major failure 
of the new box).

Cheers,
