313 | What: ide-scsi (BLK_DEV_IDESCSI) | ||
314 | When: 2.6.29 | ||
315 | Why: The 2.6 kernel supports direct writing to ide CD drives, which | ||
316 | eliminates the need for ide-scsi. The new method is more | ||

329 | What: SELinux "compat_net" functionality | ||
330 | When: 2.6.30 at the earliest | ||
331 | Why: In 2.6.18 the Secmark concept was introduced to replace the "compat_net" | ||
332 | network access control functionality of SELinux. Secmark offers both | ||
333 | better performance and greater flexibility than the "compat_net" | ||
334 | mechanism. Now that the major Linux distributions have moved to | ||
335 | Secmark, it is time to deprecate the older mechanism and start the | ||
336 | process of removing the old code. | ||
