Remove long-unmaintained ftape driver subsystem.

It's bitrotten, long unmaintained, long hidden under BROKEN_ON_SMP,
etc.  As scheduled in feature-removal-schedule.txt, and ack'd several
times on lkml.

-
-which contains further information about ftape. Please cross check
-this WWW address against the address given (if any) in the MAINTAINERS
-file located in the top level directory of the Linux kernel source
-tree.
-
-NOTE: This is an unmaintained set of drivers, and it is not guaranteed to work.
-If you are interested in taking over maintenance, contact Claus-Justus Heine

-
-A minus 1. Ftape documentation
-==============================
-
-Unluckily, the ftape-HOWTO is out of date. This really needs to be
-changed. Up to date documentation as well as recent development
-versions of ftape and useful links to related topics can be found at
-the ftape home page at
-
-http://ftape.dot-heine.de/
-
-*******************************************************************************
-
-A. Changes
-==========
-
-1. Goal
-   ~~~~
-   The goal of all that incompatibilities was to give ftape an interface
-   that resembles the interface provided by SCSI tape drives as close
-   as possible. Thus any Unix backup program that is known to work
-   with SCSI tape drives should also work.
-
-   The concept of a fixed block size for read/write transfers is
-   rather unrelated to this SCSI tape compatibility at the file system
-   interface level. It developed out of a feature of zftape, a
-   block wise user transparent on-the-fly compression. That compression
-   support will not be dropped in future releases for compatibility
-   reasons with previous releases of zftape.
-
-2. I/O Block Size
-   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-   The block size defaults to 10k which is the default block size of
-   GNU tar.
-
-   The block size can be tuned either during kernel configuration or
-   at runtime with the MTIOCTOP ioctl using the MTSETBLK operation
-   (i.e. do "mt -f /dev/qft0" setblk #BLKSZ). A block size of 0
-   switches to variable block size mode i.e. "mt setblk 0" switches
-   off the block size restriction. However, this disables zftape's
-   built in on-the-fly compression which doesn't work with variable
-   block size mode.
-
-   The BLKSZ parameter must be given as a byte count and must be a
-   multiple of 32k or 0, i.e. use "mt setblk 32768" to switch to a
-   block size of 32k.
-
-   The typical symptom of a block size mismatch is an "invalid
-   argument" error message.
-
-3. Write Access when not at EOD (End Of Data) or BOT (Begin Of Tape)
-   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-   zftape (the file system interface of ftape-3.x) denies write access
-   to the tape cartridge when it isn't positioned either at BOT or
-   EOD.
-
-4. Formatting
-   ~~~~~~~~~~
-   ftape DOES support formatting of floppy tape cartridges. You need the
-   `ftformat' program that is shipped with the modules version of ftape.
-   Please get the latest version of ftape from
-
-   ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/kernel/tapes
-
-   or from the ftape home page at
-
-   http://ftape.dot-heine.de/
-
-   `ftformat' is contained in the `./contrib/' subdirectory of that
-   separate ftape package.
-
-5. Interchanging cartridges with other operating systems
-   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-   The internal emulation of Unix tape device file marks has changed
-   completely. ftape now uses the volume table segment as specified
-   by the QIC-40/80/3010/3020/113 standards to emulate file marks. As
-   a consequence there is limited support to interchange cartridges
-   with other operating systems.
-
-   To be more precise: ftape will detect volumes written by other OS's
-   programs and other OS's programs will detect volumes written by
-   ftape.
-
-   However, it isn't possible to extract the data dumped to the tape
-   by some MSDOS program with ftape. This exceeds the scope of a
-   kernel device driver. If you need such functionality, then go ahead
-   and write a user space utility that is able to do that. ftape already
-   provides all kernel level support necessary to do that.
-
-*******************************************************************************
-
-B. Debugging Output
-   ================
-
-1. Introduction
-   ~~~~~~~~~~~~
-   The ftape driver can be very noisy in that is can print lots of
-   debugging messages to the kernel log files and the system console.
-   While this is useful for debugging it might be annoying during
-   normal use and enlarges the size of the driver by several kilobytes.
-
-   To reduce the size of the driver you can trim the maximal amount of
-   debugging information available during kernel configuration. Please
-   refer to the kernel configuration script and its on-line help
-   functionality.
-
-   The amount of debugging output maps to the "tracing" boot time
-   option and the "ft_tracing" modules option as follows:
-
-   0              bugs
-   1              + errors (with call-stack dump)
-   2              + warnings
-   3              + information
-   4              + more information
-   5              + program flow
-   6              + fdc/dma info
-   7              + data flow
-   8              + everything else
-
-2. Tuning the debugging output
-   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-   To reduce the amount of debugging output printed to the system
-   console you can
-
-   i)  trim the debugging output at run-time with
-
-       mt -f /dev/nqft0 setdensity #DBGLVL
-
-       where "#DBGLVL" is a number between 0 and 9
-
-   ii) trim the debugging output at module load time with
-
-       modprobe ftape ft_tracing=#DBGLVL
-
-       Of course, this applies only if you have configured ftape to be
-       compiled as a module.
-
-   iii) trim the debugging output during system boot time. Add the
-       following to the kernel command line:
-
-       ftape=#DBGLVL,tracing
-
-       Please refer also to the next section if you don't know how to
-       set boot time parameters.
-
-*******************************************************************************
-
-C. Boot and load time configuration
-   ================================
-
-1. Setting boot time parameters
-   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
-   Assuming that you use lilo, the LI)nux LO)ader, boot time kernel
-   parameters can be set by adding a line
-
-   append some_kernel_boot_time_parameter
-
-   to `/etc/lilo.conf' or at real boot time by typing in the options
-   at the prompt provided by LILO. I can't give you advice on how to
-   specify those parameters with other loaders as I don't use them.
-
-   For ftape, each "some_kernel_boot_time_parameter" looks like
-   "ftape=value,option". As an example, the debugging output can be
-   increased with
-
-   ftape=4,tracing
-
-   NOTE: the value precedes the option name.
-
-2. Module load time parameters
-   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-   Module parameters can be specified either directly when invoking
-   the program 'modprobe' at the shell prompt:
-
-   modprobe ftape ft_tracing=4
-
-   or by editing the file `/etc/modprobe.conf' in which case they take
-   effect each time when the module is loaded with `modprobe' (please
-   refer to the respective manual pages). Thus, you should add a line
-
-   options ftape ft_tracing=4
-
-   to `/etc/modprobe.conf` if you intend to increase the debugging
-   output of the driver.
-
-
-3. Ftape boot- and load time options
-   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-   i.   Controlling the amount of debugging output
-        DBGLVL has to be replaced by a number between 0 and 8.
-
-        module                 |  kernel command line
-        -----------------------|----------------------
-        ft_tracing=DBGLVL      |  ftape=DBGLVL,tracing
-
-   ii.  Hardware setup
-        BASE is the base address of your floppy disk controller,
-        IRQ and DMA give its interrupt and DMA channel, respectively.
-        BOOL is an integer, "0" means "no"; any other value means
-        "yes". You don't need to specify anything if connecting your tape
-        drive to the standard floppy disk controller. All of these
-        values have reasonable defaults. The defaults can be modified
-        during kernel configuration, i.e. while running "make config",
-        "make menuconfig" or "make xconfig" in the top level directory
-        of the Linux kernel source tree. Please refer also to the on
-        line documentation provided during that kernel configuration
-        process.
-
-        ft_probe_fc10 is set to a non-zero value if you wish for ftape to
-        probe for a Colorado FC-10 or FC-20 controller.
-
-        ft_mach2 is set to a non-zero value if you wish for ftape to probe
-        for a Mountain MACH-2 controller.
-
-        module                 |  kernel command line
-        -----------------------|----------------------
-        ft_fdc_base=BASE       |  ftape=BASE,ioport
-        ft_fdc_irq=IRQ         |  ftape=IRQ,irq
-        ft_fdc_dma=DMA         |  ftape=DMA,dma
-        ft_probe_fc10=BOOL     |  ftape=BOOL,fc10
-        ft_mach2=BOOL          |  ftape=BOOL,mach2
-        ft_fdc_threshold=THR   |  ftape=THR,threshold
-        ft_fdc_rate_limit=RATE |  ftape=RATE,datarate
-
-4. Example kernel parameter setting
-   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
-   To configure ftape to probe for a Colorado FC-10/FC-20 controller
-   and to increase the amount of debugging output a little bit, add
-   the following line to `/etc/lilo.conf':
-
-   append ftape=1,fc10 ftape=4,tracing
-
-5. Example module parameter setting
-   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-   To do the same, but with ftape compiled as a loadable kernel
-   module, add the following line to `/etc/modprobe.conf':
-
-   options ftape ft_probe_fc10=1 ft_tracing=4

-config ZFTAPE
-        tristate "Zftape, the VFS interface"
-        depends on FTAPE
-        ---help---
-          Normally, you want to say Y or M. DON'T say N here or you
-          WON'T BE ABLE TO USE YOUR FLOPPY TAPE DRIVE.
-
-          The ftape module itself no longer contains the routines necessary
-          to interface with the kernel VFS layer (i.e. to actually write data
-          to and read data from the tape drive).  Instead the file system
-          interface (i.e. the hardware independent part of the driver) has
-          been moved to a separate module.
-
-          To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
-          module will be called zftape.
-
-          Regardless of whether you say Y or M here, an additional runtime
-          loadable module called `zft-compressor' which contains code to
-          support user transparent on-the-fly compression based on Ross
-          William's lzrw3 algorithm will be produced.  If you have enabled the
-          kernel module loader (i.e. have said Y to "Kernel module loader
-          support", above) then `zft-compressor' will be loaded
-          automatically by zftape when needed.
-
-          Despite its name, zftape does NOT use compression by default.

-          If unsure leave this at its default value, i.e. 10240. Note that
-          you specify only the default block size here. The block size can be
-          changed at run time using the MTSETBLK tape operation with the
-          MTIOCTOP ioctl (i.e. with "mt -f /dev/qft0 setblk #BLKSZ" from the
-          shell command line).
-
-          The probably most striking difference between zftape and previous
-          versions of ftape is the fact that all data must be written or read
-          in multiples of a fixed block size. The block size defaults to
-          10240 which is what GNU tar uses. The values for the block size
-          should be either 1 or multiples of 1024 up to a maximum value of
-          63488 (i.e. 62 K). If you specify `1' then zftape's builtin
-          compression will be disabled.
-
-          Reasonable values are `10240' (GNU tar's default block size),
-          `5120' (afio's default block size), `32768' (default block size some
-          backup programs assume for SCSI tape drives) or `1' (no restriction

-
-          Ftape can print lots of debugging messages to the system console

-Some notes for ftape users with PCI motherboards:
-=================================================
-
-The problem:
-------------
-
-There have been some problem reports from people using PCI-bus based
-systems getting overrun errors.
-I wasn't able to reproduce these until I ran ftape on a Intel Plato
-(Premiere PCI II) motherboard with bios version 1.00.08AX1.
-It turned out that if GAT (Guaranteed Access Timing) is enabled (?)
-ftape gets a lot of overrun errors.
-The problem disappears when disabling GAT in the bios.
-Note that Intel removed this setting (permanently disabled) from the
-1.00.10AX1 bios !
-
-It looks like that if GAT is enabled there are often large periods
-(greater than 120 us !??) on the ISA bus that the DMA controller cannot
-service the floppy disk controller.
-I cannot imagine this being acceptable in a decent PCI implementation.
-Maybe this is a `feature' of the chipset. I can only speculate why
-Intel choose to remove the option from the latest Bios...
-
-The lesson of this all is that there may be other motherboard
-implementations having the same of similar problems.
-If you experience a lot of overrun errors during a backup to tape,
-see if there is some setting in the Bios that may influence the
-bus timing.
-
-I judge this a hardware problem and not a limitation of ftape ;-)
-My DOS backup software seems to be suffering from the same problems
-and even refuses to run at 1 Mbps !
-Ftape will reduce the data-rate from 1 Mbps to 500 Kbps if the number
-of overrun errors on a track exceeds a threshold.
-
-
-Possible solutions:
--------------------
-
-Some of the problems were solved by upgrading the (flash) bios.
-Other suggest that it has to do with the FDC being on the PCI
-bus, but that is not the case with the Intel Premiere II boards.
-[If upgrading the bios doesn't solve the problem you could try
-a floppy disk controller on the isa-bus].
-
-Here is a list of systems and recommended BIOS settings:
-
-
-        Intel Premiere PCI (Revenge):
-
-Bios version 1.00.09.AF2 is reported to work.
-
-
-
-        Intel Premiere PCI II (Plato):
-
-Bios version 1.00.10.AX1 and version 11 beta are ok.
-If using version 1.00.08.AX1, GAT must be disabled !
-
-
-
-        ASUS PCI/I-SP3G:
-
-Preferred settings:     ISA-GAT-mode : disabled
-                        DMA-linebuffer-mode : standard
-                        ISA-masterbuffer-mode : standard
-
-
-        DELL Dimension XPS P90
-
-Bios version A2 is reported to be broken, while bios version A5 works.
-You can get a flash bios upgrade from http://www.dell.com
-
-
-To see if you're having the GAT problem, try making a backup
-under DOS. If it's very slow and often repositions you're
-probably having this problem.

-Hey, Emacs, we're -*-Text-*- mode!
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-3.04d 25/11/97 =====
-- The correct pre-processor statement for "else if" is "#elif" not
-  "elsif".
-- Need to call zft_reset_position() when overwriting cartridges
-  previously written with ftape-2.x, sftape, or ancient
-  (pre-ftape-3.x) versions of zftape.
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-3.04c 16/11/97 =====
-- fdc_probe() was calling DUMPREGS with a result length of "1" which
-  was just fine. Undo previous change.
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-3.04b 14/11/97 =====
-
-- patches/2.x.x/floppy.c.diff was somewhat broken, releasing i/o
-  regions it never had allocated.
-- fdc_probe() was calling DUMPREGS with a result length of "1" instead
-  of "10"
-- Writing deleted data marks if the first segents on track zero are
-  should work now.
-- ftformat should now be able to handle those cases where the tape
-  drive sets the read only status bit (QIC-40/80 cartridges with
-  QIC-3010/3020 tape drives) because the header segment is damaged.
-- the MTIOCFTCMD ioctl may now be issued by the superuser ONLY.
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-3.04a 12/11/97 =====
-- Fix an "infinite loop can't be killed by signal" bug in
-  ftape_get_drive_status(). Only relevant when trying to access
-  buggy/misconfigured hardware
-- Try to compensate a bug in the HP Colorado T3000's firmware: it
-  doesn't set the write protect bit for QIC80/QIC40 cartridges.
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-3.04 06/11/97 =====
-- If positioning with fast seeking fails fall back to a slow seek
-  before giving up.
-- (nearly) no retries on "no data errors" when verifying after
-  formatting. Improved tuning of the bad sector map after formatting.
-- the directory layout has changed again to allow for easier kernel
-  integration
-- Module parameter "ftape_tracing" now is called "ft_tracing" because
-  the "ftape_tracing" variable has the version checksum attached to it.
-- `/proc/ftape' interface for 2.0.* kernels. `/proc/ftape' no longer
-  is a directory but a file that contains all the information formerly
-  provided in separate files under the `/proc/ftape/' directory.
-- Most of the configuration options have been prefixed by "CONFIG_FT_"
-  in preparation of the kernel inclusion. The Makefiles under
-  "./ftape/" should be directly usable by the kernel.
-- The MODVERSIONS stuff is now auto-detected.
-- Broke backslashed multi line options in MCONFIG into separate lines
-  using GNU-make's "+=" feature.
-- The html and dvi version of the manual is now installed under
-  '/usr/doc/ftape` with 'make install`
-- New SMP define in MCONFIG. ftape works with SMP if this is defined.
-- attempt to cope with "excessive overrun errors" by gradually
-  increasing FDC FIFO threshold. But this doesn't seem to have too
-  much an effect.
-- New load time configuration parameter "ft_fdc_rate_limit". If you
-  encounter too many overrun errors with a 2Mb controller then you
-  might want to set this to 1000.
-- overrun errors on the last sector in a segment sometimes result in
-  a zero DMA residue. Dunno why, but compensate for it.
-- there were still fdc_read() timeout errors. I think I have fixed it
-  now, please FIXME.
-- Sometimes ftape_write() failed to re-start the tape drive when a
-  segment without a good sector was reached ("wait for empty segment
-  failed"). This is fixed. Especially important for > QIC-3010.
-- sftape (aka ftape-2.x) has vanished. I didn't work on it for
-  ages. It is probably still possible to use the old code with
-  ftape-3.04, if one really needs it (BUT RECOMPILE IT)
-- zftape no longer alters the contents of already existing volume
-  table entries, which makes it possible to fill in missing fields,
-  like time stamps using some user space program.
-- ./contrib/vtblc/ contains such a program.
-- new perl script ./contrib/scripts/listtape that list the contents of a
-  floppy tape cartridge parsing the output of "mt volinfo" + "mt fsf"
-- the MTWEOF implementation has changed a little bit (after I had a
-  look at amanda). Calling MTWEOF while the tape is still held open
-  after writing something to the tape now will terminate the current
-  volume, and start a new one at the current position.
-- the volume table maintained by zftape now is a doubly linked list
-  that grows dynamically as needed.
-
-  formatting floppy tape cartridges
-  ---------------------------------
-  * there is a new user space formatting program that does most of the
-    dirty work in user space (auto-detect, computing the sector
-    coordinates, adjusting time stamps and statistics). It has a
-    simple command line interface.
-  * ftape-format.o has vanished, it has been folded into the low level
-    ftape.o module, and the ioctl interface into zftape.o. Most of the
-    complicated stuff has been moved to user space, so there was no
-    need for a separate module anymore.
-  * there is a new ioctl MTIOCFTCMD that sends a bare QIC-117 command
-    to the tape drive.
-  * there is a new mmap() feature to map the dma buffers into user
-    space to be used by the user level formatting program.
-  * Formatting of yet unformatted or totally degaussed cartridges
-    should be possible now. FIXME.
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-3.03b, <forgot the exact date> ====
-
-ftape-3.03b was released as a beta release only. Its main new feature
-was support of the DITTO-2GB drive. This was made possible by reverse
-engineering done by <fill in his name> after Iomega failed to support
-ftape. Although they had promised to do so (this makes me feel a bit
-sad and uncomfortable about Iomega).
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-3.03a, 22/05/97 ====
-
-- Finally fixed auto-un-loading of modules for kernels > 2.1.18
-- Add an "uninstall" target to the Makefile
-- removed the kdtime hack
-- texi2www didn't properly set the back-reference from a footnote back
-  to the regular text.
-
-  zftape specific
-  ---------------
-  * hide the old compression map volume. Taper doesn't accept the
-    presence of non-Taper volumes and Taper-written volume on the same
-    tape.
-  * EOD (End Of Data) handling was still broken: the expected behavior
-    is to return a zero byte count at the first attempt to read past
-    EOD, return a zero byte count at the second attempt to read past
-    EOD and THEN return -EIO.
-  
-  ftape-format specific
-  ---------------------
-  * Detection of QIC-40 cartridges in select_tape_format() was broken
-    and made it impossible to format QIC-3010/3020 cartridges.
-  * There are strange "TR-1 Extra" cartridges out there which weren't
-    detected properly because the don't strictly conform to the
-    QIC-80, Rev. N, spec.
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-3.03, 30/04/97 =====
-
-- Removed kernel integration code from the package. I plan to provide
-  a package that can be integrated into the stock kernel separately
-  (hopefully soon).
-  As a result, a simple `make' command now will build everything.
-- ALL compile time configuration options have been moved to the file
-  `MCONFIG'.
-- Quite a few `low level' changes to allow formatting of cartridges.
-- formatting is implemented as a separate module `ftape-format.o'. The
-  modified `mt' program contains sample code that shows how to use it.
-- The VFS interface has been moved from the `ftape.o' module to the
-  high level modules `zftape.o' resp. `sftape.o'. `ftape.o' contains
-  the hardware support only.
-- A bit of /proc support for kernels > 2.1.28
-- Moved documentation to Doc subdir. INSTALL now contains some real
-  installation notes.
-- `install' target in Makefile.
-
-zftape specific:
-----------------
-
-- zftape works for large cartridges now ( > 2^31 bytes)
-- MTIOCVOLINFO and MTIOCGETSIZE now return the size in KILOBYTES,
-  NO LONGER in bytes.
-
-- permissions for write access to a cartridge have changed:
-  * zftape now also takes the file access mode into account
-  * zftape no longer allows writing in the middle of the recorded
-    media. The tape has to be positioned at BOT or EOD for write
-    access.
-
-- MTBSF has changed. It used to position at the beginning of the
-  previous file when called with count 1. This was different from the
-  expected behavior for other Un*x tape drivers (i.e. SCSI). MTBSF
-  with count 1 should merely position at the beginning of the current
-  volume. Fixed. As a result, `tar --verify' now produces the desired
-  result: it verifies the last written volume, not the pre-last
-  written volume.
-
-- The compression map has vanished --> no need for `mt erase' any
-  more. Fast seeking in a compressed volume is still be possible, but
-  takes slightly longer. As a side effect, you may experience an
-  additional volume showing up in front of all others for old
-  cartridges. This is the tape volume that holds the compression map.
-
-- The compression support for zftape has been moved to a separate
-  module `zft-compressor'. DON'T forget to load it before trying to
-  read back compressed volumes. The stock `zftape.o' module probes for
-  the module `zft-compressor' using the kerneld message channel; you
-  have to install `zft-compressor.o' in a place where modprobe can
-  find it if you want to use this.
-
-- New experimental feature that tries to get the broken down GMT time
-  from user space via a kernel daemon message channel. You need to
-  compile and start the `kdtime' daemon contained in the contrib
-  directory to use it. Needed (?) for time stamps in the header
-  segments and the volume table.
-
-- variable block size mode via MTSETBLK 0
-
-- keep modules locked in memory after the block size has been changed
-
-sftape specific:
-----------------
-
-- end of tape handling should be fixed, i.e. multi volume archives
-  written with `afio' can be read back now.
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-3.02a, 09/01/97 =====
-
-No big news:
-- call zft_init() resp. sft_init() when compiling the entire stuff
-  into the kernel image.
-- fix bug in ftape-setup.c when NO_TRACE_AT_ALL was defined.
-- fix bug in sftape-eof.c/zftape-eof.c for old kernels (1.2.*)
-- add support for new module interface for recent kernels
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-3.02, 16/12/96 =====
-- Fixed the `FDC unlock command failed' bug in fdc-io.c. When the FIFO
-  was already locked when ftape was loaded, ftape failed to unlock it.
-- Fixed compilation of `contrib/gnumt'. It now finds `mtio.h' even if
-  ftape is NOT included into the kernel source tree.
-- fc-10.c: include <asm/io.h> for inb() and outb().
-- ftape/sftape/zftape: all global variable now have either a `ftape_',
-  a `ft_', `sft_', `zft_' or `qic_' prefix to prevent name clashes
-  with other parts of the kernel when including ftape into the kernel
-  source tree.
-- Kerneld support has changed. `ftape' now searches for a module
-  `ftape-frontend' when none of the frontend (`sftape' or `zftape') is
-  loaded. Please refer to the `Installation/Loading ftape' section of
-  the TeXinfo manual.
-- Add load resp. boot-time configuration of ftape. There are now
-  variables ft_fdc_base, ft_fdc_dma and ft_fdc_irq corresponding to
-  the former FDC_BASE etc. compile time definitions. One can also use
-  the kernel command line parameters to configure the driver if it is
-  compiled into the kernel. Also, the FC-10/FC-20 support is load-time
-  configurable now as well as the MACH-II hack (ft_probe_fc10,
-  resp. ft_mach2). Please refer to the section `Installation/Configure
-  ftape' of the TeXinfo manual.
-- I removed the MODVERSIONS option from `Makefile.module'. Let me alone
-  with ftape and MODVERSIONS unless you include the ftape sources into
-  the kernel source tree.
-- new vendors in `vendors.h':
-  * HP Colorado T3000 
-  * ComByte DoublePlay (including a bug fix for their broken
-    formatting software, thanks to whraven@njackn.com)
-  * Iomega DITTO 2GIG. NOTE: this drive cannot work with ftape because
-    the logical data layout of the cartridges used by this drive does
-    NOT conform to the QIC standards, it is a special Iomega specific
-    format. I've sent mail to Iomega but didn't receive an answer
-    yet. If you want this drive to be supported by ftape, ask Iomega
-    to give me information about it.
-- zftape:
-  * re-introduced the MTIOC_ZFTAPE_GETBLKSZ ioctl for compatibility
-    with zftape 1.06a and earlier. Please don't use it when writing
-    new software, use the MTIOCVOLINFO ioctl instead.
-  * Major overhaul of the code that updates the header segments. Never
-    change the tape label unless erasing the tape. Thus we almost
-    never need to write the header segments, unless we would modify
-    the bad sector map which isn't done yet. Updating of volume table
-    and compression map more secure now although it takes a bit
-    longer.
-  * Fixed bug when aborting a write operation with a signal: zftape
-    now finishes the current volume (i.e. writes an eof marker) at the
-    current position. It didn't before which led to somehow *strange*
-    behavior in this cases.
-  * Keep module locked in memory when using it with  the non-rewinding
-    devices and the tape is not logical at BOT. Needed for kerneld
-    support.
-- sftape:
-  * Keep module locked in memory when using it with  the non-rewinding
-    devices and the tape is not logical at BOT. Needed for kerneld
-    support.
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-3.01, 14/11/96 =====
-
-- Fixed silly bugs in ftape-3.00:
-  * MAKEDEV.ftape: major device number must be 27, not 23 
-  * sftape/sftape-read.c: sftape_read_header_segments() called 
-    itself recursively instead of calling ftape_read_header_segment()
-  * zftape/qic-vtbl.h: conversion of ftape's file marks to zftape's
-    internal volume table was broken.
-  * patches/2.x.x/linux-2.0.21.dif: my RCS (resp. CVS) system replaced
-    the `$Revison:' etc. macros in the `ftape.h' concerning part of the
-    patch :-( Fixed.
-  * info/ftape.info: Fixed misspellings (`cp' <-> `cp -r' etc.)
-  * when ftape/sftape or ftape/zftape was compiled into the kernel the
-    variable ftape_status was declared twice. Fixed.
-  * removed reference to undeclared variable kernel_version when not
-    compiling as module
-  * fixed a bug introduced by the use of bit-fields for some flags
-    (i.e. write_protected, no_cartridge, formatted)
-  * flag `header_read' is now reset correctly to zero when tape is
-    removed.
-- fixed a bug in sftape/sftape-eof.c that was already in the original
-  ftape code. MTFSF/BSF was not handled correctly when positioned
-  right before the file mark (think of tar)
-- Changed TRACE macros (following a suggestion of Marcin Dalecki) to use
-  the predefined __FUNCTION__ macro of GCC. Spares about 4k of code.
-- added new vendor id for Iomega DITTO 2GIG
-- fixed a bug already present in zftape-1.06 when aborting a write
-  with a signal: we now finish the current volume at that
-  position. Header segments remain NOT up to date until an explicit call
-  to MTREW or MTOFFL is done.  
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-3.00, 14/10/96 =====
-
-- Merged ftape with zftape. There are three modules now:
-  ftape for the hardware support, sftape for the implementation of the
-  original ftape eof mark stuff and zftape that implements zftape's way
-  of handling things (compression, volume table, tape blocks of
-  constant length)
-- Documentation in TeXinfo format in the `info' subdirectory.
-- New ioctls for zftape. See zftape/zftape.h
-- Dummy formatting ioctl for ftape. See ftape.h
-- Kernel patch files for the 2.*.* series to include ftape-3.00 in the
-  kernel source tree. These includes a kernel compatible Config.in
-  script and fairly large online information for the kernel configure
-  script.
-- Support for compiling with Linux-1.2.13. 
-- Modified GNU mt from their cpio package that can handle the new
-  ioctls.
-- ftape/sftape/zftape is kerneld save now!
-
-Notes on sftape:
-- sftape implements the eof handling code of the original ftape. If
-  you like to stick with the original ftape stuff, you have to use
-  this module, not zftape.
-- sftape is kerneld save, unlike the original ftape.
-- we keep the entire header segment now in memory, so no need to read
-  it before updating the header segments. Additional memory
-  consumption: 256 bytes. 
-
-Notes for zftape:
-- zftape has support for tapes with format code 6 now, which use a
-  slightly different volume table format compared with other floppy
-  tapes.
-- new ioctls for zftape. Have a look at zftape/zftape.h
-- The internal volume table representation has changed for zftape. Old
-  cartridges are converted automatically.
-- zftape no longer uses compression map segments, which have vanished
-  from the QIC specs, but creates volume table entry that reserves
-  enough space for the compression map. 
-- zftape is kerneld save now.
-- we keep the entire header segment now in memory, so no need to read
-  it before updating the header segments. Additional memory
-  consumption: 256 bytes. 
-
-Notes for contrib/gnumt:
-- modified mt from the GNU cpio package that supports all the new
-  ioctls of zftape.
-Notes for contrib/swapout:
-- This contains the swapout.c program that was written by Kai
-  Harrekilde-Pederson. I simply added a Makefile.
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.10, 14/10/96 =====
-
-The ftape maintainer has changed. 
-Kai Harrekilde-Petersen <khp@dolphinics.no>
-has resigned from maintaining ftape, and I,
-Claus-Justus Heine <claus@momo.math.rwth-aachen.de>,
-have taken over.
-
-- Added support for tapes with `format code 6', i.e. QIC-3020 tapes
-  with more than 2^16 segments.
-- merged changes made by Bas Laarhoven with ftape-2.09. Refer
-  to his release notes below. I've included them into this
-  file unchanged for your reference.
-- disabled call stack back trace for now. This new feature
-  introduced by the interim release 2.0.x still seems to
-  be buggy.
-- Tried to minimize differences between the ftape version
-  to be included into the kernel source tree and the standalone
-  module version.
-- Reintroduced support for Linux-1.2.13. Please refer to the
-  Install-guide. 
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.09, 16/06/96 =====
-
-There aren't any really big news in this release, mostly just that I
-(the maintainer) have changed my email address (due to a new job).  My
-new address is <khp@dolphinics.no>
-
-- The CLK_48MHZ and FDC_82078SL options has gone (all 2Mbps cards seem
-  to use a 48MHz oscillator anyway and I haven't heard of an 'SL
-  chip out there).
-- The S82078B has been `downgraded' to i82077AA compability.
-- TESTING option revived.  Right now, it'll enable the (seriously broken)
-  2Mbps code.  If you enable it, you'll experience a tape drive that's
-  *really* out to lunch!
-- Some (bold) changes in the init code.  Please notify me if they
-  break things for you.
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.08, 14/03/96 =====
-
-If you correct a problem with ftape, please send your patch to
-khp@dolphinics.no too.
-
-- Updated to reflect that NR_MEM_LISTS is gone in 1.3.74
-- Teac 700 added to list of known drives.
-- The registered device name is now "ft" rather than "ftape".
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.07a, 14/03/96 =====
-
-Bugfixes by Marcin Dalecki <dalecki@namu03.gwdg.de>:
-- In the last release it just compiled against 1.3.70;
-  now the params to request_irq() and free_irq are() are fixed, so it also 
-  works in 1.3.73 :-)
-- Support for modules is now correct for newer kernels.
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.07, 04/03/96 =====
-
-
-- ftape updated to compile against 1.3.70.
-- Iomega 700 and Wangtek 3200 recognised.
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.06b, 13/02/96 =====
-
-Another simple bugfix version.
-
-- Jumbo 700 recognised.
-- Typo in vendors.h fixed.
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.06a, 10/02/96 =====
-
-This release is a simple bugfix version.
-
-- Linux/SMP: ftape *should* work.
-- FC-10/20: Only accepts IRQs 3-7, or 9.  If IRQ 9, properly tell the card
-  to use IRQ 2.  Thanks to Greg Crider (gcrider@iclnet.org) for finding and
-  locating this bug and testing the patch.
-- Insight drive recognised correctly again.
-- Motor-on wakeup version of the Iomega 250 drive added
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.06, 28/01/96 =====
-
-Special thanks go to Neal Friedman and Steven Sorbom for their
-help in producing and testing this release.
-
-I have continued to clean up the code, with an eye towards inclusion
-of ftape in Linus' official kernel (In fact, as I type this, I am
-running on a kernel with ftape support statically linked).  I have
-test-compiled ftape against my 1.2.13 tree without problems.
-Hopefully, everything should be OK for the v1.2.x people.
-
-WARNING! Alan Cox has mailed me that ftape does *NOT* work with
-Linux/SMP.  If you try to run ftape under Linux/SMP, it will cause a
-kernel deadlock (which is worse than a panic).
-
-- QIC-3020/TR-3: 1Mbps support works.  Neal is capable of reading and
-  writing data to a tape.  ftape will automatically detect the type of
-  tape (e.g. TR-3 vs QIC-80) and move the fdc in and out of
-  "perpendicular mode" as necessary.
-- 2Mbps support is disabled by default, since it is not fully
-  debugged.  If you are adventurous, remove -DFDC_82078SL in the
-  Makefile and see what happens :-)
-- fdc detection: silly bugs removed (Only 2Mbps fdcs were affected)
-  and added detection of the National Semiconductors PC8744 fdc chip
-  (used in the PC873xx "super-IO" chips).
-- Removed warning about incompatible types when compiling with Linux
-  1.2.x.
-- README.PCI updated with info about the DELL Dimension XPS P90.
-- Connor TST3200R added to detected drives.
-- `swapout' utility added to distribution.  It will dirty 5Meg of
-  memory, trying to swap out other programs.  Just say `make swapout'
-  to build it.  ftape will do this automatically Real Soon Now (ie:
-  when I have found out which kernel memory alloc function to call).
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.05, 08/01/96 =====
-
-- For v1.2.x Kernels, you must apply the patch linux-1.2/ksyms.patch to
-  the kernel and rebuild it (it adds the __get_dma_pages symbol to
-  ksyms.c).
-- Included new asm-i386/io.h file from v1.3.x kernel series, to enable
-  gcc v.2.7.[12] to compile v1.2.x kernels (linux-1.2/io.h).
-- Module versions: If you wish to compile ftape as a versioned module,
-  you must first compile your kernel with CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y.
-  Otherwise, you will get complaints that <linux/modversions.h> does not
-  exist (if that happens, a `touch modversions.h' will help you out).
-- CLK_48MHZ: new define in the Makefile (default: non-zero).  If you have
-  a tape controller card that uses the i82078(-1) chip, but cannot get
-  it to work with ftape, try set it to 0 (and please report this).
-- QIC-3010/3020: Complete support is still missing, but will hopefully
-  come soon.  Steven Sorbom has kindly provided me with hints about
-  this.  Writing of QIC-3020 tapes definitely does NOT work (do not try
-  it! - the drive will not be in "perpendicular mode" and this will ruin
-  the formatting info on the tape).
-- ftape_num_buffers is out of fashion: use NR_BUFFERS instead (and
-  recompile if you want to change it :-).
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.04, 01/01/96 =====
-
-This version by Kai Harrekilde-Petersen <khp@dolphinics.no>
-
-- ALERT! Support for Kernels earlier then v1.1.85 is about to go away.
-  I intend to clean up some of the code (getting rid of an annoyingly
-  large numbers of #ifdef mostly), which means that support for
-  pre-1.1.85 kernels must go as well.
-- NR_FTAPE_BUFFERS is gone; You can instead select the number of dma
-  buffers by saying `insmod ftape.o ftape_num_buffer=<n>' instead.
-- Configure script gone.  ftape will now automagically determine your
-  kernel version by /usr/include/linux/version.h instead.
-- CONFIG_MODVERSIONS now work.  All combinations of versioned /
-  unversioned kernel and ftape module works (at least with my 1.3.52
-  kernel).
-- If you have problems with inserting ftape into an old (1.2.x)
-  kernel (e.g. insmod says "1.2.8 does not match 1.2.8), recompile
-  your modules utilities with your new compiler.
-- Reveal TB1400 drive added to vendors.h
-- Support for the i82078-1 (2Mbps) chip is coming along.  The
-  biggest problem is that I don't have such a card, which makes
-  testing / debugging somewhat problematic.  The second biggest
-  problem is that I do not have the QIC-3010/3020 standards either.
-  Status right now is that the chip is detected, and it should be
-  possible to put it into 2Mbps mode.  However, I do not know what
-  "extras" are needed to complete the support.  Although putting the
-  i82078 into 1Mbps mode ought to work out of the box, it doesn't
-  (right now, ftape complains about id am errors).
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.04beta5, 29/12/95 =====
-
-Bas offline linux-tape
-----------------------
-For reasons only known to the majordomo mail list processor, Bas was
-kicked off the linux-tape list sometime during the summer.  Being
-overworked at his for-pay job, he didn't notice it much.  Instead I
-(Kai, khp@dolphinics.no) has worked on ftape to produce the 2.04(beta)
-version.
-
-zftape
-------
-Note that there exists a much improved version of ftape, written by
-Claus-Justus Heine <claus@willi.math.rwth-aachen.de> which is named
-zftape, which conforms to the QIC-80 specs on how to mark backups, and
-is capable of doing automatic compression.  However, zftape makes
-substantial changes to ftape, and I (Kai) have therefore declined to
-integrate zftape into ftape.  Hopefully, this will happen soon.
-
-CONFIG_QIC117 removed from the kernel
--------------------------------------
-The biggest change of all is that ftape now will allocate its dma
-buffers when it is inserted.  The means that the CONFIG_QIC117 option
-has disappeared from the Linux kernel as of v1.3.34.  If you have an
-earlier kernel, simply answer 'no' to the question will do the trick
-(if you get complains about __get_free_pages() missing, contact the
-linux-tape mailing list).
-
-Note that ftape-2.04beta will work equally well on kernels with and
-without `ftape support'.  The only catch is, that you will waste
-around 96-128Kb of precious DMA'able memory on a box that has ftape
-support compiled in.
-
-Now for the real changes:
-
-- FC-20 can now use DMA channels 1, 2, and 3. Thanks to Daniel
-  Cohen, catman@wpi.edu.
-- ftape no longer requires a (gigantic) 96Kb buffer to be statically
-  allocated by the kernel.
-- Added new Iomega drive (8882) to vendors.h
-- -fno-strength-reduce added to Makefile, since GCC is broken.
-- i82078-1 (2Mbps) FDC support started.
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.03b, 27/05/95 =====
-
-- Prevented verify_area to return error if called with zero length.
-- Fixed a bug in flush_buffers that caused too much padding to be
-  written when a final segment had bad sectors.
-- Increased maximum fast-seek overshoot value from 5 to 10 segments.
-- Breaking loop after 5 retries when positioning fails.
-- Fixed wrong calculation of tape length for QIC-3010 and QIC-3020
-  tapes (densities were swapped).
-- Fixed wrong calculation of overshoot on seek_forward: Wrong sign
-  of error.
-- Suppress (false) error message due to new tape loaded.
-- Added two new CMS drives (11c3 and 11c5) to vendors.h.
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.03a, 09/05/95 =====
-
-- Fixed display of old error (even if already cleared) in ftape_open.
-- Improved tape length detection, ioctls would fail for 425 ft tapes.
-  Until the tape length is calculated with data from the header
-  segment, we'll use worst-case values.
-- Clear eof_mark after rewinding ioctls.
-- Fixed wrong version message (2.03 had 2.02g id).
-- Fixed bug that caused the fdc to be reset very frequently.
-  This shouldn't affect normal operation but the timing of the
-  report routines has changed again and that may cause problems.
-  We'll just have to find out....
-- Implemented correct write precompensation setting for QIC-3010/3020.
-- Cleaned up fdc_interrupt_wait routine. Hope it still works :-)
-- Finally removed (already disabled) special eof mark handling for
-  gnu tar.
-- Changed order of get_dma_residue and disable_dma in fdc-isr.c
-  because the current order would fail on at least one system.
-  We're back to the original order again, hope (and expect) this
-  doesn't break any other system.
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.03, 07/05/95 =====
-
-(Changes refer to the first ftape-2.02 release)
-
-Support for wide and extended length tapes
-------------------------------------------
-The Conner TSM 420 and 850 drives are reported to be working.
-I haven't received any reports about other brands; the TSM 420
-and 850 seem to be the most widely used wide drives.
-Extended length tapes (425 ft) with normal QIC-80 drives
-are operating too (At least I've had no reports stating otherwise).
-_Not_ yet completely supported (although they may work) are
-QIC-3020 drives and 2 Mbps floppy disk controllers won't work at
-the highest speed.
-If someone is kind enough to send me one of these, I'll include
-support for it too ;-)
-
-Easier configuration
---------------------
-Problems due to wrong settings in the Makefile are prevented
-by using a configuration script that sets the necessary (kernel
-version dependent) compile time options.
-This kernel version is now determined from the sources found
-at /usr/src/linux, or if not found, the old way using
-/proc/version.
-Versioned modules will be used automatically when supported
-by- and configured in- the kernel.
-Note that the current modules code (1.1.87) is still broken
-and _needs_ the fix included in the insmod directory.
-Please don't send me any more Oops reports caused by insmod :-(
-
-Reduced module size
--------------------
-The standard module size is much reduced and some compile time
-options can even reduce it further. (I don't recommend this
-for normal use but it can be handy for rescue diskettes)
-
-Option:           Approx. module size:
-
-<standard>             150 Kb
-NO_TRACE               125 Kb
-NO_TRACE_AT_ALL         67 Kb
-
-
-Much improved driver interruption
----------------------------------
-Most possible loops have been broken and signal detection
-has been improved.
-In most cases the driver can be aborted by ^C (SIGINT) and
-SIGKILL (kill -9) will generate be a sure kill.
-(Note that aborting a tape operation may damage the last
-data written to tape)
-
-Improved error recovery
------------------------
-Ftape now returns an error (ENODATA) to the application if
-a segment proves to be unrecoverable and then skips the
-bad segment.
-This causes most applications to continue to work (tar
-and afio) loosing only a small amount (up to 29 Kb) of data.
-Retried read operations will now be done slightly off-track
-to improve the chance of success. Serious head off-track
-errors will be detected.
-
-FC-10 and FC-20 controllers
----------------------------
-Ftape now supports both the old CMS FC-10 and the newer FC-20
-controllers.
-Because the operation of these cards is still undocumented,
-thus far they will only work with the default settings (See
-Makefile). Any feed-back on how to use them with other settings
-will be welcome !
-Compilation will fail if one changes the settings to illegal
-values.
-
-Kernels and compilers
----------------------
-Ftape is currently being developed using the 2.5.8 compiler.
-The older 2.4.5 probably works too (Set option in Makefile!).
-I have no experience with any later compilers nor Elf support.
-Any information on this is welcome.
-The latest kernel I have tested ftape with is 1.2.6.
-
-Compression
------------
-An impressive collection of changes for ftape including
-on-the-fly compression is still lying on my desk.
-If 2.03 proves to be reliable I might start integrating these
-but as usual, I'm short in time :-(
-
-Formatting
-----------
-There is still no way to format tapes under Linux. As far as
-I know all attempts to write such a program have died now.
-Since formatted tapes are rather common now, I think all we
-need is a utility that writes a worst case pattern and verifies
-that with the drive put in verify mode, reducing margins.
-Any takers ?
-
-Furthermore
------------
-Cleaned up messages.
-Prepared to support multiple tape drives on one fdc.
-Thanks to all the people who sent bug reports and helped me
-improve the driver. Without trying to be complete I'll mention
-Gary Anderson (without his accurate reports and unreliable
-hardware there wouldn't be a 2.03), Stefan Kneifel (FC-20),
-Robert Broughton (FC-20, you were almost there ;-), Bjorn
-Ekwall (for the versioned modules and buggy insmod ;-), Peter
-Fox, Christopher Oliver, Ralph Whittaker and not the least
-Linus Torvalds (for Linux and keeping me busy because of
-changes to the kernel ;-)
-Thanks to anyone I forgot, for the bug reports, the ftape
-bashing and the mental support...
-
-
-That's it for now. Have Fun,
-
-Bas.

-===== Release notes for ftape-2.02g, 06/05/95 =====
-
-- Added extra test to break read-id loop with signal.
-- Changed rewind code to handle negative overshoot for drives
-  that take very long to start or stop.
-- Let use of get/set i/o-regions depend on kernel version.
-- Changed code to use a more general test for conditional
-  compilations depending on kernel version.
-- Improved micro-step functionality to go off-track only
-  while reading (id & data).
-- Added failure on tape-not-referenced bit in ftape_command.
-- Added FOREVER option to read-wait routine.
-- Changed read-id to use shorter timeout causing smaller
-  rewinds on timeout.
-- Made kernel-interface functions static.
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.02f, 03/05/95 =====
-
-- Added support for dual tape drives on my system, extended Configure
-  script to detect host 'dodo'.
-- Log media defect in history if ecc failed and no data was returned.
-- Fixed Configure script that was failing for kernel versions with
-  double digit version or revision numbers.
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.02e, 01/05/95 =====
-
-- Fixed reposition loop at logical eot (failing read_id).
-- Fixed 34 segment offset when rewinding.
-- Added fast seek capability for more than 255 segments.
-- Fixed wrong busy result from ftape_command causing reverse
-  seek to fail.
-- Added breakout from infinite rewind loop (if something fails).
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.02d, 30/04/95 =====
-
-- Improved abortion on signals: Interrupt will make a graceful
-  exit, Kill will be less nice and should be used if everything
-  else fails.
-- Included check for tape-head off track.
-- Implemented exit from tape-start loop.
-- Added kernel io-port registration.
-- Implemented skip of failing segment (ENODATA) on ecc failure.
-  This allows afio and tar to continue when the tape is damaged.
-- Made distinction between drive names with different codes.
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.02c, 22/04/95 =====
-
-- Fixed too tight command queueing after tape stop/pause command
-  issued from within interrupt service routine (Showed as timeout
-  on Acknowledge errors during retries on some systems)
-- Tried to fix timeouts when using 425 ft tape because the extended
-  length doesn't seem to be detected by the hardware.
-  We now use the format code from the header segment so adjust the
-  timing after reading the header segment.
-- Fixed some messages stating 'unexpected something...' being not
-  unexpected anymore.
-- Started preparations for merge of dynamic buffer allocation and
-  compression code.
-- Changed some debug messages to include relevant segment information
-  at level 4.
-- Included early bail-out when drive offline, preventing a lot of
-  false messages.
-- Moved ftape_parameter_xxx() offsets into function instead of in calls.
-- Removed 'weird, drive busy but no data' error when caused by
-  an error during a read-id.
-- Improved 'timeout on acknowledge' diagnostics.
-- Moved MODULE option into Configure.
-- Reduced code size when no tracing at all was set (Claus Heine).
-- No longer log error code 0 (no error) as an error.
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.02b, 09/04/95 =====
-
-- Relaxed timing for status operation and displaying
-  abnormal results. Hopefully this shows what's going
-  wrong with the Conner TSM850R drives.
-- Created script for configuration, using version number
-  of kernel source if available, otherwise /proc/version.
-- Fixed conditionals in kernel-interface.c.
-- Removed unavoidable TRACE output.
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.02a, 01/04/95 =====
-
-- Implemented `new-style' (versioned) modules support for new
-  kernels.
-- Reduced size of module by moving static data to bss.
-- Now using version number of kernel source instead of running
-  kernel for kernel versions >= 1.1.82
-- Added feedback on drive speeds to vendor information.
-- Included fixed insmod sources to distribution (Let's hope
-  the modules distribution get fixed soon :-/).
-
-Note that I haven't yet implemented any of the code extension I
-received. I hope to find some time to do this soon.
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.02, 15/01/95 =====
-
-
-- Fixed failing repositioning when overshoot was incremented.
-- Fixed rate selection: Because of a deficiency in the QIC-117
-  specification one cannot distinguish between a not implemented
-  and a failing command. Therefor we now try to find out if the
-  drive does support this command before usage.
-- Fixed error retry using wrong offset in fdc-isr.
-- Improved retry code to retry only once on a single no-data
-  error in a segment.
-- Validate sector number extracted from eof mark because an
-  invalid file mark (due to ???) could cause kernel panic.
-- Split ftape-io.c into ftape-io.c and ftape-ctl.c files.
-- Corrected too high media error count after writing to
-  a bad tape.
-- Added #include <asm/segment.h> again because old kernel versions
-  need it.
-- Fixed fdc not being disabled when open failed because no tape
-  drive was found.
-- Fixed problem with soft error in sector 32 (shift operator with
-  shiftcount 32 is not defined).
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.01, 08/01/95 =====
-
-
-- Removed TESTING setting from distributed Makefile.
-- Fixed `mt asf' failure: Rewind was deferred to close which
-  overruled the fsf ioctl.
-- Prevented non-interruptible commands being interrupted.
-- Added missing timeout.pause setting.
-- Maximum tape speed read from drive type information table.
-  If the information is not in the table (0) the drive will
-  determine the speed itself and put a message in the logfile.
-  This information should then be added to the table in the
-  vendors.h file (and reported to me).
-- Added call to ftape_init_drive after soft reset for those
-  (antique) drives that don't do an implicit seek_load_point
-  after a reset or power up.
-- Don't try to set data rate if reset failed.
-- Prevent update of seek variables when starting from the
-  beginning or the end of the tape.
-- Fixed wrong adjustment of overshoot in seek_forward().
-- Added sync to Makefile (again).
-- Added code to diagnose timer problems (calibr.c).
-- Replaced time differences by timediff calls.
-- Removed reference to do_floppy from object for recent kernels.
-- Fixed wrong display of 'failing dma controller' message.
-- Removed various no longer used #include statements.
-- Added max. tape speed value to vendor-struct.
-- Changed ftape-command to check pre-conditions and wait
-  if needed.
-- Further updated qic117.h to rev G.
-- Combined command name table and restrictions table to one.
-  Extended this table with some new fields.
-- Increased timeout on Ack timer value and included code to
-  report out of spec behaviour.
-- Increased rewind timeout margin to calculated + 20%.
-- Improved data rate selection so it won't fail on some
-  older (pre standard) drives.
-- Changed initialisation code so drive will be rewound if the
-  driver is reloaded and the tape is not at bot.
-- Moved some of the flush operations from close to the ioctls.
-- Added exit code value to failing verify area message.
-- Loop until tape halted in smart-stop.
-- Fast seek handled specially if located at bot or eot.
-- Being more conservative on overshoot value.
-
-
-===== Release notes for ftape-2.00, 31/12/94 =====
-
-  The Install-guide is completely rewritten and now also includes
-some information on how to use the driver. If you're either new
-to ftape or new to Unix tape devices make sure to read it !
-
-  If you own a pci system and experience problems with the
-ftape driver make sure to read the README.PCI file. It contains
-some hints on how to fix your hardware.
-
-  For anybody who hasn't noticed: The version number of the
-driver has been incremented (The latest released version has
-been version 1.14d).
-  This has been done for two major reasons:
-
-  o  A new (better) error recovery scheme is implemented.
-  o  Support for new drive types has been added.
-
-  All these improvements/changes will probably include a couple
-of new (and old?) bugs. If you encounter any problems that you think
-I'm not yet aware of, feel free to send a report to <bas@vimec.nl>.
-  I recommend keeping a version of ftape-1.14d available, just
-in case ;-)
-
-  This version should work with all kernel versions from 1.0.9 up
-to 1.1.72 (and probably earlier and later versions too).
-
-
-Major new features:
-
-- Better handling of tapes with defects: When a sector repeatedly
-  (SOFT_RETRIES in ftape.h) cannot be written to or read from it is
-  marked as an hard error and gets skipped.
-  The error correction code can handle up to three of these hard
-  errors provided there are no other errors in that segment (32 Kb).
-  
-- Allows writing to tapes with defects (although the risk of loosing
-  data increases !)
-  Look for the media-defects entry printed with the statistics when
-  the tape is closed. A non-zero value here shows a bad tape.
-  [the actual count is wrong (too high), this is a known bug].
-
-- Use of backup header segment if first one is failing.
-
-- Support for extended length tapes with QIC-80: both 425 and 1100 ft.
-  0.25 inch tapes are now recognized and handled.
-
-- Support for new QIC-80 drives with 8 mm `wide' tapes (e.g. Conner
-  TSM 420).
-
-- Support for new QIC-3010 and QIC-3020 drives (experimental) with
-  both 0.25 inch and 8 mm tapes.
-
-Some minor features were added, a couple of small bugs were fixed and
-probably some new ones introduced ;-).
-
-[lseek() didn't make it into this version]
-
-Have fun,
-
-Bas.

-/* The LZRW3 algorithm is identical to the LZRW1-A algorithm except that      */
-/* instead of transmitting history offsets, it transmits hash table indexes.  */
-/* In order to decode the indexes, the decompressor must maintain an          */
-/* identical hash table. Copy items are straightforward:when the decompressor */
-/* receives a copy item, it simply looks up the hash table to translate the   */
-/* index into a pointer into the data already decompressed. To update the     */
-/* hash table, it replaces the same table entry with a pointer to the start   */
-/* of the newly decoded phrase. The tricky part is with literal items, for at */
-/* the time that the decompressor receives a literal item the decompressor    */
-/* does not have the three bytes in the Ziv (that the compressor has) to      */
-/* perform the three-byte hash. To solve this problem, in LZRW3, both the     */
-/* compressor and decompressor are wired up so that they "buffer" these       */
-/* literals and update their hash tables only when three bytes are available. */
-/* This makes the maximum buffering 2 bytes.                                  */

-/* Replacement of offsets by hash table indexes yields a few percent extra    */
-/* compression at the cost of some speed. LZRW3 is slower than LZRW1, LZRW1-A */
-/* and LZRW2, but yields better compression.                                  */

-/* compression speed which was not considered worthwhile. Another reason for  */
-/* keeping the depth down to one was to allow easy comparison with the        */

- *
- * NOTE: The size of the compressed data should not exceed the size of
- *       the uncompressed data. Most compression algorithms have means
- *       to store data unchanged if the "compressed" data amount would
- *       exceed the original one. Mostly this is done by storing some
- *       flag-bytes in front of the compressed data to indicate if it
- *       is compressed or not. Thus the worst compression result
- *       length is the original length plus those flag-bytes.
- *
- *       We don't want that, as the QIC-80 standard provides a means
- *       of marking uncompressed blocks by simply setting bit 15 of
- *       the compressed block's length. Thus a compessed block can
- *       have at most a length of 2^15-1 bytes. The QIC-80 standard
- *       restricts the block-length even further, allowing only 29k -
- *       6 bytes.
- *
- *       Currently, the maximum blocksize used by zftape is 28k.
- *
- *       In short: don't exceed the length of the input-package, set
- *       bit 15 of the compressed size to 1 if you have copied data
- *       instead of compressing it.

-   The entire guts of this program was written by dosemu, modified to
-   record reads and writes to the ports in the 0x180-0x188 address space,
-   while running the CMS program TAPE.EXE V2.0.5 supplied with the drive.
-
-   Modified to use an array of addresses and generally cleaned up (made
-   much shorter) 4 June 94, dosemu isn't that good at writing short code it
-   would seem :-). Made independent of 0x180, but I doubt it will work
-   at any other address.
-
-   Modified for distribution with ftape source. 21 June 94, SJL.
-
-   Modifications on 20 October 95, by Daniel Cohen (catman@wpi.edu):
-   Modified to support different DMA, IRQ, and IO Ports.  Borland's
-   Turbo Debugger in virtual 8086 mode (TD386.EXE with hardware breakpoints
-   provided by the TDH386.SYS Device Driver) was used on the CMS program
-   TAPE V4.0.5.  I set breakpoints on I/O to ports 0x180-0x187.  Note that
-   CMS's program will not successfully configure the tape drive if you set
-   breakpoints on IO Reads, but you can set them on IO Writes without problems.
-   Known problems:
-   - You can not use DMA Channels 5 or 7.
-
-   Modification on 29 January 96, by Daniel Cohen (catman@wpi.edu):
-   Modified to only accept IRQs 3 - 7, or 9.  Since we can only send a 3 bit
-   number representing the IRQ to the card, special handling is required when
-   IRQ 9 is selected.  IRQ 2 and 9 are the same, and we should request IRQ 9
-   from the kernel while telling the card to use IRQ 2.  Thanks to Greg
-   Crider (gcrider@iclnet.org) for finding and locating this bug, as well as
-   testing the patch.
-
-   Modification on 11 December 96, by Claus Heine (claus@momo.math.rwth-aachen.de):
-   Modified a little to use variahle ft_fdc_base, ft_fdc_irq, ft_fdc_dma 
-   instead of preprocessor symbols. Thus we can compile this into the module
-   or kernel and let the user specify the options as command line arguments.

-                 * itself a command to the floppy tape driver (pause,

-                 * commands are transmitted via the fdc_seek
-                 * command. But: the fdc performs seeks in the
-                 * background i.e. it doesn't signal busy while
-                 * sending the step pulses to the drive. Therefore the
-                 * non-interrupt level driver has no chance to tell
-                 * whether the isr() just has issued a seek. Therefore
-                 * we HAVE TO have a look at the ft_hide_interrupt
-                 * flag: it signals the non-interrupt level part of
-                 * the driver that it has to wait for the fdc until it
-                 * has completet seeking.
-                 *
-                 * THIS WAS PRESUMABLY THE REASON FOR ALL THAT

- *         Galois Field GF(2^8).  We reserve x for polynomials that
- *         that have coefficients in GF(2^8).
- *         
- * The Galois Field in which coefficient arithmetic is performed are
- * the polynomials over Z_2 (i.e., 0 and 1) modulo the irreducible
- * polynomial f(r), where f(r)=r^8 + r^7 + r^2 + r + 1.  A polynomial
- * is represented as a byte with the MSB as the coefficient of r^7 and
- * the LSB as the coefficient of r^0.  For example, the binary
- * representation of f(x) is 0x187 (of course, this doesn't fit into 8
- * bits).  In this field, the polynomial r is a primitive element.
- * That is, r^i with i in 0,...,255 enumerates all elements in the
- * field.
- *
- * The generator polynomial for the QIC-80 ECC is
- *
- *      g(x) = x^3 + r^105*x^2 + r^105*x + 1
- *
- * which can be factored into:
- *
- *      g(x) = (x-r^-1)(x-r^0)(x-r^1)
- *
- * the byte representation of the coefficients are:
- *
- *      r^105 = 0xc0
- *      r^-1  = 0xc3
- *      r^0   = 0x01
- *      r^1   = 0x02
- *
- * Notice that r^-1 = r^254 as exponent arithmetic is performed
- * modulo 2^8-1 = 255.
- *
- * For more information on Galois Fields and Reed-Solomon codes, refer
- * to any good book.  I found _An Introduction to Error Correcting
- * Codes with Applications_ by S. A. Vanstone and P. C. van Oorschot
- * to be a good introduction into the former.  _CODING THEORY: The
- * Essentials_ I found very useful for its concise description of
- * Reed-Solomon encoding/decoding.

- *
- * S[i] is the value of the "message" polynomial m(x) evaluated at the

- *
- * As g(x)=(x-r^-1)(x-1)(x-r^1) we evaluate the message polynomial at

- * r^-1 (0xc3) and r (0x02).  The following scheme does not require

- * anyway and is slightly faster if there are no errors and slightly
- * slower if there are errors.  The latter is hopefully the infrequent

- * only if s is zero.  That is, if all parity bytes are 0, we know
- * there is no error in the data and consequently there is no need to
- * compute s(x) at all!  In all other cases, we compute s(x) from p(x)
- * by evaluating (r^m)^k*p(r^m) for m=-1, m=0, and m=1.  The p(x)

- *
- * The bad sector log normally contains entries of the form:

- * odd 16-bit word: encoded date
- * There can be a total of 448 entries (1792 bytes).

- * format seems useless as there is no indication of the bad sector

- * sector log, the format used by ftape will let the program think
- * there are some bad sectors and no harm is done.
- *  
- * The eof mark entries that ftape stores in the bad sector log: even
- * 16-bit word: segment number of eof mark odd 16-bit word: sector
- * number of eof mark [1..32]
- *  
- * The zft_eof_map as maintained is a sorted list of eof mark entries.
- *
- *
- * The tape name field in the header segments is used to store a linux
- * tape identification string and a version number.  This way the tape
- * can be recognized as a Linux raw format tape when using tools under
- * other OS's.
- *
- * 'Wide' QIC tapes (format code 4) don't have a failed sector list
- * anymore. That space is used for the (longer) bad sector map that
- * now is a variable length list too.  We now store our end-of-file
- * marker list after the bad-sector-map on tape. The list is delimited
- * by a (__u32) 0 entry.
