\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	This patch contains the following possible cleanups: - #if 0 the following unused global function: - subsys_remove_file() - remove the following unused EXPORT_SYMBOL's: - kset_find_obj - subsystem_init - remove the following unused EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL: - kobject_add_dir Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
*	[PATCH] sysfs: Allow sysfs attribute files to be pollable	NeilBrown	2006-04-14	1	-0/+1
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	It works like this: Open the file Read all the contents. Call poll requesting POLLERR or POLLPRI (so select/exceptfds works) When poll returns, close the file and go to top of loop. or lseek to start of file and go back to the 'read'. Events are signaled by an object manager calling sysfs_notify(kobj, dir, attr); If the dir is non-NULL, it is used to find a subdirectory which contains the attribute (presumably created by sysfs_create_group). This has a cost of one int per attribute, one wait_queuehead per kobject, one int per open file. The name "sysfs_notify" may be confused with the inotify functionality. Maybe it would be nice to support inotify for sysfs attributes as well? This patch also uses sysfs_notify to allow /sys/block/md*/md/sync_action to be pollable Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
*	[PATCH] kobject_add_dir	Jun'ichi Nomura	2006-03-20	1	-0/+38
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Adding kobject_add_dir() function which creates a subdirectory for a given kobject. Signed-off-by: Jun'ichi Nomura <j-nomura@ce.jp.nec.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
*	[PATCH] Kobject: provide better warning messages when people do stupid things	Greg Kroah-Hartman	2006-03-20	1	-8/+14
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Now that kobject_add() is used more than kobject_register() the kernel wasn't always letting people know that they were doing something wrong. This change fixes this. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
*	[PATCH] kobject: don't oops on null kobject.name	Chuck Ebbert	2006-02-06	1	-0/+4
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	kobject_get_path() will oops if one of the component names is NULL. Fix that by returning NULL instead of oopsing. Signed-off-by: Chuck Ebbert <76306.1226@compuserve.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
*	[PATCH] kobject_add() must have a valid name in order to succeed.	Greg Kroah-Hartman	2006-02-06	1	-0/+5
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	So we might as well check to verify this, and let the user know that something is wrong if they didn't do it correctly, instead of oopsing later on in kobject_get_name() or somewhere else. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
*	[PATCH] driver core: replace "hotplug" by "uevent"	Kay Sievers	2006-01-05	1	-2/+2
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Leave the overloaded "hotplug" word to susbsystems which are handling real devices. The driver core does not "plug" anything, it just exports the state to userspace and generates events.

*	[PATCH] fix missing includes	Tim Schmielau	2005-10-31	1	-0/+1
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after this disentangling (patch to follow later). However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this. In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real patch. This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts will pick it up again in the next round.

\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	kobject: make kobject's name const char * since users should not attempt to change it (except by calling kobject_rename). Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

*	[PATCH] kobject/hotplug split - kobject add/remove	kay.sievers@vrfy.org	2005-04-19	1	-4/+3
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	kobject_add() and kobject_del() don't emit hotplug events anymore. The user should do it itself if it has finished populating the device directory. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
*	Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	2005-04-17	1	-0/+544
	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!
