sysdev: detect multiple driver registrations

2008-04-20T02:10:24Z

I've just found how easy it is to accidentally register a sysdev_driver for two different classes. When this happens, bad things happen as the sysdev_driver structure keeps has the list entry for the driver registration. The following patch makes a WARN_ON() if this happens, although I think BUG_ON or returning -EAGAIN could also be valid responses to this.

sysdev: fix problem with sysdev_class being re-registered

2008-03-10T23:33:32Z

We need to initialize the kobject for a sysdev_class as it could have been recycled (stupid static kobjects...) We also do the same thing in case sysdev devices are being re-registered. Thanks to Balaji Rao for pointing out the problem. Signed-off-by: Balaji Rao Tested-by: Mikael Pettersson Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Driver core: change sysdev classes to use dynamic kobject names

2008-01-25T04:40:40Z

All kobjects require a dynamically allocated name now. We no longer need to keep track if the name is statically assigned, we can just unconditionally free() all kobject names on cleanup. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Kobject: convert drivers/* from kobject_unregister() to kobject_put()

2008-01-25T04:40:40Z

There is no need for kobject_unregister() anymore, thanks to Kay's kobject cleanup changes, so replace all instances of it with kobject_put(). Cc: Kay Sievers Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Kobject: change drivers/base/sys.c to use kobject_init_and_add

2008-01-25T04:40:28Z

Stop using kobject_register, as this way we can control the sending of the uevent properly, after everything is properly initialized. Cc: Kay Sievers Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

kset: convert /sys/devices/system to use kset_create

2008-01-25T04:40:15Z

Dynamically create the kset instead of declaring it statically. Cc: Kay Sievers Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

kset: convert /sys/devices to use kset_create

2008-01-25T04:40:15Z

Dynamically create the kset instead of declaring it statically. We also rename devices_subsys to devices_kset to catch all users of the variable. Cc: Kay Sievers Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

kobject: remove struct kobj_type from struct kset

2008-01-25T04:40:10Z

We don't need a "default" ktype for a kset. We should set this explicitly every time for each kset. This change is needed so that we can make ksets dynamic, and cleans up one of the odd, undocumented assumption that the kset/kobject/ktype model has. This patch is based on a lot of help from Kay Sievers. Nasty bug in the block code was found by Dave Young Cc: Kay Sievers Cc: Dave Young Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
