These will be used to convert LLDs to new init model.
* Add irq_handler field to port_info. In new init model, requesting
IRQ is LLD's responsibility and libata doesn't need to know about
irq_handler. Most LLDs can simply register their irq_handler but
some need different irq_handler depending on specific chip. The
added port_info->irq_handler field can be used by LLDs to select
the matching IRQ handler in such cases.
* Add ata_dummy_port_info.
* Implement ata_pci_prepare_native_host(), a helper to alloc ATA host,
acquire all resources and init the host in one go.

Convert native PCI host handling to alloc-init-register model. New
function ata_pci_init_native_host() follows the new init model and
replaces ata_pci_init_native_mode(). As there are remaining LLD
users, the old function isn't removed yet.
ata_pci_init_one() is reimplemented using the new function and now
fully converted to new init model.

Reorganize ata_host_alloc() and its subroutines into the following
three functions.
* ata_host_alloc() : allocates host and its ports. shost is not
registered automatically.
* ata_scsi_add_hosts() : allocates and adds shosts associated with an
ATA host. Used by ata_host_register().
* ata_host_register() : takes a fully initialized ata_host structure
and registers it to libata layer and probes it.
Only ata_host_alloc() and ata_host_register() are exported.
ata_device_add() is rewritten using the above functions. This patch
does not introduce any observable behavior change. Things worth
mentioning.
* print_id is assigned at registration time and LLDs are allowed to
overallocate ports and reduce host->n_ports during initialization.
ata_host_register() will throw away unused ports automatically.
* All SCSI host initialization stuff now resides in
ata_scsi_add_hosts() in libata-scsi.c, where it should be.
* ipr is now the only user of ata_host_init(). Either kill it by
converting ipr to use ata_host_alloc() and friends or rename and
move it to libata-scsi.c

The READ/WRITE LONG commands are theoretically obsolete,
but the majority of drives in existance still implement them.
The WRITE_LONG and WRITE_LONG_ONCE commands are of particular
interest for fault injection testing -- eg. creating "media errors"
at specific locations on a disk.
The fussy bit is that these commands require a non-standard
sector size, usually 520 bytes instead of 512.
This patch adds support to libata for READ/WRITE LONG commands
issued via SG_IO/ATA_16.

Both old-IDE and libata should be able handle all controllers and
devices found using normal resource reservation methods.
This eliminates the awful, low-performing split-driver configuration
where old-IDE drove the PATA portion of a PCI device, in PIO-only mode,
and libata drove the SATA portion of the /same/ PCI device, in DMA mode.
Typically vendors would ship SATA hard drive / PATA optical
configuration, which would lend itself to slow (PIO-only) CD-ROM
performance.
For Intel users running in combined mode, it is now wholly dependent on
your driver choice (potentially link order, if you compile both drivers
in) whether old-IDE or libata will drive your hardware.
In either case, you will get full performance from both SATA and PATA
ports now, without having to pass a kernel command line parameter.

2.6.21-rc has horrible problems with libata and PATA cable types (and
thus speeds). This occurs because Tejun fixed a pile of other bugs and
we now do cable detect enforcement for drive side detection properly.
Unfortunately we don't do the process around cable detection right. Tejun
identified the problem and pointed to the right Annex in the spec, this patch
implements the rest of the needed changes.
We add a ->cable_detect() method called after the identify
sequence which allows a host to do host side detection at this point
should it wish, or to modify the results of the drive side identify.
This separate ->cable_detect method also cleans up a lot of code because
many drivers have their own error_handler methods which really just set
the cable type.
If there is no ->cable_detect method the cable type is left alone so a
driver setting it earlier (eg because it has the SATA flags set or
because it uses the old error_handler approach) will still do the right
thing (or at least the same thing) as before.
This patch simply adds the cable_detect method and helpers it doesn't use
them but other follow up patches will (ie Adrian please don't submit
patches to unexport them ;))

This patch (as877) adds a "last_busy" field to struct usb_device, for
use by the autosuspend framework. Now if an autosuspend call comes at
a time when the device isn't busy but hasn't yet been idle for long
enough, the timer can be set to exactly the desired value. And we
will be ready to handle things like HID drivers, which can't maintain
a useful usage count and must rely on the time-of-last-use to decide
when to autosuspend.
The patch also makes some related minor improvements:
Move the calls to the autosuspend condition-checking routine
into usb_suspend_both(), which is the only place where it
really matters.
If the autosuspend timer is already running, don't stop
and restart it.
Replace immediate returns with gotos so that the optional
debugging ouput won't be bypassed.
If autoresume is disabled but the device is already awake,
don't return an error for an autoresume call.
Don't try to autoresume a device if it isn't suspended.
(Yes, this undercuts the previous change -- so sue me.)
Don't duplicate existing code in the autosuspend work routine.
Fix the kerneldoc in usb_autopm_put_interface(): If an
autoresume call fails, the usage counter is left unchanged.

o The "real" usb-devices export now a device node which can
populate /dev/bus/usb.
o The usb_device class is optional now and can be disabled in the
kernel config. Major/minor of the "real" devices and class devices
are the same.
o The environment of the usb-device event contains DEVNUM and BUSNUM to
help udev and get rid of the ugly udev rule we need for the class
devices.
o The usb-devices and usb-interfaces share the same bus, so I used
the new "struct device_type" to let these devices identify
themselves. This also removes the current logic of using a magic
platform-pointer.
The name of the device_type is also added to the environment
which makes it easier to distinguish the different kinds of devices
on the same subsystem.
It looks like this:
add@/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb2/2-1
ACTION=add
DEVPATH=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb2/2-1
SUBSYSTEM=usb
SEQNUM=1533
MAJOR=189
MINOR=131
DEVTYPE=usb_device
PRODUCT=46d/c03e/2000
TYPE=0/0/0
BUSNUM=002
DEVNUM=004
This udev rule works as a replacement for usb_device class devices:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", \
NAME="bus/usb/$env{BUSNUM}/$env{DEVNUM}", MODE="0644"
Updated patch, which needs the device_type patches in Greg's tree.

This defines a platform hook to enable/disable a device as a wakeup event
source. It's initially for use with ACPI, but more generally it could be used
whenever enable_irq_wake()/disable_irq_wake() don't suffice.
The hook is called -- if available -- inside pci_enable_wake(); and the
semantics of that call are enhanced so that support for PCI PME# is no longer
needed. It can now work for devices with "legacy PCI PM", when platform
support allows it. (That support would use some board-specific signal for for
the same purpose as PME#.)

Prevent permission checking from being performed when the kernel wants to
unconditionally remove a sysfs group, by introducing an kernel-only variant
of lookup_one_len(), lookup_one_len_kern().
Additionally, as sysfs_remove_group() does not check the return value of
the lookup before using it, a BUG_ON has been added to pinpoint the cause
of any problems potentially caused by this (and as a form of annotation).

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.

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.

contain the device_type name in the DEVTYPE variable.
This helps userspace to distingiush between different types
of devices, belonging to the same subsystem.

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.
Also rework attribute creation for devices so that they all
cleaned up properly in case of errors.

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.

- 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.
There may be locking or refcounting fixes left, I stopped when it seemed
to work with network and sound modules. :)
