Yes, that was my plan. A patch that replicates that logic is easier to review and less likely to cause regressions (of course, I'd follow the existing conventions in arch/m68k/atari/config.c). Converting three drivers at once is a win because the first conversion is always the more difficult one. Therefore I'm planning to use the same logic three times over and therefore I'm not intending to address the peculiarities of different ports (that would be better done by you, me and Sam separately). However, I'll will need you and Sam to test some patches (if they meet with approval once you and Sam get to review them, of course). > - the SCSI chip directly mapped only in the TT integration, the Falcon > needs to access SCSI registers through the ST-DMA chip, and needs the > weird ST-DMA locking scheme plus a few other quirks. > > Looking at atari_scsi.c - the code is full of IS_A_TT() macros and other > Atari specfic macros that could be replaced by testing bits in a feature > map.

That would be a separate patch, so that each patch has a single well defined purpose. I'm not particularly concerned about atari_scsi.c. I am concerned about the three forks of the core driver (not least because of the shared header) that's why I've sent patches for sun3_NCR5380 and atari_NCR5380 in the past. > Might need another platform device for the ST-DMA as well ... I don't think that relates to scsi_register() deprecation. -- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-m68k" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
