2015-05-07Documentation usb serial: fixed how to provide vendor and product idH. Nikolaus Schaller1-5/+7
While trying to test a Cinterion GSM/GPS/3G module I had reconfigured the USB interface by mistake and therefore needed to run a different USB driver than CDC-ACM. It turned out that I need the "usbserial" driver. This file is an official description how to use it: Documentation/usb/usb-serial.txt But it is outdated. The parameters vendor= and product= have been superseded by a /sys interface. Here was the solution: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=175499 insmod usbserial vendor=0x#### product=0x#### becomes (first #### is vendor, second is product) modprobe usbserial echo #### #### >/sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/generic/new_id This patch changes the documentation file to describe the modern variant. Please note that the old one still works (if compiled as module). Signed-off-by: H.

2010-08-04Documentation: update broken web addresses.Justin P. Mattock1-2/+2
Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/* Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult, the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated. Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users. Signed-off-by: Justin P.

2010-05-20USB: usbserial: mos7720: add support for parallel port on moschip 7715Mike Dunn1-0/+16
Add support for the parallel port on the moschip MCS7715 device. The port registers itself with the parport subsystem as a low-level driver. A separate entry to the kernel configuration is added beneath that for the mos7720, to avoid the need to link with the parport subsystem code for users who don't have or don't want the parallel port. Only compatibility mode is currently supported (no ECP/EPP). Tested with both moschip devices (7720 and 7715) on UP and SMP hosts, including regression testing of serial port, concurrent operation of serial and parallel ports, and various connect / disconnect scenarios.

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!
