Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!

+   History:
+    Started: Aug 9 by Lawrence Foard (entropy@world.std.com), to allow user
+     process control of SCSI devices.
+    Development Sponsored by Killy Corp. NY NY
+Original driver (sg.h):
+*       Copyright (C) 1992 Lawrence Foard
+Version 2 and 3 extensions to driver:
+*       Copyright (C) 1998 - 2003 Douglas Gilbert
+
+    Version: 3.5.29 (20030529)
+    This version is for 2.5 series kernels.
+
+    Changes since 3.5.28 (20030308)
+	- fix bug introduced in version 3.1.24 (last segment of sgat list)
+    Changes since 3.5.27 (20020812)
+    	- remove procfs entries: hosts, host_hdr + host_strs (now in sysfs)
+	- add sysfs sg driver params: def_reserved_size, allow_dio, version
+	- new boot option: "sg_allow_dio" and module parameter: "allow_dio"
+        - multiple internal changes due to scsi subsystem rework	
+    Changes since 3.5.26 (20020708)
+	- re-add direct IO using Kai Makisara's work
+	- re-tab to 8, start using C99-isms
+	- simplify memory management
+    Changes since 3.5.25 (20020504)
+	- driverfs additions
+	- copy_to/from_user() fixes [William Stinson]
+	- disable kiobufs support

+Map of SG verions to the Linux kernels in which they appear:
+       ----------        ----------------------------------
+       original          all kernels < 2.2.6
+       2.1.40            2.2.20
+       3.0.x             optional version 3 sg driver for 2.2 series
+       3.1.17++          2.4.0++
+       3.5.23++          2.5.0++
+
+Major new features in SG 3.x driver (cf SG 2.x drivers)
+	- SG_IO ioctl() combines function if write() and read()
+	- new interface (sg_io_hdr_t) but still supports old interface
+	- scatter/gather in user space, direct IO, and mmap supported
+
+ The normal action of this driver is to use the adapter (HBA) driver to DMA
+ data into kernel buffers and then use the CPU to copy the data into the 
+ user space (vice versa for writes). That is called "indirect" IO due to 
+ the double handling of data. There are two methods offered to remove the
+ redundant copy: 1) direct IO which uses the kernel kiobuf mechanism and 
+ 2) using the mmap() system call to map the reserve buffer (this driver has 
+ one reserve buffer per fd) into the user space. Both have their advantages.
+ In terms of absolute speed mmap() is faster. If speed is not a concern, 
+ indirect IO should be fine. Read the documentation for more information.
+
+ ** N.B. To use direct IO 'echo 1 > /proc/scsi/sg/allow_dio' may be
+         needed. That pseudo file's content is defaulted to 0. **
+ 
+ Historical note: this SCSI pass-through driver has been known as "sg" for 
+ a decade. In broader kernel discussions "sg" is used to refer to scatter
+ gather techniques. The context should clarify which "sg" is referred to.
+
+ Documentation
+ =============
+ A web site for the SG device driver can be found at:
+	http://www.torque.net/sg  [alternatively check the MAINTAINERS file]
+ The documentation for the sg version 3 driver can be found at:
+ 	http://www.torque.net/sg/p/sg_v3_ho.html
+ This is a rendering from DocBook source [change the extension to "sgml"
+ or "xml"]. There are renderings in "ps", "pdf", "rtf" and "txt" (soon).
+
+ The older, version 2 documents discuss the original sg interface in detail:
+	http://www.torque.net/sg/p/scsi-generic.txt
+	http://www.torque.net/sg/p/scsi-generic_long.txt
+ A version of this document (potentially out of date) may also be found in
+ the kernel source tree, probably at:
+        Documentation/scsi/scsi-generic.txt .
+
+ Utility and test programs are available at the sg web site. They are 
+ bundled as sg_utils (for the lk 2.2 series) and sg3_utils (for the
+ lk 2.4 series).
+
+ There is a HOWTO on the Linux SCSI subsystem in the lk 2.4 series at:
+ 	http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/SCSI-2.4-HOWTO
