MMC Flash Memory Card Support
Noting the approaching 2.6.24 merge window which will follow the upcoming release of the 2.6.23 kernel, MultiMedia Card (MMC) subsystem maintainer Pierre Ossman described what he plans to push upstream, "this release will probably be one of the biggest ones for the MMC layer so far. The major pieces are SDIO and SPI support, but there are several small nuggets as well." Regarding the new Secure Digital Input Output (SDIO) stack he noted, "gone are the days of having to rely on proprietary stacks for SDIO support in Linux. So no more spotty support for hosts and possible GPL problems. SDIO will now be a standard feature of Linux." He also described three working drivers already ported to the new stack.
