2023-03-09char: pcmcia: remove all the driversJiri Slaby
These char PCMCIA drivers are buggy[1] and receive only minimal care. It was concluded[2], that we should try to remove most pcmcia drivers completely. Let's start with these char broken one. Note that I also removed a UAPI header: include/uapi/linux/cm4000_cs.h. I found only coccinelle tests mentioning some ioctl constants from that file. But they are not actually used. Anyway, should someone complain, we may reintroduce the header (or its parts).

The gdth driver refers to a SCSI parallel, PCI-only HBA RAID adapter which was manufactured by the now-defunct ICP Vortex company, later acquired by Adaptec and superseded by the aacraid series of controllers. The driver itself would require a major overhaul before any modifications can be attempted, but seeing that it's unlikely to have any users left it should rather be removed completely.

2020-11-07net: x25_asy: Delete the x25_asy driverXie He
This driver transports LAPB (X.25 link layer) frames over TTY links. I can safely say that this driver has no actual user because it was not working at all until: commit 8fdcabeac398 ("drivers/net/wan/x25_asy: Fix to make it work") The code in its current state still has problems: 1. The uses of "struct x25_asy" in x25_asy_unesc (when receiving) and in x25_asy_write_wakeup (when sending) are not protected by locks against x25_asy_change_mtu's changing of the transmitting/receiving buffers. Also, all "netif_running" checks in this driver are not protected by locks against the ndo_stop function. 2. The driver stops all TTY read/write when the netif is down. I think this is not right because this may cause the last outgoing frame before the netif goes down to be incompletely transmitted, and the first incoming frame after the netif goes up to be incompletely received. And there may also be other problems. I was planning to fix these problems but after recent discussions about deleting other old networking code, I think we may just delete this driver, too.

2018-11-20doc:it_IT: add some process/* translationsFederico Vaga
This patch does not translate entirely the subfolder "process/" but only part of it (to begin with). In order to avoid broken links, I included empty documents for those which are not yet translated. In order to be able to refer to all documents in "process/", I added a sphinx label to those which had not one. Translated documents: - howto - 1.Intro - clang-format - coding-style - kernel-driver-statement - magic-number - volatile-considered-harmful - development-process Signed-off-by: Federico Vaga <federico.vaga@vaga.pv.it> Signed-off-by: Alessia Mantegazza <amantegazza@vaga.pv.it> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
