1Release Date : Mon Mar 07 12:27:22 EST 2005 - Seokmann Ju <sju@lsil.com>
2Current Version : 2.20.4.6 (scsi module), 2.20.2.6 (cmm module)
3Older Version : 2.20.4.5 (scsi module), 2.20.2.5 (cmm module)

51. Added IOCTL backward compatibility.
6 Convert megaraid_mm driver to new compat_ioctl entry points.
7 I don't have easy access to hardware, so only compile tested.

102. megaraid_mbox fix: wrong order of arguments in memset()
11 That, BTW, shows why cross-builds are useful-the only indication of
12 problem had been a new warning showing up in sparse output on alpha
13 build (number of exceeding 256 got truncated).

173. Convert pci_module_init to pci_register_driver
18 Convert from pci_module_init to pci_register_driver

224. Use the pre defined DMA mask constants from dma-mapping.h
23 Use the DMA_{64,32}BIT_MASK constants from dma-mapping.h when calling
24 pci_set_dma_mask() or pci_set_consistend_dma_mask(). See
25 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=108001993000001&r=1&w=2 for more
26 details.

305. Remove SSID checking for Dobson, Lindsay, and Verde based products.
31 Checking the SSVID/SSID for controllers which have Dobson, Lindsay,
32 and Verde is unnecessary because device ID has been assigned by LSI
33 and it is unique value. So, all controllers with these IOPs have to be
34 supported by the driver regardless SSVID/SSID.

38 Subject RFC: assert_spin_locked() for 2.6
39
40 Greetings!
41
42 overcautious programming will kill your kernel ;)
43 ever thought about checking a spin_lock or even
44 asserting that it must be held (maybe just for
45 spinlock debugging?) ...
46
47 there are several checks present in the kernel
48 where somebody does a variation on the following:
49
50 BUG_ON(!spin_is_locked(&some_lock));
51
52 so what's wrong about that? nothing, unless you
53 compile the code with CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK but
54 without CONFIG_SMP ... in which case the BUG()
55 will kill your kernel ...
56
57 maybe it's not advised to make such assertions,
58 but here is a solution which works for me ...
59 (compile tested for sh, x86_64 and x86, boot/run
60 tested for x86 only)
61
62 best,
63 Herbert
