d93e795b86 staging: ks7010: Remove unused driver
Wolfram contributed this driver in 2016. He is not using it anymore and
confirmed it to be removed.

It is hard to find hardware around the globe. When it is offered it is
expensive and performance is low.

Remove unused driver.

eb563dc752 staging: pi433: Remove unused driver
Marcus started a project in 2016 to bring the pi433 alive. One project
was funded successfully but the second not. So only a few pi433 got sold
to early adaptors during this time that ended late 2017. There is a
simple user space program available for a demo with the pi433 but that
does not use this driver.

The driver is unused since 2018. No description or user space application
to use it can be found. To bring it alive the device tree needs to be
adjusted manually.

The last patch reviewed by Marcus was in June 2018, last patch tested
was in July 2017.

No response since 27. March 2024 regarding the removal of the driver.
Remove unused driver because of the above named reasons.

2095265523 staging: wlan-ng: Remove broken driver prism2_usb
Driver has a throughput of 200 to 800kByte/s in non encrypted
transmission. All encrypted modes are not working. WLAN without WPA2 is
useless these days. Driver is unused since April 2021 as a bug broke the
function. Find fix for bug in link below. Remove driver because of its
low performance and unusability.

875be09092 staging: qlge: Retire the driver
No significant improvements have been done to this driver since commit
a7c3ddf29a ("staging: qlge: clean up debugging code in the QL_ALL_DUMP
ifdef land") in January 2021. The driver should not stay in staging
forever. Since it has been abandoned by the vendor and no one has stepped
up to maintain it, delete it.

If some users manifest themselves, the driver will be restored to
drivers/net/ as suggested in the linked message.

fdf6c2309f staging: r8188eu: delete driver
Now that the same hardware that the r8188eu driver supported is
supported by the real wireless driver rtl8xxxu, the r8188eu driver can
be deleted.

Also the rtl8xxxu driver supports way more devices, and is a fraction of
the overall size, making this a much better overall solution.

Thanks to the r8188eu developers and maintainers and reviewers over the
years, your work allowed Linux users to use their hardware before the
real driver was implemented properly.

Linus Torvalds
bdc753c7fc Here's the main clk pull request for this merge window. We have some
late breaking reports that a patch series to rework clk rate range
 support broke boot on some devices, so I've left that branch out of this
 PR. Hopefully we can get to that next week, or punt on it and let it
 bake another cycle. That means we don't really have any changes to the
 core framework this time around besides a few typo fixes. Instead this
 is all clk driver updates and fixes.
 
 The usual suspects are here (again), with Qualcomm dominating the
 diffstat. We look to have gained support for quite a few new Qualcomm
 SoCs and Dmitry worked on updating many of the existing Qualcomm drivers
 to use clk_parent_data. After that we have MediaTek drivers getting some
 much needed updates, in particular to support GPU DVFS. There are also
 quite a few Samsung clk driver patches, but that's mostly because there
 was a maintainer change and so last release we missed some of those
 patches.
 
 Overall things look normal, but I'm slowly reviewing core framework code
 nowadays and that shows given the rate range patches had to be yanked
 last minute. Let's hope this situation changes soon.

db65becab2 staging: fwserial: delete the driver.
In the years since it was added (2012), no one has stepped up to
maintain this properly and get it merged into the kernel tree.  So
remove it as it's obviously not being used.

If it is being used, we can easily revert this and take the time to get
it out of the staging tree.

9dbdac024d staging: octeon-usb: move driver out of staging
The Octeon usb driver has been in staging for a long time and used in
Ubiquiti routers for a while now.
It's been built and then tested on real hardware with several usb devices
and it is proven to be stable and ready to be moved to its proper place
in the kernel tree.

Move it to drivers/usb/host and adjust its Makefile, Kconfig and defconfig
dependencies.

Many thanks to the developers who made it happen.

e36c9c0018 staging: vme: Move 'vme/devices/' to 'vme_user/'
In <db3b9e990e75573402cda22faf933760f076c033> ("Staging: VME: move VME
drivers out of staging") the vme code, board and bridge drivers were
moved out of the staging tree, remaining only the VME user device
driver.

Since this driver is the only one remaining in staging, such multi-level
structure confuses more than helps. The current structure is as follows:

 - drivers/staging/vme/
                       Makefile
                       devices/
                               Kconfig
                               Makefile
                               vme_user.c
                               vme_user.h

The top-level Makefile has the only function of calling another Makefile
into the devices/ subdirectory. This latter only compiles the vme_user
driver, since there is no other in the staging tree.

This patch removes the unnecessary Makefile from the 'vme/' dir, move
the contents of 'vme/devices' into the 'vme/' dir, and renames it to
'vme_user/' (the driver name), allowing a straightforward understanding
of this driver's contents. Furthermore, it updates the MAINTAINERS file
to properly reflect the new paths.

adebf45717 staging: vme: Move vme_user to staging KConfig
Currently, the VME_USER driver is in the staging tree Kconfig, unlike
other VME drivers already moved to the main portions of the kernel tree.
Its configuration is, however, nested into the VME_BUS config option,
which might be misleading.

Since the staging tree "[...] is used to hold stand-alone drivers and
filesystem that are not ready to be merged into the main portion of the
Linux kernel tree [...]"(from
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20090320172502.GA14647@kroah.com/T/),
staging drivers should appear nested into the Main Menu -> Device
Drivers -> Staging Drivers to make sure the user don't pick it without
being fully aware of its staging status as it could be the case in
Menu -> Device Drivers -> VME bridge support (the current location).

With this change menuconfig users will clearly know this is not a driver
in the main portion of the kernel tree and decide whether to build it or
not with that clearly in mind.

This change goes into the same direction of commit
<4b4cdf3979c32fa3d042d150f49449c74d048553> ("STAGING: Move staging
drivers back to staging-specific menu")

e5f45b011e staging: Remove the drivers for the Unisys s-Par
The Unisys sub-tree of drivers/staging contains three drivers for the
"Unisys Secure Partition" (s-Par(R)): visorhba, visorinput, visornic.

They have no maintainers, in fact the only one that is listed in
MAINTAINERS has an unreacheable email address. During 2021 and 2022
several patches have been submitted to these drivers but nobody at
Unisys cared of reviewing the changes. Probably, also the
"sparmaintainer" internal list of unisys.com is not anymore read by
interested Unisys' engineers.

Therefore, remove the drivers/staging/unisys directory and delete the
relevant entries in the MAINTAINERS, Kconfig, Makefile files, then
remove also the drivers/visorbus directory which is not anymore needed
(it contained the driver for the virtualized bus for the Unisys s-Par
firmware).

This driver was a added a time ago and there is no special effort or work
to clean it and any progress at all to mainline it. Also, there is already
a driver from Mediatek in 'drivers/dma/mediatek/mtk-hsdma.c' which looks
pretty similar to this. So the way of supporting HSDMA for mt7621 would be
to modify that driver instead.

Core:
 
  - bpf:
 	- allow bpf programs calling kernel functions (initially to
 	  reuse TCP congestion control implementations)
 	- enable task local storage for tracing programs - remove the
 	  need to store per-task state in hash maps, and allow tracing
 	  programs access to task local storage previously added for
 	  BPF_LSM
 	- add bpf_for_each_map_elem() helper, allowing programs to
 	  walk all map elements in a more robust and easier to verify
 	  fashion
 	- sockmap: support UDP and cross-protocol BPF_SK_SKB_VERDICT
 	  redirection
 	- lpm: add support for batched ops in LPM trie
 	- add BTF_KIND_FLOAT support - mostly to allow use of BTF
 	  on s390 which has floats in its headers files
 	- improve BPF syscall documentation and extend the use of kdoc
 	  parsing scripts we already employ for bpf-helpers
 	- libbpf, bpftool: support static linking of BPF ELF files
 	- improve support for encapsulation of L2 packets
 
  - xdp: restructure redirect actions to avoid a runtime lookup,
 	improving performance by 4-8% in microbenchmarks
 
  - xsk: build skb by page (aka generic zerocopy xmit) - improve
 	performance of software AF_XDP path by 33% for devices
 	which don't need headers in the linear skb part (e.g. virtio)

 	on next-hops group changes (incl. offload for mlxsw)
 
  - ipv6: segment routing: add support for IPv4 decapsulation
 
  - icmp: add support for RFC 8335 extended PROBE messages
 
  - inet: use bigger hash table for IP ID generation
 
  - tcp: deal better with delayed TX completions - make sure we don't
 	give up on fast TCP retransmissions only because driver is
 	slow in reporting that it completed transmitting the original
 
  - tcp: reorder tcp_congestion_ops for better cache locality
 
  - mptcp:
 	- add sockopt support for common TCP options
 	- add support for common TCP msg flags
 	- include multiple address ids in RM_ADDR

 	place correctly	even for encapsulated UDP traffic
 
  - micro-optimize dev_gro_receive() and flow dissection, avoid
 	retpoline overhead on VLAN and TEB GRO
 
  - use less memory for sysctls, add a new sysctl type, to allow using
 	u8 instead of "int" and "long" and shrink networking sysctls
 
  - veth: allow GRO without XDP - this allows aggregating UDP
 	packets before handing them off to routing, bridge, OvS, etc.
 
  - allow specifing ifindex when device is moved to another namespace

 	policing (incl. offload for nfp)
 
  - psample: add additional metadata attributes like transit delay

8ffdff6a8c staging: comedi: move out of staging directory
The comedi code came into the kernel back in 2008, but traces its
lifetime to much much earlier.  It's been polished and buffed and
there's really nothing preventing it from being part of the "real"
portion of the kernel.

So move it to drivers/comedi/ as it belongs there.

Many thanks to the hundreds of developers who did the work to make this
happen.

18507b8f63 staging: wimax: delete from the tree.
As stated in f54ec58fee ("wimax: move out to staging"), the wimax code
is dead with no known users.  It has stayed in staging for 5 months,
with no one willing to take up the codebase for maintance and support,
so let's just remove it entirely for now.

If someone comes along and wants to revive it, a simple revert of this
patch is a good place to start.

918ce05bbe staging: gasket: remove it from the kernel
As none of the proposed things that need to be changed in the gasket
drivers have ever been done, and there has not been any forward progress
to get this out of staging, it seems totally abandonded so remove the
code entirely so that people do not spend their time doing tiny cleanups
for code that will never get out of staging.

If this code is actually being used, it can be reverted simply and then
cleaned up properly, but as it is abandoned, let's just get rid of it.

Now that the dpaa2-switch driver has basic I/O capabilities on the
switch port net_devices and multiple bridging domains are supported,
move the driver out of staging.

The dpaa2-switch driver is placed right next to the dpaa2-eth driver
since, in the near future, they will be sharing most of the data path.
I didn't implement code reuse in this patch series because I wanted to
keep it as small as possible.

Also, the README is removed from staging with the intention to add
proper rst documentation afterwards to actually match was is supported
by the driver.

f54ec58fee wimax: move out to staging
There are no known users of this driver as of October 2020, and it will
be removed unless someone turns out to still need it in future releases.

According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WiMAX_networks, there
have been many public wimax networks, but it appears that many of these
have migrated to LTE or discontinued their service altogether.
As most PCs and phones lack WiMAX hardware support, the remaining
networks tend to use standalone routers. These almost certainly
run Linux, but not a modern kernel or the mainline wimax driver stack.

NetworkManager appears to have dropped userspace support in 2015
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=747846, the
www.linuxwimax.org
site had already shut down earlier.

WiMax is apparently still being deployed on airport campus networks
("AeroMACS"), but in a frequency band that was not supported by the old
Intel 2400m (used in Sandy Bridge laptops and earlier), which is the
only driver using the kernel's wimax stack.

Move all files into drivers/staging/wimax, including the uapi header
files and documentation, to make it easier to remove it when it gets
to that. Only minimal changes are made to the source files, in order
to make it possible to port patches across the move.

Also remove the MAINTAINERS entry that refers to a broken mailing
list and website.

WILC1000 is an IEEE 802.11 b/g/n IoT link controller module. The
WILC1000 connects to Microchip AVR/SMART MCUs, SMART MPUs, and other
processors with minimal resource requirements with a simple
SPI/SDIO-to-Wi-Fi interface.

WILC1000 driver has been part of staging for few years. With
contributions from the community, it has improved significantly. Full
driver review has helped in achieving the current state.
The details for those reviews are captured in 1 & 2.

Since commit 84af7a6194 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over
'---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually
decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances.

This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines,
I also fixed the indentation.

There are a variety of indentation styles found.

  a) 4 spaces + '---help---'
  b) 7 spaces + '---help---'
  c) 8 spaces + '---help---'
  d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---'
  e) 1 tab + '---help---'    (correct indentation)
  f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---'
  g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---'

In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the
following commend:

  $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/'

caa6772db4 Staging: remove wusbcore and UWB from the kernel tree.
It's been over 6 months, and no one has noticed that these drivers are
deleted, probably because no one actually has this hardware.  As no one
has volunteered to maintain the code, let's drop it for good.

95ace52e40 staging: octeon-usb: delete the octeon usb host controller driver
This driver was merged back in 2013 and shows no progress toward every
being merged into the "correct" part of the kernel.  The code doesn't
even build for anyone unless you have the specific hardware platform
selected, so odds are it doesn't even work anymore.

Remove it for now and is someone comes along that has the hardware and
is willing to fix it up, it can be reverted.

710d7fbe21 staging: octeon: delete driver
This driver has been in the tree since 2009 with no real movement to get
it out.  Now it is starting to cause build issues and other problems for
people who want to fix coding style problems, but can not actually build
it.

As nothing is happening here, just delete the module entirely.
