      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: 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.

      [PATCH] sysfs: reinstate exclusion between method calls and attribute unregistration · e7b0d26a
      Alan Stern 提交于
      This patch (as869) reinstates the mutual exclusion between sysfs
      attribute method calls and attribute unregistration.  The
      previously-reported deadlocks have been fixed, and this exclusion is
      by far the simplest way to avoid races during driver unbinding.
      
      The check for orphaned read-buffers has been moved down slightly, so
      that the remainder of a partially-read buffer will still be available
      to userspace even after the attribute has been unregistered.

      [PATCH] sysfs and driver core: add callback helper, used by SCSI and S390 · d9a9cdfb
      Alan Stern 提交于
      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.

      [PATCH] sysfs: Allow sysfs attribute files to be pollable · 4508a7a7
      NeilBrown 提交于
      It works like this:
        Open the file
        Read all the contents.
        Call poll requesting POLLERR or POLLPRI (so select/exceptfds works)
        When poll returns,
           close the file and go to top of loop.
         or lseek to start of file and go back to the 'read'.
      
      Events are signaled by an object manager calling
         sysfs_notify(kobj, dir, attr);
      
      If the dir is non-NULL, it is used to find a subdirectory which
      contains the attribute (presumably created by sysfs_create_group).
      
      This has a cost of one int  per attribute, one wait_queuehead per kobject,
      one int per open file.
      
      The name "sysfs_notify" may be confused with the inotify
      functionality.  Maybe it would be nice to support inotify for sysfs
      attributes as well?
      
      This patch also uses sysfs_notify to allow /sys/block/md*/md/sync_action
      to be pollable

      [PATCH] inotify · 0eeca283
      Robert Love 提交于
      inotify is intended to correct the deficiencies of dnotify, particularly
      its inability to scale and its terrible user interface:
      
              * dnotify requires the opening of one fd per each directory
                that you intend to watch. This quickly results in too many
                open files and pins removable media, preventing unmount.
              * dnotify is directory-based. You only learn about changes to
                directories. Sure, a change to a file in a directory affects
                the directory, but you are then forced to keep a cache of
                stat structures.
              * dnotify's interface to user-space is awful.  Signals?
      
      inotify provides a more usable, simple, powerful solution to file change
      notification:
      
              * inotify's interface is a system call that returns a fd, not SIGIO.
      	  You get a single fd, which is select()-able.
              * inotify has an event that says "the filesystem that the item
                you were watching is on was unmounted."
              * inotify can watch directories or files.
      
      Inotify is currently used by Beagle (a desktop search infrastructure),
      Gamin (a FAM replacement), and other projects.
      
      See Documentation/filesystems/inotify.txt.

      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!
