staging: Remove the drivers for the Unisys s-Par

2022-04-20T16:39:04Z

The Unisys sub-tree of drivers/staging contains three drivers for the "Unisys Secure Partition" (s-Par(R)): visorhba, visorinput, visornic. They have no maintainers, in fact the only one that is listed in MAINTAINERS has an unreacheable email address. During 2021 and 2022 several patches have been submitted to these drivers but nobody at Unisys cared of reviewing the changes. Probably, also the "sparmaintainer" internal list of unisys.com is not anymore read by interested Unisys' engineers. Therefore, remove the drivers/staging/unisys directory and delete the relevant entries in the MAINTAINERS, Kconfig, Makefile files, then remove also the drivers/visorbus directory which is not anymore needed (it contained the driver for the virtualized bus for the Unisys s-Par firmware).

staging: add missing SPDX lines to Makefile files

2019-04-03T09:10:15Z

There are a few remaining drivers/staging/*/Makefile files that do not have SPDX identifiers in them. Add the correct GPL-2.0 identifier to them to make scanning tools happy. Reviewed-by: Mukesh Ojha Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

drivers: visorbus: move driver out of staging

2017-12-08T15:37:50Z

Move the visorbus driver out of staging (drivers/staging/unisys/visorbus) and to drivers/visorbus. Modify the configuration and makefiles so they now reference the new location. The s-Par header file visorbus.h that is referenced by all s-Par drivers, is being moved into include/linux. Signed-off-by: David Kershner Reviewed-by: Tim Sell Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

staging: unisys: visorhid: rename to visorinput

2015-10-04T08:53:34Z

This visorhid driver provides a Human Interface Device, but is not at all using HID, the protocol. It's a plain input driver, so for clarity, it is being renamed to visorinput. Signed-off-by: Tim Sell Signed-off-by: Benjamin Romer Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

staging: unisys: Add s-Par visorhba

2015-09-29T02:11:45Z

This driver create a host bus adapter device when s-Par sends a device create message to create a storage adapter on the visorbus. When the message is received by visorbus, the visorhba_probe function is called and the hba device is created and managed by the visorhba driver.

staging: unisys: add visorhid driver

2015-09-21T01:52:38Z

This driver provides mouse and keyboard input to Unisys s-Par Partition Desktop application. This device is created by the visorbus device. Signed-off-by: Erik Arfvidson Signed-off-by: Benjamin Romer Signed-off-by: Tim Sell Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

staging: unisys: Add s-Par visornic ethernet driver

2015-06-16T21:34:55Z

This driver creates a network device when s-Par sends a device create message to create network adapter on the visorbus. When the message is received by visorbus, the visornic_probe function is called and the netdev device is created and managed by the visornic driver.

staging: unisys: remove visorutil from top level Makefile

The visorutil directory is still mentioned in the top level makefile for the Unisys drivers, so remove it. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Romer Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

staging: unisys: move visorchipset files to visorbus

2015-05-08T13:26:01Z

Move visorchipset_main.c and visorchipset.h to visorbus/visorchipset.c and visorbus/visorbus_private.h. This leaves an empty visorchipset directory which can also be destroyed. As a result of this patch the visorchipset init code now calls the visorbus_init() directly. Similarily the visorchipset exit code now cleans up by calling visorbus_exit(). No other functional changes were made. Signed-off-by: Prarit Bhargava Signed-off-by: Benjamin Romer Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

staging: unisys: Move visorchannel into visorbus

2015-05-08T13:25:58Z

visorchannel seems to be a necessary component to visorbus and can never function as a standalone module. Let's treat it like a visorbus feature that is always enabled. Signed-off-by: Don Zickus Signed-off-by: Benjamin Romer Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
