2006-04-01BUG_ON() Conversion in fs/sysfs/Eric Sesterhenn
this changes if() BUG(); constructs to BUG_ON() which is cleaner, contains unlikely() and can better optimized away. Signed-off-by: Eric Sesterhenn <snakebyte@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>
2006-03-20[PATCH] sysfs: kzalloc conversionEric Sesterhenn
this converts fs/sysfs to kzalloc() usage. compile tested with make allyesconfig Signed-off-by: Eric Sesterhenn <snakebyte@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-03-20[PATCH] sysfs: sysfs_remove_dir() needs to invalidate the dentryGreg Kroah-Hartman
When calling sysfs_remove_dir() don't allow any further sysfs functions to work for this kobject anymore. This fixes a nasty USB cdc-acm oops on disconnect. Many thanks to Bob Copeland and Paul Fulghum for taking the time to track this down.

2006-01-09[PATCH] mutex subsystem, semaphore to mutex: VFS, ->i_semJes Sorensen
This patch converts the inode semaphore to a mutex. I have tested it on XFS and compiled as much as one can consider on an ia64. Anyway your luck with it might be different.

2005-08-26[PATCH] Fix oops in sysfs_hash_and_remove_file()James Bottomley
The problem arises if an entity in sysfs is created and removed without ever having been made completely visible. In SCSI this is triggered by removing a device while it's initialising. The problem appears to be that because it was never made visible in sysfs, the sysfs dentry has a null d_inode which oopses when a reference is made to it. The solution is simply to check d_inode and assume the object was never made visible (and thus doesn't need deleting) if it's NULL. (akpm: possibly a stopgap for 2.6.13 scsi problems. May not be the long-term fix) Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com> Cc: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-07-29[PATCH] sysfs: fix sysfs_setattrManeesh Soni
o sysfs_dirent's s_mode field should also be updated in sysfs_setattr(), else there could be inconsistency in the two fields. s_mode is used while ->readdir so as not to bring in the inode to cache.

2005-06-23[PATCH] remove duplicate get_dentry functions in various placesChristoph Hellwig
Various filesystem drivers have grown a get_dentry() function that's a duplicate of lookup_one_len, except that it doesn't take a maximum length argument and doesn't check for \0 or / in the passed in filename. Switch all these places to use lookup_one_len.

2005-06-20[PATCH] sysfs-iattr: set inode attributesManeesh Soni
o Following patch sets the attributes for newly allocated inodes for sysfs objects. If the object has non-default attributes, inode attributes are set as saved in sysfs_dirent->s_iattr, pointer to struct iattr.

2005-06-20[PATCH] sysfs-iattr: add sysfs_setattrManeesh Soni
o This adds ->i_op->setattr VFS method for sysfs inodes. The changed attribues are saved in the persistent sysfs_dirent structure as a pointer to struct iattr. The struct iattr is allocated only for those sysfs_dirent's for which default attributes are getting changed. Thanks to Jon Smirl for this suggestion.

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!
