X-Git-Tag: v2.6.16-rc1~474^2~22^2~8^2~64 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5433383ef33ed40c9c8a86a4355da344234af2a5;p=pandora-kernel.git [SCSI] qla2xxx: Add full firmware(-request) hotplug support for all ISPs. Transition driver to exclusively use the request_firmware() interfaces to retrieve firmware-blobs from user-space. This will be the default behaviour going forward until the embedded firmware-binary images are removed from the upstream kernel. Upon request, the driver caches the firmware image until the driver is unloaded. NOTE: The option is present to allow the user to continue to use the firmware-loader modules, but, should be considered deprecated.
