Hi,
This is the new batch of IrDA patches that have been tested on
the IrDA mailing list in the last 2 weeks. I've just recreated them
for 2.4.11-pre3, so they are ready to go in the kernel..
Changelog below, patch to follow...
Jean
[FEATURE] : Add a new feature to the IrDA stack
[CORRECT] : Fix to have the correct/expected behaviour
[CRITICA] : Fix potential kernel crash
ir240_vlsi_v0.3.diff :
--------------------
<From Martin Diehl, his changelog :>
v0.3:
* improve chip initialization which was insufficient in some rare
cases without cold reboot
* resync with v2.4.10 (irlap-hwname e.g.)
* add MODULE_LICENSE
* drop MOD_{INC|DEC}_USE_COUNT in favour of SET_MODULE_OWNER
* rename mtt_bits to qos_mtt_bits parameter like other irda
drivers use
v0.2:
* add Documentation/Configure.help entry
* datasize=2048 issues fixed
* major ring operation improvement and cleanup
* improved mtt handling
* few minor fixes
<Note : I think this patch also enable MIR/FIR operation, i.e. higher speeds>
