2008-10-13Automatic MODULE_ALIAS() for DMI match tables.David Woodhouse
This makes modpost handle MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(dmi, xxxx). I had to change the string pointers in the match table to char arrays, and picked a size of 79 bytes almost at random -- do we need to make it bigger than that? I was a bit concerned about the 'bloat' this introduces into the match tables, but they should all be __initdata so it shouldn't matter too much. (Actually, modpost does go through the relocations and look at most of them; it wouldn't be impossible to make it handle string pointers -- but doesn't seem to be worth the effort, since they're __initdata).

2008-07-24remove the v850 portAdrian Bunk
Trying to compile the v850 port brings many compile errors, one of them exists since at least kernel 2.6.19. There also seems to be noone willing to bring this port back into a usable state. This patch therefore removes the v850 port. If anyone ever decides to revive the v850 port the code will still be available from older kernels, and it wouldn't be impossible for the port to reenter the kernel if it would become actively maintained again.

2008-05-04modpost: i2c aliases need no trailing wildcardJean Delvare
Not all device types need a wildcard at the end of their module aliases. In particular, for i2c module aliases, the trailing wildcard is not only unneeded, it could also cause the wrong driver to be loaded. As I2C devices have no IDs, i2c module aliases are simple, arbitrary device names. For example: $ /sbin/modinfo lm90 filename: /lib/modules/2.6.25-git18/kernel/drivers/hwmon/lm90.ko author: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> description: LM90/ADM1032 driver license: GPL vermagic: 2.6.25-git18 mod_unload depends: hwmon alias: i2c:lm90* alias: i2c:adm1032* alias: i2c:lm99* alias: i2c:lm86* alias: i2c:max6657* alias: i2c:adt7461* alias: i2c:max6680* $ This would cause trouble if one I2C chip name matches the beginning of another I2C chip name and both chips are supported by different drivers. For example, an i2c device named lm9042 would cause the lm90 driver to be loaded, while it doesn't support that device. This case has yet to be seen in practice, but still, I'd like to fix it now. The cleanest fix is to remove the trailing wildcard from i2c module aliases. Here's a patch doing this. Not all device type aliases need a trailing wildcard, in particular the i2c aliases don't. Don't add a wildcard by default in do_table(), instead let each device type handler add it if needed. I have tested types acpi, dmi, eisa, i2c, ide, ieee1394, input, pci, pcmcia, platform, pnp, scsi, serio, ssb and usb. Other types (ccw, of, vio, parisc, sdio and virtio) are untested.

2008-04-19PNP: add all PNP card device id's as individual aliasesKay Sievers
The current PNP combined card + devices module aliase can never ever match anything, because these values are not available all at the same time to request a module. Instead of adding the combined alias, we add the device id's all as individual aliases. Device id's are exported by the PNP bus and can now properly used to request the loading of a matching module. The module snd-sbawe currently exports aliases, which can never match anything: alias: pnp:cCTLXXXXdCTL0045dCTL0022* alias: pnp:cCTLXXXXdCTL0044dCTL0023* alias: pnp:cCTLXXXXdCTL0042dCTL0022* alias: pnp:cCTLXXXXdCTL0041dCTL0021* alias: pnp:cCTLXXXXdCTL0031dCTL0021* alias: pnp:cCTL00eddCTL0041dCTL0070* alias: pnp:cCTL00e9dCTL0045dCTL0022* alias: pnp:cCTL00e4dCTL0045dCTL0022* alias: pnp:cCTL00c7dCTL0045dCTL0022* alias: pnp:cCTL00c5dCTL0045dCTL0022* alias: pnp:cCTL00c3dCTL0045dCTL0022* alias: pnp:cCTL00c1dCTL0042dCTL0022* alias: pnp:cCTL00b2dCTL0044dCTL0023* alias: pnp:cCTL009edCTL0044dCTL0023* alias: pnp:cCTL009ddCTL0042dCTL0022* alias: pnp:cCTL009fdCTL0041dCTL0021* alias: pnp:cCTL009cdCTL0041dCTL0021* alias: pnp:cCTL009adCTL0041dCTL0021* alias: pnp:cCTL0054dCTL0031dCTL0021* alias: pnp:cCTL0048dCTL0031dCTL0021* alias: pnp:cCTL0047dCTL0031dCTL0021* alias: pnp:cCTL0046dCTL0031dCTL0021* alias: pnp:cCTL0045dCTL0031dCTL0021* alias: pnp:cCTL0044dCTL0031dCTL0021* alias: pnp:cCTL0043dCTL0031dCTL0021* alias: pnp:cCTL0042dCTL0031dCTL0021* alias: pnp:cCTL0039dCTL0031dCTL0021* alias: pnp:cCTL0035dCTL0031dCTL0021* With this patch it exports only the device id's, as properly matchable aliases: alias: pnp:dCTL0070* alias: pnp:dCTL0045* alias: pnp:dCTL0023* alias: pnp:dCTL0044* alias: pnp:dCTL0022* alias: pnp:dCTL0042* alias: pnp:dCTL0041* alias: pnp:dCTL0021* alias: pnp:dCTL0031* Now, the exported value of the PNP bus can be used to autoload a matching module: $ modprobe --first-time -n -v pnp:dCTL0045 insmod /lib/modules/2.6.24-rc6-g5b825ed2-dirty/kernel/sound/core/snd-rawmidi.ko insmod /lib/modules/2.6.24-rc6-g5b825ed2-dirty/kernel/sound/drivers/mpu401/snd-mpu401-uart.ko insmod /lib/modules/2.6.24-rc6-g5b825ed2-dirty/kernel/sound/core/snd-hwdep.ko insmod /lib/modules/2.6.24-rc6-g5b825ed2-dirty/kernel/sound/isa/sb/snd-sb-common.ko insmod /lib/modules/2.6.24-rc6-g5b825ed2-dirty/kernel/sound/isa/sb/snd-sb16-csp.ko insmod /lib/modules/2.6.24-rc6-g5b825ed2-dirty/kernel/sound/isa/sb/snd-sb16-dsp.ko insmod /lib/modules/2.6.24-rc6-g5b825ed2-dirty/kernel/sound/drivers/opl3/snd-opl3-lib.ko insmod /lib/modules/2.6.24-rc6-g5b825ed2-dirty/kernel/sound/isa/sb/snd-sbawe.ko $ grep CTL0045 /sys/bus/pnp/devices/*/id /sys/bus/pnp/devices/01:01.00/id:CTL0045 Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2006-09-27[PATCH] EISA bus MODALIAS attributes supportMichael Tokarev
Add modalias attribute support for the almost forgotten now EISA bus and (at least some) EISA-aware modules. The modalias entry looks like (for an 3c509 NIC): eisa:sTCM5093 and the in-module alias like: eisa:sTCM5093* The patch moves struct eisa_device_id declaration from include/linux/eisa.h to include/linux/mod_devicetable.h (so that the former now #includes the latter), adds proper MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(eisa, ...) statements for all drivers with EISA IDs I found (some drivers already have that DEVICE_TABLE declared), and adds recognision of __mod_eisa_device_table to scripts/mod/file2alias.c so that proper modules.alias will be generated. There's no support for /lib/modules/$kver/modules.eisamap, as it's not used by any existing tools, and because with in-kernel modalias mechanism those maps are obsolete anyway. The rationale for this patch is: a) to make EISA bus to act as other busses with modalias support, to unify driver loading b) to foget about EISA finally - with this patch, kernel (who still supports EISA) will be the only one who knows how to choose the necessary drivers for this bus ;) [akpm@osdl.org: fix the kbuild bit] Signed-off-by: Michael Tokarev <mjt@tls.msk.ru> Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> Acked-the-net-bits-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org> Acked-the-tulip-bit-by: Valerie Henson <val_henson@linux.intel.com> Cc: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@steeleye.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-09-20[S390] zcrypt adjunct processor bus.Martin Schwidefsky
Add a bus for the adjunct processor interface. Up to 64 devices can be connect to the ap bus interface, each device with 16 domains. That makes 1024 message queues. The interface is asynchronous, the answer to a message sent to a queue needs to be received at some later point in time. Unfortunately the interface does not provide interrupts when a message reply is pending. So the ap bus needs to implement some fancy polling, each active queue is polled once per 1/HZ second or continuously if an idle cpus exsists and the poll thread is activ (see poll_thread parameter). The ap bus uses the sysfs path /sys/bus/ap and has two bus attributes, ap_domain and config_time. The ap_domain selects one of the 16 domains to be used for this system. This limits the maximum number of ap devices to 64. The config_time attribute contains the number of seconds between two ap bus scans to find new devices. The ap bus uses the modalias entries of the form "ap:tN" to autoload the ap driver for hardware type N. Currently known types are: 3 - PCICC, 4 - PCICA, 5 - PCIXCC, 6 - CEX2A and 7 - CEX2C.

2006-08-15[PATCH] PATCH: 1 line 2.6.18 bugfix: modpost-64bit-fix.patchHans de Goede
There is a small but annoying bug in scripts/mod/file2alias.c which causes it to generate invalid aliases for input devices on 64 bit archs. This causes joydev.ko to not be automaticly loaded when inserting a joystick, resulting in a non working joystick (for the average user). In scripts/mod/file2alias.c is the following code for generating the input aliases: static void do_input(char *alias, kernel_ulong_t *arr, unsigned int min, unsigned int max) { unsigned int i; for (i = min; i < max; i++) if (arr[i / BITS_PER_LONG] & (1 << (i%BITS_PER_LONG))) sprintf(alias + strlen(alias), "%X,*", i); } On 32 bits systems, this correctly generates "0,*" for the first alias, "8,*" for the second etc. However on 64 bits it generates: "0,*20,*" resp "8,*28,*" Notice how it adds 20 + first entry (hex) ! to the list of hex codes, which is 32 more then the first entry, thus is because the bit test above wraps at 32 bits instead of 64. scripts/mod/file2alias.c, line 379 reads: if (arr[i / BITS_PER_LONG] & (1 << (i%BITS_PER_LONG))) That should be: if (arr[i / BITS_PER_LONG] & (1L << (i%BITS_PER_LONG))) Notice the added 'L' after the 1, otherwise that is an 32 bit int instead of a 64 bit long, and when that int gets shifted >= 32 times, appearantly the number by which to shift is wrapped at 5 bits ( % 32) causing it to test a bit 32 bits too low.

Here's the patch for modalias support for input classes.

The changes to input.h are to move the definitions needed by file2alias outside __KERNEL__.

2005-07-06[PATCH] openfirmware: generate device table for userspaceJeff Mahoney
This converts the usage of struct of_match to struct of_device_id, similar to pci_device_id. This allows a device table to be generated, which can be parsed by depmod(8) to generate a map file for module loading. In order for hotplug to work with macio devices, patches to module-init-tools and hotplug must be applied.

2005-04-22[PATCH] USB: scripts/mod/file2alias.c: handle numeric ranges for USB bcdDeviceRoman Kagan
Another attempt at that... The attached patch fixes the longstanding problem with USB bcdDevice numeric ranges incorrectly converted into patterns for MODULE_ALIAS generation. Previously it put both the lower and the upper limits into the pattern, dlXdhY, making it impossible to fnmatch against except for a few special cases, like dl*dh* or dlXdhX. The patch makes it generate multiple MODULE_ALIAS lines covering the whole range with fnmatch-able patterns. E.g. for a range between 0x0001 and 0x8345 it gives the following patterns: 000[1-9] 00[1-9]* 0[1-9]* [1-7]* 8[0-2]* 83[0-3]* 834[0-5] Since bcdDevice is 2 bytes wide = 4 digits in hex representation, the max no. of patters is 2 * 4 - 1 = 7. The values are BCD (binary-coded decimals) and not hex, so patterns using a dash seem to be safe regardless of locale collation order. The patch changes bcdDevice part of the alias from dlXdhY to dZ, but this shouldn't have big compatibility issues because fnmatch()-based modprobing hasn't yet been widely used. Besides, the most common (and almost the only working) case of dl*dh* becomes d* and thus continues to work. The patch is against 2.6.12-rc2, applies to -mm3 with an offset. The matching patch to fix the MODALIAS environment variable now generated by the usb hotplug function follows.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
