Thanks, but if you pull changes out of CVS could you please keep the 
author intact? CVS may be bad, but it's not that bad.

more than 1.5 year before your commit, so there's quite a chunk of history
missing...

I'm serious, BTW - I certainly would have no problem preserving attribution,
but it simply hadn't been there.  CVS logs are only as good as the data
being put there by committers...

With some archaeology...  It looks like drivers/macintosh part is from
Geert (with chunks from benh? not sure) circa Dec 2000; adb.h is a missing
piece of earlier patch (one that had leaked in Feb 2000, $DEITY knowns how
much older it is)...

I'd say Geert, but it probably comes from the Mac tree. Anyway, it 
wouldn't be such a bad idea to ask him first why it's in his postponed 
queue:

http://linux-m68k-cvs.ubb.ca/~geert/linux-m68k-2.6.x-merging/POSTPONED/130-adbraw.diff

My guess it needs some ack from the ppc people.

Nah, I never did Mac development ;-)

IIRC, this change originally came from maclinux CVS (which predates Linux/m68k
CVS by several years) via email. If you wait a few hours, the original author
probably will start yelling ;-)

Alternatively, I can dig up my email archives from before 2000 to identify
him....

It doesn't - behaviour in case when ADBREQ_RAW is not passed in flags had
been obviously unchanged.  And only m68k passes ADBREQ_RAW in there.
So no, it doesn't affect ppc at all.

Indeed, usually there's a good reason for being in that state instead of not
being merged ;-)

Even if behavior is unchanged, this doesn't mean that people like their code
being modified behind their back...

Anyway, last time I tried to bring this up with the union of Mac and PowerMac
guys, no one seemed to remember why ADBREQ_RAW was really needed...

After reading some more...  Is there any reason why mac/misc.c can't
simply use cuda_request() and pmu_request() instead?  At least for
read/write for time and nvram we end up with identical sequence of
operations anyway - if you expand the calls in
        adb_request((struct adb_request *) &req, NULL,
                        ADBREQ_RAW|ADBREQ_SYNC,
                        2, CUDA_PACKET, CUDA_GET_TIME);
[m68k]
and
        if (cuda_request(&req, NULL, 2, CUDA_PACKET, CUDA_GET_TIME) < 0)
		/* bail out */
        while (!req.complete)
                cuda_poll();
[ppc]
until you get to call of cuda_write(), you'll see the same code.  Come
to think of that...  Shouldn't the ifdefs for CONFIG_ADB_PMU in there be for
CONFIG_ADB_PMU68?  The former depends on PMAC_PPC, so it's not particulary
useful thing to check on m68k...

Honestly, the RTC/PRAM code is completely broken in 2.6 for mac68k anyway.
We definitely shouldn't be using CONFIG_ADB_PMU in the m68k code. I suspect
that wasn't found due to the fact that the pmu68k driver has never been
reliable enough to use, so everyone blames that for stuff breaking. Changing
that use of CONFIG_ADB_PMU to CONFIG_ADB_PMU68K seems like the correct
thing to do in this case.

I would like to stop using adb_request in mac/misc.c as well, but it's not
as simple as just changing it to use cuda_request and pmu_request. That
should do it for the cuda and pmu based models, but the egret (Mac IIsi
and friends) based models get left out by that fix. If noone else looks
at it before me, I'll check this out after I fix some other stuff related
to m68k mac support.

According to the the Linx-mac68k repo, one line of that change belongs to 
Joshua M. Thompson, while the rest of that code was committed by Ray 
Knight, (the changelog says it was a merge from 2.4.0).

Credit for that change is due to Joshua M. Thompson.

OK...  AFAICS, patch I've just posted to l-k and linux-m68k (subject:
[PATCH 04/36] m68k: switch mac/misc.c to direct use of appropriate
cuda/pmu/maciisi requests) should so it.  Do you have any problems with
that variant?

I don't have any big issues with it. However, I am not at home right now
and can't actually try it out on real hardware. It looks like it should
work as well as the version it is replacing. I'm pretty sure the IIsi
case was broken before. I think we should go ahead and commit this to
get rid of the issues it fixes, and then come back to it later and take
another pass at it to fix the fact that it has never worked in 2.6 on
some models. It's better than nothing.
