PCMCIAutils replaces pcmcia-cs (see below). It properly sets up
PCMCIA sockets at system startup and loads the appropriate modules

Block io priorities
===================


Intro
-----

With the introduction of cfq v3 (aka cfq-ts or time sliced cfq), basic io
priorities is supported for reads on files. This enables users to io nice
processes or process groups, similar to what has been possible to cpu
scheduling for ages. This document mainly details the current possibilites
with cfq, other io schedulers do not support io priorities so far.

Scheduling classes
------------------

CFQ implements three generic scheduling classes that determine how io is
served for a process.

IOPRIO_CLASS_RT: This is the realtime io class. This scheduling class is given
higher priority than any other in the system, processes from this class are
given first access to the disk every time. Thus it needs to be used with some
care, one io RT process can starve the entire system. Within the RT class,
there are 8 levels of class data that determine exactly how much time this
process needs the disk for on each service. In the future this might change
to be more directly mappable to performance, by passing in a wanted data
rate instead.

IOPRIO_CLASS_BE: This is the best-effort scheduling class, which is the default
for any process that hasn't set a specific io priority. The class data
determines how much io bandwidth the process will get, it's directly mappable
to the cpu nice levels just more coarsely implemented. 0 is the highest
BE prio level, 7 is the lowest. The mapping between cpu nice level and io
nice level is determined as: io_nice = (cpu_nice + 20) / 5.

IOPRIO_CLASS_IDLE: This is the idle scheduling class, processes running at this
level only get io time when no one else needs the disk. The idle class has no
class data, since it doesn't really apply here.

Tools
-----

See below for a sample ionice tool. Usage:

# ionice -c<class> -n<level> -p<pid>

If pid isn't given, the current process is assumed. IO priority settings
are inherited on fork, so you can use ionice to start the process at a given
level:

# ionice -c2 -n0 /bin/ls

will run ls at the best-effort scheduling class at the highest priority.
For a running process, you can give the pid instead:

# ionice -c1 -n2 -p100

will change pid 100 to run at the realtime scheduling class, at priority 2.

Matching of PCMCIA devices to drivers is done using one or more of the
following criteria:

- manufactor ID
- card ID
- product ID strings _and_ hashes of these strings
- function ID
- device function (actual and pseudo)

You should use the helpers in include/pcmcia/device_id.h for generating the
struct pcmcia_device_id[] entries which match devices to drivers.

If you want to match product ID strings, you also need to pass the crc32
hashes of the string to the macro, e.g. if you want to match the product ID
string 1, you need to use

PCMCIA_DEVICE_PROD_ID1("some_string", 0x(hash_of_some_string)),

If the hash is incorrect, the kernel will inform you about this in "dmesg"
upon module initialization, and tell you of the correct hash.

You can determine the hash of the product ID strings by running
"pcmcia-modalias %n.%m" [%n being replaced with the socket number and %m being
replaced with the device function] from pcmciautils. It generates a string
in the following form:
pcmcia:m0149cC1ABf06pfn00fn00pa725B842DpbF1EFEE84pc0877B627pd00000000

The hex value after "pa" is the hash of product ID string 1, after "pb" for
string 2 and so on.

Alternatively, you can use this small tool to determine the crc32 hash.
simply pass the string you want to evaluate as argument to this program,
e.g.
$ ./crc32hash "Dual Speed"

This file details changes in 2.6 which affect PCMCIA card driver authors:

* in-kernel device<->driver matching
PCMCIA devices and their correct drivers can now be matched in
kernelspace. See 'devicetable.txt' for details.

* Device model integration (as of 2.6.11)
A struct pcmcia_device is registered with the device model core,
and can be used (e.g. for SET_NETDEV_DEV) by using
handle_to_dev(client_handle_t * handle).

* Convert internal I/O port addresses to unsigned long (as of 2.6.11)
ioaddr_t should be replaced by kio_addr_t in PCMCIA card drivers.

* irq_mask and irq_list parameters (as of 2.6.11)
The irq_mask and irq_list parameters should no longer be used in
PCMCIA card drivers. Instead, it is the job of the PCMCIA core to
determine which IRQ should be used. Therefore, link->irq.IRQInfo2
is ignored.

* client->PendingEvents is gone (as of 2.6.11)
client->PendingEvents is no longer available.

* client->Attributes are gone (as of 2.6.11)
client->Attributes is unused, therefore it is removed from all
PCMCIA card drivers

* core functions no longer available (as of 2.6.11)
The following functions have been removed from the kernel source
because they are unused by all in-kernel drivers, and no external
driver was reported to rely on them:
pcmcia_get_first_region()
pcmcia_get_next_region()
pcmcia_modify_window()
pcmcia_set_event_mask()
pcmcia_get_first_window()
pcmcia_get_next_window()

* device list iteration upon module removal (as of 2.6.10)
It is no longer necessary to iterate on the driver's internal
client list and call the ->detach() function upon module removal.

* Resource management. (as of 2.6.8)
Although the PCMCIA subsystem will allocate resources for cards,
it no longer marks these resources busy. This means that driver
authors are now responsible for claiming your resources as per
other drivers in Linux. You should use request_region() to mark
your IO regions in-use, and request_mem_region() to mark your
memory regions in-use. The name argument should be a pointer to
your driver name. Eg, for pcnet_cs, name should point to the
string "pcnet_cs".
