I went to use this the other day, only to find it didn't exist. It's a straight copy of the debugfs u32 code, then s/u32/u64/. A quick test shows it seems to be working. Signed-off-by:

In the future we will allow the uevent type to be written to the uevent file to trigger the different types of uevents. But for now, as we only support the ADD event, warn if userspace tries to write anything else to this file. Signed-off-by:

This allows sysfs to show the environment variables that are available if the uevent happens. This lets userspace not have to cache all of this information as the kernel already knows it. Signed-off-by:

It isn't used at all by the driver core anymore, and the few usages of it within the kernel have now all been fixed as most of them were using it incorrectly. So remove it. Now the whole struct subsys can be removed from the system, but that's for a later patch... Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: -

the current driver tree contains the removal of subsys.rwsem. Unfortunately, this breaks qeth. However, it should be no problem to fix the walking of the devices for /proc/qeth: No need to take subsys.rwsem during walking the devices, driver_find_devices() should already suffice. Signed-off-by:

The subsystem rwsem is not used by the driver core at all, so the use of it in the phy code doesn't make any sense. They might possibly want to use a local lock, but I am unsure about that. Cc: netdev <netdev@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: -

The subsystem rwsem is not used by the driver core at all, so the use of it in the ieee1394 code doesn't make any sense. They might possibly want to use a local lock, but as most of these operations are already protected by a local lock, it really doesn't look like it would be needed.

The rwsem is not used to protect anything, so the use of it by the PNP subsystem isn't really useful, and it's doubtful if it really did anything or not. So I've removed it. Cc: Adam Belay <ambx1@neo.rr.com> Signed-off-by: -

The driver core stopped using the rwsem a long time ago, yet the USB core still grabbed the lock, thinking it protected something. This patch removes that useless use.

Driver core: add suspend() and resume() to struct device_type In cases when there are devices of different types in the same class we can't use class's implementation of suspend and resume methods and we need to add them to struct device_type instead. Also fix error handling in resume code (we should not try to call class's resume method iof bus's resume method for the device failed. Signed-off-by:

The completion in the driver release path is due to ancient history in the _very_ early 2.5 days when we were not tracking the module reference count of attributes. It is not needed at all and can be removed. Note, we now have an empty release function for the driver structure. This is due to the fact that drivers are statically allocated in the system at this point in time, something which I want to change in the future. But remember, drivers are really code, which is reference counted by the module, unlike devices, which are data and _must_ be reference counted properly in order to work correctly.

Don't fail bus_attach_device() if the device cannot be bound. If dev->driver has been specified, reset it to NULL if device_bind_driver() failed and add the device as an unbound device. As a result, bus_attach_device() now cannot fail, and we can remove some checking from device_add(). Also remove an unneeded check in bus_rescan_devices_helper(). Signed-off-by:

Make multithreaded probing work per subsystem instead of per driver. It doesn't make much sense to probe the same device for multiple drivers in parallel (after all, only one driver can bind to the device). Instead, create a probing thread for each device that probes the drivers one after another. Also make the decision to use multi-threaded probe per bus instead of per device and adapt the pci code.

Driver core: use attribute groups in struct device_type Attribute groups are more flexible than attribute lists (an attribute list can be represented by anonymous group) so switch struct device_type to use them.

We get two per-bus sysfs files: ls-l /sys/subsystem/usb drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 2007-02-16 16:42 devices drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 0 2007-02-16 14:55 drivers -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 2007-02-16 16:42 drivers_autoprobe --w------- 1 root root 4096 2007-02-16 16:42 drivers_probe The flag "drivers_autoprobe" controls the behavior of the bus to bind devices by default, or just initialize the device and leave it alone. The command "drivers_probe" accepts a bus_id and the bus tries to bind a driver to this device. Systems who want to control the driver binding with udev, switch off the bus initiated probing: echo 0 > /sys/subsystem/usb/drivers_autoprobe echo 0 > /sys/subsystem/pcmcia/drivers_autoprobe ... and initiate the probing with udev rules like: ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{subsystem/drivers_probe}="$kernel" ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="pcmcia", ATTR{subsystem/drivers_probe}="$kernel" ... Custom driver binding can happen in earlier rules by something like: ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", \ ATTRS{idVendor}=="1234", ATTRS{idProduct}=="5678" \ ATTR{subsystem/drivers/<custom-driver>/bind}="$kernel" This is intended to solve the modprobe.conf mess with "install-rules", custom bind/unbind-scripts and all the weird things people invented over the years. It should also provide the functionality "libusual" was supposed to do. With udev, one can just write a udev rule to drive all USB-disks at the third port of USB-hub by the "ub" driver, and everything else by usb-storage. One can also instruct udev to bind different wireless drivers to identical cards - just selected by the pcmcia slot-number, and whatever ... To use the mentioned rules, it needs udev version 106, to be able to write ATTR{}="$kernel" to sysfs files. Signed-off-by: -

As the new-style class devices (as opposed to old-style struct class_device) are becoming more widely used, I noticed that the dev_printk-based functions are not working properly with these. New-style class devices have no driver nor bus, almost by definition, and as a result dev_driver_string(), which is used as the first parameter of dev_printk, resolves to an empty string. This causes entries like the following to show in my logs: i2c-2: adapter [SMBus stub driver] registered Notice the unaesthetical leading whitespace. In order to fix this problem, I suggest that we extend dev_driver_string to deal with new-style class devices: Signed-off-by:

- uses a kset in "struct class" to keep track of all directories belonging to this class - merges with the /sys/devices/virtual logic. - removes the namespace-dir if the last member of that class leaves the directory.
