TODO: Remove in late 2019 unless there are users
|
|
|
|
|
|
I tried to find any indication of whether the capi drivers are
|
|
still in use, and have not found anything from a long time ago.
|
|
|
|
With public ISDN networks almost completely shut down over the past 12
|
|
months, there is very little you can actually do with this hardware. The
|
|
main remaining use case would be to connect ISDN voice phones to an
|
|
in-house installation with Asterisk or LCR, but anyone trying this in
|
|
turn seems to be using either the mISDN driver stack, or out-of-tree
|
|
drivers from the hardware vendors.
|
|
|
|
I may of course have missed something, so I would suggest moving
|
|
these into drivers/staging/ just in case someone still uses one
|
|
of the three remaining in-kernel drivers (avm, hysdn, gigaset).
|
|
|
|
If nobody complains, we can remove them entirely in six months,
|
|
or otherwise move the core code and any drivers that are still
|
|
needed back into drivers/isdn.
