    USB: make usbdevices export their device nodes instead of using a separate class · 9f8b17e6
    Kay Sievers 提交于
    o The "real" usb-devices export now a device node which can
      populate /dev/bus/usb.
    
    o The usb_device class is optional now and can be disabled in the
      kernel config. Major/minor of the "real" devices and class devices
      are the same.
    
    o The environment of the usb-device event contains DEVNUM and BUSNUM to
      help udev and get rid of the ugly udev rule we need for the class
      devices.
    
    o The usb-devices and usb-interfaces share the same bus, so I used
      the new "struct device_type" to let these devices identify
      themselves. This also removes the current logic of using a magic
      platform-pointer.
      The name of the device_type is also added to the environment
      which makes it easier to distinguish the different kinds of devices
      on the same subsystem.
    
      It looks like this:
        add@/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb2/2-1
        ACTION=add
        DEVPATH=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb2/2-1
        SUBSYSTEM=usb
        SEQNUM=1533
        MAJOR=189
        MINOR=131
        DEVTYPE=usb_device
        PRODUCT=46d/c03e/2000
        TYPE=0/0/0
        BUSNUM=002
        DEVNUM=004
    
    This udev rule works as a replacement for usb_device class devices:
      SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", \
        NAME="bus/usb/$env{BUSNUM}/$env{DEVNUM}", MODE="0644"
    
    Updated patch, which needs the device_type patches in Greg's tree.
    
    I also got a bugzilla assigned for this. :)
