2005-10-29[PATCH] memory hotplug: sysfs and add/remove functionsDave Hansen
This adds generic memory add/remove and supporting functions for memory hotplug into a new file as well as a memory hotplug kernel config option. Individual architecture patches will follow. For now, disable memory hotplug when swsusp is enabled. There's a lot of churn there right now. We'll fix it up properly once it calms down.

2005-10-28[PATCH] root hub changes (lesser half)David Brownell
This patch collects various small updates related to root hubs, to shrink later patches which build on them. - For root hub suspend/resume support: * Make the existing usb_hcd_resume_root_hub() routine respect pmcore locking, exporting and using the dpm_runtime_resume() method. * Add a new usb_hcd_suspend_root_hub() to pair with that routine. (Essential to make OHCI autosuspend behave again...) * HC_SUSPENDED by itself only refers to the root hub's downstream ports. So let HCDs see root hub URBs unless the parent device is suspended. - Remove an assertion we no longer need (and now, also don't want). - Generic suspend/resume updates to work better with swsusp. * Ignore the FREEZE vs SUSPEND distinction for hardware; trying to use it breaks the swsusp snapshots it's supposed to help (sigh). * On resume, mark devices as resumed right away, but then do nothing else if the device is marked NOTATTACHED. These changes shouldn't be very noticable by themselves.

2005-10-28[PATCH] one less word in struct deviceDavid Brownell
This saves a word from "struct device" ... there's a refcounting mechanism stub that's rather ineffective (the values are never even tested!), which can safely be deleted. With this patch it uses normal device refcounting, so any potential users of the pm_parent mechanism will be more correct. (That mechanism is actually unusable for now though; it does nothing.)

2005-10-28[PATCH] DRIVER MODEL: Get rid of the obsolete tri-level suspend/resume callbacksRussell King
In PM v1, all devices were called at SUSPEND_DISABLE level. Then all devices were called at SUSPEND_SAVE_STATE level, and finally SUSPEND_POWER_DOWN level. However, with PM v2, to maintain compatibility for platform devices, I arranged for the PM v2 suspend/resume callbacks to call the old PM v1 suspend/resume callbacks three times with each level in order so that existing drivers continued to work. Since this is obsolete infrastructure which is no longer necessary, we can remove it. Here's an (untested) patch to do exactly that.

2005-10-28[PATCH] drivers/base - fix sparse warningsBen Dooks
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.

2005-10-28[PATCH] Driver Core: add the ability for class_device structures to be nestedGreg Kroah-Hartman
This patch allows struct class_device to be nested, so that another struct class_device can be the parent of a new one, instead of only having the struct class be the parent. This will allow us to (hopefully) fix up the input and video class subsystem mess. But please people, don't go crazy and start making huge trees of class devices, you should only need 2 levels deep to get everything to work (remember to use a class_interface to get notification of a new class device being added to the system.) Oh, this also allows us to have the possibility of potentially, someday, moving /sys/block into /sys/class. The main hindrance is that pesky /dev numberspace issue...

This is a refresh of an earlier patch to add "wakeup" support to the PM core model.

2005-09-22[PATCH] fix class symlinks in sysfsBill Nottingham
The class symlinks in sysfs don't properly handle changing device names. To demonstrate, rename your network device from eth0 to eth1. Your pci (or usb, or whatever) device will still have a 'net:eth0' link, except now it points to /sys/class/net/eth1. The attached patch makes sure the class symlink name changes when the class device name changes. It isn't 100% correct, it should be using sysfs_rename_link. Unfortunately, sysfs_rename_link doesn't exist.

2005-09-22[PATCH] Driver Core: fis bus rescan devices raceDaniel Ritz
bus_rescan_devices_helper() does not hold the dev->sem when it checks for !dev->driver(). device_attach() holds the sem, but calls again device_bind_driver() even when dev->driver is set. What happens is that a first device_attach() call (module insertion time) is on the way binding the device to a driver. Another thread calls bus_rescan_devices(). Now when bus_rescan_devices_helper() checks for dev->driver it is still NULL 'cos the the prior device_attach() is not yet finished. But as soon as the first one releases the dev->sem the second device_attach() tries to rebind the already bound device again. device_bind_driver() does this blindly which leads to a corrupt driver->klist_devices list (the device links itself, the head points to the device). Later a call to device_release_driver() sets dev->driver to NULL and breaks the link it has to itself on knode_driver. Rmmoding the driver later calls driver_detach() which leads to an endless loop 'cos the list head in klist_devices still points to the device. And since dev->driver is NULL it's stuck with the same device forever. Boom. And rmmod hangs. Very easy to reproduce with new-style pcmcia and a 16bit card. Just loop modprobe <pcmcia-modules> ;cardctl eject; rmmod <card driver, pcmcia modules>. Easiest fix is to check if the device is already bound to a driver in device_bind_driver(). This avoids the double binding.

2005-09-07[PATCH] fix klist semantics for lists which have elements removed on traversalJames Bottomley
The problem is that klists claim to provide semantics for safe traversal of lists which are being modified. The failure case is when traversal of a list causes element removal (a fairly common case). The issue is that although the list node is refcounted, if it is embedded in an object (which is universally the case), then the object will be freed regardless of the klist refcount leading to slab corruption because the klist iterator refers to the prior element to get the next. The solution is to make the klist take and release references to the embedding object meaning that the embedding object won't be released until the list relinquishes the reference to it.

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.

bus_add_device() Don't error out if something "bad" happens when trying to bind a driver to a device. We want the sysfs attributes to be present for later when we try to tear down the device. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-06-21[PATCH] node local per-cpu-pagesChristoph Lameter
This patch modifies the way pagesets in struct zone are managed. Each zone has a per-cpu array of pagesets. So any particular CPU has some memory in each zone structure which belongs to itself. Even if that CPU is not local to that zone. So the patch relocates the pagesets for each cpu to the node that is nearest to the cpu instead of allocating the pagesets in the (possibly remote) target zone. This means that the operations to manage pages on remote zone can be done with information available locally. We play a macro trick so that non-NUMA pmachines avoid the additional pointer chase on the page allocator fastpath.
