2009-08-10sound: make OSS device number claiming optional and schedule its removalTejun Heo
If any OSS support is enabled, regardless of built-in or module, sound_core claims full OSS major number (that is, the old 0-255 region) to trap open attempts and request sound modules using custom module aliases. This feature is redundant as chrdev already has such mechanism. This preemptive claiming prevents alternative OSS implementation. The custom module aliases are scheduled to be removed and the previous patch made soundcore emit the standard chrdev aliases too to help transition. This patch schedule the feature for removal in a year and makes it optional so that developers and distros can try new things in the meantime without rebuilding the kernel. The pre-claiming can be turned off by using SOUND_OSS_CORE_PRECLAIM and/or kernel parameter soundcore.preclaim_oss. As this allows sound minors to be individually grabbed by other users, this patch updates sound_insert_unit() such that if registering individual device region fails, it tries the next available slot. For details on removal plan, please read the entry added by this patch in feature-removal-schedule.txt .

2009-08-10sound: request char-major-* module aliases for missing OSS devicesTejun Heo
Till now missing OSS devices emitted sound-slot/service-* module alises instead of the standard char-major-* if a missing device number is opened if soundcore is loaded. The custom module aliases don't have any inherent benefit than backward compatibility. sound-slot/service-* module aliases is scheduled to be removed and to help the transition this patch makes soundcore emit the standard module alises along with the custom ones.

2008-09-09ALSA: fix section mismatch in the sound_coreKrzysztof Helt
The __exit cleanup_oss_soundcore() is called from the __init init_soundcore(). This causes section mismatch and breaks kernel's linking on sparc64. Remove the __exit attribute from the cleanup_oss_soundcore().

2008-08-29sound: make OSS sound core optionalTejun Heo
sound/sound_core.c implements soundcore.ko and contains two parts - sound_class which is shared by both ALSA and OSS and device redirection support for OSS. It's always compiled when any sound support is enabled although it's necessary only when OSS (the actual one or emulation) is enabled. This is slightly wasteful and as device redirection always registers character device region for major 14, it prevents alternative implementation. This patch introduces a new config SOUND_OSS_CORE which is selected iff OSS support is actually necessary and build the OSS core part conditionally. If OSS is disabled, soundcore merely contains sound_class but leaving it that way seems to be the simplest approach as otherwise sound_class should be in ALSA core file if OSS is disabled but should be in soundcore if OSS is enabled. Also, there's also the user confusion factor. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Jaroslav Kysela <perex@perex.cz>

2007-02-12[PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 9Arjan van de Ven
Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to these shared resources.

2006-12-01Driver core: convert sound core to use struct deviceGreg Kroah-Hartman
Converts from using struct "class_device" to "struct device" making everything show up properly in /sys/devices/ with symlinks from the /sys/class directory. It also makes the struct sound_card to show up as a "real" device where all the different sound class devices are placed as childs and different card attribute files can hang off of. /sys/class/sound is still a flat directory, but the symlink targets of all devices belonging to the same card, point the the /sys/devices tree below the new card device object.

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!
