* memsw: deprecate noswapaccount kernel parameter and schedule it for removalMichal Hocko2011-02-021-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | noswapaccount couldn't be used to control memsw for both on/off cases so we have added swapaccount[=0|1] parameter. This way we can turn the feature in two ways noswapaccount resp. swapaccount=0. We have kept the original noswapaccount but I think we should remove it after some time as it just makes more command line parameters without any advantages and also the code to handle parameters is uglier if we want both parameters.

| * ACPI: delete CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS_POWER and power procfs I/F in 2.6.39Zhang Rui2011-01-121-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sysfs I/F for ACPI power devices, including AC and Battery, has been working in upstream kenrel since 2.6.24, Sep 2007. In 2.6.37, we made the sysfs I/F always built in and this option disabled by default. Now, we plan to remove this option and the ACPI power procfs interface in 2.6.39. First, update the feature-removal-schedule to announce this change. Second, add runtime warnings in ACPI AC/Battery/SBS driver, so that users will notice this change even if "make oldconfig" is used.

| * V4L/DVB: Deprecate stradis driverMauro Carvalho Chehab2010-10-211-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The driver author seems to not worked on this driver since its conversion from 2.2 to 2.4. Nobody is known to have a stradis hardware for testing. As it still uses V4L1 API, BKL and probably some other old stuff, someone would need to work on it to preserve the driver. Instead of investing time and efforts to keep porting it to work with new API's, it seems better to just drop the driver. So, let's move it to drivers/staging and label it to die at 2.6.38, if nobody cares enough to port parallel port support to gspca or to create a new driver that uses the same gspca-cpia sub-driver.

The only functionality that were not migrated is the support for parallel port, as: 1) the developer didn't find any hardware; 2) it doesn't seem important to keep support for a parallel port webcam, as this is an obsolete technology; 3) the changes at gspca for it to work with parallel port would be very large; 4) this driver still uses BKL. So, let's move it to drivers/staging and label it to die at 2.6.38, if nobody cares enough to port parallel port support to gspca or to create a new driver that uses the same gspca-cpia sub-driver.

The driver firedtv in drivers/media/dvb/firewire/ contains backends to both ieee1394 and firewire-core. Its ieee1394 backend code can be removed in an independent commit; firedtv as-is builds and works fine without ieee1394. The driver pcilynx (an incomplete controller driver) is deleted without replacement since PCILynx cards are extremely rare. Owners of these cards use them with the stand-alone bus sniffer driver nosy instead. The drivers nosy and init_ohci1394_dma which do not interact with either of the two IEEE 1394 stacks are not affected by the ieee1394 subsystem removal. There are still some issues with the newer firewire subsystem compared to the older one: - The rare and quirky controllers ALi M52xx, Apple UniNorth v1, NVIDIA NForce2 are even less well supported by firewire-ohci than by ohci1394. I am looking into the M52xx issue. - The experimental firewire-net is reportedly less stable than its experimental cousin eth1394. - Audio playback of a certain group of audio devices (ones based on DICE chipset with EAP; supported by prerelease FFADO code) does not work yet. This issue is still under investigation. - There were some ieee1394 based out-of-the-mainline drivers. Of them, only lisight, an audio driver for iSight webcams, seems still useful. Work is underway to reimplement it on top of firewire-core. All these remainig issues are minor; they should not stand in the way of overall better user experience of IEEE 1394 on Linux, together with a reduction in support efforts and maintenance burden. The coexistence of two IEEE 1394 kernel driver stacks in the mainline since 2.6.22 shall end now, as announced earlier this year. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>

|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the recent innovations in CPU hardware acceleration technologies from Intel and AMD, VMware ran a few experiments to compare these techniques to guest paravirtualization technique on VMware's platform. These hardware assisted virtualization techniques have outperformed the performance benefits provided by VMI in most of the workloads. VMware expects that these hardware features will be ubiquitous in a couple of years, as a result, VMware has started a phased retirement of this feature from the hypervisor. Please note that VMI has always been an optimization and non-VMI kernels still work fine on VMware's platform. Latest versions of VMware's product which support VMI are, Workstation 7.0 and VSphere 4.0 on ESX side, future maintainence releases for these products will continue supporting VMI. For more details about VMI retirement take a look at this, http://blogs.vmware.com/guestosguide/2009/09/vmi-retirement.html This feature removal was scheduled for 2.6.37 back in September 2009.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | /proc/pid/oom_adj is now deprecated so that that it may eventually be removed. The target date for removal is August 2012. A warning will be printed to the kernel log if a task attempts to use this interface. Future warning will be suppressed until the kernel is rebooted to prevent spamming the kernel log.
