* ide: remove obsoleted "hdx=autotune" kernel parameterBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz2008-04-27
| | | | | | | | | * Remove obsoleted "hdx=autotune" kernel parameter (we always auto-tune PIO if possible nowadays). * Remove no longer needed ide_drive_t.autotune flag. Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
* ide: mark "idebus=" kernel parameter as obsoleted (take 2)Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz2008-04-27
| | | | | | | We have "vlb|pci_clock=" parameters now. Acked-by: Sergei Shtylyov <sshtylyov@ru.mvista.com> Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
* ide: remove obsoleted "idex=" kernel parametersBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz2008-04-27
| | | | | | | | | * Remove obsoleted "idex=" kernel parameters. * Make probe_* and cmd640_vlb variables static. Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
* ide: remove obsoleted "idex=reset" kernel parameterBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz2008-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | Remove obsoleted "idex=reset" kernel parameter (it has been obsoleted since 1 Nov 2004). Then remove corresponding code from ide_probe_port() and no longer used ->reset field from ide_hwif_t. Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>

* ide: add "ignore_cable" parameter (take 2)Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz2008-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add "ignore_cable" parameter: * "ide_core.ignore_cable=[interface_number]" boot option if IDE is built-in (i.e. "ide_core.ignore_cable=1" to force ignoring cable for "ide1") * "ignore_cable=[interface_number]" module parameter (for ide_core module) if IDE is compiled as module v2: * Add ide_port_apply_params() helper - use it in ide_device_add_all() and ide_scan_port(). * Make it possible to later disable ignoring cable detection by passing "[interface_number]:0" to /sys/module/ide_core/parameters/ignore_cable (however sysfs interface is not enabled yet since it needs some other IDE changes to make it work reliable).

* ide: add ide-4drives host driver (take 3)Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz2008-04-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | CONFIG_BLK_DEV_4DRIVES deserves its own host driver: * Add drivers/ide/legacy/ide-4drives.c and move "4drives" support there. * Add ide-4drives.o in the link order after all other legacy host drivers enabled by "ide0=" options (they all are mutually exclusive). * Make ide-4drives host driver probe itself for IDE devices instead of indirectly depending on ide_generic host driver. * Add "probe" module parameter to ide-4drives and update documentation. v2: * s/paramater/parameter/ in ide.txt. (Noticed by Randy Dunlap) v3: * s/ide_4drives.probe/ide-4drives.probe/ in help entry. (Noticed by Sergei Shtylyov) Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>

* ide: remove CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD_IDE config option (take 2)Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz2008-04-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Remove CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD hack from init_hwif_default() ("hda=noprobe hdb=noprobe" kernel parameters should be used instead if somebody wishes to use the old "hd" driver). * Make CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD_ONLY config option available also when IDE subsystem is used and update help entry. * Remove no longer needed CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD_IDE config option. v2: * Update documentation to suggest "hda=noprobe hdb=noprobe" instead of obsoleted "ide0=noprobe". * Update Documentation/ide/ide.txt.

* IDE: remove ide=reverse IDE coreGreg Kroah-Hartman2008-04-17
| | | | | | | | | | This option is obsolete and can be removed safely. It allows us to remove the pci_get_device_reverse() function from the PCI core. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
* ide: mark "hdx=remap" and "hdx=remap63" kernel parameters as obsoletedBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz2008-03-22
| | | | | | | | Mark "hdx=remap" and "hdx=remap63" kernel parameters as obsoleted (they are layering violation and should be dealt with in the same way as done by libata - device-mapper should be used instead). Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
* ide: mark "hdx=[driver_name]" and "hdx=scsi" kernel parameters as obsoletedBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz2008-03-22
| | | | | | | | Mark "hdx=[driver_name]" and "hdx=scsi" kernel parameters as obsoleted (nowadays device-driver binding can be changed at runtime through sysfs and it can also be dealt with using per device driver parameters). Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
* ide: Documentation/ide/ide.txt fixesBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz2008-03-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | * "hdx=cyls,heads,sects,wpcom,irq" should be "hdx=cyls,heads,sects". * "hdx=" is for "x" from 'a' to 'u', "idex=" is for "x" from '0' to '9'. * "idex=noautotune" is long gone. * Obsoleted "ide0=" parameters were already removed from the documentation.
