      Driver core: driver_find() drops reference before returning · fde25a9b
      Alan Stern 提交于
      As part of the removal of get_driver()/put_driver(), this patch
      (as1510) changes driver_find(); it now drops the reference it acquires
      before returning.  The patch also adjusts all the callers of
      driver_find() to remove the now unnecessary calls to put_driver().
      
      In addition, the patch adds a warning to driver_find(): Callers must
      make sure the driver they are searching for does not get unloaded
      while they are using it.  This has always been the case; driver_find()
      has never prevented a driver from being unregistered or unloaded.
      Hence the patch will not introduce any new bugs.  The existing callers
      all seem to be okay in this respect, however I don't understand the
      video drivers well enough to be certain about them.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      driver core: fix small mem leak in driver_add_kobj() · d478376c
      Jesper Juhl 提交于
      The Coverity checker spotted that we leak the storage allocated to 'name' in
      int driver_add_kobj().  The leak looks legit to me - this is the code :
      
      int driver_add_kobj(struct device_driver *drv, struct kobject *kobj,
                          const char *fmt, ...)
      {
              va_list args;
              char *name;
              int ret;
      
              va_start(args, fmt);
              name = kvasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, fmt, args);
              ^^^^^^^^ This dynamically allocates space...
      
              va_end(args);
      
              if (!name)
                      return -ENOMEM;
      
              return kobject_add(kobj, &drv->p->kobj, "%s", name);
      	^^^^^^^^ This neglects to free the space allocated
      }
      
      Inside kobject_add() a copy of 'name' will be made and used.  As far as I can
      see, Coverity is correct in flagging this as a leak, but I'd like some
      configmation before the patch is applied.
      
      This should fix it.

      Driver core: remove unneeded completion from driver release path · 74e9f5fa
      Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于
      The completion in the driver release path is due to ancient history in
      the _very_ early 2.5 days when we were not tracking the module reference
      count of attributes.  It is not needed at all and can be removed.
      
      Note, we now have an empty release function for the driver structure.
      This is due to the fact that drivers are statically allocated in the
      system at this point in time, something which I want to change in the
      future.  But remember, drivers are really code, which is reference
      counted by the module, unlike devices, which are data and _must_ be
      reference counted properly in order to work correctly.

      Driver core: Remove unneeded routines from driver core · 81107bf5
      Alan Stern 提交于
      This patch (as783) simplifies the driver core slightly by removing four
      unnecessary _get and _put methods.
      
      It is vital that when a driver is removed from its bus's klist of
      registered drivers, or when a device is removed from a driver's klist
      of bound devices, that the klist updates complete synchronously.
      Otherwise the kernel might try binding an unregistered driver to a
      newly-registered device, or adding a device to the klist for a new
      driver before it has been removed from the old driver's klist.
      
      Since the removals must be synchronous, they don't need to update any
      reference counts.  Hence the _get and _put methods can be dispensed
      with.

      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!
