I'm looking at merging/replacing ncrs with glm. However, there are some
devices that ncrs supports that glm doesn't. I'm hypothesizing that
such devices are so old that its likely that nobody has them.
If you use ncrs, I'd like to see:
prtconf -vp | grep pci1000
Also, are you willing to help test a newer glm replacement? (Its going
to be hard to qualify all the parts that ncrs supports if I can't get
access to the parts.)
Please e-mail this information directly to me.
If I fail to hear back from anyone with certain older revs of parts, I
might conclude that its safe to just drop support for them. (I'm
thinking of original 53c810 (not A variant), 53c825, 53c820, and 53c860
devices specifically.)
The benefit to such a merge would be a single driver (smaller code
base), using a common and more currently supported code base (including
for example support for 64-bit mode kernels.)
If I could find people who could test it for me, I'd even be willing to
add fast reboot support for the glm driver.
