2008-07-04spi: fix the read path in spidevSebastian Siewior
This got broken by the recent "fix rmmod $spi_driver while spidev-user is active". I tested the rmmod & write path but didn't check the read path. I am sorry. The read logic changed and spidev_sync_read() + spidev_sync_write() do not return zero on success anymore but the number of bytes that has been transfered over the bus. This patch changes the logic and copy_to_user() gets called again. The write path returns the number of bytes which are written to the underlying device what may be less than the requested size. This patch makes the same change to the read path or else we request a read of 20 bytes, get 10, don't call copy to user and report to the user that we read 10 bytes.

2008-06-06spi: fix refcount-related spidev oops-on-rmmodDavid Brownell
This addresses other oopsing paths in "spidev" by changing how it manages refcounting. It decouples the lifecycle of the per-device data from the class device (not just the spi device): - Use class_{create,destroy} not class_{register,unregister}. - Use device_{create,destroy} not device_{register,unregister}. - Free the per-device data only when TWO conditions are true: * Driver is unbound from underlying SPI device, and * Device is no longer open (new) Also, spi_{get,set}_drvdata not dev_{get,set}_drvdata for simpler code.

2008-05-24spi: remove some spidev oops-on-rmmod pathsDavid Brownell
Somehow the spidev code forgot to include a critical mechanism: when the underlying device is removed (e.g. spi_master rmmod), open file descriptors must be prevented from issuing new I/O requests to that device. On penalty of the oopsing reported by Sebastian Siewior <bigeasy@tglx.de> ... This is a partial fix, adding handshaking between the lower level (SPI messaging) and the file operations using the spi_dev. (It also fixes an issue where reads and writes didn't return the number of bytes sent or received.) There's still a refcounting issue to be addressed (separately).

2007-10-29fix abuses of ptrdiff_tAl Viro
Use of ptrdiff_t in places like - if (!access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE, u_tmp->rx_buf, u_tmp->len)) + if (!access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE, (u8 __user *) + (ptrdiff_t) u_tmp->rx_buf, + u_tmp->len)) is wrong; for one thing, it's a bad C (it's what uintptr_t is for; in general we are not even promised that ptrdiff_t is large enough to hold a pointer, just enough to hold a difference between two pointers within the same object). For another, it confuses the fsck out of sparse. Use unsigned long or uintptr_t instead. There are several places misusing ptrdiff_t; fixed.

2007-07-31spidev supports more communications modesAnton Vorontsov
The spidev driver doesn't currently expose all SPI communications modes to userspace. This passes them all through to the driver. Two of them are potentially troublesome, in the sense that they could cause hardware conflicts on shared busses. It might be appropriate to add some privilege checks for for those modes.

Get rid of annoying GCC warning on 32-bit platforms. drivers/spi/spidev.c: In function 'spidev_message': drivers/spi/spidev.c:184: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size drivers/spi/spidev.c:216: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size The trick is to add an extra cast using "ptrdiff_t" to convert the u64 to the correct size integer, and only then casting it into a "void *" pointer.

2007-05-08/dev/spidevB.C interfaceAndrea Paterniani
Add a filesystem API for <linux/spi/spi.h> stack. The initial version of this interface is purely synchronous. dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net: Cleaned up, bugfixed; much simplified; added preliminary documentation. Works with mdev given CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED; and presumably udev. Updated SPI_IOC_MESSAGE ioctl to full spi_message semantics, supporting groups of one or more transfers (each of which may be full duplex if desired). This is marked as EXPERIMENTAL with an explicit disclaimer that the API (notably the ioctls) is subject to change.
