- Note: hfa384x*.c are currently undergoing some changes. I believe
these changes have broken some things for pcmcia/pci/plx support. I'm
not certain since I haven't tested them. As such, this is a USB ONLY
release.
- Cleaned up the use of hfa384x_drvr_*() vs. hfa384x_cmd_*() a little.
This is a work in progress.
- Rewrote the USB request/response machine again.
- Added tnewsham's keygen program to the add-ons directory. I don't
include it in the overall build because I'm not comfortable with making
this package dependent on openssl right now. It is supposed to generate
keys in a manner identical to the windows software. I have personally
keys in a manner identical to the windows software. I have not personally
verified this. If someone wants to contribute more complete build
instructions for this program, please do.

between the initial 'ifconfig up' and the later ifconfig that assigns
the address. 'ifconfig down' will shut down and reset the hardware.
If you down the interface, all that good work in step 2 will be lost.
- Rewrote the USB request/response machine
- Moved all memmapped/irq interface elements from prism2*.c to hfa384x.c
in preparation for adding USB support.
- Fixed 'make clean' so it doesn't generate .depend files.

Release Notes
This release is intended to get the USB support into the hands of those who
need it as soon as possible. It is most certainly not complete.
This release has been tested with kernel.org stock kernels:
2.2.20
2.4.14
We use only clean kernel source trees from ftp.kernel.org. If you are using
a patched kernel from some other source, your mileage may vary.
Areas with open issues:
- Under 2.2.19 only works with the "Alternate" UHCI driver (uhci.o)
- Need more testing with the OHCI Host Controller Driver (HCD).
- Under 2.2.20 it only works with the "Alternate" UHCI driver (uhci.o)
- Need testing with the OHCI Host Controller Driver (HCD), I don't have
one.
- Hot plugging - Differences in the linux HCD implementations for
different USB host interface hardware, different versions
of the HCD implementations, and some unique requirements
@ -24,14 +31,7 @@ Areas with open issues:
- Unload the prism2_usb driver
- Replacing synchronous command calls with asynch versions. Not all of
the event handlers have been modified yet.
- Integration with usbmgr or the new linux hotplug support.
- More testing with linux-2.4.x. The majority of development and testing
has been done with linux-2.2.19. One note: We use clean kernel source
trees from ftp.kernel.org. If you are using a patched kernel from some
other source, your mileage may vary.
- Need to test with the Prism2.x device one or more hubs away from the
host. All testing thus far has been done with the device directly
connected to the host.
- Integration with usbmgr and the new linux hotplug support.
- Add firmware download support.
