      PM: Introduce core framework for run-time PM of I/O devices (rev. 17) · 5e928f77
      由 Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于 
      Introduce a core framework for run-time power management of I/O
devices.  Add device run-time PM fields to 'struct dev_pm_info'
and device run-time PM callbacks to 'struct dev_pm_ops'.  Introduce
a run-time PM workqueue and define some device run-time PM helper
functions at the core level.  Document all these things.

Special thanks to Alan Stern for his help with the design and
multiple detailed reviews of the pereceding versions of this patch
and to Magnus Damm for testing feedback.

      driver synchronization: make scsi_wait_scan more advanced · d4d5291c
      由 Arjan van de Ven 提交于 
      There is currently only one way for userspace to say "wait for my storage
device to get ready for the modules I just loaded": to load the
scsi_wait_scan module. Expectations of userspace are that once this
module is loaded, all the (storage) devices for which the drivers
were loaded before the module load are present.

Now, there are some issues with the implementation, and the async
stuff got caught in the middle of this: The existing code only
waits for the scsy async probing to finish, but it did not take
into account at all that probing might not have begun yet.
(Russell ran into this problem on his computer and the fix works for him)

This patch fixes this more thoroughly than the previous "fix", which
had some bad side effects (namely, for kernel code that wanted to wait for
the scsi scan it would also do an async sync, which would deadlock if you did
it from async context already.. there's a report about that on lkml):
The patch makes the module first wait for all device driver probes, and then it
will wait for the scsi parallel scan to finish.

      device model: Do a quickcheck for driver binding before doing an expensive check · 6cd49586
      由 Arjan van de Ven 提交于 
      This patch adds a quick check for the driver<->device match before
taking the locks and doin gthe expensive checks. Taking the lock hurts
in asynchronous boot context where the device lock gets hit; one of the
init functions takes the lock and goes to do an expensive hardware init;
the other init functions walk the same PCI list and get stuck on the
lock as a result.

For the common case, we can know there's no chance whatsoever of a match
if the device isn't in the drivers ID table... so this patch does that
check as a best-effort-avoid-the-lock approach.

Bootcharts for before and after can be seen at
http://www.fenrus.org/before.svg
http://www.fenrus.org/after.svg

Note the long time "agp_ali_init" takes in the first graph; my laptop
doesn't even have an ALI chip in it!  (the bootgraphs look a bit
dissimilar, but that's the point, the first one has a bunch of arbitrary
delays in it that cause it to look very different)

This reduces my kernel boot time by about 20%

      Driver core: fix race in __device_release_driver · ef2c5174
      由 Alan Stern 提交于 
      This patch (as1013) was suggested by David Woodhouse; it fixes a race
in the driver core.  If a device is unregistered at the same time as
its driver is unloaded, the driver's code pages may be unmapped while
the remove method is still running.  The calls to get_driver() and
put_driver() were intended to prevent this, but they don't work if the
driver's module count has already dropped to 0.

Instead, the patch keeps the device on the driver's list until after
the remove method has returned.  This forces the necessary
synchronization to occur.

      The driver core debugging messages are a mess.  This provides a unified

      struct bus_type is static everywhere in the kernel.  This moves the
kobject in the structure out of it, and a bunch of other private only to
the driver core fields are now moved to a private structure.  This lets
us dynamically create the backing kobject properly and gives us the
chance to be able to document to users exactly how to use the struct
bus_type as there are no fields they can improperly access.

Thanks to Kay for the build fixes on this patch.

      devres: device resource management · 9ac7849e
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      Implement device resource management, in short, devres.  A device
driver can allocate arbirary size of devres data which is associated
with a release function.  On driver detach, release function is
invoked on the devres data, then, devres data is freed.

devreses are typed by associated release functions.  Some devreses are
better represented by single instance of the type while others need
multiple instances sharing the same release function.  Both usages are
supported.

devreses can be grouped using devres group such that a device driver
can easily release acquired resources halfway through initialization
or selectively release resources (e.g. resources for port 1 out of 4
ports).

This patch adds devres core including documentation and the following
managed interfaces.

* alloc/free	: devm_kzalloc(), devm_kzfree()
* IO region	: devm_request_region(), devm_release_region()
* IRQ		: devm_request_irq(), devm_free_irq()
* DMA		: dmam_alloc_coherent(), dmam_free_coherent(),
		  dmam_declare_coherent_memory(), dmam_pool_create(),
		  dmam_pool_destroy()
* PCI		: pcim_enable_device(), pcim_pin_device(), pci_is_managed()
* iomap		: devm_ioport_map(), devm_ioport_unmap(), devm_ioremap(),
		  devm_ioremap_nocache(), devm_iounmap(), pcim_iomap_table(),

      Driver core: add notification of bus events · 116af378
      由 Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于 
      I finally did as you suggested and added the notifier to the struct
bus_type itself. There are still problems to be expected is something
attaches to a bus type where the code can hook in different struct
device sub-classes (which is imho a big bogosity but I won't even try to
argue that case now) but it will solve nicely a number of issues I've
had so far.

That also means that clients interested in registering for such
notifications have to do it before devices are added and after bus types
are registered. Fortunately, most bus types that matter for the various
usage scenarios I have in mind are registerd at postcore_initcall time,
which means I have a really nice spot at arch_initcall time to add my
notifiers.

There are 4 notifications provided. Device being added (before hooked to
the bus) and removed (failure of previous case or after being unhooked
from the bus), along with driver being bound to a device and about to be
unbound.

The usage I have for these are:

 - The 2 first ones are used to maintain a struct device_ext that is
hooked to struct device.firmware_data. This structure contains for now a
pointer to the Open Firmware node related to the device (if any), the
NUMA node ID (for quick access to it) and the DMA operations pointers &
iommu table instance for DMA to/from this device. For bus types I own
(like IBM VIO or EBUS), I just maintain that structure directly from the
bus code when creating the devices. But for bus types managed by generic
code like PCI or platform (actually, of_platform which is a variation of
platform linked to Open Firmware device-tree), I need this notifier.

 - The other two ones have a completely different usage scenario. I have
cases where multiple devices and their drivers depend on each other. For
example, the IBM EMAC network driver needs to attach to a MAL DMA engine
which is a separate device, and a PHY interface which is also a separate
device. They are all of_platform_device's (well, about to be with my
upcoming patches) but there is no say in what precise order the core
will "probe" them and instanciate the various modules. The solution I
found for that is to have the drivers for emac to use multithread_probe,
and wait for a driver to be bound to the target MAL and PHY control
devices (the device-tree contains reference to the MAL and PHY interface
nodes, which I can then match to of_platform_devices). Right now, I've
been polling, but with that notifier, I can more cleanly wait (with a
timeout of course).

      [PATCH] drivers: wait for threaded probes between initcall levels · 735a7ffb
      由 Andrew Morton 提交于 
      The multithreaded-probing code has a problem: after one initcall level (eg,
core_initcall) has been processed, we will then start processing the next
level (postcore_initcall) while the kernel threads which are handling
core_initcall are still executing.  This breaks the guarantees which the
layered initcalls previously gave us.

IOW, we want to be multithreaded _within_ an initcall level, but not between
different levels.

Fix that up by causing the probing code to wait for all outstanding probes at
one level to complete before we start processing the next level.

      Driver core: Fix potential deadlock in driver core · f2eaae19
      由 Alan Stern 提交于 
      There is a potential deadlock in the driver core.  It boils down to
the fact that bus_remove_device() calls klist_remove() instead of
klist_del(), thereby waiting until the reference count of the
klist_node in the bus's klist of devices drops to 0.  The refcount
can't reach 0 so long as a modprobe process is trying to bind a new
driver to the device being removed, by calling __driver_attach().  The
problem is that __driver_attach() tries to acquire the device's
parent's semaphore, but the caller of bus_remove_device() is quite
likely to own that semaphore already.

It isn't sufficient just to replace klist_remove() with klist_del().
Doing so runs the risk that the device would remain on the bus's klist
of devices for some time, and so could be bound to another driver even
after it was unregistered.  What's needed is a new way to distinguish
whether or not a device is registered, based on a criterion other than
whether its klist_node is linked into the bus's klist of devices.  That
way driver binding can fail when the device is unregistered, even if
it is still linked into the klist.

This patch (as782) implements the solution, by adding a new bitflag to
indiate when a struct device is registered, by testing the flag before
allowing a driver to bind a device, and by changing the definition of
the device_is_registered() inline.

      Driver Core: add ability for drivers to do a threaded probe · d779249e
      由 Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于 
      This adds the infrastructure for drivers to do a threaded probe, and
waits at init time for all currently outstanding probes to complete.

A new kernel thread will be created when the probe() function for the
driver is called, if the multithread_probe bit is set in the driver
saying it can support this kind of operation.

I have tested this with USB and PCI, and it works, and shaves off a lot
of time in the boot process, but there are issues with finding root boot
disks, and some USB drivers assume that this can never happen, so it is
currently not enabled for any bus type.  Individual drivers can enable
this right now if they wish, and bus authors can selectivly turn it on
as well, once they determine that their subsystem will work properly
with it.

      [PATCH] Hold the device's parent's lock during probe and remove · bf74ad5b
      由 Alan Stern 提交于 
      This patch (as604) makes the driver core hold a device's parent's lock
as well as the device's lock during calls to the probe and remove
methods in a driver.  This facility is needed by USB device drivers,
owing to the peculiar way USB devices work:

	A device provides multiple interfaces, and drivers are bound
	to interfaces rather than to devices;

	Nevertheless a reset, reset-configuration, suspend, or resume
	affects the entire device and requires the caller to hold the
	lock for the device, not just a lock for one of the interfaces.

Since a USB driver's probe method is always called with the interface
lock held, the locking order rules (always lock parent before child)
prevent these methods from acquiring the device lock.  The solution
provided here is to call all probe and remove methods, for all devices
(not just USB), with the parent lock already acquired.

Although currently only the USB subsystem requires these changes, people
have mentioned in prior discussion that the overhead of acquiring an
extra semaphore in all the prove/remove sequences is not overly large.

Up to now, the USB core has been using its own set of private
semaphores.  A followup patch will remove them, relying entirely on the
device semaphores provided by the driver core.

The code paths affected by this patch are:

	device_add and device_del: The USB core already holds the parent
	lock, so no actual change is needed.

	driver_register and driver_unregister: The driver core will now
	lock both the parent and the device before probing or removing.

	driver_bind and driver_unbind (in sysfs): These routines will
	now lock both the parent and the device before binding or
	unbinding.

	bus_rescan_devices: The helper routine will lock the parent
	before probing a device.

I have not tested this patch for conflicts with other subsystems.  As
far as I can see, the only possibility of conflict would lie in the
bus_rescan_devices pathway, and it seems pretty remote.  Nevertheless,
it would be good for this to get a lot of testing in -mm.
