tty: remove the ipwireless driver

2026-08-03T12:43:22+00:00

The last mentions of this driver on local Linux and telco support forums date back to 2011. This does not prove that no users remain, but the likelihood is too low to justify continuing to carry the driver in the kernel. The maintainer agreed that the driver should be removed and noted that it is simple enough to build as an external module if a user resurfaces [1]. Remove the driver along with its Kconfig, defconfig, build and MAINTAINERS entries.

tty: add SPDX identifiers to Kconfig and Makefiles

2019-04-04T16:48:43+00:00

There were a few Kconfig and Makefiles under drivers/tty/ that were missing a SPDX identifier. Fix that up so that automated tools can properly classify all kernel source files.

tty: move ipwireless driver from drivers/char/pcmcia/ to drivers/tty/

As planned by Arnd Bergmann, this moves the ipwireless driver to the drivers/tty/ directory as that's where it really belongs. Cc: Arnd Bergmann Cc: Alan Cox Cc: Jiri Slaby Cc: David Sterba Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
