ChangeLog file for thinkpad device drivers
==========================================

Changes to the debian/ subdirectory are logged in debian/changelog.

TODO
----
- Add /proc interface for some commonly used functions?
- Submit drivers for inclusion into kernel tree:
    Merge smapi with mwave
    Merge superio with char drivers
    Merge rtcmosram with rtc
    Merge thinkpadpm with apm
- Better support newer ThinkPads
                         HELP WOULD BE WELCOME

5.8 changes from 5.7
--------------------
19Sep2004 JDTH : thinkpadpm: Switch from unsigned long to cpumask_t.
                 Thanks to Stefan Seyfried for the clue.

5.7 changes from 5.6
--------------------
18Sep2004 TT/JDTH : Fix compilation failure under Linux 2.6.9.
                    Thanks to Ari Pollak and Theodore Ts'o for
		    patches.

5.6 changes from 5.5
--------------------
15Aug2004 ER/JDTH : Fix Makefile bug.  Thanks to Eric Raymond
                    for the fix.

5.5 changes from 5.2
--------------------
30Apr2004 D/JDTH : Change name of miscdevice to "thinkpad"
                   from the former "thinkpad/thinkpad".  Thanks
                   to the Deuce for the fix.

5.2 changes from 5.1
--------------------
29Apr2004 D/JDTH : Add asmlinkage attribute to SMAPI_BIOS_do()
                   declaration.  This makes the smapi module not
                   oops Linux 2.6.4.  Thanks to the Deuce for the
                   fix.
27Feb2004 JDTH : Update SUPPORTED-MODELS with information re: R40
                 graciously provided by Meik Hellmund


5.1 changes from 5.0
--------------------
02Feb2004 JDTH : Remove deb and tarball targets from the Makefile
               : uninstall_modules: Delete files more safely and
                 don't fail if modules can't be removed

5.0 changes from 4.7
--------------------
14Jan2004 MH,BZ/JDTH : Bring the 2.6 drivers' Makefile up to date
                       Thanks a lot to Michael Hagemann, Bernd Zeimetz
                       and Philipp Hahn for providing patches.
          JDTH       : Rip out devfs support

4.7 changes from 4.6
--------------------
18Aug2003 JDTH : Improvements to Debian maintainer scripts
                 Use "chown nm:grp" instead of "chown nm.grp" as per POSIX

4.6 changes from 4.4
--------------------
24Jun2003 JDTH : Move modutils material from tpctl README to
                 thinkpad README
               : Move drivers and include under "2.6" subdir now that we
                 know that that is the number of the next Linux release.
                 Linux 2.6 is NOT YET SUPPORTED.

4.4 changes from 4.3
--------------------
21Mar2003 CK/JDTH : Update README with better explanation of how to use
                    Debian's make-kpkg
24Mar2003 CK/JDTH : Documentation fixes thanks to Charles Kaufman

4.3 changes from 4.2
--------------------
21Mar2003 PN/JDTH : Surround MODULE_* declarations in current and 2.4 drivers
                    with #ifdef MODULE...#endif.  This makes it easier to
                    include the drivers in the kernel tree.
                    Thanks to Planel Nicolas for the patch.
10Mar2003 JDTH : Update README

4.2 changes from 4.1
--------------------
30Nov2002 JDTH : Fix drivers/Makefile so that it works nicely with
                 user CFLAGS.

4.1 changes from 4.0
--------------------
27Nov2002 JDTH : Update README:
                 Explain how to compile for Linux 2.4 and 2.2.
19Nov2002 JDTH : Copy drivers to 2.4 directory and start hacking on
                 the drivers to support Linux 2.5:
               : save_flags(flags); cli(); => local_irq_save(flags)
                 restore_flags(flags);   => local_irq_restore(flags)
               : Change Debian packaging scripts.  (See changelog.)
               : Update SUPPORTED-MODELS

4.0 changes from 3.7
--------------------
17Oct2002 JDTH : Bump major version because the use of misc_register
                 as we now do requires a very recent 2.4 kernel.
               : Remove unused ETHINKPAD_EXECUTION
               : Use C99 style named initialisers
               : Change ETHINKPAD_* error codes: eliminate ambiguity
               : Eliminate devfs interface code from thinkpad --
                 just use misc_register().  Correct functioning
                 requires Linux 2.4.19 or later.
               : Update README
               : Update man page
               : Update Debian packaging -- See the Debian changelog
               : thinkpadpm_init now aborts if APM is disabled, thus
                 preventing an oops if ACPI is being used.

3.7 changes from 3.6
--------------------
 7Aug2002 JDTH : Don't clobber KSRC in Makefiles
               : Modify README to mention need for modversions.h 

3.6 changes from 3.3
--------------------
13Apr2002 JDTH : Update README
               : Bump smapi driver version (forgot to do it in 3.1)

3.3 changes from 3.2
--------------------
27Mar2002 JDTH : Update thinkpad.4 man page

3.2 changes from 3.1
--------------------
 9Mar2002 JDTH : Add thinkpad.4 man page
               : Update docs

3.1 changes from 3.0
--------------------
28Feb2002 JDTH : Add debian directory
               : Reduce frequency of reports of differing SMAPI
                 return codes
               : Include 2.2 directory containing drivers from 1.0
                 which work with Linux 2.2
18Feb2002 JDTH : Add A30 to SUPPORTED-MODELS

-------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------

 3Feb2002 JDTH : Simplified proc read functions
23Dec2001 JDTH : Release thinkpad 3.0pre6

                 modules can be used with kernels < 2.4.10
 7Dec2001 JDTH : Release thinkpad 3.0pre5
 7Dec2001 JDTH : Change instructions on configuring devfsd in the
                 README file, to reflect recent changes in devfs
14Nov2001 JDTH : Release tpctl 3.0pre4
14Nov2001 JDTH : Janitorial work:
                    Make type of all flags in tpctl flag_t
                 I hope the janitor didn't break anything
               : Tweak --pra handling to reflect the fact that 
                 appointments are made either for every day or
                 for every century.  Tweak printf, scanf formats.
26Oct2001 JDTH : Release 3.0pre3
24Oct2001 JDTH : Update thinkpad README file
24Oct2001 JDTH : Change module parameter names to omit "thinkpad"
                 prefix which isn't necessary if we simply make
                 the parameter variables static.  This reverts a
                 change made for 2.5.  Sorry!!
24Oct2001 JDTH : Sync thinkpadpm code with the apm driver code from
                 which it was copied
22Oct2001 JDTH : Update TROUBLESHOOTING file again
18Oct2001 JDTH : Release 3.0pre2

28Aug2001 JDTH : Add devfs support to ntpctl as I did to tpctl
               : Update TODO
27Jul2001 JDTH : Added devfs support to thinkpad and smapi modules
               : Cleaned up driver init and exit functions
               : Modified tpctl so it checks /dev/thinkpad/thinkpad
               : Split into two packages:
                    thinkpad  -- device drivers
                    tpctl     -- tpctl and kindred binaries and lib
               : Eliminate Makefile-common

2.5 changes from 2.4
--------------------
25Jul2001 JDTH : Added reference to new ed. of Linux Device Drivers
               : Change module options enable_* -> thinkpad_enable_*
               : Introduce a global variable "thinkpad_ppde" so that
                   other modules will require thinkpad module in
                   order to load, thus preventing corruption of
                   proc fs.  This eliminates the needs for "below"
                   statements in /etc/modules.conf.  Updated README
                   accordingly.
               : Eliminate *_MOD_USE_COUNT etc. in favour of
                   kernel's automatic ref counting
17Jul2001 JDTH : Change rtcmosram to use rtc_lock spinlock
                 instead of disabling interrupts.
               : Eliminate proc fs optionalness
               : Update README for devfs users
27Apr2001 JDTH : Fixed comments in several header files
16Apr2001 JDTH : Add INFO-BIOS file to tarball

2.4 changes from 2.3

22Jan2001 JDTH : Rename thinkpad_mod_defines.h to thinkpad_module.h
22Jan2001 JDTH : Remove VIAGRA #ifdef ... #endif since hw access
                 seems safe enough

                    ioctl_rtcmosram() from smapidev since these have
                    nothing to do with SMAPI; move them into tpctl.c.
17July2000 JDTH   : Change display of parallel port mode so that it
                    is the same as what you have to input to change

13Dec99 JDTH : No longer install tpctlify

0.7.4 changes from 0.7.3
------------------------
11Dec99 JDTH : Fixed nasty bug in Makefile that caused /lib/modules
               to be wiped out on install.  DO NOT INSTALL 0.7.3 !
11Dec99 JDTH : Eliminated RPM-related stuff.  Will release only
               tarballs from now on.
11Dec99 JDTH : Changed modules installation directory to:
               /lib/modules/<running.kernel.version>/thinkpad

0.7.3 changes from 0.7.2
------------------------
8Dec99  JDTH : Added "other_tools" directory with two nifty tools:
               tpctlir     -- enables/disables infrared subsystem on
                              ThinkPads with Programmable Option Select

29Jul99 JDTH : Change handling of error codes so that it does not
               rely upon ioctl() returning positive error codes
               to the user.  Such reliance is not portable.

0.6.0 changes from 0.5.10
-------------------------
29Jul99 JDTH : Change highlighting to "bold" and use the curses
               library to get the appropriate terminal control
               strings.

-------------------------
28Jul99 JDTH : (Build 2+) Allow rtcmosram module to load even if ioports are
               occupied.
28Jul99 JDTH : Complete modularization: modules are now automatically and
               independently loadable and unloadable.  When tpctl is run,
               thinkpad.o is loaded by the module loader as per instructions
               in /etc/modules.conf.  The thinkpad module, in turn, requests
               the loading of the other modules as they are needed to perform
               ioctl requests.  Loading of a module is inhibited by setting
               "enable_<module>" to zero, which can be done at load time or
               via ioctl().  See README.
27Jul99 JDTH : Simplify "SIZE_..._MAX" macros
28Jul99 JDTH : Change '--silent' to '--quiet' since the switch doesn't
               make tpctl completely silent.

0.5.9 changes from 0.5.8
------------------------
27Jul99 JDTH : Use more standard error messaging
27Jul99 JDTH : Hive off smapi, superio and rtcmosram as distinctly
               loadable modules.
27Jul99 JDTH : Fix bug in smapi:locate_smb_header()
27Jul99 JDTH : Fix bug in --pra output
27Jul99 JDTH : Abandon "variants" idea of 0.5.8 since it doesn't solve
               the problem that it was meant to solve
27Jul99 JDTH : Add /proc/* entries for each enabled submodule
27Jul99 JDTH : Add module parameters to thinkpad.o to govern enabling of 
               the subordinate modules
27Jul99 JDTH : Make superio mod more careful about interrupt cli/restore
27Jul99 JDTH : Clean up module code a lot: make it much more kernelifically
               correct and fault tolerant

0.5.8 changes from 0.5.7
-------------------------
25Jul99 JDTH : Package rpm with both modversions and non-modversions variants
25Jul99 JDTH : (release 5:) and install these in /lib/modules/thinkpad/thinkpad
               and symlink /lib/modules/thinkpad/thinkpad.o to the right one
25Jul99 JDTH : Fix bug in Usage output
25Jul99 JDTH : Require write access for writing to CMOS RAM

-------------------------
22Jul99 JDTH : Added info about confuring serial ports to README
22Jul99 JDTH : Tried to make superio more kosher with its ioport usage
22Jul99 JDTH : Made checking for Super I/O chip a little more careful.

0.5.4 changes from 0.5.3
-------------------------
22Jul99 JDTH : Display appointment info all on one line
22Jul99 JDTH : Changed tpctlify to check for perl before invoking it
               Also, make it more verbose
22Jul99 JDTH : Changed so that print formatting is nicer when many arguments
               are given.  Highlighting option improved and enabled for
               binary distribution.
               Options added:
                  --pdZh --pdZu
                  --x --sx --px etc.
               Option names changed:
                  --iu  -->  --iU
                  --state-*  -->  --setup-*
               I hope this didn't break anything.
