* Driver core: coding style fixesGreg Kroah-Hartman2008-01-25
| | | | | | | Fix up a number of coding style issues in the drivers/base/ directory that have annoyed me over the years. checkpatch.pl is now very happy. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* driver core: fix build with SYSFS=nRandy Dunlap2008-01-24

* Driver core: use LIST_HEAD instead of call to INIT_LIST_HEAD in __initDenis Cheng2008-01-24

* Driver core: move the static kobject out of struct driverGreg Kroah-Hartman2008-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | 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: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* Driver core: move the driver specific module code into the driver coreGreg Kroah-Hartman2008-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The module driver specific code should belong in the driver core, not in the kernel/ directory. So move this code. This is done in preparation for some struct device_driver rework that should be confined to the driver core code only. This also lets us keep from exporting these functions, as no external code should ever be calling it. Thanks to Andrew Morton for the !CONFIG_MODULES fix.

* driver core: remove fields from struct bus_typeGreg Kroah-Hartman2008-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* kset: convert /sys/devices to use kset_createGreg Kroah-Hartman2008-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | Dynamically create the kset instead of declaring it statically. We also rename devices_subsys to devices_kset to catch all users of the variable. Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* Driver core: remove get_bus()Greg Kroah-Hartman2007-10-12
| | | | | | | | | | get_bus() should not be globally visable as it is not used by anything other than drivers/base/bus.c. This patch removes the visability of it, and renames it to match all of the other *_get() functions in the kernel. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* Driver core: remove put_bus()Greg Kroah-Hartman2007-10-12
| | | | | | | | | | put_bus() should not be globally visable as it is not used by anything other than drivers/base/bus.c. This patch removes the visability of it, and renames it to match all of the other *_put() functions in the kernel. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* Driver core: fix devres_release_all() return valueAdrian Bunk2007-07-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Every file should include the headers containing the prototypes for it's global functions. Since the GNU C compiler is now able to detect that the function prototype of devres_release_all() in the header and the actual function disagree regarding the return value, this patch also fixes this bug.

* remove "struct subsystem" as it is no longer neededGreg Kroah-Hartman2007-05-02
| | | | | | | | | | | We need to work on cleaning up the relationship between kobjects, ksets and ktypes. The removal of 'struct subsystem' is the first step of this, especially as it is not really needed at all. Thanks to Kay for fixing the bugs in this patch.

* driver core: don't fail attaching the device if it cannot be boundCornelia Huck2007-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't fail bus_attach_device() if the device cannot be bound. If dev->driver has been specified, reset it to NULL if device_bind_driver() failed and add the device as an unbound device. As a result, bus_attach_device() now cannot fail, and we can remove some checking from device_add(). Also remove an unneeded check in bus_rescan_devices_helper().

* devres: device resource managementTejun Heo2007-02-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

* [PATCH] drivers/base - fix sparse warningsBen Dooks2005-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are a number of sparse warnings from the latest sparse snapshot being generated from the drivers/base build. The main culprits are due to the initialisation functions not being declared in a header file. Also, the firmware.c file should include <linux/device.h> to get the prototype of firmware_register() and firmware_unregister(). This patch moves the init function declerations from the init.c file to the base.h, and ensures it is included in all the relevant c sources. It also adds <linux/device.h> to the included headers for firmware.c. The patch does not solve all the sparse errors generated, but reduces the count significantly. drivers/base/core.c:161:1: warning: symbol 'devices_subsys' was not declared.

* [PATCH] driver core: Add the ability to bind drivers to devices from userspaceGreg Kroah-Hartman2005-06-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a single file, "bind", to the sysfs directory of every driver registered with the driver core. To bind a device to a driver, write the bus id of the device you wish to bind to that specific driver to the "bind" file (remember to not add a trailing \n). If that bus id matches a device on that bus, and it does not currently have a driver bound to it, the probe sequence will be initiated with that driver and device. Note, this requires that the driver itself be willing and able to accept that device (usually through a device id type table). This patch does not make it possible to override the driver's id table.

* [PATCH] Move device/driver code to drivers/base/dd.cmochel@digitalimplant.org2005-06-20
| | | | | | | | | | This relocates the driver binding/unbinding code to drivers/base/dd.c. This is done for two reasons: One, it's not code related to the bus_type itself; it uses some from that, some from devices, and some from drivers. And Two, it will make it easier to do some of the upcoming lock removal on that code.. Signed-off-by: Patrick Mochel <mochel@digitalimplant.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-16
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!
