The entire git history for this driver looks like tree-wide
and automated cleanups. There's even more coming now with
AI, so let's try to delete it instead.

<title>net: ethernet: neterion: s2io: remove unused driver</title>

The s2io driver supports Exar (formerly Neterion and S2io) PCI-X 10
Gigabit Ethernet cards. Hardware supporting PCI-X has not been
manufactured in years. On x86, it was quickly replaced by PCIe. While
it stuck around longer on POWER hardware, the last POWER hardware to
support it was POWER7, which is not supported by ppc64le Linux
distributions. The last supported mainstream ppc64 Linux distribution
was RHEL 7; while it is still supported under ELS, ELS is only
available for x86 and IBM Z. It is possible to use many PCI-X cards in
standard PCI slots (which are still available on new motherboards), but
it does not make sense to do so for 10 Gigabit Ethernet because the
maximum bandwidth of standard PCI is only 1067 Mbps. It is therefore
highly unlikely that this driver is still being used. Remove the
driver, and move the former maintainer to the CREDITS file (restoring
credit for the vxge driver, which was removed in commit f05643a0f60b
("eth: remove neterion/vxge").

<title>watchdog: softlockup: panic when lockup duration exceeds N thresholds</title>
<updated>2026-01-21T03:44:20+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.toradex.cn/cgit/linux-toradex.git/commit/?id=e700f5d1560798aacf0e56fdcc70ee2c20bf56ec'/>
<id>e700f5d1560798aacf0e56fdcc70ee2c20bf56ec</id>
<content type='text'>
The softlockup_panic sysctl is currently a binary option: panic
immediately or never panic on soft lockups.

Panicking on any soft lockup, regardless of duration, can be overly
aggressive for brief stalls that may be caused by legitimate operations. 
Conversely, never panicking may allow severe system hangs to persist
undetected.

Extend softlockup_panic to accept an integer threshold, allowing the
kernel to panic only when the normalized lockup duration exceeds N
watchdog threshold periods.  This provides finer-grained control to
distinguish between transient delays and persistent system failures.

The accepted values are:
- 0: Don't panic (unchanged)
- 1: Panic when duration &gt;= 1 * threshold (20s default, original behavior)
- N &gt; 1: Panic when duration &gt;= N * threshold (e.g., 2 = 40s, 3 = 60s.)

The original behavior is preserved for values 0 and 1, maintaining full
backward compatibility while allowing systems to tolerate brief lockups
while still catching severe, persistent hangs.

Remove the cxl driver that provides support for the IBM Coherent
Accelerator Processor Interface. Revert or clean up associated code in
arch/powerpc that is no longer necessary.

cxl has received minimal maintenance for several years, and is not
supported on the Power10 processor. We aren't aware of any users who are
likely to be using recent kernels.

Thanks to Mikey Neuling, Ian Munsie, Daniel Axtens, Frederic Barrat,
Christophe Lombard, Philippe Bergheaud, Vaibhav Jain and Alastair
D'Silva for their work on this driver over the years.

All modules that need CONFIG_LIBCRC32C already select it, so there is no
need to bother users about the option.
