=== Libraries ===
- USR_OSS -
R: UOS_KeyWait consumes too much CPU time
M: delay added to provide CPU time to other threads
- MK -
R:1. BSOD 0x8E with EXCEPTION_CODE 0xc0000047 (semaphore max count exceeded)
  2. BBIS interface: MK must not call BBIS driver's IrqEnable with masked IRQ
  3. BBIS interface: prevent concurrent BBIS/LL-Drv. IrqEnable calls
  4. support required for chameleon FPGAs with mixed i/o and mem mapped units
  5. sub device list not save for concurrent execution
  6. boot up problems with the chameleon BBIS
  7. M_read/M_write calls from MDIS4 applications not suppported by mistake
M:1. error handling improved to prevent release of not claimed semaphore
  2.a) BBIS interface: disabling BBIS IRQ no longer with masked IRQ
    b) MK_REVISION set to MDIS_MKREV_2
  3. BBIS interface: enable BBIS IRQ with claimed semaphore
  4. BBIS interface: use newer BBIS_CFGINFO_ADDRSPACE prior BBIS_BRDINFO_ADDRSPACE
  5. sub device list protected with semaphore
  6. IRQ initialization changed
  7. support MDIS4 IOCTLs for MDIS4 applications
- OSS -
R:1. SMB2 lib with alerts and busyWait>0 calls OSS_SemWait()
  2. prevent spin-lock dead-looks
M:1.a) OSS_SemWait: IRQL = DISPATCH_LEVEL: skip waiting
    b) OSS_SemWait: IRQL > DISPATCH_LEVEL: skip KeWaitForSingleObject(), return ERR_OSS
  2. use WDF spin-locks and restrict usage to IRQL <= DISPATCH_LEVEL
- SMB2 -
R:1. smb2_ich: AMD FCH SMB controller support
  2. support for FCH ASF SMB controller
  3. SMBISA_16Z001 introduction
M:1. smb2_ich: LocWaitBusyReady(): delay added for FCH
  2. smb2.lib: smb2_ich implementation for FCH ASF added
  3. 16Z001 support added to smb2_io.lib
- CHAMELEON -
R:1. chameleon table BAR descriptor changed to support io mapped address spaces
  2. may read from BAR0 by using the wrong address mapping
  3. new FPGA device WB28xx bus bridge
M:1. evaluates/mask-out LSB of BAx to get address mapping type and real base address
  2. prevent mem/io lib version to read from io/mem mapped BAR0
  3. added WB28XX bus bridge support
- MDIS_CLINST -
R: new MEN periphery boards: F207, G215
M: support added for: F207, G215
=== Tools ===
- MDISWIZ -
R:1. new bus interfaces required: CpciSer
  2. no MEN HW with PC104+ PCI (only PCI-104)
M:1. bus interface CpciSer (and StdPciE) added
  2. bus interface Pc104PlusPci replaced with Pci104
=== Drivers ===
- MT -
R: some library changes
M: rebuild

     drivers (e.g. M72 driver)
