++This is the contents of some of the drivers/usb/serial/ files that had old

++people still care to see them.
++
++- Greg Kroah-Hartman <greg@kroah.com> October 20, 2005
++
++-----------------------------------------------------------------------
++usb-serial.h Change Log comments:
++
++ (03/26/2002) gkh
++ removed the port->tty check from port_paranoia_check() due to serial
++ consoles not having a tty device assigned to them.
++
++ (12/03/2001) gkh
++ removed active from the port structure.
++ added documentation to the usb_serial_device_type structure
++
++ (10/10/2001) gkh
++ added vendor and product to serial structure. Needed to determine device
++ owner when the device is disconnected.
++
++ (05/30/2001) gkh
++ added sem to port structure and removed port_lock
++
++ (10/05/2000) gkh
++ Added interrupt_in_endpointAddress and bulk_in_endpointAddress to help
++ fix bug with urb->dev not being set properly, now that the usb core
++ needs it.
++
++ (09/11/2000) gkh
++ Added usb_serial_debug_data function to help get rid of #DEBUG in the
++ drivers.
++
++ (08/28/2000) gkh
++ Added port_lock to port structure.
++
++ (08/08/2000) gkh
++ Added open_count to port structure.
++
++ (07/23/2000) gkh
++ Added bulk_out_endpointAddress to port structure.
++
++ (07/19/2000) gkh, pberger, and borchers
++ Modifications to allow usb-serial drivers to be modules.
++
++-----------------------------------------------------------------------
++usb-serial.c Change Log comments:
++
++ (12/10/2002) gkh
++ Split the ports off into their own struct device, and added a
++ usb-serial bus driver.
++
++ (11/19/2002) gkh
++ removed a few #ifdefs for the generic code and cleaned up the failure
++ logic in initialization.
++
++ (10/02/2002) gkh
++ moved the console code to console.c and out of this file.
++
++ (06/05/2002) gkh
++ moved location of startup() call in serial_probe() until after all
++ of the port information and endpoints are initialized. This makes
++ things easier for some drivers.
++
++ (04/10/2002) gkh
++ added serial_read_proc function which creates a
++ /proc/tty/driver/usb-serial file.
++
++ (03/27/2002) gkh
++ Got USB serial console code working properly and merged into the main
++ version of the tree. Thanks to Randy Dunlap for the initial version
++ of this code, and for pushing me to finish it up.
++ The USB serial console works with any usb serial driver device.
++
++ (03/21/2002) gkh
++ Moved all manipulation of port->open_count into the core. Now the
++ individual driver's open and close functions are called only when the
++ first open() and last close() is called. Making the drivers a bit
++ smaller and simpler.
++ Fixed a bug if a driver didn't have the owner field set.
++
++ (02/26/2002) gkh
++ Moved all locking into the main serial_* functions, instead of having
++ the individual drivers have to grab the port semaphore. This should
++ reduce races.
++ Reworked the MOD_INC logic a bit to always increment and decrement, even
++ if the generic driver is being used.
++
++ (10/10/2001) gkh
++ usb_serial_disconnect() now sets the serial->dev pointer is to NULL to
++ help prevent child drivers from accessing the device since it is now
++ gone.
++
++ (09/13/2001) gkh
++ Moved generic driver initialize after we have registered with the USB
++ core. Thanks to Randy Dunlap for pointing this problem out.
++
++ (07/03/2001) gkh
++ Fixed module paramater size. Thanks to John Brockmeyer for the pointer.
++ Fixed vendor and product getting defined through the MODULE_PARM macro
++ if the Generic driver wasn't compiled in.
++ Fixed problem with generic_shutdown() not being called for drivers that
++ don't have a shutdown() function.
++
++ (06/06/2001) gkh
++ added evil hack that is needed for the prolific pl2303 device due to the
++ crazy way its endpoints are set up.
++
++ (05/30/2001) gkh
++ switched from using spinlock to a semaphore, which fixes lots of problems.
++
++ (04/08/2001) gb
++ Identify version on module load.
++
++ 2001_02_05 gkh
++ Fixed buffer overflows bug with the generic serial driver. Thanks to
++ Todd Squires <squirest@ct0.com> for fixing this.
++
++ (01/10/2001) gkh
++ Fixed bug where the generic serial adaptor grabbed _any_ device that was
++ offered to it.
++
++ (12/12/2000) gkh
++ Removed MOD_INC and MOD_DEC from poll and disconnect functions, and
++ moved them to the serial_open and serial_close functions.
++ Also fixed bug with there not being a MOD_DEC for the generic driver
++ (thanks to Gary Brubaker for finding this.)
++
++ (11/29/2000) gkh
++ Small NULL pointer initialization cleanup which saves a bit of disk image
++
++ (11/01/2000) Adam J. Richter
++ instead of using idVendor/idProduct pairs, usb serial drivers
++ now identify their hardware interest with usb_device_id tables,
++ which they usually have anyhow for use with MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE.
++
++ (10/05/2000) gkh
++ Fixed bug with urb->dev not being set properly, now that the usb
++ core needs it.
++
++ (09/11/2000) gkh
++ Removed DEBUG #ifdefs with call to usb_serial_debug_data
++
++ (08/28/2000) gkh
++ Added port_lock to port structure.
++ Added locks for SMP safeness to generic driver
++ Fixed the ability to open a generic device's port more than once.
++
++ (07/23/2000) gkh
++ Added bulk_out_endpointAddress to port structure.
++
++ (07/19/2000) gkh, pberger, and borchers
++ Modifications to allow usb-serial drivers to be modules.
++
++ (07/03/2000) gkh
++ Added more debugging to serial_ioctl call
++
++ (06/25/2000) gkh
++ Changed generic_write_bulk_callback to not call wake_up_interruptible
++ directly, but to have port_softint do it at a safer time.
++
++ (06/23/2000) gkh
++ Cleaned up debugging statements in a quest to find UHCI timeout bug.
++
++ (05/22/2000) gkh
++ Changed the makefile, enabling the big CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_SOMTHING to be
++ removed from the individual device source files.
++
++ (05/03/2000) gkh
++ Added the Digi Acceleport driver from Al Borchers and Peter Berger.
++
++ (05/02/2000) gkh
++ Changed devfs and tty register code to work properly now. This was based on
++ the ACM driver changes by Vojtech Pavlik.
++
++ (04/27/2000) Ryan VanderBijl
++ Put calls to *_paranoia_checks into one function.
++
++ (04/23/2000) gkh
++ Fixed bug that Randy Dunlap found for Generic devices with no bulk out ports.
++ Moved when the startup code printed out the devices that are supported.
++
++ (04/19/2000) gkh
++ Added driver for ZyXEL omni.net lcd plus ISDN TA
++ Made startup info message specify which drivers were compiled in.
++
++ (04/03/2000) gkh
++ Changed the probe process to remove the module unload races.
++ Changed where the tty layer gets initialized to have devfs work nicer.
++ Added initial devfs support.
++
++ (03/26/2000) gkh
++ Split driver up into device specific pieces.
++
++ (03/19/2000) gkh
++ Fixed oops that could happen when device was removed while a program
++ was talking to the device.
++ Removed the static urbs and now all urbs are created and destroyed
++ dynamically.
++ Reworked the internal interface. Now everything is based on the
++ usb_serial_port structure instead of the larger usb_serial structure.
++ This fixes the bug that a multiport device could not have more than
++ one port open at one time.
++
++ (03/17/2000) gkh
++ Added config option for debugging messages.
++ Added patch for keyspan pda from Brian Warner.
++
++ (03/06/2000) gkh
++ Added the keyspan pda code from Brian Warner <warner@lothar.com>
++ Moved a bunch of the port specific stuff into its own structure. This
++ is in anticipation of the true multiport devices (there's a bug if you
++ try to access more than one port of any multiport device right now)
++
++ (02/21/2000) gkh
++ Made it so that any serial devices only have to specify which functions
++ they want to overload from the generic function calls (great,
++ inheritance in C, in a driver, just what I wanted...)
++ Added support for set_termios and ioctl function calls. No drivers take
++ advantage of this yet.
++ Removed the #ifdef MODULE, now there is no module specific code.
++ Cleaned up a few comments in usb-serial.h that were wrong (thanks again
++ to Miles Lott).
++ Small fix to get_free_serial.
++
++ (02/14/2000) gkh
++ Removed the Belkin and Peracom functionality from the driver due to
++ the lack of support from the vendor, and me not wanting people to
++ accidenatly buy the device, expecting it to work with Linux.
++ Added read_bulk_callback and write_bulk_callback to the type structure
++ for the needs of the FTDI and WhiteHEAT driver.
++ Changed all reverences to FTDI to FTDI_SIO at the request of Bill
++ Ryder.
++ Changed the output urb size back to the max endpoint size to make
++ the ftdi_sio driver have it easier, and due to the fact that it didn't
++ really increase the speed any.
++
++ (02/11/2000) gkh
++ Added VISOR_FUNCTION_CONSOLE to the visor startup function. This was a
++ patch from Miles Lott (milos@insync.net).
++ Fixed bug with not restoring the minor range that a device grabs, if
++ the startup function fails (thanks Miles for finding this).
++
++ (02/05/2000) gkh
++ Added initial framework for the Keyspan PDA serial converter so that
++ Brian Warner has a place to put his code.
++ Made the ezusb specific functions generic enough that different
++ devices can use them (whiteheat and keyspan_pda both need them).
++ Split out a whole bunch of structure and other stuff to a separate
++ usb-serial.h file.
++ Made the Visor connection messages a little more understandable, now
++ that Miles Lott (milos@insync.net) has gotten the Generic channel to
++ work. Also made them always show up in the log file.
++
++ (01/25/2000) gkh
++ Added initial framework for FTDI serial converter so that Bill Ryder
++ has a place to put his code.
++ Added the vendor specific info from Handspring. Now we can print out
++ informational debug messages as well as understand what is happening.
++
++ (01/23/2000) gkh
++ Fixed problem of crash when trying to open a port that didn't have a
++ device assigned to it. Made the minor node finding a little smarter,
++ now it looks to find a continuous space for the new device.
++
++ (01/21/2000) gkh
++ Fixed bug in visor_startup with patch from Miles Lott (milos@insync.net)
++ Fixed get_serial_by_minor which was all messed up for multi port
++ devices. Fixed multi port problem for generic devices. Now the number
++ of ports is determined by the number of bulk out endpoints for the
++ generic device.
++
++ (01/19/2000) gkh
++ Removed lots of cruft that was around from the old (pre urb) driver
++ interface.
++ Made the serial_table dynamic. This should save lots of memory when
++ the number of minor nodes goes up to 256.
++ Added initial support for devices that have more than one port.
++ Added more debugging comments for the Visor, and added a needed
++ set_configuration call.
++
++ (01/17/2000) gkh
++ Fixed the WhiteHEAT firmware (my processing tool had a bug)
++ and added new debug loader firmware for it.
++ Removed the put_char function as it isn't really needed.
++ Added visor startup commands as found by the Win98 dump.
++
++ (01/13/2000) gkh
++ Fixed the vendor id for the generic driver to the one I meant it to be.
++
++ (01/12/2000) gkh
++ Forget the version numbering...that's pretty useless...
++ Made the driver able to be compiled so that the user can select which
++ converter they want to use. This allows people who only want the Visor
++ support to not pay the memory size price of the WhiteHEAT.
++ Fixed bug where the generic driver (idVendor=0000 and idProduct=0000)
++ grabbed the root hub. Not good.
++
++ version 0.4.0 (01/10/2000) gkh
++ Added whiteheat.h containing the firmware for the ConnectTech WhiteHEAT
++ device. Added startup function to allow firmware to be downloaded to
++ a device if it needs to be.
++ Added firmware download logic to the WhiteHEAT device.
++ Started to add #defines to split up the different drivers for potential
++ configuration option.
++
++ version 0.3.1 (12/30/99) gkh
++ Fixed problems with urb for bulk out.
++ Added initial support for multiple sets of endpoints. This enables
++ the Handspring Visor to be attached successfully. Only the first
++ bulk in / bulk out endpoint pair is being used right now.
++
++ version 0.3.0 (12/27/99) gkh
++ Added initial support for the Handspring Visor based on a patch from
++ Miles Lott (milos@sneety.insync.net)
++ Cleaned up the code a bunch and converted over to using urbs only.
++
++ version 0.2.3 (12/21/99) gkh
++ Added initial support for the Connect Tech WhiteHEAT converter.
++ Incremented the number of ports in expectation of getting the
++ WhiteHEAT to work properly (4 ports per connection).
++ Added notification on insertion and removal of what port the
++ device is/was connected to (and what kind of device it was).
++
++ version 0.2.2 (12/16/99) gkh
++ Changed major number to the new allocated number. We're legal now!
++
++ version 0.2.1 (12/14/99) gkh
++ Fixed bug that happens when device node is opened when there isn't a
++ device attached to it. Thanks to marek@webdesign.no for noticing this.
++
++ version 0.2.0 (11/10/99) gkh
++ Split up internals to make it easier to add different types of serial
++ converters to the code.
++ Added a "generic" driver that gets it's vendor and product id
++ from when the module is loaded. Thanks to David E. Nelson (dnelson@jump.net)
++ for the idea and sample code (from the usb scanner driver.)
++ Cleared up any licensing questions by releasing it under the GNU GPL.
++
++ version 0.1.2 (10/25/99) gkh
++ Fixed bug in detecting device.
++
++ version 0.1.1 (10/05/99) gkh
++ Changed the major number to not conflict with anything else.
++
++ version 0.1 (09/28/99) gkh
++ Can recognize the two different devices and start up a read from
++ device when asked to. Writes also work. No control signals yet, this
++ all is vendor specific data (i.e. no spec), also no control for
++ different baud rates or other bit settings.
++ Currently we are using the same devid as the acm driver. This needs
++ to change.
++
++-----------------------------------------------------------------------
++visor.c Change Log comments:
++
++ (06/03/2003) Judd Montgomery <judd at jpilot.org>
++ Added support for module parameter options for untested/unknown
++ devices.
++
++ (03/09/2003) gkh
++ Added support for the Sony Clie NZ90V device. Thanks to Martin Brachtl
++ <brachtl@redgrep.cz> for the information.
++
++ (03/05/2003) gkh
++ Think Treo support is now working.
++
++ (04/03/2002) gkh
++ Added support for the Sony OS 4.1 devices. Thanks to Hiroyuki ARAKI
++ <hiro@zob.ne.jp> for the information.
++
++ (03/27/2002) gkh
++ Removed assumptions that port->tty was always valid (is not true
++ for usb serial console devices.)
++
++ (03/23/2002) gkh
++ Added support for the Palm i705 device, thanks to Thomas Riemer
++ <tom@netmech.com> for the information.
++
++ (03/21/2002) gkh
++ Added support for the Palm m130 device, thanks to Udo Eisenbarth
++ <udo.eisenbarth@web.de> for the information.
++
++ (02/27/2002) gkh
++ Reworked the urb handling logic. We have no more pool, but dynamically
++ allocate the urb and the transfer buffer on the fly. In testing this
++ does not incure any measurable overhead. This also relies on the fact
++ that we have proper reference counting logic for urbs.
++
++ (02/21/2002) SilaS
++ Added initial support for the Palm m515 devices.
++
++ (02/14/2002) gkh
++ Added support for the Clie S-360 device.
++
++ (12/18/2001) gkh
++ Added better Clie support for 3.5 devices. Thanks to Geoffrey Levand
++ for the patch.
++
++ (11/11/2001) gkh
++ Added support for the m125 devices, and added check to prevent oopses
++ for Clié devices that lie about the number of ports they have.
++
++ (08/30/2001) gkh
++ Added support for the Clie devices, both the 3.5 and 4.0 os versions.
++ Many thanks to Daniel Burke, and Bryan Payne for helping with this.
++
++ (08/23/2001) gkh
++ fixed a few potential bugs pointed out by Oliver Neukum.
++
++ (05/30/2001) gkh
++ switched from using spinlock to a semaphore, which fixes lots of problems.
++
++ (05/28/2000) gkh
++ Added initial support for the Palm m500 and Palm m505 devices.
++
++ (04/08/2001) gb
++ Identify version on module load.
++
++ (01/21/2000) gkh
++ Added write_room and chars_in_buffer, as they were previously using the
++ generic driver versions which is all wrong now that we are using an urb
++ pool. Thanks to Wolfgang Grandegger for pointing this out to me.
++ Removed count assignment in the write function, which was not needed anymore
++ either. Thanks to Al Borchers for pointing this out.
++
++ (12/12/2000) gkh
++ Moved MOD_DEC to end of visor_close to be nicer, as the final write
++ message can sleep.
++
++ (11/12/2000) gkh
++ Fixed bug with data being dropped on the floor by forcing tty->low_latency
++ to be on. Hopefully this fixes the OHCI issue!
++
++ (11/01/2000) Adam J. Richter
++ usb_device_id table support
++
++ (10/05/2000) gkh
++ Fixed bug with urb->dev not being set properly, now that the usb
++ core needs it.
++
++ (09/11/2000) gkh
++ Got rid of always calling kmalloc for every urb we wrote out to the
++ device.
++ Added visor_read_callback so we can keep track of bytes in and out for
++ those people who like to know the speed of their device.
++ Removed DEBUG #ifdefs with call to usb_serial_debug_data
++
++ (09/06/2000) gkh
++ Fixed oops in visor_exit. Need to uncomment usb_unlink_urb call _after_
++ the host controller drivers set urb->dev = NULL when the urb is finished.
++
++ (08/28/2000) gkh
++ Added locks for SMP safeness.
++
++ (08/08/2000) gkh
++ Fixed endian problem in visor_startup.
++ Fixed MOD_INC and MOD_DEC logic and the ability to open a port more
++ than once.
++
++ (07/23/2000) gkh
++ Added pool of write urbs to speed up transfers to the visor.
++
++ (07/19/2000) gkh
++ Added module_init and module_exit functions to handle the fact that this
++ driver is a loadable module now.
++
++ (07/03/2000) gkh
++ Added visor_set_ioctl and visor_set_termios functions (they don't do much
++ of anything, but are good for debugging.)
++
++ (06/25/2000) gkh
++ Fixed bug in visor_unthrottle that should help with the disconnect in PPP
++ bug that people have been reporting.
++
++ (06/23/2000) gkh

+-
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+-usb-serial.h Change Log comments:
+-
+- (03/26/2002) gkh
+- removed the port->tty check from port_paranoia_check() due to serial
+- consoles not having a tty device assigned to them.
+-
+- (12/03/2001) gkh
+- removed active from the port structure.
+- added documentation to the usb_serial_device_type structure
+-
+- (10/10/2001) gkh
+- added vendor and product to serial structure. Needed to determine device
+- owner when the device is disconnected.
+-
+- (05/30/2001) gkh
+- added sem to port structure and removed port_lock
+-
+- (10/05/2000) gkh
+- Added interrupt_in_endpointAddress and bulk_in_endpointAddress to help
+- fix bug with urb->dev not being set properly, now that the usb core
+- needs it.
+-
+- (09/11/2000) gkh
+- Added usb_serial_debug_data function to help get rid of #DEBUG in the
+- drivers.
+-
+- (08/28/2000) gkh
+- Added port_lock to port structure.
+-
+- (08/08/2000) gkh
+- Added open_count to port structure.
+-
+- (07/23/2000) gkh

+-
+- (07/19/2000) gkh, pberger, and borchers
+- Modifications to allow usb-serial drivers to be modules.
+-
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+-usb-serial.c Change Log comments:
+-
+- (12/10/2002) gkh
+- Split the ports off into their own struct device, and added a
+- usb-serial bus driver.
+-
+- (11/19/2002) gkh
+- removed a few #ifdefs for the generic code and cleaned up the failure
+- logic in initialization.
+-
+- (10/02/2002) gkh
+- moved the console code to console.c and out of this file.
+-
+- (06/05/2002) gkh
+- moved location of startup() call in serial_probe() until after all
+- of the port information and endpoints are initialized. This makes
+- things easier for some drivers.
+-
+- (04/10/2002) gkh
+- added serial_read_proc function which creates a
+- /proc/tty/driver/usb-serial file.
+-
+- (03/27/2002) gkh
+- Got USB serial console code working properly and merged into the main
+- version of the tree. Thanks to Randy Dunlap for the initial version
+- of this code, and for pushing me to finish it up.
+- The USB serial console works with any usb serial driver device.
+-
+- (03/21/2002) gkh
+- Moved all manipulation of port->open_count into the core. Now the
+- individual driver's open and close functions are called only when the
+- first open() and last close() is called. Making the drivers a bit
+- smaller and simpler.
+- Fixed a bug if a driver didn't have the owner field set.
+-
+- (02/26/2002) gkh
+- Moved all locking into the main serial_* functions, instead of having
+- the individual drivers have to grab the port semaphore. This should
+- reduce races.
+- Reworked the MOD_INC logic a bit to always increment and decrement, even
+- if the generic driver is being used.
+-
+- (10/10/2001) gkh
+- usb_serial_disconnect() now sets the serial->dev pointer is to NULL to
+- help prevent child drivers from accessing the device since it is now
+- gone.
+-
+- (09/13/2001) gkh
+- Moved generic driver initialize after we have registered with the USB
+- core. Thanks to Randy Dunlap for pointing this problem out.
+-
+- (07/03/2001) gkh
+- Fixed module paramater size. Thanks to John Brockmeyer for the pointer.
+- Fixed vendor and product getting defined through the MODULE_PARM macro
+- if the Generic driver wasn't compiled in.
+- Fixed problem with generic_shutdown() not being called for drivers that
+- don't have a shutdown() function.
+-
+- (06/06/2001) gkh
+- added evil hack that is needed for the prolific pl2303 device due to the
+- crazy way its endpoints are set up.
+-
+- (05/30/2001) gkh
+- switched from using spinlock to a semaphore, which fixes lots of problems.
+-
+- (04/08/2001) gb
+- Identify version on module load.
+-
+- 2001_02_05 gkh
+- Fixed buffer overflows bug with the generic serial driver. Thanks to
+- Todd Squires <squirest@ct0.com> for fixing this.
+-
+- (01/10/2001) gkh
+- Fixed bug where the generic serial adaptor grabbed _any_ device that was
+- offered to it.
+-
+- (12/12/2000) gkh
+- Removed MOD_INC and MOD_DEC from poll and disconnect functions, and
+- moved them to the serial_open and serial_close functions.
+- Also fixed bug with there not being a MOD_DEC for the generic driver
+- (thanks to Gary Brubaker for finding this.)
+-
+- (11/29/2000) gkh
+- Small NULL pointer initialization cleanup which saves a bit of disk image
+-
+- (11/01/2000) Adam J. Richter
+- instead of using idVendor/idProduct pairs, usb serial drivers
+- now identify their hardware interest with usb_device_id tables,
+- which they usually have anyhow for use with MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE.
+-
+- (10/05/2000) gkh
+- Fixed bug with urb->dev not being set properly, now that the usb
+- core needs it.
+-
+- (09/11/2000) gkh
+- Removed DEBUG #ifdefs with call to usb_serial_debug_data
+-
+- (08/28/2000) gkh
+- Added port_lock to port structure.
+- Added locks for SMP safeness to generic driver
+- Fixed the ability to open a generic device's port more than once.
+-
+- (07/23/2000) gkh
+- Added bulk_out_endpointAddress to port structure.
+-
+- (07/19/2000) gkh, pberger, and borchers
+- Modifications to allow usb-serial drivers to be modules.
+-
+- (07/03/2000) gkh
+- Added more debugging to serial_ioctl call
+-
+- (06/25/2000) gkh
+- Changed generic_write_bulk_callback to not call wake_up_interruptible
+- directly, but to have port_softint do it at a safer time.
+-
+- (06/23/2000) gkh
+- Cleaned up debugging statements in a quest to find UHCI timeout bug.
+-
+- (05/22/2000) gkh
+- Changed the makefile, enabling the big CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_SOMTHING to be
+- removed from the individual device source files.
+-
+- (05/03/2000) gkh
+- Added the Digi Acceleport driver from Al Borchers and Peter Berger.
+-
+- (05/02/2000) gkh
+- Changed devfs and tty register code to work properly now. This was based on
+- the ACM driver changes by Vojtech Pavlik.
+-
+- (04/27/2000) Ryan VanderBijl
+- Put calls to *_paranoia_checks into one function.
+-
+- (04/23/2000) gkh
+- Fixed bug that Randy Dunlap found for Generic devices with no bulk out ports.
+- Moved when the startup code printed out the devices that are supported.
+-
+- (04/19/2000) gkh
+- Added driver for ZyXEL omni.net lcd plus ISDN TA
+- Made startup info message specify which drivers were compiled in.
+-
+- (04/03/2000) gkh
+- Changed the probe process to remove the module unload races.
+- Changed where the tty layer gets initialized to have devfs work nicer.
+- Added initial devfs support.
+-
+- (03/26/2000) gkh
+- Split driver up into device specific pieces.
+-
+- (03/19/2000) gkh
+- Fixed oops that could happen when device was removed while a program
+- was talking to the device.
+- Removed the static urbs and now all urbs are created and destroyed
+- dynamically.
+- Reworked the internal interface. Now everything is based on the
+- usb_serial_port structure instead of the larger usb_serial structure.
+- This fixes the bug that a multiport device could not have more than
+- one port open at one time.
+-
+- (03/17/2000) gkh
+- Added config option for debugging messages.
+- Added patch for keyspan pda from Brian Warner.
+-
+- (03/06/2000) gkh
+- Added the keyspan pda code from Brian Warner <warner@lothar.com>
+- Moved a bunch of the port specific stuff into its own structure. This
+- is in anticipation of the true multiport devices (there's a bug if you
+- try to access more than one port of any multiport device right now)
+-
+- (02/21/2000) gkh
+- Made it so that any serial devices only have to specify which functions
+- they want to overload from the generic function calls (great,
+- inheritance in C, in a driver, just what I wanted...)
+- Added support for set_termios and ioctl function calls. No drivers take
+- advantage of this yet.
+- Removed the #ifdef MODULE, now there is no module specific code.
+- Cleaned up a few comments in usb-serial.h that were wrong (thanks again
+- to Miles Lott).
+- Small fix to get_free_serial.
+-
+- (02/14/2000) gkh
+- Removed the Belkin and Peracom functionality from the driver due to
+- the lack of support from the vendor, and me not wanting people to
+- accidenatly buy the device, expecting it to work with Linux.
+- Added read_bulk_callback and write_bulk_callback to the type structure
+- for the needs of the FTDI and WhiteHEAT driver.
+- Changed all reverences to FTDI to FTDI_SIO at the request of Bill
+- Ryder.
+- Changed the output urb size back to the max endpoint size to make
+- the ftdi_sio driver have it easier, and due to the fact that it didn't
+- really increase the speed any.
+-
+- (02/11/2000) gkh
+- Added VISOR_FUNCTION_CONSOLE to the visor startup function. This was a
+- patch from Miles Lott (milos@insync.net).
+- Fixed bug with not restoring the minor range that a device grabs, if
+- the startup function fails (thanks Miles for finding this).
+-
+- (02/05/2000) gkh
+- Added initial framework for the Keyspan PDA serial converter so that
+- Brian Warner has a place to put his code.
+- Made the ezusb specific functions generic enough that different
+- devices can use them (whiteheat and keyspan_pda both need them).
+- Split out a whole bunch of structure and other stuff to a separate
+- usb-serial.h file.
+- Made the Visor connection messages a little more understandable, now
+- that Miles Lott (milos@insync.net) has gotten the Generic channel to
+- work. Also made them always show up in the log file.
+-
+- (01/25/2000) gkh
+- Added initial framework for FTDI serial converter so that Bill Ryder
+- has a place to put his code.
+- Added the vendor specific info from Handspring. Now we can print out
+- informational debug messages as well as understand what is happening.
+-
+- (01/23/2000) gkh
+- Fixed problem of crash when trying to open a port that didn't have a
+- device assigned to it. Made the minor node finding a little smarter,
+- now it looks to find a continuous space for the new device.
+-
+- (01/21/2000) gkh
+- Fixed bug in visor_startup with patch from Miles Lott (milos@insync.net)
+- Fixed get_serial_by_minor which was all messed up for multi port
+- devices. Fixed multi port problem for generic devices. Now the number
+- of ports is determined by the number of bulk out endpoints for the
+- generic device.
+-
+- (01/19/2000) gkh
+- Removed lots of cruft that was around from the old (pre urb) driver
+- interface.
+- Made the serial_table dynamic. This should save lots of memory when
+- the number of minor nodes goes up to 256.
+- Added initial support for devices that have more than one port.
+- Added more debugging comments for the Visor, and added a needed
+- set_configuration call.
+-
+- (01/17/2000) gkh
+- Fixed the WhiteHEAT firmware (my processing tool had a bug)
+- and added new debug loader firmware for it.
+- Removed the put_char function as it isn't really needed.
+- Added visor startup commands as found by the Win98 dump.
+-
+- (01/13/2000) gkh
+- Fixed the vendor id for the generic driver to the one I meant it to be.
+-
+- (01/12/2000) gkh
+- Forget the version numbering...that's pretty useless...
+- Made the driver able to be compiled so that the user can select which
+- converter they want to use. This allows people who only want the Visor
+- support to not pay the memory size price of the WhiteHEAT.
+- Fixed bug where the generic driver (idVendor=0000 and idProduct=0000)
+- grabbed the root hub. Not good.
+-
+- version 0.4.0 (01/10/2000) gkh
+- Added whiteheat.h containing the firmware for the ConnectTech WhiteHEAT
+- device. Added startup function to allow firmware to be downloaded to
+- a device if it needs to be.
+- Added firmware download logic to the WhiteHEAT device.
+- Started to add #defines to split up the different drivers for potential
+- configuration option.
+-
+- version 0.3.1 (12/30/99) gkh
+- Fixed problems with urb for bulk out.
+- Added initial support for multiple sets of endpoints. This enables
+- the Handspring Visor to be attached successfully. Only the first
+- bulk in / bulk out endpoint pair is being used right now.
+-
+- version 0.3.0 (12/27/99) gkh
+- Added initial support for the Handspring Visor based on a patch from
+- Miles Lott (milos@sneety.insync.net)
+- Cleaned up the code a bunch and converted over to using urbs only.
+-
+- version 0.2.3 (12/21/99) gkh
+- Added initial support for the Connect Tech WhiteHEAT converter.
+- Incremented the number of ports in expectation of getting the
+- WhiteHEAT to work properly (4 ports per connection).
+- Added notification on insertion and removal of what port the
+- device is/was connected to (and what kind of device it was).
+-
+- version 0.2.2 (12/16/99) gkh
+- Changed major number to the new allocated number. We're legal now!
+-
+- version 0.2.1 (12/14/99) gkh
+- Fixed bug that happens when device node is opened when there isn't a
+- device attached to it. Thanks to marek@webdesign.no for noticing this.
+-
+- version 0.2.0 (11/10/99) gkh
+- Split up internals to make it easier to add different types of serial
+- converters to the code.
+- Added a "generic" driver that gets it's vendor and product id
+- from when the module is loaded. Thanks to David E. Nelson (dnelson@jump.net)
+- for the idea and sample code (from the usb scanner driver.)
+- Cleared up any licensing questions by releasing it under the GNU GPL.
+-
+- version 0.1.2 (10/25/99) gkh
+- Fixed bug in detecting device.
+-
+- version 0.1.1 (10/05/99) gkh
+- Changed the major number to not conflict with anything else.
+-
+- version 0.1 (09/28/99) gkh
+- Can recognize the two different devices and start up a read from
+- device when asked to. Writes also work. No control signals yet, this
+- all is vendor specific data (i.e. no spec), also no control for
+- different baud rates or other bit settings.
+- Currently we are using the same devid as the acm driver. This needs
+- to change.

+- for usb serial console devices.)
+-
+- (03/23/2002) gkh
+- Added support for the Palm i705 device, thanks to Thomas Riemer
+- <tom@netmech.com> for the information.

+- (02/27/2002) gkh
+- Reworked the urb handling logic. We have no more pool, but dynamically
+- allocate the urb and the transfer buffer on the fly. In testing this
+- does not incure any measurable overhead. This also relies on the fact
+- that we have proper reference counting logic for urbs.
+-
+- (02/21/2002) SilaS
+- Added initial support for the Palm m515 devices.
+-
+- (02/14/2002) gkh

+- Added support for the Clie devices, both the 3.5 and 4.0 os versions.
+- Many thanks to Daniel Burke, and Bryan Payne for helping with this.

+- Added initial support for the Palm m500 and Palm m505 devices.
+-
+- (04/08/2001) gb
+- Identify version on module load.
+-
+- (01/21/2000) gkh
+- Added write_room and chars_in_buffer, as they were previously using the
+- generic driver versions which is all wrong now that we are using an urb
+- pool. Thanks to Wolfgang Grandegger for pointing this out to me.
+- Removed count assignment in the write function, which was not needed anymore
+- either. Thanks to Al Borchers for pointing this out.
+-
+- (12/12/2000) gkh
+- Moved MOD_DEC to end of visor_close to be nicer, as the final write
+- message can sleep.
+-
+- (11/12/2000) gkh
+- Fixed bug with data being dropped on the floor by forcing tty->low_latency
+- to be on. Hopefully this fixes the OHCI issue!

+- (11/01/2000) Adam J. Richter
+- usb_device_id table support
+-
+- (10/05/2000) gkh
+- Fixed bug with urb->dev not being set properly, now that the usb

+- those people who like to know the speed of their device.
+- Removed DEBUG #ifdefs with call to usb_serial_debug_data
+-

+- Fixed oops in visor_exit. Need to uncomment usb_unlink_urb call _after_
+- the host controller drivers set urb->dev = NULL when the urb is finished.
+-
+- (08/28/2000) gkh
+- Added locks for SMP safeness.
+-
+- (08/08/2000) gkh
+- Fixed endian problem in visor_startup.
+- Fixed MOD_INC and MOD_DEC logic and the ability to open a port more
+- than once.
+-
+- (07/23/2000) gkh
+- Added pool of write urbs to speed up transfers to the visor.
+-
+- (07/19/2000) gkh
+- Added module_init and module_exit functions to handle the fact that this
+- driver is a loadable module now.
+-
+- (07/03/2000) gkh
+- Added visor_set_ioctl and visor_set_termios functions (they don't do much
+- of anything, but are good for debugging.)
+-
+- (06/25/2000) gkh
+- Fixed bug in visor_unthrottle that should help with the disconnect in PPP
+- bug that people have been reporting.
+-
+- (06/23/2000) gkh

+-
+- (04/27/2000) Ryan VanderBijl
+- Fixed memory leak in visor_close
