A rewrite was -long overdue, and the current version addresses the following concerns: - - (1) extensive kernel changes between 2.4 and 2.6. - (2) deprecated PCMCIA support outside the kernel. - -All the USE_BIOS code has been ripped out. It was never used, and could -not have worked anyway. The USE_DMA code is likewise gone. Many thanks -to YOKOTA Hiroshi (nsp_cs driver) and David Hinds (qlogic_cs driver) for -the code fragments I shamelessly adapted for this work. Thanks also to -Christoph Hellwig for his patient tutelage while I stumbled about. - -The Symbios Logic 53c500 chip was used in the "newer" (circa 1997) version -of the New Media Bus Toaster PCMCIA SCSI controller. Presumably there are -other products using this chip, but I've never laid eyes (much less hands) -on one. - -Through the years, there have been a number of downloads of the pcmcia-cs -version of this driver, and I guess it worked for those users. It worked -for Tom Corner, and it works for me. Your mileage will probably vary. - ---Bob Tracy (rct@frus.com) |
