Some MSI 3G netbook only have one fn key to control Wlan/Bluetooth/3G, those netbook will load the SCM (windows app) to disable the original Wlan/Bluetooth control by BIOS when user press fn key, then control Wlan/Bluetooth/3G by SCM (software control by OS). Without SCM, user cann't on/off 3G module on those 3G netbook. On Linux, msi-laptop driver will do the same thing to disable the original BIOS control, then might need use HAL or other userland application to do the software control that simulate with SCM. e.g. MSI N034 netbook Signed-off-by:

Suppport standard ec 66/62 command on MSI notebook and nebook. MSI netbook and notebook already support 66/62 command, so, add new get_state function, and put the old model to non-standard model, but driver still support those old model. Signed-off-by:

In the future, we are going to be changing the lock type for struct device (once we get the lockdep infrastructure properly worked out) To make that changeover easier, and to possibly burry the lock in a different part of struct device, let's create some functions to lock and unlock a device so that no out-of-core code needs to be changed in the future. This patch creates the device_lock/unlock/trylock() functions, and converts all in-tree users to them.

Because of rename ordering problems we occassionally give false warnings about invalid sysfs operations. So using sysfs_rename create a sysfs_rename_link function that doesn't need strange workarounds. Cc: Benjamin Thery <benjamin.thery@bull.net> Cc: Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com> Acked-by:

Placing the 16bit s_mode between a pointer and a long doesn't pack well especailly on 64bit where we wast 48 bits. So move s_mode and declare it as a unsigned short. This is the sysfs backing store after all we don't need fields extra large just in case someday we want userspace to be able to use a larger value. Acked-by:

The vfs depends upon filesystem methods to update the vfs inode. Sysfs adds to the normal number of places where the vfs inode is updated by also updatng the vfs inode in sysfs_refresh_inode. Typically the inode mutex is used to serialize updates to the vfs inode, but grabbing the inode mutex in sysfs_permission and sysfs_getattr causes deadlocks, because sometimes the vfs calls those operations with the inode mutex held. Therefore sysfs can not use the inode mutex to serial updates to the vfs inode. The sysfs_mutex is acquired in all of the routines where sysfs updates the vfs inode, and with a small change we can consistently protext sysfs vfs inode updates with the sysfs_mutex. To protect the sysfs vfs inode updates with the sysfs_mutex simply requires extending the scope of sysfs_mutex in sysfs_setattr over inode_setattr, and over inode_change_ok (so we have an unchanging inode when we perform the check).

Eric W. Biederman authored
I have added a new requirement to the external sysfs interface that dynamically allocated sysfs attributes must call sysfs_attr_init if lockdep is enabled. For the time being callying sysfs_attr_init is only mandatory if lockdep is enabled, so we can live with a few unconverted instances until we find them all. As this is part of the public interface of sysfs it is a good idea to document these pseudo functions so someone inspeciting the code can find out what has happened. Signed-off-by:

These are the non-static sysfs attributes that exist on my test machine. Fix them to use sysfs_attr_init or sysfs_bin_attr_init as appropriate. It simply requires making a sysfs attribute present to see this. So this is a little bit tedious but otherwise not too bad. Signed-off-by:

Acknowledge that the logical sysfs rwsem has one instance per sysfs attribute with different locking depencencies for different attributes. There is a sysfs idiom where writing to one sysfs file causes the addition or removal of other sysfs files. Lumping all of the sysfs attributes together in one lock class causes lockdep to generate lots of false positives. This introduces the requirement that non-static sysfs attributes need to be initialized with sysfs_attr_init or sysfs_bin_attr_init. Strictly speaking this requirement only exists when lockdep is enabled, and when lockdep is enabled we get a bit fat warning if this requirement is not met. Signed-off-by:

If we exclude directories and symlinks from the set of sysfs dirents where we need active references we are left with sysfs attributes (binary or not). - Tweak sysfs_deactivate to only do something on attributes - Move lockdep initialization into sysfs_file_add_mode to limit it to just attributes.

It turns out that holding an active reference on a directory is pointless. The purpose of the active references are to allows us to block when removing sysfs entries that have custom methods so we don't remove modules while running modular code and to keep those custom methods from accessing data structures after the files have been removed. Further sysfs_remove_dir remove all elements in the directory before removing the directory itself, so there is no chance we will remove a directory with active children. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds a Userspace IO driver for netX-based fieldbus cards by Hilscher (see http://www.hilscher.com). ATM, cifX and comX cards are supported. The userspace part for this driver is provided by Hilscher and should come with the card. The driver is in use for several months now and has been tested by people at Hilscher and Linutronix.

A pointer to cfag12864bfb_probe is passed to the core via platform_driver_register and so the function must not disappear when the .init sections are discarded. Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y) unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an oops as does a device being registered late. An alternative to this patch is using platform_driver_probe instead of platform_driver_register plus removing the pointer to the probe function from the struct platform_driver. Signed-off-by:

Constify struct sysfs_ops. This is part of the ops structure constification effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al. Benefits of this constification: * prevents modification of data that is shared (referenced) by many other structure instances at runtime * detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional) modification attempts on archs that enforce read-only kernel data at runtime * potentially better optimized code as the compiler can assume that the const data cannot be changed * the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata and therefore exclude them from false sharing Signed-off-by:

When sysfs_readdir stops short we now cache the next sysfs_dirent to return to user space in filp->private_data. There is no impact on the rest of sysfs by doing this and in the common case it allows us to pick up exactly where we left off with no seeking. Additionally I drop and regrab the sysfs_mutex around filldir to avoid a page fault abritrarily increasing the hold time on the sysfs_mutex. v2: Returned to using INT_MAX as the EOF condition. seekdir is ambiguous unless all directory entries have a unique f_pos value.
