* [PATCH] ide: fix section mismatch warningSam Ravnborg2006-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In latest -mm ide-code.o gave a number of warnings like the following: WARNING: drivers/ide/ide-core.o - Section mismatch: reference to \ .init.text: from .text between 'init_module' (at offset 0x1f97) and \ 'cleanup_module' The warning was caused by init_module() calling parse_option() and ide_init() both declared __init. Declaring init_module() __init fixes the warnings.

* [PATCH] RocketPoint 1520 [hpt366] fails clock stabilizationLoren M. Lang2006-02-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I just purchased a HighPoint Rocket 1520 SATA controller. There seems to be no libata driver (yet), but there is an ide driver, hpt366. When the driver gets loaded, it causes a kernel NULL pointer dereference in pci_bus_clock_list. It seems to be because the driver is waiting for clock stabilization in init_hpt37x() which never comes. The driver just continues on with the pci drvdata set to NULL, instead of a valid clock entry. The following patch prevents the NULL dereference from happening, but instead exit with an error.

* [PATCH] stop CompactFlash devices being marked as removableRichard Purdie2006-02-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch stops CompactFlash devices being marked as removable. They are not removable (as defined by Linux) as the media and device are inseparable. When a card is removed, the whole device is removed from the system and never sits in a media-less state. This stops some nasty udev device creation/destruction loops. Further, once this change is made, there is no need for ide to can be removed from ide_drive_t.

This patch moves that to common code [1] and adds a ->getgeo method to fill out the raw kernel hd_geometry structure. For many drivers this means ->ioctl can go away now. [1] the s390 block drivers are odd in this respect. xpram sets ->start to 4 always which seems more than odd, and the dasd driver shifts the start offset around, probably because of it's non-standard sector size.

Add MODULE_ALIAS to IDE midlayer modules: ide-disk, ide-cd, ide-floppy and ide-tape, to autoload these modules depending on the probed media type of the IDE device. It is used by udev and replaces the former agent shell script of the hotplug package, which was required to lookup the media type in the proc filesystem. Using proc was racy, cause the media file is created after the hotplug event is sent out. The module autoloading does not take any effect, until something like the following udev rule is configured: SUBSYSTEM=="ide", ACTION=="add", ENV{MODALIAS}=="?*", RUN+="/sbin/modprobe $env{MODALIAS}" The module ide-scsi will not be autoloaded, cause it requires manual configuration. It can't be, and never was supported for automatic setup in the hotplug package. Adding a MODULE_ALIAS to ide-scsi for all supported media types, would just lead to a default blacklist entry anyway. $ modinfo ide-disk filename: /lib/modules/2.6.15-rc4-g1b0997f5/kernel/drivers/ide/ide-disk.ko description: ATA DISK Driver alias: ide:*m-disk* license: GPL ... $ modprobe -vn ide:m-disk insmod /lib/modules/2.6.15-rc4-g1b0997f5/kernel/drivers/ide/ide-disk.ko $ cat /sys/bus/ide/devices/0.0/modalias ide:m-disk It also adds attributes to the IDE device: $ tree /sys/bus/ide/devices/0.0/ /sys/bus/ide/devices/0.0/ |-- bus -> ../../../../../../../bus/ide |-- drivename |-- media |-- modalias |-- power | |-- state | `-- wakeup `-- uevent $ cat /sys/bus/ide/devices/0.0/{modalias,drivename,media} ide:m-disk hda disk Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
