sony535-0.6: [08/17/94]
===================================
- updated to compile with Linux 1.1.45.
- split into two parts: a mini patch which I hope to get into the
main kernel release, and the specific driver files.
sony535-0.5: [03/15/94] 5th Release
===================================
- Fixed patches to linux/config.in and linux/include/linux/majors.h
to be clean under Linux 1.0.
sony535-0.4: [12/13/93] 4th Release
==================================
- maintenance taken over by Ken Pizzini (ken@halcyon.com)
- Major device number changed again -- major device 21 was usurped
in 0.99p14 for SCSI_GENERIC_MAJOR (sigh). New major device number
is 24. I'm taking measures to ensure that this doesn't need to
change again.
- confirmed to work with 0.99p14 kernel; due to reorganizations
in the directory tree in 0.99p14 these patches can not be
automatically applied to older kernels, although the adventurous
can probably do so by hand.
sony535-0.3: [8/29/93] 3rd Release
==================================
- confirmed to work with 0.99p13 kernel
- updated the patches to work on the 0.99p12 kernel
- removed the configuration option for the interface board address
since it was not easily supported. The constant has to be modified
in the source code now.
sony535-0.2: [6/23/93] 2nd Release
==================================
- changed device major number from 15 to 21 and changed the external
routine names so that the CDU-31A and CDU-535 drivers can co-exist.
- patches relative to 0.99p10 kernel. Required modification of a few
system calls in sonycd535.c
- Changed the (retry_count != jiffies) to (retry_count > jiffies)
since former was causing lock-ups on some systems. This was also
done in the CDU-31A driver.
