124 | What: PCMCIA control ioctl (needed for pcmcia-cs [cardmgr, cardctl]) | ||
125 | When: November 2005 | ||
126 | Files: drivers/pcmcia/: pcmcia_ioctl.c | ||
127 | Why: With the 16-bit PCMCIA subsystem now behaving (almost) like a | ||
128 | normal hotpluggable bus, and with it using the default kernel | ||
129 | infrastructure (hotplug, driver core, sysfs) keeping the PCMCIA | ||
130 | control ioctl needed by cardmgr and cardctl from pcmcia-cs is | ||
131 | unnecessary, and makes further cleanups and integration of the | ||
132 | PCMCIA subsystem into the Linux kernel device driver model more | ||
133 | difficult. The features provided by cardmgr and cardctl are either | ||
134 | handled by the kernel itself now or are available in the new | ||
135 | pcmciautils package available at | ||
136 | http://kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/pcmcia/ | ||
