2005-06-20[PATCH] Remove struct device::bus_list.mochel@digitalimplant.org
Signed-off-by: Patrick Mochel <mochel@digitalimplant.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-06-20[PATCH] Fix up bus code and remove use of rwsem.mochel@digitalimplant.org
- Don't add devices to bus's embedded kset, since it's not used by anyone anymore. - Don't need to take the bus rwsem when calling {device,driver}_attach(), since those functions use the klists and the klists' spinlocks.

2005-06-20[PATCH] Use bus_for_each_{dev,drv} for driver binding.mochel@digitalimplant.org
- Now possible, since the lists are locked using the klist lock and not the global rwsem. Signed-off-by: Patrick Mochel <mochel@digitalimplant.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2005-06-20[PATCH] Add a klist to struct device_driver for the devices bound to it.mochel@digitalimplant.org
- Use it in driver_for_each_device() instead of the regular list_head and stop using the bus's rwsem for protection. - Use driver_for_each_device() in driver_detach() so we don't deadlock on the bus's rwsem. - Remove ->devices. - Move klist access and sysfs link access out from under device's semaphore, since they're synchronized through other means.

2005-06-20[PATCH] Move device/driver code to drivers/base/dd.cmochel@digitalimplant.org
This relocates the driver binding/unbinding code to drivers/base/dd.c. This is done for two reasons: One, it's not code related to the bus_type itself; it uses some from that, some from devices, and some from drivers. And Two, it will make it easier to do some of the upcoming lock removal on that code.. Signed-off-by: Patrick Mochel <mochel@digitalimplant.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-06-20[PATCH] Add a semaphore to struct device to synchronize calls to its driver.mochel@digitalimplant.org
This adds a per-device semaphore that is taken before every call from the core to a driver method. This prevents e.g. simultaneous calls to the ->suspend() or ->resume() and ->probe() or ->release(), potentially saving a whole lot of headaches. It also moves us a step closer to removing the bus rwsem, since it protects the fields in struct device that are modified by the core.

2005-06-20[PATCH] CLASS: move a "simple" class logic into the class core.gregkh@suse.de
One step on improving the class api so that it can not be used incorrectly. This also fixes the module owner issue with the dev files that happened when the devt logic moved to the class core.

2005-05-23[PATCH] driver core: restore event order for device_add()Kay Sievers
As a result of the split of the kobject-registration and the corresponding hotplug event, the order of events for device_add() has changed. This restores the old order, cause it confused some userspace applications.

2005-05-17[PATCH] Driver Core: remove driver model detach_stateDavid Brownell
The driver model has a "detach_state" mechanism that: - Has never been used by any in-kernel drive; - Is superfluous, since driver remove() methods can do the same thing; - Became buggy when the suspend() parameter changed semantics and type; - Could self-deadlock when called from certain suspend contexts; - Is effectively wasted documentation, object code, and headspace. This removes that "detach_state" mechanism; net code shrink, as well as a per-device saving in the driver model and sysfs.

2005-05-17[PATCH] Driver Core: pm diagnostics update, check for errorsDavid Brownell
This patch includes various tweaks in the messaging that appears during system pm state transitions: * Warn about certain illegal calls in the device tree, like resuming child before parent or suspending parent before child. This could happen easily enough through sysfs, or in some cases when drivers use device_pm_set_parent(). * Be more consistent about dev_dbg() tracing ... do it for resume() and shutdown() too, and never if the driver doesn't have that method. * Say which type of system sleep state is being entered. Except for the warnings, these only affect debug messaging.

2005-05-04[PATCH] drivers/base/bus.c: fix iteration in driver_detach()Roman Kagan
With 2.6.11 and 2.6.12-rc2 (and perhaps a few versions before) usb drivers for multi-interface devices, which do usb_driver_release_interface() in their disconnect(), make rmmod hang. It turns out to be due to a bug in drivers/base/bus.c:driver_detach(), that iterates over the list of attached devices with list_for_each_safe() under an assumption that device_release_driver() only releases the current device, while it may also call device_release_driver() for other devices on the same list. The following patch fixes it. Please consider applying. Signed-off-by: Roman Kagan <rkagan@mail.ru> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2005-04-18[PATCH] export platform_add_devicesRobert Schwebel
platform_add_devices can be used from within modules, so it should be exported. This can for example happen if you have hotpluggable firmware in an FPGA on a system on chip processor; in our case the FPGA is probed for devices and the FPGA base code registers the devices it has found with the kernel. (akpm: I think this is reasonable from a licensing POV: it's unlikely that anyone would be interested in merging such specialised modules into mainline, and it's a GPL export).

Here we add a TIMEOUT value to the hotplug environment of the firmware requesting event. I will adapt udevd not to wait for anything else, if it finds a TIMEOUT key.

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!
