* [SCSI] transport_class: BUG if we can't release the attribute containerJames Bottomley2008-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Every current transport class calls transport_container_release but ignores the return value. This is catastrophic if it returns an error because the containers are part of a global list and the next action of almost every transport class is to free the memory used by the container. Fix this by making transport_container_release a void, but making it BUG if attribute_container_release returns an error ... this catches the root cause of a system panic much earlier. If we don't do this, we get an eventual BUG when the attribute container list notices the corruption caused by the freed memory it's still referencing. Also made attribute_container_release __must_check as a reminder. Cc: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com>
* driver core: fix small mem leak in driver_add_kobj()Jesper Juhl2008-03-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Coverity checker spotted that we leak the storage allocated to 'name' in int driver_add_kobj(). The leak looks legit to me - this is the code : int driver_add_kobj(struct device_driver *drv, struct kobject *kobj, const char *fmt, ...) { va_list args; char *name; int ret; va_start(args, fmt); name = kvasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, fmt, args); ^^^^^^^^ This dynamically allocates space... va_end(args); if (!name) return -ENOMEM; return kobject_add(kobj, &drv->p->kobj, "%s", name); ^^^^^^^^ This neglects to free the space allocated } Inside kobject_add() a copy of 'name' will be made and used. As far as I can see, Coverity is correct in flagging this as a leak, but I'd like some configmation before the patch is applied. This should fix it.

* drivers: fix dma_get_required_maskJames Bottomley2008-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's a bug in the current implementation of dma_get_required_mask() where it ands the returned mask with the current device mask. This rather defeats the purpose if you're using the call to determine what your mask should be (since you will at that time have the default DMA_32BIT_MASK). This bug results in any driver that uses this function *always* getting a 32 bit mask, which is wrong. Fix by removing the and with dev->dma_mask.

I then noticed that I'm debugging a suspend failure and so PM_TRACE isn't useful at all, but thought that nonetheless this could be useful in the future.

* | Driver core: convert block from raw kobjects to core devicesKay Sievers2008-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This moves the block devices to /sys/class/block. It will create a flat list of all block devices, with the disks and partitions in one directory. For compatibility /sys/block is created and contains symlinks to the disks. /sys/class/block |-- sda -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.2/host0/target0:0:0/0:0:0:0/block/sda |-- sda1 -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.2/host0/target0:0:0/0:0:0:0/block/sda/sda1 |-- sda10 -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.2/host0/target0:0:0/0:0:0:0/block/sda/sda10 |-- sda5 -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.2/host0/target0:0:0/0:0:0:0/block/sda/sda5 |-- sda6 -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.2/host0/target0:0:0/0:0:0:0/block/sda/sda6 |-- sda7 -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.2/host0/target0:0:0/0:0:0:0/block/sda/sda7 |-- sda8 -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.2/host0/target0:0:0/0:0:0:0/block/sda/sda8 |-- sda9 -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.2/host0/target0:0:0/0:0:0:0/block/sda/sda9 `-- sr0 -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.2/host1/target1:0:0/1:0:0:0/block/sr0 /sys/block/ |-- sda -> ../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.2/host0/target0:0:0/0:0:0:0/block/sda `-- sr0 -> ../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.2/host1/target1:0:0/1:0:0:0/block/sr0 Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* | Driver core: fix class glue dir cleanup logicKay Sievers2008-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We should remove the glue directory between the class and the bus device _after_ we sent out the 'remove' event for the device, otherwise the parent relationship is no longer valid, and composing the path with deleted sysfs entries will not work.

* | Driver core: fix race in __device_release_driverAlan Stern2008-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as1013) was suggested by David Woodhouse; it fixes a race in the driver core. If a device is unregistered at the same time as its driver is unloaded, the driver's code pages may be unmapped while the remove method is still running. The calls to get_driver() and put_driver() were intended to prevent this, but they don't work if the driver's module count has already dropped to 0. Instead, the patch keeps the device on the driver's list until after the remove method has returned. This forces the necessary synchronization to occur.
