This patch removes the kobject, and a few other driver-core-only fields out of struct driver and into the driver core only. Now drivers can be safely create on the stack or statically (like they currently are.) Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

The iseries driver wants to hang kobjects off of its driver, so, to preserve backwards compatibility, we need to add a call to the driver core to allow future changes to work properly. Hopefully no one uses this function in the future and the iseries_veth driver authors come to their senses so I can remove this hack...

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. Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

This allows an easier way to get to the device klist associated with a struct bus_type (you have three to choose from...) This will make it easier to move these fields to be dynamic in a future patch. The only user of this is the PCI core which horribly abuses this interface to rearrange the order of the pci devices. This should be done using the existing bus device walking functions, but that's left for future patches. Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

This patch reorganizes the way suspend and resume notifications are sent to drivers. The major changes are that now the PM core acquires every device semaphore before calling the methods, and calls to device_add() during suspends will fail, while calls to device_del() during suspends will block. It also provides a way to safely remove a suspended device with the help of the PM core, by using the device_pm_schedule_removal() callback introduced specifically for this purpose, and updates two drivers (msr and cpuid) that need to use it.

This changes the uevent buffer functions to use a struct instead of a long list of parameters. It does no longer require the caller to do the proper buffer termination and size accounting, which is currently wrong in some places.

This defines a dev_vdbg() call, which is enabled with -DVERBOSE_DEBUG. When enabled, dev_vdbg() acts just like dev_dbg(). When disabled, it is a NOP ... just like dev_dbg() without -DDEBUG. The specific code was moved out of a USB patch, but lots of drivers have similar support. That is, code can now be written to use an additional level of debug output, selected at compile time. Many driver authors have found this idiom to be very useful. A typical usage model is for "normal" debug messages to focus on fault paths and not be very "chatty", so that those messages can be left on during normal operation without much of a performance or syslog load. On the other hand "verbose" messages would be noisy enough that they wouldn't normally be enabled; they might even affect timings enough to change system or driver behavior.

We've had various reports of some legacy "probe the hardware" style platform drivers having nasty problems with hotplug support. The core issue is that those legacy drivers don't fully conform to the driver model. They assume a role that should be the responsibility of infrastructure code: creating device nodes. The "modprobe" step in hotplugging relies on drivers to have split those roles into different modules. The lack of this split causes the problems. When a driver creates nodes for devices that don't exist (sending a hotplug event), then exits (aborting one modprobe) before the "modprobe $MODALIAS" step completes (by failing, since it's in the middle of a modprobe), the result can be an endless loop of modprobe invocations ... badness. This fix uses the newish per-device flag controlling issuance of "add" events. (A previous version of this patch used a per-device "driver can hotplug" flag, which only scrubbed $MODALIAS from the environment rather than suppressing the entire hotplug event.) It also shrinks that flag to one bit, saving a word in "struct device". So the net of this patch is removing some nasty failures with legacy drivers, while retaining hotplug capability for the majority of platform drivers.

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.

Make multithreaded probing work per subsystem instead of per driver. It doesn't make much sense to probe the same device for multiple drivers in parallel (after all, only one driver can bind to the device). Instead, create a probing thread for each device that probes the drivers one after another. Also make the decision to use multi-threaded probe per bus instead of per device and adapt the pci code.

We get two per-bus sysfs files: ls-l /sys/subsystem/usb drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 2007-02-16 16:42 devices drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 0 2007-02-16 14:55 drivers -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 2007-02-16 16:42 drivers_autoprobe --w------- 1 root root 4096 2007-02-16 16:42 drivers_probe The flag "drivers_autoprobe" controls the behavior of the bus to bind devices by default, or just initialize the device and leave it alone. The command "drivers_probe" accepts a bus_id and the bus tries to bind a driver to this device. Systems who want to control the driver binding with udev, switch off the bus initiated probing: echo 0 > /sys/subsystem/usb/drivers_autoprobe echo 0 > /sys/subsystem/pcmcia/drivers_autoprobe ... and initiate the probing with udev rules like: ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{subsystem/drivers_probe}="$kernel" ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="pcmcia", ATTR{subsystem/drivers_probe}="$kernel" ... Custom driver binding can happen in earlier rules by something like: ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", \ ATTRS{idVendor}=="1234", ATTRS{idProduct}=="5678" \ ATTR{subsystem/drivers/<custom-driver>/bind}="$kernel" This is intended to solve the modprobe.conf mess with "install-rules", custom bind/unbind-scripts and all the weird things people invented over the years. It should also provide the functionality "libusual" was supposed to do. With udev, one can just write a udev rule to drive all USB-disks at the third port of USB-hub by the "ub" driver, and everything else by usb-storage. One can also instruct udev to bind different wireless drivers to identical cards - just selected by the pcmcia slot-number, and whatever ... To use the mentioned rules, it needs udev version 106, to be able to write ATTR{}="$kernel" to sysfs files. Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

This patch (as868) adds a helper routine for device drivers that need to set up a callback to perform some action in a different process's context. This is intended for use by attribute methods that want to unregister themselves or their parent device. Attribute method calls are mutually exclusive with unregistration, so such actions cannot be taken directly. Two attribute methods are converted to use the new helper routine: one for SCSI device deletion and one for System/390 ccwgroup devices.

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(), pcim_iomap(), pcim_iounmap() Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NJeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

Both types create a different set of attributes, but belong to the same subsystem.
