PATA: RPC now selects HAVE_PATA_PLATFORM for pata platform driver

2008-09-29T04:25:43+00:00

The RPC machine type now selects HAVE_PATA_PLATFORM so we can remove the special case in the PATA_PLATFORM configuration code. Cc: Russell King Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik

ahci, pata_marvell: play nicely together

2008-09-08T16:11:36+00:00

I've been chasing Jeff about this for months. Jeff added the Marvell device identifiers to the ahci driver without making the AHCI driver handle the PATA port. This means a lot of users can't use current kernels and in most distro cases can't even install. This has been going on since March 2008 for the 6121 Marvell, and late 2007 for the 6145!!! This was all pointed out at the time and repeatedly ignored. Bugs assigned to Jeff about this are ignored also. To quote Jeff in email > "Just switch the order of 'ahci' and 'pata_marvell' in > /etc/modprobe.conf, then use Fedora's tools regenerate the initrd. > See? It's not rocket science, and the current configuration can be > easily made to work for Fedora users." (Which isn't trivial, isn't end user, shouldn't be needed, and as it usually breaks at install time is in fact impossible) To quote Jeff in August 2007 > " mv-ahci-pata > Marvell 6121/6141 PATA support. Needs fixing in the 'PATA controller > command' area before it is usable, and can go upstream." Only he add the ids anyway later and caused regressions, adding a further id in March causing more regresions. The actual fix for the moment is very simple. If the user has included the pata_marvell driver let it drive the ports. If they've only selected for SATA support give them the AHCI driver which will run the port a fraction faster. Allow the user to control this decision via ahci.marvell_enable as a module parameter so that distributions can ship 'it works' defaults and smarter users (or config tools) can then flip it over it desired.

sparc: remove CONFIG_SUN4

2008-09-01T03:59:37+00:00

While doing some easy cleanups on the sparc code I noticed that the CONFIG_SUN4 code seems to be worse than the rest - there were some "I don't know how it should work, but the current code definitely cannot work." places. And while I have seen people running Linux on machines like a SPARCstation 5 a few years ago I don't recall having seen sun4 machines, even less ones running Linux.

LIBATA: Add HAVE_PATA_PLATFORM to select PATA_PLATFORM driver

2008-06-19T00:28:00+00:00

Add HAVE_PATA_PLATFORM to select the pata platform driver to ensure that we do not end up with a long 'depends on' list when other users of this driver turn up. Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik

[MIPS] ATA: Rename routerboard 500 to 532

2008-04-29T06:16:25+00:00

The platform is actually named routerboard 532 so let's call it this. This patch only rename files, Kconfig and C symbols; no functional changes. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik
