Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

7 ---help---
8 LSI Logic Fusion(TM) Message Passing Technology (MPT) device support
9 provides high performance SCSI host initiator, and LAN [1] interface
10 services to a host system. The Fusion architecture is capable of
11 duplexing these protocols on high-speed Fibre Channel
12 (up to 2 GHz x 2 ports = 4 GHz) and parallel SCSI (up to Ultra-320)
13 physical medium.

18 int "Maximum number of scatter gather entries"
19 depends on FUSION
20 default "40"
21 help
22 This option allows you to specify the maximum number of scatter-
23 gather entries per I/O. The driver defaults to 40, a reasonable number
24 for most systems. However, the user may increase this up to 128.
25 Increasing this parameter will require significantly more memory
26 on a per controller instance. Increasing the parameter is not
27 necessary (or recommended) unless the user will be running
28 large I/O's via the raw interface.

31 tristate "Fusion MPT misc device (ioctl) driver"
32 depends on FUSION
33 ---help---
34 The Fusion MPT misc device driver provides specialized control
35 of MPT adapters via system ioctl calls. Use of ioctl calls to
36 the MPT driver requires that you create and use a misc device
37 node ala:
38 mknod /dev/mptctl c 10 240
39
40 One use of this ioctl interface is to perform an upgrade (reflash)
41 of the MPT adapter firmware. Refer to readme file(s) distributed
42 with the Fusion MPT linux driver for additional details.
43
44 If enabled by saying M to this, a driver named: mptctl
45 will be compiled.
46
47 If unsure whether you really want or need this, say N.

50 tristate "Fusion MPT LAN driver"
51 depends on FUSION && NET_FC
52 ---help---
53 This module supports LAN IP traffic over Fibre Channel port(s)
54 on Fusion MPT compatible hardware (LSIFC9xx chips).
55 The physical interface used is defined in RFC 2625.
56 Please refer to that document for details.
57
58 Installing this driver requires the knowledge to configure and
59 activate a new network interface, "fc0", using standard Linux tools.
60
61 If enabled by saying M to this, a driver named: mptlan
62 will be compiled.
63
64 If unsure whether you really want or need this, say N.
