      [PATCH] USB: URB_ASYNC_UNLINK flag removed from the kernel · b375a049
      Alan Stern 提交于
      29 July 2005, Cambridge, MA:
      
      This afternoon Alan Stern submitted a patch to remove the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK
      flag from the Linux kernel.  Mr. Stern explained, "This flag is a relic
      from an earlier, less-well-designed system.  For over a year it hasn't
      been used for anything other than printing warning messages."
      
      An anonymous spokesman for the Linux kernel development community
      commented, "This is exactly the sort of thing we see happening all the
      time.  As the kernel evolves, support for old techniques and old code can
      be jettisoned and replaced by newer, better approaches.  Proprietary
      operating systems do not have the freedom or flexibility to change so
      quickly."
      
      Mr. Stern, a staff member at Harvard University's Rowland Institute who
      works on Linux only as a hobby, noted that the patch (labelled as548) did
      not update two files, keyspan.c and option.c, in the USB drivers' "serial"
      subdirectory.  "Those files need more extensive changes," he remarked.
      "They examine the status field of several URBs at times when they're not
      supposed to.  That will need to be fixed before the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK flag
      is removed."
      
      Greg Kroah-Hartman, the kernel maintainer responsible for overseeing all
      of Linux's USB drivers, did not respond to our inquiries or return our
      calls.  His only comment was "Applied, thanks."

      [PATCH] usb suspend updates (interface suspend) · 27d72e85
      David Brownell 提交于
      This is the first of a few installments of PM API updates to match the
      recent switch to "pm_message_t".  This installment primarily affects
      USB device drivers (for USB interfaces), and it changes the handful of
      drivers which currently implement suspend methods:
      
          - <linux/usb.h> and usbcore, signature change
      
          - Some drivers only changed the signature, net effect this just
            shuts up "sparse -Wbitwise":
      	* hid-core
      	* stir4200
      
          - Two network drivers did that, and also grew slightly more
            featureful suspend code ... they now properly shut down
            their activities.  (As should stir4200...)
      	* pegasus
      	* usbnet
      
      Note that the Wake-On-Lan (WOL) support in pegasus doesn't yet work; looks
      to me like it's missing a request to turn it on, vs just configuring it.
      The ASIX code in usbnet also has WOL hooks that are ready to use; untested.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
