The following is a list of files and features that are going to be
|
|
removed in the kernel source tree. Every entry should contain what
|
|
exactly is going away, why it is happening, and who is going to be doing
|
|
the work. When the feature is removed from the kernel, it should also
|
|
be removed from this file.
|

|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: PRISM54
|
|
When: 2.6.34
|
|
|
|
Why: prism54 FullMAC PCI / Cardbus devices used to be supported only by the
|
|
prism54 wireless driver. After Intersil stopped selling these
|
|
devices in preference for the newer more flexible SoftMAC devices
|
|
a SoftMAC device driver was required and prism54 did not support
|
|
them. The p54pci driver now exists and has been present in the kernel for
|
|
a while. This driver supports both SoftMAC devices and FullMAC devices.
|
|
The main difference between these devices was the amount of memory which
|
|
could be used for the firmware. The SoftMAC devices support a smaller
|
|
amount of memory. Because of this the SoftMAC firmware fits into FullMAC
|
|
devices's memory. p54pci supports not only PCI / Cardbus but also USB
|
|
and SPI. Since p54pci supports all devices prism54 supports
|
|
you will have a conflict. I'm not quite sure how distributions are
|
|
handling this conflict right now. prism54 was kept around due to
|
|
claims users may experience issues when using the SoftMAC driver.
|
|
Time has passed users have not reported issues. If you use prism54
|
|
and for whatever reason you cannot use p54pci please let us know!

|
|
What: IRQF_SAMPLE_RANDOM
|
|
Check: IRQF_SAMPLE_RANDOM
|
|
When: July 2009
|
|
|
|
Why: Many of IRQF_SAMPLE_RANDOM users are technically bogus as entropy
|
|
sources in the kernel's current entropy model. To resolve this, every
|
|
input point to the kernel's entropy pool needs to better document the
|
|
type of entropy source it actually is. This will be replaced with
|
|
additional add_*_randomness functions in drivers/char/random.c

---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: Deprecated snapshot ioctls
|
|
When: 2.6.36
|
|
|
|
Why: The ioctls in kernel/power/user.c were marked as deprecated long time
|
|
ago. Now they notify users about that so that they need to replace
|
|
their userspace. After some more time, remove them completely.
|

Who: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@gmail.com>

---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: The ieee80211_regdom module parameter
|
|
When: March 2010 / desktop catchup
|
|
|
|
Why: This was inherited by the CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY code,
|
|
and currently serves as an option for users to define an
|
|
ISO / IEC 3166 alpha2 code for the country they are currently
|
|
present in. Although there are userspace API replacements for this
|
|
through nl80211 distributions haven't yet caught up with implementing
|
|
decent alternatives through standard GUIs. Although available as an
|
|
option through iw or wpa_supplicant its just a matter of time before
|
|
distributions pick up good GUI options for this. The ideal solution
|
|
would actually consist of intelligent designs which would do this for
|
|
the user automatically even when travelling through different countries.
|
|
Until then we leave this module parameter as a compromise.
|
|
|
|
When userspace improves with reasonable widely-available alternatives for
|
|
this we will no longer need this module parameter. This entry hopes that
|
|
by the super-futuristically looking date of "March 2010" we will have
|
|
such replacements widely available.

|
|
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: dev->power.power_state
|
|
When: July 2007
|
|
Why: Broken design for runtime control over driver power states, confusing
|
|
driver-internal runtime power management with: mechanisms to support
|
|
system-wide sleep state transitions; event codes that distinguish
|
|
different phases of swsusp "sleep" transitions; and userspace policy
|
|
inputs. This framework was never widely used, and most attempts to
|
|
use it were broken. Drivers should instead be exposing domain-specific
|
|
interfaces either to kernel or to userspace.

|
|
|
|
What: Video4Linux API 1 ioctls and from Video devices.
|
|
When: July 2009
|
|
Files: include/linux/videodev.h
|
|
Check: include/linux/videodev.h
|
|
Why: V4L1 AP1 was replaced by V4L2 API during migration from 2.4 to 2.6
|
|
series. The old API have lots of drawbacks and don't provide enough
|
|
means to work with all video and audio standards. The newer API is
|
|
already available on the main drivers and should be used instead.
|
|
Newer drivers should use v4l_compat_translate_ioctl function to handle
|
|
old calls, replacing to newer ones.
|
|
Decoder iocts are using internally to allow video drivers to
|
|
communicate with video decoders. This should also be improved to allow
|
|
V4L2 calls being translated into compatible internal ioctls.
|
|
Compatibility ioctls will be provided, for a while, via
|
|
v4l1-compat module.

---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: sys_sysctl
|
|
When: September 2010
|
|
Option: CONFIG_SYSCTL_SYSCALL
|
|
Why: The same information is available in a more convenient from
|
|
/proc/sys, and none of the sysctl variables appear to be
|
|
important performance wise.
|
|
|
|
Binary sysctls are a long standing source of subtle kernel
|
|
bugs and security issues.
|
|
|
|
When I looked several months ago all I could find after
|
|
searching several distributions were 5 user space programs and
|
|
glibc (which falls back to /proc/sys) using this syscall.
|
|
|
|
The man page for sysctl(2) documents it as unusable for user
|
|
space programs.
|
|
|
|
sysctl(2) is not generally ABI compatible to a 32bit user
|
|
space application on a 64bit and a 32bit kernel.
|
|
|
|
For the last several months the policy has been no new binary
|
|
sysctls and no one has put forward an argument to use them.
|
|
|
|
Binary sysctls issues seem to keep happening appearing so
|
|
properly deprecating them (with a warning to user space) and a
|
|
2 year grace warning period will mean eventually we can kill
|
|
them and end the pain.
|
|
|
|
In the mean time individual binary sysctls can be dealt with
|
|
in a piecewise fashion.

|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: remove EXPORT_SYMBOL(kernel_thread)
|
|
When: August 2006
|
|
Files: arch/*/kernel/*_ksyms.c
|
|
Check: kernel_thread
|
|
Why: kernel_thread is a low-level implementation detail. Drivers should
|
|
use the <linux/kthread.h> API instead which shields them from
|
|
implementation details and provides a higherlevel interface that
|
|
prevents bugs and code duplication
|
|
Who: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
|
|
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: Unused EXPORT_SYMBOL/EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL exports
|
|
(temporary transition config option provided until then)
|
|
The transition config option will also be removed at the same time.
|
|
When: before 2.6.19
|
|
Why: Unused symbols are both increasing the size of the kernel binary
|
|
and are often a sign of "wrong API"
|
|
Who: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com>
|
|
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: PHYSDEVPATH, PHYSDEVBUS, PHYSDEVDRIVER in the uevent environment
|
|
When: October 2008
|
|
Why: The stacking of class devices makes these values misleading and
|
|
inconsistent.
|
|
Class devices should not carry any of these properties, and bus
|
|
devices have SUBSYTEM and DRIVER as a replacement.
|
|
Who: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@suse.de>
|
|
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: ACPI procfs interface
|
|
When: July 2008
|
|
Why: ACPI sysfs conversion should be finished by January 2008.
|
|
ACPI procfs interface will be removed in July 2008 so that
|
|
there is enough time for the user space to catch up.
|

Who: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com>
|

|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: /proc/acpi/button
|
|
When: August 2007
|
|
Why: /proc/acpi/button has been replaced by events to the input layer
|
|
since 2.6.20.
|
|
Who: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
|
|
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: /proc/acpi/event
|
|
When: February 2008
|
|
Why: /proc/acpi/event has been replaced by events via the input layer
|
|
and netlink since 2.6.23.
|
|
Who: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
|

|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: i386/x86_64 bzImage symlinks
|
|
When: April 2010
|
|
|
|
Why: The i386/x86_64 merge provides a symlink to the old bzImage
|
|
location so not yet updated user space tools, e.g. package
|
|
scripts, do not break.
|
|
Who: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
|
|
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: GPIO autorequest on gpio_direction_{input,output}() in gpiolib
|
|
When: February 2010
|
|
Why: All callers should use explicit gpio_request()/gpio_free().
|
|
The autorequest mechanism in gpiolib was provided mostly as a
|
|
migration aid for legacy GPIO interfaces (for SOC based GPIOs).
|
|
Those users have now largely migrated. Platforms implementing
|
|
the GPIO interfaces without using gpiolib will see no changes.
|
|
Who: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: b43 support for firmware revision < 410
|
|
When: The schedule was July 2008, but it was decided that we are going to keep the
|
|
code as long as there are no major maintanance headaches.
|
|
So it _could_ be removed _any_ time now, if it conflicts with something new.
|
|
Why: The support code for the old firmware hurts code readability/maintainability
|
|
and slightly hurts runtime performance. Bugfixes for the old firmware
|
|
are not provided by Broadcom anymore.
|
|
Who: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de>
|
|
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: /sys/o2cb symlink
|
|
When: January 2010
|
|
Why: /sys/fs/o2cb is the proper location for this information - /sys/o2cb
|
|
exists as a symlink for backwards compatibility for old versions of
|
|
ocfs2-tools. 2 years should be sufficient time to phase in new versions
|
|
which know to look in /sys/fs/o2cb.
|
|
Who: ocfs2-devel@oss.oracle.com
|
|
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: Ability for non root users to shm_get hugetlb pages based on mlock
|
|
resource limits
|
|
When: 2.6.31
|
|
Why: Non root users need to be part of /proc/sys/vm/hugetlb_shm_group or
|
|
have CAP_IPC_LOCK to be able to allocate shm segments backed by
|
|
huge pages. The mlock based rlimit check to allow shm hugetlb is
|
|
inconsistent with mmap based allocations. Hence it is being
|
|
deprecated.
|
|
Who: Ravikiran Thirumalai <kiran@scalex86.org>
|
|
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON
|
|
When: January 2009
|
|
Why: This option was introduced just to allow older lm-sensors userspace
|
|
to keep working over the upgrade to 2.6.26. At the scheduled time of
|
|
removal fixed lm-sensors (2.x or 3.x) should be readily available.
|
|
Who: Rene Herman <rene.herman@gmail.com>
|
|
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: Code that is now under CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT_SYSFS
|
|
(in net/core/net-sysfs.c)
|
|
When: After the only user (hal) has seen a release with the patches
|
|
for enough time, probably some time in 2010.
|
|
Why: Over 1K .text/.data size reduction, data is available in other
|
|
ways (ioctls)
|
|
Who: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net>
|
|
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: sysfs ui for changing p4-clockmod parameters
|
|
When: September 2009
|
|
Why: See commits 129f8ae9b1b5be94517da76009ea956e89104ce8 and
|
|
e088e4c9cdb618675874becb91b2fd581ee707e6.
|
|
Removal is subject to fixing any remaining bugs in ACPI which may
|
|
cause the thermal throttling not to happen at the right time.

|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: __do_IRQ all in one fits nothing interrupt handler
|
|
When: 2.6.32
|
|
Why: __do_IRQ was kept for easy migration to the type flow handlers.
|
|
More than two years of migration time is enough.
|
|
Who: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: fakephp and associated sysfs files in /sys/bus/pci/slots/
|
|
When: 2011
|
|
Why: In 2.6.27, the semantics of /sys/bus/pci/slots was redefined to
|
|
represent a machine's physical PCI slots. The change in semantics
|
|
had userspace implications, as the hotplug core no longer allowed
|
|
drivers to create multiple sysfs files per physical slot (required
|
|
for multi-function devices, e.g.). fakephp was seen as a developer's
|
|
tool only, and its interface changed. Too late, we learned that
|
|
there were some users of the fakephp interface.
|
|
|
|
In 2.6.30, the original fakephp interface was restored. At the same
|
|
time, the PCI core gained the ability that fakephp provided, namely
|
|
function-level hot-remove and hot-add.
|
|
|
|
Since the PCI core now provides the same functionality, exposed in:
|
|
|
|
/sys/bus/pci/rescan
|
|
/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../remove
|
|
/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../rescan
|
|
|
|
there is no functional reason to maintain fakephp as well.
|
|
|
|
We will keep the existing module so that 'modprobe fakephp' will
|
|
present the old /sys/bus/pci/slots/... interface for compatibility,
|
|
but users are urged to migrate their applications to the API above.
|
|
|
|
After a reasonable transition period, we will remove the legacy
|
|
fakephp interface.

---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT
|
|
When: 2.6.33
|
|
Why: Should be implemented in userspace, policy daemon.
|
|
Who: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net>
|
|
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: CONFIG_INOTIFY
|
|
When: 2.6.33
|
|
Why: last user (audit) will be converted to the newer more generic
|
|
and more easily maintained fsnotify subsystem
|
|
Who: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
|
|
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: sound-slot/service-* module aliases and related clutters in
|
|
sound/sound_core.c
|
|
When: August 2010
|
|
Why: OSS sound_core grabs all legacy minors (0-255) of SOUND_MAJOR
|
|
(14) and requests modules using custom sound-slot/service-*
|
|
module aliases. The only benefit of doing this is allowing
|
|
use of custom module aliases which might as well be considered
|
|
a bug at this point. This preemptive claiming prevents
|
|
alternative OSS implementations.
|
|
|
|
Till the feature is removed, the kernel will be requesting
|
|
both sound-slot/service-* and the standard char-major-* module
|
|
aliases and allow turning off the pre-claiming selectively via
|
|
CONFIG_SOUND_OSS_CORE_PRECLAIM and soundcore.preclaim_oss
|
|
kernel parameter.
|
|
|
|
After the transition phase is complete, both the custom module
|
|
aliases and switches to disable it will go away. This removal
|
|
will also allow making ALSA OSS emulation independent of
|
|
sound_core. The dependency will be broken then too.

|
|
|
|
What: Support for VMware's guest paravirtuliazation technique [VMI] will be
|
|
dropped.
|
|
When: 2.6.37 or earlier.
|
|
Why: With the recent innovations in CPU hardware acceleration technologies
|
|
from Intel and AMD, VMware ran a few experiments to compare these
|
|
techniques to guest paravirtualization technique on VMware's platform.
|
|
These hardware assisted virtualization techniques have outperformed the
|
|
performance benefits provided by VMI in most of the workloads. VMware
|
|
expects that these hardware features will be ubiquitous in a couple of
|
|
years, as a result, VMware has started a phased retirement of this
|
|
feature from the hypervisor. We will be removing this feature from the
|
|
Kernel too. Right now we are targeting 2.6.37 but can retire earlier if
|
|
technical reasons (read opportunity to remove major chunk of pvops)
|
|
arise.
|
|
|
|
Please note that VMI has always been an optimization and non-VMI kernels
|
|
still work fine on VMware's platform.
|
|
Latest versions of VMware's product which support VMI are,
|
|
Workstation 7.0 and VSphere 4.0 on ESX side, future maintainence
|
|
releases for these products will continue supporting VMI.
|

----------------------------
|
|
|
|
What: Support for lcd_switch and display_get in asus-laptop driver
|
|
When: March 2010
|
|
Why: These two features use non-standard interfaces. There are the
|
|
only features that really need multiple path to guess what's
|
|
the right method name on a specific laptop.
|
|
|
|
Removing them will allow to remove a lot of code an significantly
|
|
clean the drivers.
|
|
|
|
This will affect the backlight code which won't be able to know
|
|
if the backlight is on or off. The platform display file will also be
|
|
write only (like the one in eeepc-laptop).
|
|
|
|
This should'nt affect a lot of user because they usually know
|
|
when their display is on or off.

What: KVM paravirt mmu host support
|
|
When: January 2011
|
|
Why: The paravirt mmu host support is slower than non-paravirt mmu, both

|
on newer and older hardware. It is already not exposed to the guest,

What: iwlwifi 50XX module parameters
|
|
When: 2.6.40
|
|
Why: The "..50" modules parameters were used to configure 5000 series and
|
|
up devices; different set of module parameters also available for 4965
|
|
with same functionalities. Consolidate both set into single place
|
|
in drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-agn.c

What: iwl4965 alias support
|
|
When: 2.6.40
|
|
Why: Internal alias support has been present in module-init-tools for some
|
|
time, the MODULE_ALIAS("iwl4965") boilerplate aliases can be removed
|
|
with no impact.

What: video4linux /dev/vtx teletext API support
|
|
When: 2.6.35
|
|
Files: drivers/media/video/saa5246a.c drivers/media/video/saa5249.c
|
|
include/linux/videotext.h
|
|
Why: The vtx device nodes have been superseded by vbi device nodes
|
|
for many years. No applications exist that use the vtx support.
|
|
Of the two i2c drivers that actually support this API the saa5249
|
|
has been impossible to use for a year now and no known hardware
|
|
that supports this device exists. The saa5246a is theoretically
|
|
supported by the old mxb boards, but it never actually worked.
|
|
|
|
In summary: there is no hardware that can use this API and there
|
|
are no applications actually implementing this API.
|
|
|
|
The vtx support still reserves minors 192-223 and we would really
|
|
like to reuse those for upcoming new functionality. In the unlikely
|
|
event that new hardware appears that wants to use the functionality
|
|
provided by the vtx API, then that functionality should be build
|
|
around the sliced VBI API instead.

What: old ieee1394 subsystem (CONFIG_IEEE1394)
|
|
When: 2.6.37
|
|
Files: drivers/ieee1394/ except init_ohci1394_dma.c
|
|
Why: superseded by drivers/firewire/ (CONFIG_FIREWIRE) which offers more
|
|
features, better performance, and better security, all with smaller
|
|
and more modern code base
