      WorkStruct: Pass the work_struct pointer instead of context data · 65f27f38
      David Howells 提交于
      Pass the work_struct pointer to the work function rather than context data.
      The work function can use container_of() to work out the data.
      
      For the cases where the container of the work_struct may go away the moment the
      pending bit is cleared, it is made possible to defer the release of the
      structure by deferring the clearing of the pending bit.
      
      To make this work, an extra flag is introduced into the management side of the
      work_struct.  This governs auto-release of the structure upon execution.
      
      Ordinarily, the work queue executor would release the work_struct for further
      scheduling or deallocation by clearing the pending bit prior to jumping to the
      work function.  This means that, unless the driver makes some guarantee itself
      that the work_struct won't go away, the work function may not access anything
      else in the work_struct or its container lest they be deallocated..  This is a
      problem if the auxiliary data is taken away (as done by the last patch).
      
      However, if the pending bit is *not* cleared before jumping to the work
      function, then the work function *may* access the work_struct and its container
      with no problems.  But then the work function must itself release the
      work_struct by calling work_release().
      
      In most cases, automatic release is fine, so this is the default.  Special
      initiators exist for the non-auto-release case (ending in _NAR).

      WorkStruct: Separate delayable and non-delayable events. · 52bad64d
      David Howells 提交于
      Separate delayable work items from non-delayable work items be splitting them
      into a separate structure (delayed_work), which incorporates a work_struct and
      the timer_list removed from work_struct.
      
      The work_struct struct is huge, and this limits it's usefulness.  On a 64-bit
      architecture it's nearly 100 bytes in size.  This reduces that by half for the
      non-delayable type of event.

      The root cause is the device struct is initialized twice.
      
      If the device is allocated dynamically by platform_device_alloc,
      platform_device_alloc will initialize struct device, then,
      platform_device_add should be used to register the device.
      
      The difference between platform_device_register and platform_device_add is
      platform_device_register will initiate the device while platform_device_add
      won't.

      [PATCH] Fix up mmap_kmem · 99a10a60
      Franck Bui-Huu 提交于
      vma->vm_pgoff is an pfn _offset_ relatif to the begining
      of the memory start. The previous code was doing at first:
      
      	vma->vm_pgoff << PAGE_SHIFT
      
      which results into a wrong physical address since some
      platforms have a physical mem start that can be different
      from 0. After that the previous call __pa() on this
      wrong physical address, however __pa() is used to convert
      a _virtual_ address into a physical one.
      
      This patch rewrites this convertion. It calculates the
      pfn of PAGE_OFFSET which is the pfn of the mem start
      then it adds the vma->vm_pgoff to it.
      
      It also uses virt_to_phys() instead of __pa() since the
      latter shouldn't be used by drivers.
