This lets us remove a lot of code in the drivers that were all checking
the same thing. It also found some bugs in a few of the drivers, which
has been fixed up.

29 July 2005, Cambridge, MA:
This afternoon Alan Stern submitted a patch to remove the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK
flag from the Linux kernel. Mr. Stern explained, "This flag is a relic
from an earlier, less-well-designed system. For over a year it hasn't
been used for anything other than printing warning messages."
An anonymous spokesman for the Linux kernel development community
commented, "This is exactly the sort of thing we see happening all the
time. As the kernel evolves, support for old techniques and old code can
be jettisoned and replaced by newer, better approaches. Proprietary
operating systems do not have the freedom or flexibility to change so
quickly."
Mr. Stern, a staff member at Harvard University's Rowland Institute who
works on Linux only as a hobby, noted that the patch (labelled as548) did
not update two files, keyspan.c and option.c, in the USB drivers' "serial"
subdirectory. "Those files need more extensive changes," he remarked.
"They examine the status field of several URBs at times when they're not
supposed to. That will need to be fixed before the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK flag
is removed."
Greg Kroah-Hartman, the kernel maintainer responsible for overseeing all
of Linux's USB drivers, did not respond to our inquiries or return our
calls. His only comment was "Applied, thanks."

We map states 0x00 and 0x10 to the ATM_PHY_SIG_LOST flag. The current logic fails to
resync the line if we get state 0x10 followed by 0x00, since we only resync the line
when the state is 0x00 and the flag changed. Doubly fixed by (1) always resyncing the
line when the state is 0x00 even if the state didn't change, and (2) keeping track of
the last state, not just the flag. We do (2) as well as (1) in order to get better log
messages.
This is a tweaked version of the original patch by Aurelio Arroyo.

you seem to have applied the original, not the new improved one with
whiter teeth that uses kcalloc instead of kmalloc + memset. Here's a
patch that goes on top of the one you applied.

Zero the entire instance, not just the struct usbatm_data head.

Reduce the number of "unknown vpi/vci" debug messages to (usually) at most
one per-urb, rather than one per-cell. This is only an issue when (a) many
packets come in but no connection is open; and (b) CONFIG_USB_DEBUG is set.

The user needs to take care of modem initialization, and load the
module with parameters giving the endpoints to use and so forth.

Port the speedtch driver to the new usbatm core. The code is much
the same as before, just reorganized, though I threw in some minor
improvements (a new module parameter for choosing the altsetting,
more robust urb failure handling, ...) while I was there.

Rework the core usbatm code: minidrivers (i.e. drivers for particular
modems) now register themselves with the usbatm core, supplying methods
for binding/unbinding etc. The design was inspired by usb-serial and
usbnet. At the same time, more common code from the speedtch and
cxacru (patch 3/5) drivers was generalized and moved into the core. The
transmission and reception parts have been unified and simplified. Since
this is a major change and I don't like underscores in file names,
usb_atm.[ch] has been renamed usbatm.[ch].
Many thanks to Roman Kagan, who did a lot of the coding.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
