      PNP: stop using the subsystem rwsem · 75f1115c
      Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于
      The rwsem is not used to protect anything, so the use of it by the PNP
      subsystem isn't really useful, and it's doubtful if it really did anything or
      not.  So I've removed it.

      The driver core stopped using the rwsem a long time ago, yet the USB
      core still grabbed the lock, thinking it protected something.  This

      Driver core: remove unneeded completion from driver release path · 74e9f5fa
      Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于
      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.

      Driver core: udev triggered device-<>driver binding · b8c5cec2
      Kay Sievers 提交于
      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.

      dev_printk and new-style class devices · a456b702
      Jean Delvare 提交于
      As the new-style class devices (as opposed to old-style struct
      class_device) are becoming more widely used, I noticed that the
      dev_printk-based functions are not working properly with these.
      New-style class devices have no driver nor bus, almost by definition,
      and as a result dev_driver_string(), which is used as the first
      parameter of dev_printk, resolves to an empty string. This causes
      entries like the following to show in my logs:
      
       i2c-2: adapter [SMBus stub driver] registered
      
      Notice the unaesthetical leading whitespace. In order to fix this
      problem, I suggest that we extend dev_driver_string to deal with
      new-style class devices:

      Change default dirty-writeback limits · 07db59bd
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Do this really early in the 2.6.22-rc series, so that we'll get
      feedback.  And don't change by half measures.  Just cut the default
      dirty limit to a quarter of what it was, and see if anybody even
      notices.
