The noise reduction technique used in corgi_ts.c, + that's to wait till vsync before ADC sampling, is also integrated into + ads7846 driver now. Provided that the original driver is not generic + and is difficult to maintain, it will be removed later. +Who: Eric Miao + +---------------------------- + +What: capifs +When: February 2011 +Files: drivers/isdn/capi/capifs.* +Why: udev fully replaces this special file system that only contains CAPI + NCCI TTY device nodes. User space (pppdcapiplugin) works without + noticing the difference. +Who: Jan Kiszka ++ ++---------------------------- ++ + What: KVM memory aliases support + When: July 2010 + Why: Memory aliasing support is used for speeding up guest vga access + through the vga windows. + + Modern userspace no longer uses this feature, so it's just bitrotted + code and can be removed with no impact. + Who: Avi Kivity + + ---------------------------- + + What: KVM kernel-allocated memory slots + When: July 2010 + Why: Since 2.6.25, kvm supports user-allocated memory slots, which are + much more flexible than kernel-allocated slots. All current userspace + supports the newer interface and this code can be removed with no + impact. + Who: Avi Kivity + + ---------------------------- + + What: KVM paravirt mmu host support + When: January 2011 + Why: The paravirt mmu host support is slower than non-paravirt mmu, both + on newer and older hardware. It is already not exposed to the guest, + and kept only for live migration purposes. + Who: Avi Kivity ++ ++----------------------------
