From 035ed7a49447bc8e15d4d9316fc6a359b2d94333 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Maier Date: Sun, 22 Oct 2006 19:17:47 +0200 Subject: sysfs: sysfs_write_file() writes zero terminated data since most of the files in sysfs are text files, it would be nice, if the "store" function called during sysfs_write_file() gets a zero terminated string / data. The current implementation seems not to ensure this. (But only if it is the first time the zeroed buffer page is allocated.) So the buffer can be scanned by sscanf() easily, for example. This patch simply sets a \0 char behind the data in buffer->page.

Provide a function device_move() to move a device to a new parent device. Add auxilliary functions kobject_move() and sysfs_move_dir(). kobject_move() generates a new uevent of type KOBJ_MOVE, containing the previous path (DEVPATH_OLD) in addition to the usual values. For this, a new interface kobject_uevent_env() is created that allows to add further environmental data to the uevent at the kobject layer.
