      sysfs: add parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in .read/.write methods for sysfs binary attributes · 91a69029
      Zhang Rui 提交于
      Well, first of all, I don't want to change so many files either.
      
      What I do:
      Adding a new parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in the
      .read/.write methods for the sysfs binary attributes.
      
      In fact, only the four lines change in fs/sysfs/bin.c and
      include/linux/sysfs.h do the real work.
      But I have to update all the files that use binary attributes
      to make them compatible with the new .read and .write methods.
      I'm not sure if I missed any. :(
      
      Why I do this:
      For a sysfs attribute, we can get a pointer pointing to the
      struct attribute in the .show/.store method,
      while we can't do this for the binary attributes.
      I don't know why this is different, but this does make it not
      so handy to use the binary attributes as the regular ones.
      So I think this patch is reasonable. :)
      
      Who benefits from it:
      The patch that exposes ACPI tables in sysfs
      requires such an improvement.
      All the table binary attributes share the same .read method.
      Parameter "struct bin_attribute *" is used to get
      the table signature and instance number which are used to
      distinguish different ACPI table binary attributes.
      
      Without this parameter, we need to offer different .read methods
      for different ACPI table binary attributes.
      This is impossible as there are various ACPI tables on different
      platforms, and we don't know what they are until they are loaded.

      sysfs: implement sysfs_get_dentry() · 53e0ae92
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Some sysfs operations require dentry and inode.  sysfs_get_dentry()
      looks up and gets dentry for the specified sysfs_dirent.  It finds the
      first ancestor with dentry attached and starts looking up dentries
      from there.
      
      Looking up from the nearest ancestor is necessary to support shadowed
      directories because we can't reliably lookup dentry for one of the
      shadows.  Dentries for each shadow will be pinned in memory such that
      they can serve as the starting point for dentry lookup.

      sysfs: restructure add/remove paths and fix inode update · fb6896da
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      The original add/remove code had the following problems.
      
      * parent's timestamps are updated on dentry instantiation.  this is
        incorrect with reclaimable files.
      
      * updating parent's timestamps isn't synchronized.
      
      * parent nlink update assumes the inode is accessible which won't be
        true once directory dentries are made reclaimable.
      
      This patch restructures add/remove paths to resolve the above
      problems.  Add/removal are done in the following steps.
      
      1. sysfs_addrm_start() : acquire locks including sysfs_mutex and other
         resources.
      
      2-a. sysfs_add_one() : add new sd.  linking the new sd into the
           children list is caller's responsibility.
      
      2-b. sysfs_remove_one() : remove a sd.  unlinking the sd from the
           children list is caller's responsibility.
      
      3. sysfs_addrm_finish() : release all resources and clean up.
      
      Steps 2-a and/or 2-b can be repeated multiple times.
      
      Parent's inode is looked up during sysfs_addrm_start().  If available
      (always at the moment), it's pinned and nlink is updated as sd's are
      added and removed.  Timestamps are updated during finish if any sd has
      been added or removed.  If parent's inode is not available during
      start, sysfs_mutex ensures that parent inode is not created till
      add/remove is complete.
      
      All the complexity is contained inside the helper functions.
      Especially, dentry/inode handling is properly hidden from the rest of
      sysfs which now mostly operate on sysfs_dirents.  As an added bonus,
      codes which use these helpers to add and remove sysfs_dirents are now
      more structured and simpler.

      sysfs: slim down sysfs_dirent->s_active · 8619f979
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Make sysfs_dirent->s_active an atomic_t instead of rwsem.  This
      reduces the size of sysfs_dirent from 136 to 104 on 64bit and from 76
      to 60 on 32bit with lock debugging turned off.  With lock debugging
      turned on the reduction is much larger.
      
      s_active starts at zero and each active reference increments s_active.
      Putting a reference decrements s_active.  Deactivation subtracts
      SD_DEACTIVATED_BIAS which is currently INT_MIN and assumed to be small
      enough to make s_active negative.  If s_active is negative,
      sysfs_get() no longer grants new references.  Deactivation succeeds
      immediately if there is no active user; otherwise, it waits using a
      completion for the last put.
      
      Due to the removal of lockdep tricks, this change makes things less
      trickier in release_sysfs_dirent().  As all the complexity is
      contained in three s_active functions, I think it's more readable this
      way.

      sysfs: use iget_locked() instead of new_inode() · 8312a8d7
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      After dentry is reclaimed, sysfs always used to allocate new dentry
      and inode if the file is accessed again.  This causes problem with
      operations which only pin the inode.  For example, if inotify watch is
      added to a sysfs file and the dentry for the file is reclaimed, the
      next update event creates new dentry and new inode making the inotify
      watch miss all the events from there on.
      
      This patch fixes it by using iget_locked() instead of new_inode().
      sysfs_new_inode() is renamed to sysfs_get_inode() and inode is
      initialized iff the inode is newly allocated.  sysfs_instantiate() is
      responsible for unlocking new inodes.

      sysfs: implement sysfs_dirent active reference and immediate disconnect · 0ab66088
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      sysfs: implement sysfs_dirent active reference and immediate disconnect
      
      Opening a sysfs node references its associated kobject, so userland
      can arbitrarily prolong lifetime of a kobject which complicates
      lifetime rules in drivers.  This patch implements active reference and
      makes the association between kobject and sysfs immediately breakable.
      
      Now each sysfs_dirent has two reference counts - s_count and s_active.
      s_count is a regular reference count which guarantees that the
      containing sysfs_dirent is accessible.  As long as s_count reference
      is held, all sysfs internal fields in sysfs_dirent are accessible
      including s_parent and s_name.
      
      The newly added s_active is active reference count.  This is acquired
      by invoking sysfs_get_active() and it's the caller's responsibility to
      ensure sysfs_dirent itself is accessible (should be holding s_count
      one way or the other).  Dereferencing sysfs_dirent to access objects
      out of sysfs proper requires active reference.  This includes access
      to the associated kobjects, attributes and ops.
      
      The active references can be drained and denied by calling
      sysfs_deactivate().  All active sysfs_dirents must be deactivated
      after deletion but before the default reference is dropped.  This
      enables immediate disconnect of sysfs nodes.  Once a sysfs_dirent is
      deleted, it won't access any entity external to sysfs proper.
      
      Because attr/bin_attr ops access both the node itself and its parent
      for kobject, they need to hold active references to both.
      sysfs_get/put_active_two() helpers are provided to help grabbing both
      references.  Parent's is acquired first and released last.
      
      Unlike other operations, mmapped area lingers on after mmap() is
      finished and the module implement implementing it and kobj need to
      stay referenced till all the mapped pages are gone.  This is
      accomplished by holding one set of active references to the bin_attr
      and its parent if there have been any mmap during lifetime of an
      openfile.  The references are dropped when the openfile is released.
      
      This change makes sysfs lifetime rules independent from both kobject's
      and module's.  It not only fixes several race conditions caused by
      sysfs not holding onto the proper module when referencing kobject, but

      sysfs: reimplement symlink using sysfs_dirent tree · 2b29ac25
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      sysfs symlink is implemented by referencing dentry and kobject from
      sysfs_dirent - symlink entry references kobject, dentry is used to
      walk the tree.  This complicates object lifetimes rules and is
      dangerous - for example, there is no way to tell to which module the
      target of a symlink belongs and referencing that kobject can make it
      linger after the module is gone.
      
      This patch reimplements symlink using only sysfs_dirent tree.  sd for
      a symlink points and holds reference to the target sysfs_dirent and
      all walking is done using sysfs_dirent tree.  Simpler and safer.

      sysfs: implement kobj_sysfs_assoc_lock · aecdceda
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      kobj->dentry can go away anytime unless the user controls when the
      associated sysfs node is deleted.  This patch implements
      kobj_sysfs_assoc_lock which protects kobj->dentry.  This will be used
      to maintain kobj based API when converting sysfs to use sysfs_dirent
      tree instead of dentry/kobject.
      
      Note that this lock belongs to kobject/driver-model not sysfs.  Once
      sysfs is converted to not use kobject in its interface, this can be
      removed from sysfs.
      
      This is in preparation of object reference simplification.

      sysfs: make sysfs_dirent->s_element a union · 3e519038
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Make sd->s_element a union of sysfs_elem_{dir|symlink|attr|bin_attr}
      and rename it to s_elem.  This is to achieve...
      
      * some level of type checking : changing symlink to point to
        sysfs_dirent instead of kobject is much safer and less painful now.
      * easier / standardized dereferencing
      * allow sysfs_elem_* to contain more than one entry
      
      Where possible, pointer is obtained by directly deferencing from sd
      instead of going through other entities.  This reduces dependencies to
      dentry, inode and kobject.  to_attr() and to_bin_attr() are unused now
      and removed.
      
      This is in preparation of object reference simplification.

      sysfs: add sysfs_dirent->s_name · 0c096b50
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Add s_name to sysfs_dirent.  This is to further reduce dependency to
      the associated dentry.  Name is copied for directories and symlinks
      but not for attributes.
      
      Where possible, name dereferences are converted to use sd->s_name.
      sysfs_symlink->link_name and sysfs_get_name() are unused now and
      removed.
      
      This change allows symlink to be implemented using sysfs_dirent tree
      proper, which is the last remaining dentry-dependent sysfs walk.

      sysfs: add sysfs_dirent->s_parent · 13b3086d
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Add sysfs_dirent->s_parent.  With this patch, each sd points to and
      holds a reference to its parent.  This allows walking sysfs tree
      without referencing sd->s_dentry which can go away anytime if the user
      doesn't control when it's deleted.
      
      sd->s_parent is initialized and parent is referenced in
      sysfs_attach_dirent().  Reference to parent is released when the sd is
      released, so as long as reference to a sd is held, s_parent can be
      followed.
      
      dentry walk in sysfs_readdir() is convereted to s_parent walk.
      
      This will be used to reimplement symlink such that it uses only
      sysfs_dirent tree.

      sysfs: consolidate sysfs_dirent creation functions · a26cd722
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently there are four functions to create sysfs_dirent -
      __sysfs_new_dirent(), sysfs_new_dirent(), __sysfs_make_dirent() and
      sysfs_make_dirent().  Other than sysfs_make_dirent(), no function has
      two users if calls to implement other functions are excluded.
      
      This patch consolidates sysfs_dirent creation functions into the
      following two.
      
      * sysfs_new_dirent() : allocate and initialize
      * sysfs_attach_dirent() : attach to sysfs_dirent hierarchy and/or
      			  associate with dentry
      
      This simplifies interface and gives callers more flexibility.  This is
      in preparation of object reference simplification.
