* cleanup asm/scatterlist.h includesAdrian Bunk2007-11-02
| | | | | | | | | | | Not architecture specific code should not #include <asm/scatterlist.h>.

* Revert "Driver core: remove class_device_*_bin_file"Greg Kroah-Hartman2007-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit fcd239d3d5575e5cc63aab5c33cf6dc66904f6d6. I messed up, ia64 still uses these files in the current tree, and now can not build the pci code, which all ia64 boxes seem to require :) This fixes that mistake. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* Driver Core: fix bug in device_rename() for SYSFS_DEPRECATED=yKay Sievers2007-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This should fix the sysfs warnings that renaming network devices is causing to show up with CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED=y The code just shouldn't run if class devices are real directories, it's an update for the symlink in the class directory. Nobody noticed that as long as the creation of sysfs files silently failed, and we both missed it before the merge, because we don't run SYSFS_DEPRECATED=y.

* memory hotplug: rearrange memory hotplug notifierYasunori Goto2007-10-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current memory notifier has some defects yet. (Fortunately, nothing uses it.) This patch is to fix and rearrange for them. - Add information of start_pfn, nr_pages, and node id if node status is changes from/to memoryless node for callback functions. Callbacks can't do anything without those information. - Add notification going-online status. It is necessary for creating per node structure before the node's pages are available. - Move GOING_OFFLINE status notification after page isolation. It is good place for return memory like cache for callback, because returned page is not used again. - Make CANCEL events for rollingback when error occurs. - Delete MEM_MAPPING_INVALID notification. It will be not used. - Fix compile error of (un)register_memory_notifier().

* sparsemem: record when a section has a valid mem_mapAndy Whitcroft2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have flags to indicate whether a section actually has a valid mem_map associated with it. This is never set and we rely solely on the present bit to indicate a section is valid. By definition a section is not valid if it has no mem_map and there is a window during init where the present bit is set but there is no mem_map, during which pfn_valid() will return true incorrectly. Use the existing SECTION_HAS_MEM_MAP flag to indicate the presence of a valid mem_map. Switch valid_section{,_nr} and pfn_valid() to this bit. Add a new present_section{,_nr} and pfn_present() interfaces for those users who care to know that a section is going to be valid.

* Introduce CONFIG_SUSPEND for suspend-to-Ram and standbyRafael J. Wysocki2007-07-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce CONFIG_SUSPEND representing the ability to enter system sleep states, such as the ACPI S3 state, and allow the user to choose SUSPEND and HIBERNATION independently of each other. Make HOTPLUG_CPU be selected automatically if SUSPEND or HIBERNATION has been chosen and the kernel is intended for SMP systems. Also, introduce CONFIG_PM_SLEEP which is automatically selected if CONFIG_SUSPEND or CONFIG_HIBERNATION is set and use it to select the code needed for both suspend and hibernation. The top-level power management headers and the ACPI code related to suspend and hibernation are modified to use the new definitions (the changes in drivers/acpi/sleep/main.c are, mostly, moving code to reduce the number of ifdefs). There are many other files in which CONFIG_PM can be replaced with CONFIG_PM_SLEEP or even with CONFIG_SUSPEND, but they can be updated in the future. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

* sysfs: add parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in .read/.write methods for ↵Zhang Rui2007-07-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sysfs binary attributes Well, first of all, I don't want to change so many files either. What I do: Adding a new parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in the .read/.write methods for the sysfs binary attributes. In fact, only the four lines change in fs/sysfs/bin.c and include/linux/sysfs.h do the real work. But I have to update all the files that use binary attributes to make them compatible with the new .read and .write methods. I'm not sure if I missed any. :( Why I do this: For a sysfs attribute, we can get a pointer pointing to the struct attribute in the .show/.store method, while we can't do this for the binary attributes. I don't know why this is different, but this does make it not so handy to use the binary attributes as the regular ones. So I think this patch is reasonable. :) Who benefits from it: The patch that exposes ACPI tables in sysfs requires such an improvement. All the table binary attributes share the same .read method. Parameter "struct bin_attribute *" is used to get the table signature and instance number which are used to distinguish different ACPI table binary attributes. Without this parameter, we need to offer different .read methods for different ACPI table binary attributes. This is impossible as there are various ACPI tables on different platforms, and we don't know what they are until they are loaded.
