2006-12-01Driver core: make old versions of udev work properlyGreg Kroah-Hartman
If CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is enabled, old versions of udev will work properly with devices that are associated with a class. Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-12-01CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATEDKay Sievers
Provide a way to support older versions of udev that are shipped in older distros. If this option is disabled, it will also turn off the compatible symlinks in sysfs that older programs might rely on. When in doubt, or if running a distro older than 2006, say Yes here.

2006-12-01Driver core: fix "driver" symlink timingKay Sievers
Create the "driver" link before the child device may be created by the probing logic. This makes it possible for userspace (udev), to determine the driver property of the parent device, at the time the child device is created.

2006-12-01Driver core: add notification of bus eventsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
I finally did as you suggested and added the notifier to the struct bus_type itself. There are still problems to be expected is something attaches to a bus type where the code can hook in different struct device sub-classes (which is imho a big bogosity but I won't even try to argue that case now) but it will solve nicely a number of issues I've had so far. That also means that clients interested in registering for such notifications have to do it before devices are added and after bus types are registered. Fortunately, most bus types that matter for the various usage scenarios I have in mind are registerd at postcore_initcall time, which means I have a really nice spot at arch_initcall time to add my notifiers. There are 4 notifications provided. Device being added (before hooked to the bus) and removed (failure of previous case or after being unhooked from the bus), along with driver being bound to a device and about to be unbound. The usage I have for these are: - The 2 first ones are used to maintain a struct device_ext that is hooked to struct device.firmware_data. This structure contains for now a pointer to the Open Firmware node related to the device (if any), the NUMA node ID (for quick access to it) and the DMA operations pointers & iommu table instance for DMA to/from this device. For bus types I own (like IBM VIO or EBUS), I just maintain that structure directly from the bus code when creating the devices. But for bus types managed by generic code like PCI or platform (actually, of_platform which is a variation of platform linked to Open Firmware device-tree), I need this notifier. - The other two ones have a completely different usage scenario. I have cases where multiple devices and their drivers depend on each other. For example, the IBM EMAC network driver needs to attach to a MAL DMA engine which is a separate device, and a PHY interface which is also a separate device. They are all of_platform_device's (well, about to be with my upcoming patches) but there is no say in what precise order the core will "probe" them and instanciate the various modules. The solution I found for that is to have the drivers for emac to use multithread_probe, and wait for a driver to be bound to the target MAL and PHY control devices (the device-tree contains reference to the MAL and PHY interface nodes, which I can then match to of_platform_devices). Right now, I've been polling, but with that notifier, I can more cleanly wait (with a timeout of course).

2006-11-28[NET]: Fix MAX_HEADER setting.David S. Miller
MAX_HEADER is either set to LL_MAX_HEADER or LL_MAX_HEADER + 48, and this is controlled by a set of CONFIG_* ifdef tests. It is trying to use LL_MAX_HEADER + 48 when any of the tunnels are enabled which set hard_header_len like this: dev->hard_header_len = LL_MAX_HEADER + sizeof(struct xxx); The correct set of tunnel drivers which do this are: ipip ip_gre ip6_tunnel sit so make the ifdef test match.

2006-11-26Fix 'ALIGN()' macro, take 2Linus Torvalds
You wouldn't think that doing an ALIGN() macro that aligns something up to a power-of-two boundary would be likely to have bugs, would you? But hey, in the wonderful world of mixing integer types, you have to be careful. This just makes sure that the alignment is interpreted in the same type as the thing to be aligned. Thanks to Roland Dreier, who noticed that the amso1100 driver got broken by the previous fix (that just extended the mask to "unsigned long", but was still broken in "unsigned long long" - it just happened to be the same on 64-bit architectures).
