+ * version sym53c8xx-1.3g
+ - merge of driver 1.3f with linux-2.2.11-pre3
+ - remove the broken testing of the chip being connected to SCSI
+ from the SCSI interrupt handling code.
+
+Sun May 9 15:00 1999 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr)
+ * version sym53c8xx-1.3f
+ - Fix the misdetection of SYM53C875E (was detected as a 876).
+ - Fix the misdetection of SYM53C810 not A (was detected as a 810A).
+ - Support for the 53C895A by Pamela Delaney <pam.delaney@lsil.com>
+ The 53C895A contains all of the features of the 896 but has only
+ one channel and has a 32 bit PCI bus. It does 64 bit PCI addressing
+ using dual cycle PCI data transfers.
+ - Call request_region() event if MMIO is used and not normal IO.
+ This allows sym and the ncr driver to be loaded in any order
+ without any risk of attaching the same device.
+ - Set the actual host ID used for each host in the scsi host data
+ structure. The mid-layer SCSI driver needs this information.
+ - Miscellaneous minor fixes.
+
+Tue Apr 15 10:00 1999 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr)
+ * version sym53c8xx-1.3e
+ - Support for any number of LUNs (64) (SPI2-compliant).
+ (Btw, this may only be ever usefull under linux-2.2 ;-))
+
+Sun Apr 11 10:00 1999 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr)
+ * version sym53c8xx-1.3d
+ - Add 'hostid:#id' boot option. This option allows to change the
+ default SCSI id the driver uses for controllers.
+ - Make SCRIPTS not use self-mastering for PCI.
+ There were still 2 places the driver used this feature of the
+ 53C8XX family.
+ - Move some data structures (nvram layouts and driver set-up) to
+ the sym53c8xx_defs.h file. So, the both drivers will share them.
+ - Set MAX LUNS to 16 (instead of 8).
