2008-04-27ide: remove obsoleted "idex=reset" kernel parameterBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz1-2/+0
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>
2008-04-27ide: remove obsoleted "idex=serialize" kernel parameterBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz1-5/+0

2008-04-27ide: add "ignore_cable" parameter (take 2)Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz1-5/+10
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).

2008-04-18ide: add ide-4drives host driver (take 3)Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz1-2/+3
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>

2008-04-18ide: remove CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD_IDE config option (take 2)Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz1-7/+0
* 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. Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
2008-04-18ide: add warm-plug support for IDE devices (take 2)Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz1-0/+13
* Add 'struct class ide_port_class' ('ide_port' class) and a 'struct device *portdev' ('ide_port' class device) in ide_hwif_t. * Register 'ide_port' class in ide_init() and unregister it in cleanup_module(). * Create ->portdev in ide_register_port () and unregister it in ide_unregister(). * Add "delete_devices" class device attribute for unregistering IDE devices on a port and "scan" one for probing+registering IDE devices on a port. * Add ide_sysfs_register_port() helper for registering "delete_devices" and "scan" attributes with ->portdev. Call it in ide_device_add_all(). * Document IDE warm-plug support in Documentation/ide/warm-plug-howto.txt. v2: * Convert patch from using 'struct class_device' to use 'struct device'. (thanks to Kay Sievers for doing it) Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
2008-04-18IDE: remove ide=reverse IDE coreGreg Kroah-Hartman1-2/+0
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>
2008-03-22ide: mark "hdx=remap" and "hdx=remap63" kernel parameters as obsoletedBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz1-5/+0
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>
2008-03-22ide: mark "hdx=[driver_name]" and "hdx=scsi" kernel parameters as obsoletedBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz1-4/+0
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>
2008-03-22ide: Documentation/ide/ide.txt fixesBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz1-9/+3
* "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.
