libftdi version 1.5
--------------------------------------------------------------------

libftdi - A library (using libusb) to talk to FTDI's UART/FIFO chips
including the popular bitbang mode.

The following chips are supported:
* FT230X
- FT4232H / FT2232H
- FT232R  / FT245R
- FT2232L / FT2232D / FT2232C
- FT232BM / FT245BM (and the BL/BQ variants)
- FT8U232AM / FT8U245AM

libftdi requires libusb 1.x.

The AUTHORS file contains a list of all the people
that made libftdi possible what it is today.

Changes
-------
* Implement tc[io]flush methods & deprecate broken purge_buffers methods

  Please check your code for ftdi_usb_purge_rx_buffer(),
  ftdi_usb_purge_tx_buffer() and ftdi_usb_purge_buffers()
  and migrate to the new ftdi_tc[io]flush() methods.

  Old code will continue to function, but you'll get
  a deprecation warning during compilation.

* Add program to test buffer flush (purge) functionality
* Add kernel driver auto attach/detach.
  See new AUTO_DETACH_REATACH_SIO_MODULE option
* Add ftdi_setflowctrl_xonxoff()
* ftdi_eeprom / eeprom handling:
  * Unify handling of all boolean eeprom flags
  * Add device release number support
  * Add channel_a_driver support for type xxR chips
  * Add support for group0 drive levels on x232H chips
  * Fix handling of high_current_drive parameter
  * Fix inverted handling of VCP driver field for TYPE_R chips
  * New --verbose option for eeprom decode operation
* Add example code for async mode
* Add SPDX license identifiers to the core library & ftdi_eeprom
* Various python SWIG wrapper improvements
* Various cmake file improvements
* Fix small bugs in error code paths
