Hi Dmitry,
I was telling you on the other thread that to remove db9_base we will
need to modify the parport code and then it has to be tested by everyone
again and that will also change the old behaviour of parport. The v2 to
which I am replying now is still having that db9_base.

Please see the following patch, this is the minimum change required to
update db9 driver. Personally I donot like this approach as in this
method if a parallel port is hotplugged after this driver is loaded then
it will not work. Please let me know your views on the posted v2 and
also on the following proposal.

regards
sudip

Hi Dmitry,
Did you have a chance to look at this?
Pali Rohár has the hardware and he is ready to test it.

Right, so I agree that we should allow for hotplug and so the v2 is in
that sense is better than v3.

I still would prefer for the core to keep track of relationship between
devices and drivers, but if you would prefer to postpone implementing it
that woudl be fine.

> Pali Rohár has the hardware and he is ready to test it.

Pali, could you give the v2 version of the patch a spin
(https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/6940321/)?

Thanks.

Thanks. Right now the code is already a mixture of the new code and the
old code and its almost a mess. After all drivers are converted and the
old code removed then the parport code will become much simpler than
what it is now. And it will be easy to make those enhancements at that
time.

Adding Pali to the cc list.

Hi Pali,
Are you still away from your desktop with the joystick? or can it be
tested?

Yes, I'm still away from desktop with joystick... First I need to know
against which kernel version can be that patch tested? I remember that
v1 applied correctly against ubuntu's default 3.13 (which is installed
on that desktop) but driver did not compiled.

Sorry for the delay in replying. The change in parallel port code was
merged in 4.2, so you can test it againt 4.2-rc*.
