usb: auerswald: remove driver (obsolete)

2008-08-14T00:32:47+00:00

This patch removes the auerswald USB driver from the linux kernel
2.6.26.

This driver was included into the kernel mainly to connect to the ISDN
framework. This was done in linux 2.4.x. For 2.6.x, due to the fragile
and moving ISDN support, this connection was never realized, and the
only use of this driver was for device configuration. In the age of DSL,
the demand of ISDN support is getting very low.

Meanwhile, with the advent of libusb, an userspace driver was done for
the device configuration which works fine for linux and mac. (Thanks to
the libusb developers!). The userspace driver is downloadable from the
auerswald web site.

So this driver is obsolete now and has to be removed. Many thanks to all
developers which helped me to bring this driver up and working.

USB: use reset_resume when normal resume fails

2008-07-21T22:16:48+00:00

This patch (as1109b) makes USB-Persist more resilient to errors.  With
the current code, if a normal resume fails, it's an unrecoverable
error.  With the patch, if a normal resume fails (and if the device is
enabled for USB-Persist) then a reset-resume is tried.

This fixes the problem reported in Bugzilla #10977.

usb gadget: use new serial core

2008-07-21T22:15:59+00:00

Teach "gadget serial" to use the new abstracted (and bugfixed) TTY glue,
and remove all the orignal tangled-up code.  Update the documentation
accordingly.  This is a net object code shrink and cleanup; it should
make it a lot easier to see how the TTY glue should accomodate updates
to the TTY layer, be bugfixed, etc.

Notable behavior changes include:  it can now support getty even when
there's no USB connection; it fits properly into the mdev/udev world;
and RX handling is better (throttling works, and low latency).

Configurations with scripts setting up the /dev/ttygserial device node
(with "experimental" major number) may want to change that to be a
symlink pointing to the /dev/ttyGS0 file, as a migration aid; else,
just switch entirely over to mdev/udev.
