drivers-core: make structured logging play nice with dynamic-debug

2012-08-16T17:20:53Z

commit c4e00daaa96d3a0786f1f4fe6456281c60ef9a16 changed __dev_printk in a way that broke dynamic-debug's ability to control the dynamic prefix of dev_dbg(dev,..), but not dev_dbg(NULL,..) or pr_debug(..), which is why it wasnt noticed sooner. When dev==NULL, __dev_printk() just calls printk(), which just works. But otherwise, it assumed that level was always a string like "" and just plucked out the 'L', ignoring the rest. However, dynamic_emit_prefix() adds "[tid] module:func:line:" to the string, those additions all got lost.

driver core: fix shutdown races with probe/remove(v3)

2012-07-17T01:04:25Z

Firstly, .shutdown callback may touch a uninitialized hardware if dev->driver is set and .probe is not completed. Secondly, device_shutdown() may dereference a null pointer to cause oops when dev->driver is cleared after it has been checked in device_shutdown(). So just hold device lock and its parent lock(if it has) to fix the races. Cc: Alan Stern Signed-off-by: Ming Lei Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

driver core: always handle dpm_order

If !dev->class, device_move() does not respect the dpm_order. Fix it to do so. Acked-by: Rafael J. Wysocki Signed-off-by: Rabin Vincent Reviewed-by: Srinidhi Kasagar [Fixed a small dangling label compile warning] Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

driver-core: extend dev_printk() to pass structured data

2012-05-08T00:12:03Z

Extends dev_printk() to attach a dictionary with a device identifier and the driver core subsystem name to logged messages, which makes dev_prink() reliable machine-readable. In addition to the printed plain text message, it creates these properties: SUBSYSTEM= - the driver-core subsytem name DEVICE= b12:8 - block dev_t c127:3 - char dev_t n8 - netdev ifindex +sound:card0 - subsystem:devname Tested-by: William Douglas Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

2012-03-21T17:30:03Z

Pull core device tree changes for Linux v3.4 from Grant Likely: "This branch contains a minor documentation addition, a utility function for parsing string properties needed by some of the new ARM platforms, disables dynamic DT code that isn't used anywhere but on a few PPC machines, and exports DT node compatible data to userspace via UEVENT properties. Nothing earth shattering here." * tag 'dt-for-linus' of git://git.secretlab.ca/git/linux-2.6: of: Only compile OF_DYNAMIC on PowerPC pseries and iseries arm/dts: OMAP3: Add omap3evm and am335xevm support drivercore: Output common devicetree information in uevent of: Add of_property_match_string() to find index into a string list

driver core: move the deferred probe pointer into the private area

2012-03-08T20:17:22Z

Nothing outside of the driver core needs to get to the deferred probe pointer, so move it inside the private area of 'struct device' so no one tries to mess around with it. Cc: Grant Likely Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
