I have got a cypress usb-ide bridge and I would like to tune or monitor
my disk with tools like hdparm, hddtemp or smartctl.
My controller support a way to send raw ATA command to the disk with
something call atacb (see
http://download.cypress.com.edgesuite.net/design_resources/datasheets/contents/cy7c68300c_8.pdf).
Atacb support can be added for each application, but there is some disadvantages :
- all application need to be patched
- A race is possible if there other accesses, because the emulation can
be split in 2 atacb scsi transactions. One for sending the command, one
for reading the register (if ck_cond is set).
I have implemented the emulation in usb-storage with a special proto_handler,
and an unsual entry.

This changeset from Keith Bennett (via Bob Copeland) moves the Karma
initializer to its own file and adds trapping of the START_STOP command to
enable eject of the device.

This patch adds another usb-storage subdriver, which supports two fairly
old dual-XD/SmartMedia reader-writers (USB1.1 devices).
This driver was written by Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> -- he notes
that he wrote this driver without specs, however a vendor-supplied GPL
driver for the previous generation of products ("sma03") did prove to be
quite useful, as did the sddr09 driver which also has to deal with
low-level physical block layout on SmartMedia.
The original patch has been reformed by me, as it clashed with the
libusual patches.
We really need to consolidate some of this common SmartMedia code, and
get together with the MTD guys to share it with them as well.

This patch adds a shim driver libusual, which routes devices between
usb-storage and ub according to the common table, based on unusual_devs.h.
The help and example syntax is in Kconfig.

This patch is originally from Nick Sillik, and has been rediffed against
the latest tree.
This patch adds usability to the OneTouch Button on Maxtor External USB
Hard Drives. Using an unusual device entry it declares an extra init
function which claims the interrupt endpoint associated with this
button. The button is connected to the input system.

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!
