+What:           /sys/class/gpio/
+Date:           July 2008
+KernelVersion:  2.6.27
+Contact:        David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>
+Description:
+
+  As a Kconfig option, individual GPIO signals may be accessed from
+  userspace.  GPIOs are only made available to userspace by an explicit
+  "export" operation.  If a given GPIO is not claimed for use by
+  kernel code, it may be exported by userspace (and unexported later).
+  Kernel code may export it for complete or partial access.
+
+  GPIOs are identified as they are inside the kernel, using integers in
+  the range 0..INT_MAX.  See Documentation/gpio.txt for more information.
+
+    /sys/class/gpio
+        /export ... asks the kernel to export a GPIO to userspace
+        /unexport ... to return a GPIO to the kernel
+        /gpioN ... for each exported GPIO #N
+            /value ... always readable, writes fail for input GPIOs
+            /direction ... r/w as: in, out (default low); write: high, low
+        /gpiochipN ... for each gpiochip; #N is its first GPIO
+            /base ... (r/o) same as N
+            /label ... (r/o) descriptive, not necessarily unique
+            /ngpio ... (r/o) number of GPIOs; numbered N to N + (ngpio - 1)

 There is an exception to the above.  If hotplug functionality is used
 to remove all the CPUs that are currently assigned to a cpuset,
-then the kernel will automatically update the cpus_allowed of all
-tasks attached to CPUs in that cpuset to allow all CPUs.  When memory
-hotplug functionality for removing Memory Nodes is available, a

-the kernel prefers to violate cpuset placement, over starving a task
-that has had all its allowed CPUs or Memory Nodes taken offline.  User

-Nodes when using hotplug to add or remove such resources.
+then all the tasks in that cpuset will be moved to the nearest ancestor
+with non-empty cpus.  But the moving of some (or all) tasks might fail if
+cpuset is bound with another cgroup subsystem which has some restrictions
+on task attaching.  In this failing case, those tasks will stay
+in the original cpuset, and the kernel will automatically update
+their cpus_allowed to allow all online CPUs.  When memory hotplug
+functionality for removing Memory Nodes is available, a similar exception

 There is a second exception to the above.  GFP_ATOMIC requests are
 kernel internal allocations that must be satisfied, immediately.

+What: ide-scsi (BLK_DEV_IDESCSI)
+When: 2.6.29
+Why:  The 2.6 kernel supports direct writing to ide CD drives, which
