[netdrvr] Remove Linux-specific changelogs from several Becker template drivers
When in-kernel net drivers branched from Donald Becker's vanilla driver set, in the days before BitKeeper and git, a driver changelog was maintained in the driver source code. These days, the kernel's changelog is far superior and much more accurate, so the in-driver changelogs are removed. Another relic of the Becker/kernel split was version numbering, using "foo-LKx.y.z" notation, resulting in weird version numbers like "1.17b-LK1.1.9". These drivers are for older hardware, and see few changes these days, so the version numbers were all bumped to something more simple. Finally, in xircom_tulip_cb specifically, an additional cleanup removes the always-enabled CARDBUS cpp macro. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

Linux kernel modifications:
|
||||
|
||||
Version 1.0.1:
|
||||
- Spinlock fixes
|
||||
- Bug fixes and better intr performance (Tjeerd)
|
||||
Version 1.0.2:
|
||||
- Now reads correct MAC address from eeprom
|
||||
Version 1.0.3:
|
||||
- Eliminate redundant priv->tx_full flag
|
||||
- Call netif_start_queue from dev->tx_timeout
|
||||
- wmb() in start_tx() to flush data
|
||||
- Update Tx locking
|
||||
- Clean up PCI enable (davej)
|
||||
Version 1.0.4:
|
||||
- Merge Donald Becker's natsemi.c version 1.07
|
||||
Version 1.0.5:
|
||||
- { fill me in }
|
||||
Version 1.0.6:
|
||||
* ethtool support (jgarzik)
|
||||
* Proper initialization of the card (which sometimes
|
||||
fails to occur and leaves the card in a non-functional
|
||||
state). (uzi)
|
||||
|
||||
* Some documented register settings to optimize some
|
||||
of the 100Mbit autodetection circuitry in rev C cards. (uzi)
|
||||
|
||||
* Polling of the PHY intr for stuff like link state
|
||||
change and auto- negotiation to finally work properly. (uzi)
|
||||
|
||||
* One-liner removal of a duplicate declaration of
|
||||
netdev_error(). (uzi)
|
||||
|
||||
Version 1.0.7: (Manfred Spraul)
|
||||
* pci dma
|
||||
* SMP locking update
|
||||
* full reset added into tx_timeout
|
||||
* correct multicast hash generation (both big and little endian)
|
||||
[copied from a natsemi driver version
|
||||
from Myrio Corporation, Greg Smith]
|
||||
* suspend/resume
|
||||
|
||||
version 1.0.8 (Tim Hockin <thockin@sun.com>)
|
||||
* ETHTOOL_* support
|
||||
* Wake on lan support (Erik Gilling)
|
||||
* MXDMA fixes for serverworks
|
||||
* EEPROM reload
|
||||
|
||||
version 1.0.9 (Manfred Spraul)
|
||||
* Main change: fix lack of synchronize
|
||||
netif_close/netif_suspend against a last interrupt
|
||||
or packet.
|
||||
* do not enable superflous interrupts (e.g. the
|
||||
drivers relies on TxDone - TxIntr not needed)
|
||||
* wait that the hardware has really stopped in close
|
||||
and suspend.
|
||||
* workaround for the (at least) gcc-2.95.1 compiler
|
||||
problem. Also simplifies the code a bit.
|
||||
* disable_irq() in tx_timeout - needed to protect
|
||||
against rx interrupts.
|
||||
* stop the nic before switching into silent rx mode
|
||||
for wol (required according to docu).
|
||||
|
||||
version 1.0.10:
|
||||
* use long for ee_addr (various)
|
||||
* print pointers properly (DaveM)
|
||||
* include asm/irq.h (?)
|
||||
|
||||
version 1.0.11:
|
||||
* check and reset if PHY errors appear (Adrian Sun)
|
||||
* WoL cleanup (Tim Hockin)
|
||||
* Magic number cleanup (Tim Hockin)
|
||||
* Don't reload EEPROM on every reset (Tim Hockin)
|
||||
* Save and restore EEPROM state across reset (Tim Hockin)
|
||||
* MDIO Cleanup (Tim Hockin)
|
||||
* Reformat register offsets/bits (jgarzik)
|
||||
|
||||
version 1.0.12:
|
||||
* ETHTOOL_* further support (Tim Hockin)
|
||||
|
||||
version 1.0.13:
|
||||
* ETHTOOL_[G]EEPROM support (Tim Hockin)
|
||||
|
||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
version 1.0.14:
|
||||
* Cleanup some messages and autoneg in ethtool (Tim Hockin)
|
||||
|
||||
version 1.0.15:
|
||||

||||
* create a function for rx refill (Manfred Spraul)
|
||||
* combine drain_ring and init_ring (Manfred Spraul)
|
||||

|
||||
* hands_off instead of playing with netif_device_{de,a}ttach
|
||||
(Manfred Spraul)
|
||||
* be sure to write the MAC back to the chip (Manfred Spraul)
|
||||
* lengthen EEPROM timeout, and always warn about timeouts
|
||||
(Manfred Spraul)
|
||||
* comments update (Manfred)
|
||||
* do the right thing on a phy-reset (Manfred and Tim)
