* msi-laptop: depends on RFKILLRandy Dunlap2010-03-081-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | msi-laptop uses rfkill*() interfaces so it should depend on RFKILL. msi-laptop.c:(.text+0x1fcd1b): undefined reference to `rfkill_alloc' msi-laptop.c:(.text+0x1fcd76): undefined reference to `rfkill_register' msi-laptop.c:(.text+0x1fcdc8): undefined reference to `rfkill_destroy' msi-laptop.c:(.text+0x1fcdd9): undefined reference to `rfkill_unregister' This repairs "msi-laptop: Detect 3G device exists by standard ec command", which is in some gregkh tree.

* msi-laptop: Support some MSI 3G netbook that is need load SCMLee, Chun-Yi2010-03-081-0/+238
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some MSI 3G netbook only have one fn key to control Wlan/Bluetooth/3G, those netbook will load the SCM (windows app) to disable the original Wlan/Bluetooth control by BIOS when user press fn key, then control Wlan/Bluetooth/3G by SCM (software control by OS). Without SCM, user cann't on/off 3G module on those 3G netbook. On Linux, msi-laptop driver will do the same thing to disable the original BIOS control, then might need use HAL or other userland application to do the software control that simulate with SCM. e.g. MSI N034 netbook Signed-off-by: Lee, Chun-Yi <jlee@novell.com> Cc: Lennart Poettering <mzxreary@0pointer.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

* Driver core: create lock/unlock functions for struct deviceGreg Kroah-Hartman2010-03-0813-63/+76
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the future, we are going to be changing the lock type for struct device (once we get the lockdep infrastructure properly worked out) To make that changeover easier, and to possibly burry the lock in a different part of struct device, let's create some functions to lock and unlock a device so that no out-of-core code needs to be changed in the future. This patch creates the device_lock/unlock/trylock() functions, and converts all in-tree users to them.

* sysfs: Serialize updates to the vfs inodeEric W. Biederman2010-03-081-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The vfs depends upon filesystem methods to update the vfs inode. Sysfs adds to the normal number of places where the vfs inode is updated by also updatng the vfs inode in sysfs_refresh_inode. Typically the inode mutex is used to serialize updates to the vfs inode, but grabbing the inode mutex in sysfs_permission and sysfs_getattr causes deadlocks, because sometimes the vfs calls those operations with the inode mutex held. Therefore sysfs can not use the inode mutex to serial updates to the vfs inode. The sysfs_mutex is acquired in all of the routines where sysfs updates the vfs inode, and with a small change we can consistently protext sysfs vfs inode updates with the sysfs_mutex. To protect the sysfs vfs inode updates with the sysfs_mutex simply requires extending the scope of sysfs_mutex in sysfs_setattr over inode_setattr, and over inode_change_ok (so we have an unchanging inode when we perform the check).

* sysfs: Document sysfs_attr_init and sysfs_bin_attr_initEric W. Biederman2010-03-081-0/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I have added a new requirement to the external sysfs interface that dynamically allocated sysfs attributes must call sysfs_attr_init if lockdep is enabled. For the time being callying sysfs_attr_init is only mandatory if lockdep is enabled, so we can live with a few unconverted instances until we find them all. As this is part of the public interface of sysfs it is a good idea to document these pseudo functions so someone inspeciting the code can find out what has happened. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | These are the non-static sysfs attributes that exist on my test machine. Fix them to use sysfs_attr_init or sysfs_bin_attr_init as appropriate.

* sysfs: Use one lockdep class per sysfs attribute.Eric W. Biederman2010-03-082-2/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Acknowledge that the logical sysfs rwsem has one instance per sysfs attribute with different locking depencencies for different attributes. There is a sysfs idiom where writing to one sysfs file causes the addition or removal of other sysfs files. Lumping all of the sysfs attributes together in one lock class causes lockdep to generate lots of false positives. This introduces the requirement that non-static sysfs attributes need to be initialized with sysfs_attr_init or sysfs_bin_attr_init. Strictly speaking this requirement only exists when lockdep is enabled, and when lockdep is enabled we get a bit fat warning if this requirement is not met. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It turns out that holding an active reference on a directory is pointless. The purpose of the active references are to allows us to block when removing sysfs entries that have custom methods so we don't remove modules while running modular code and to keep those custom methods from accessing data structures after the files have been removed. Further sysfs_remove_dir remove all elements in the directory before removing the directory itself, so there is no chance we will remove a directory with active children. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A pointer to a probe callback is passed to the core via platform_driver_register and so the function must not disappear when the .init sections are discarded. Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y) unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an oops as does a device being registered late.

* sysfs: Cache the last sysfs_dirent to improve readdir scalability v2Eric W. Biederman2010-03-081-22/+60
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When sysfs_readdir stops short we now cache the next sysfs_dirent to return to user space in filp->private_data. There is no impact on the rest of sysfs by doing this and in the common case it allows us to pick up exactly where we left off with no seeking. Additionally I drop and regrab the sysfs_mutex around filldir to avoid a page fault abritrarily increasing the hold time on the sysfs_mutex. v2: Returned to using INT_MAX as the EOF condition. seekdir is ambiguous unless all directory entries have a unique f_pos value.
