This file details changes in 2.6 which affect PCMCIA card driver authors:
+* New release helper (as of 2.6.17)
+ Instead of calling pcmcia_release_{configuration,io,irq,win}, all that's
+ necessary now is calling pcmcia_disable_device. As there is no valid
+ reason left to call pcmcia_release_io and pcmcia_release_irq, the
+ exports for them were removed.
+
+* Unify detach and REMOVAL event code, as well as attach and INSERTION
+ code (as of 2.6.16)
+ void (*remove) (struct pcmcia_device *dev);
+ int (*probe) (struct pcmcia_device *dev);
+
+* Move suspend, resume and reset out of event handler (as of 2.6.16)
+ int (*suspend) (struct pcmcia_device *dev);
+ int (*resume) (struct pcmcia_device *dev);
+ should be initialized in struct pcmcia_driver, and handle
+ (SUSPEND == RESET_PHYSICAL) and (RESUME == CARD_RESET) events
+
* event handler initialization in struct pcmcia_driver (as of 2.6.13)
The event handler is notified of all events, and must be initialized
as the event() callback in the driver's struct pcmcia_driver.
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".
+
+* CardServices is gone
+ CardServices() in 2.4 is just a big switch statement to call various
+ services. In 2.6, all of those entry points are exported and called
+ directly (except for pcmcia_report_error(), just use cs_error() instead).
+
+* struct pcmcia_driver
+ You need to use struct pcmcia_driver and pcmcia_{un,}register_driver
+ instead of {un,}register_pccard_driver
