pcmcia: add new CIS access helpers
As a replacement to pcmcia_get_{first,next}_tuple() and
pcmcia_get_tuple_data(), three new -- and easier to use --
functions are added:
- pcmcia_get_tuple() to get the very first CIS entry of one
type.
- pcmcia_loop_tuple() to loop over all CIS entries of one type.
- pcmcia_get_mac_from_cis() to read out the hardware MAC address
from CISTPL_FUNCE.
Only a handful of drivers need these functions anyway, as most
CIS access is already handled by pcmcia_loop_config(), which
now shares the same backed (pccard_loop_tuple()) with
pcmcia_loop_tuple().
A pcmcia_get_mac_from_cis() bug noted by Komuro
<[email protected]> has been fixed in this revision.

This file details changes in 2.6 which affect PCMCIA card driver authors:
|
||||
|
||||
* New CIS tuple access (as of 2.6.33)
|
||||
Instead of pcmcia_get_{first,next}_tuple(), pcmcia_get_tuple_data() and
|
||||
pcmcia_parse_tuple(), a driver shall use "pcmcia_get_tuple()" if it is
|
||||
only interested in one (raw) tuple, or "pcmcia_loop_tuple()" if it is
|
||||
interested in all tuples of one type. To decode the MAC from CISTPL_FUNCE,
|
||||
a new helper "pcmcia_get_mac_from_cis()" was added.
|
||||
|
||||
* New configuration loop helper (as of 2.6.28)
|
||||
By calling pcmcia_loop_config(), a driver can iterate over all available
|
||||
configuration options. During a driver's probe() phase, one doesn't need
