Hi all --
Bryan "TheBS" Smith here with AVS (Linux-WLAN domain). There was a
recent set of cross-posts to our "linux-wlan-devel[oper]" list that I
might have rejected without proper review. We normally limit posting to
our "devel[oper]" list to subscribers only, because a good 20-30% of the

This was a point I tried to make but failed.
Not all SCB/SRB's are highmem tested but OEM's claim support.
This I tried to have BIO change to do highmen drop to the lowmem window

Thanks for the info. It may have been discussed 'here' (tho, this is
crosposted to two different lists), but I've been focused on 2.4 bugs (one
more left!) and hadn't seen this item.
I think for the first 2.5 kernels, we'll o with your 'vaddr' line, but I

But, since this is USB anyway, it can be yanked from the bus at any time.

Here's a patch for 2.4.17, functionally matching the pending patches
for 2.5, that adds EHCI and "high speed USB" support. It adds:
- updates to the TT support, so USB 2.0 hubs work somewhat
- basic "hcd" framework (will evolve more in 2.5)
- EHCI driver plugging into both the above
For those who have sent me patches, but didn't see them in this series,
don't worry, I still have a lot more to go. I just wanted to try to
send them in small batches, instead of flooding Linus with 20+ patches :)
thanks,

Hi,
Here's a patch against 2.5.2-pre5 that adds the USB kl5kusb105 driver.
The driver was written by Utz-Uwe Haus. A patch to add the driver to
the build and the Configure.help entry will be sent later.

Hi,

the vfs much better. It also removes the usbdev entries from the inode

Hi,
Here's a patch against 2.5.2-pre5 that removes the
piso_packet_descriptor_t and purb_t typedefs from the usb.h file and
fixes all of the code that referenced these typedefs. It also makes the
FILL_*_URB macros use the usb_fill_*_urb inline functions.

Don't build USB stuff in his tree. It is not correct. I've been
pushing the proper changes to the different maintainers (Alan, Marcelo,
and Linus.)
If you want to see (and get) the latest copy of the USB trees, go to:

No :)

Hi,
Thanks for your help.
One small question I still have:
> You in the driver decide the minor.
If I use the DEVFS_FL_AUTO_DEVNUM flag in devfs_register(), can I still
control the minor given? Or is this given automatically as well?
Thanks,
Amira.

Hi,
Thanks for your help.
Assuming that the usb driver is written for kernel v2.4 and above, I suppose
I can use the devfs and dynamic allocation of major and minor numbers
instead of fixed minors.
I read some stuff about it, but since I'm new to Linux I still have a few
questions that I would
