2* pcmcia_loop_config() and autoconfiguration (as of 2.6.36)
3 If struct pcmcia_device *p_dev->config_flags is set accordingly,
4 pcmcia_loop_config() now sets up certain configuration values
5 automatically, though the driver may still override the settings
6 in the callback function. The following autoconfiguration options
7 are provided at the moment:
8 CONF_AUTO_CHECK_VCC : check for matching Vcc
9 CONF_AUTO_SET_VPP : set Vpp
10 CONF_AUTO_AUDIO : auto-enable audio line, if required
11 CONF_AUTO_SET_IO : set ioport resources (->resource[0,1])
12 CONF_AUTO_SET_IOMEM : set first iomem resource (->resource[2])
13
14* pcmcia_request_configuration -> pcmcia_enable_device (as of 2.6.36)
15 pcmcia_request_configuration() got renamed to pcmcia_enable_device(),
16 as it mirrors pcmcia_disable_device(). Configuration settings are now
17 stored in struct pcmcia_device, e.g. in the fields config_flags,
18 config_index, config_base, vpp.
19
20* pcmcia_request_window changes (as of 2.6.36)
21 Instead of win_req_t, drivers are now requested to fill out
22 struct pcmcia_device *p_dev->resource[2,3,4,5] for up to four ioport
23 ranges. After a call to pcmcia_request_window(), the regions found there
24 are reserved and may be used immediately -- until pcmcia_release_window()
25 is called.
