From 9cd43611ccfb46632bfa7d19f688924ea93f1613 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Emese Revfy Date: Thu, 31 Dec 2009 14:52:51 +0100 Subject: kobject: Constify struct kset_uevent_ops Constify struct kset_uevent_ops. This is part of the ops structure constification effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al. Benefits of this constification: * prevents modification of data that is shared (referenced) by many other structure instances at runtime * detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional) modification attempts on archs that enforce read-only kernel data at runtime * potentially better optimized code as the compiler can assume that the const data cannot be changed * the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata and therefore exclude them from false sharing Signed-off-by: Emese Revfy Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- include/linux/kobject.h | 10 +++++----- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) (limited to 'include/linux/kobject.h') diff --git a/include/linux/kobject.h b/include/linux/kobject.h index 58ae8e00fcdd..57a1eaae9096 100644 --- a/include/linux/kobject.h +++ b/include/linux/kobject.h @@ -118,9 +118,9 @@ struct kobj_uevent_env { }; struct kset_uevent_ops { - int (*filter)(struct kset *kset, struct kobject *kobj); - const char *(*name)(struct kset *kset, struct kobject *kobj); - int (*uevent)(struct kset *kset, struct kobject *kobj, + int (* const filter)(struct kset *kset, struct kobject *kobj); + const char *(* const name)(struct kset *kset, struct kobject *kobj); + int (* const uevent)(struct kset *kset, struct kobject *kobj, struct kobj_uevent_env *env); }; @@ -155,14 +155,14 @@ struct kset { struct list_head list; spinlock_t list_lock; struct kobject kobj; - struct kset_uevent_ops *uevent_ops; + const struct kset_uevent_ops *uevent_ops; }; extern void kset_init(struct kset *kset); extern int __must_check kset_register(struct kset *kset); extern void kset_unregister(struct kset *kset); extern struct kset * __must_check kset_create_and_add(const char *name, - struct kset_uevent_ops *u, + const struct kset_uevent_ops *u, struct kobject *parent_kobj); static inline struct kset *to_kset(struct kobject *kobj) -- cgit v1.2.3 From 52cf25d0ab7f78eeecc59ac652ed5090f69b619e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Emese Revfy Date: Tue, 19 Jan 2010 02:58:23 +0100 Subject: Driver core: Constify struct sysfs_ops in struct kobj_type Constify struct sysfs_ops.
