* Driver core: add bus_sort_breadthfirst() functionGreg Kroah-Hartman2008-10-161-0/+50
| | | | | | | | | | | | The PCI core wants to reorder the devices in the bus list. So move this functionality out of the pci core and into the driver core so that anyone else can also do this if needed. This also lets us change how struct device is attached to drivers in the future without messing with the PCI core.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | struct bus_type is static everywhere in the kernel. This moves the kobject in the structure out of it, and a bunch of other private only to the driver core fields are now moved to a private structure. This lets us dynamically create the backing kobject properly and gives us the chance to be able to document to users exactly how to use the struct bus_type as there are no fields they can improperly access.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game. After deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper, so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners.

* Driver core: remove unneeded completion from driver release pathGreg Kroah-Hartman2007-04-271-2/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Driver core: udev triggered device-<>driver bindingKay Sievers2007-04-271-6/+78
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

* Driver core: add notification of bus eventsBenjamin Herrenschmidt2006-12-011-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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).

* Driver core: Remove unneeded routines from driver coreAlan Stern2006-09-251-17/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as783) simplifies the driver core slightly by removing four unnecessary _get and _put methods. It is vital that when a driver is removed from its bus's klist of registered drivers, or when a device is removed from a driver's klist of bound devices, that the klist updates complete synchronously. Otherwise the kernel might try binding an unregistered driver to a newly-registered device, or adding a device to the klist for a new driver before it has been removed from the old driver's klist. Since the removals must be synchronous, they don't need to update any reference counts. Hence the _get and _put methods can be dispensed with.

* Driver core: Fix potential deadlock in driver coreAlan Stern2006-09-251-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a potential deadlock in the driver core. It boils down to the fact that bus_remove_device() calls klist_remove() instead of klist_del(), thereby waiting until the reference count of the klist_node in the bus's klist of devices drops to 0. The refcount can't reach 0 so long as a modprobe process is trying to bind a new driver to the device being removed, by calling __driver_attach(). The problem is that __driver_attach() tries to acquire the device's parent's semaphore, but the caller of bus_remove_device() is quite likely to own that semaphore already. It isn't sufficient just to replace klist_remove() with klist_del(). Doing so runs the risk that the device would remain on the bus's klist of devices for some time, and so could be bound to another driver even after it was unregistered. What's needed is a new way to distinguish whether or not a device is registered, based on a criterion other than whether its klist_node is linked into the bus's klist of devices. That way driver binding can fail when the device is unregistered, even if it is still linked into the klist. This patch (as782) implements the solution, by adding a new bitflag to indiate when a struct device is registered, by testing the flag before allowing a driver to bind a device, and by changing the definition of the device_is_registered() inline.

* [PATCH] Driver core: add generic "subsystem" link to all devicesKay Sievers2006-06-211-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | Like the SUBSYTEM= key we find in the environment of the uevent, this creates a generic "subsystem" link in sysfs for every device. Userspace usually doesn't care at all if its a "class" or a "bus" device. This provides an unified way to determine the subsytem of a device, regardless of the way the driver core has created it.
