5ae76830c76cf38708399245606e4e07a33fe51c - s390/tape: Consolidate tape config options and modules

Wed, 04 Feb 2026 16:30:40 +0100

s390/tape: Consolidate tape config options and modulesThe tape device driver only supports 3490E devices on Virtual Tape Server(VTS). There is no point in keeping separated options and modules fordifferent device types and general hardware support. Consolidate the tapeconfig option into a single option, which enables the complete tape supportwith one singular module called 'tape_s390'. The corresponding module entrypoints are adapted and consolidate in tape_init() and tape_exit()respectively in tape_core.cThe current module author and descriptions of the individual tapemodules are outdated and haven't been changed for quite some time.Change it to a more generic description that is in line with thecorresponding supported s390 architecture for the single tape module.Signed-off-by: Jan Höppner Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens List of files: /linux/drivers/s390/char/Kconfig

01d098dcfdd433862dec89c8b4f9c6372211fe73 - Merge branch 'tape-devices'

Wed, 04 Feb 2026 08:32:01 +0100

Merge branch 'tape-devices'Jan Höppner says:====================Quite a lot of the tape device driver code is outdated as devices andstorage systems supported by that code aren't supported by IBM anymore fora long time. Especially physical tape devices are not supported or useddirectly anymore.The only tape storage system supported by IBM is the Virtual Tape Server(VTS) family with TS7700 systems [1]. Host systems will only talk to VTSand are presented with the virtualized 3490E tape device type only. VTS canand still uses tape libraries with physical 3592 cartridges as storagebackends (e.g. TS4500). However, these are never seen by any host.The general goal/idea for the tape device driver is to only support VTSfrom now on. This series gets rid of old outdated code that is notrelevant to VTS. There is probably quite a bit more that could becleaned up or could be improved. However, this is a first run to cleanupthe code base and somewhat reduce maintenance burden.[1] https://www.ibm.com/products/ts7700[2] https://www.ibm.com/products/ts4500====================Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens List of files: /linux/drivers/s390/char/Kconfig

s390/tape: Remove support for 3590/3592 modelsPhysical 3590/3592 tape models are not supported anymore for a very longtime. The Virtual Tape Server (VTS) emulates and presents only 3490Emodels to the host. This is the only supported model and storage server.Remove the entire code base for 3590/3592 models as it can be considereddead code for quite some time already.Signed-off-by: Jan Höppner Reviewed-by: Jens Remus Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens List of files: /linux/drivers/s390/char/Kconfig
