2005-07-06[PATCH] openfirmware: generate device table for userspaceJeff Mahoney
This converts the usage of struct of_match to struct of_device_id, similar to pci_device_id. This allows a device table to be generated, which can be parsed by depmod(8) to generate a map file for module loading. In order for hotplug to work with macio devices, patches to module-init-tools and hotplug must be applied. Those patches are available at: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/jeffm/linux/macio-hotplug/ Signed-off-by: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-04-22[PATCH] USB: scripts/mod/file2alias.c: handle numeric ranges for USB bcdDeviceRoman Kagan
Another attempt at that... The attached patch fixes the longstanding problem with USB bcdDevice numeric ranges incorrectly converted into patterns for MODULE_ALIAS generation. Previously it put both the lower and the upper limits into the pattern, dlXdhY, making it impossible to fnmatch against except for a few special cases, like dl*dh* or dlXdhX. The patch makes it generate multiple MODULE_ALIAS lines covering the whole range with fnmatch-able patterns. E.g. for a range between 0x0001 and 0x8345 it gives the following patterns: 000[1-9] 00[1-9]* 0[1-9]* [1-7]* 8[0-2]* 83[0-3]* 834[0-5] Since bcdDevice is 2 bytes wide = 4 digits in hex representation, the max no. of patters is 2 * 4 - 1 = 7. The values are BCD (binary-coded decimals) and not hex, so patterns using a dash seem to be safe regardless of locale collation order. The patch changes bcdDevice part of the alias from dlXdhY to dZ, but this shouldn't have big compatibility issues because fnmatch()-based modprobing hasn't yet been widely used. Besides, the most common (and almost the only working) case of dl*dh* becomes d* and thus continues to work. The patch is against 2.6.12-rc2, applies to -mm3 with an offset. The matching patch to fix the MODALIAS environment variable now generated by the usb hotplug function follows.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
