* PM / Driver Core: Kill dev_pm_ops platform warning for nowMagnus Damm2009-08-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 783ea7d4eeefe895f2731fe73ac951e94418927b (Driver Core: Rework platform suspend/resume, print warning) added a warning message printed for platform drivers that use the legacy PM callbacks rather than struct dev_pm_ops. Unfortunately, this resulted in some confusion and made some people try to convert drivers by replacing the old callbacks with struct dev_pm_ops in automatic way, which generally is not a good idea. Remove the platform device runtime dev_pm_ops warning for now, because it's annoying to users and it's not really necessary right now.

* | Free struct device in fw_dev_release()Catalin Marinas2009-07-08
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The f_dev in _request_firmware() is allocated via the fw_setup_device() and fw_register_device() calls and its class set to firmware_class (the class release function is fw_dev_release). Commit 6acf70f078ca replaced the kfree(dev) in fw_dev_release() with a put_device() call but my understanding is that the release function is called via put_device -> kobject_put -> kref_put -> koject_release etc. and it should call kfree since it's the last to see this device structure alive. Because of that, the _request_firmware() function on its -ENOENT error path only calls device_unregister(f_dev) which would eventually call fw_dev_release() but there is no kfree (the subsequent put_device call would just make the kref negative).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as1241) renames a bunch of functions in the PM core.

In addition, the old dpm_power_up and device_resume_noirq have been combined into a single function (dpm_resume_noirq). Lastly, dpm_suspend_start and dpm_resume_end are the renamed versions of the former top-level device_suspend and device_resume routines.

The current function names do not perform power down/up anymore so the names may be misleading. Global function renames: - device_power_down() -> device_suspend_noirq() - device_power_up() -> device_resume_noirq() Static function renames: - suspend_device_noirq() -> __device_suspend_noirq() - resume_device_noirq() -> __device_resume_noirq() Signed-off-by: Magnus Damm <damm@igel.co.jp> Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de> Acked-by: Len Brown <lenb@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Thus, during the late suspend and the early resume of devices acquire dpm_list_mtx only when dpm_list is going to be traversed and release it right after that.

Now all platform_driver is registered by platform_driver_register, which makes probe()/release()/... of platform_driver passed parameter of platform_device *, so platform driver can get platform_data from platform_device; 2. Other kind of devices do not need to use platform_data, we can decrease size of device if moving it to platform_device. Taking into consideration of thousands of files to be fixed and they can't be finished in one night(maybe it will take a long time), so we keep platform_data in device to allow two kind of cases coexist until all platform devices pass its platfrom data from platform_device->platform_data. All patches to do this kind of conversion are welcome. As we don't really want to do it, it was a bad idea.

* driver synchronization: make scsi_wait_scan more advancedArjan van de Ven2009-04-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is currently only one way for userspace to say "wait for my storage device to get ready for the modules I just loaded": to load the scsi_wait_scan module. Expectations of userspace are that once this module is loaded, all the (storage) devices for which the drivers were loaded before the module load are present. Now, there are some issues with the implementation, and the async stuff got caught in the middle of this: The existing code only waits for the scsy async probing to finish, but it did not take into account at all that probing might not have begun yet. (Russell ran into this problem on his computer and the fix works for him) This patch fixes this more thoroughly than the previous "fix", which had some bad side effects (namely, for kernel code that wanted to wait for the scsi scan it would also do an async sync, which would deadlock if you did it from async context already.. there's a report about that on lkml): The patch makes the module first wait for all device driver probes, and then it will wait for the scsi parallel scan to finish.

* Driver Core: early platform driverMagnus Damm2009-04-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | V3 of the early platform driver implementation. Platform drivers are great for embedded platforms because we can separate driver configuration from the actual driver. So base addresses, interrupts and other configuration can be kept with the processor or board code, and the platform driver can be reused by many different platforms. For early devices we have nothing today. For instance, to configure early timers and early serial ports we cannot use platform devices. This because the setup order during boot. Timers are needed before the platform driver core code is available. The same goes for early printk support. Early in this case means before initcalls. These early drivers today have their configuration either hard coded or they receive it using some special configuration method. This is working quite well, but if we want to support both regular kernel modules and early devices then we need to have two ways of configuring the same driver. A single way would be better. The early platform driver patch is basically a set of functions that allow drivers to register themselves and architecture code to locate them and probe. Registration happens through early_param(). The time for the probe is decided by the architecture code. See Documentation/driver-model/platform.txt for more details.

* driver core: fix driver_match_deviceMing Lei2009-04-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a bug introduced in commit 49b420a13ff95b449947181190b08367348e3e1b. If a instance of bus_type doesn't have .match method, all .probe of drivers in the bus should be called, or else the .probe have not a chance to be called.
