2012-02-09 | staging: r8712u: Simplify semaphores | Larry Finger | |
I am preparing to convert this driver from semaphore to mutex locking, The first step has been to eliminate a number of semaphores that were initialized but never used, and one whose only use was a single "up" after initialization. A total of 9 semaphores were removed in this process. One other change was to remove some inline semaphore routines that were unused. In addition, several cases had the following structure: down() if () { ... } up() The locking overhead was reduced by moving the up/down inside the if block.

2010-08-20 | staging: r8712u: Add the new driver to the mainline kernel | Larry Finger | |
This code is for a completely new version of the Realtek 8192 USB devices such as the D-Link DWA-130. The Realtek code, which was originally for Linux, Windows XP and Windows CE, has been stripped of all code not needed for Linux. In addition, only one additional configuration variable, which enables AP mode, remains.
