* usbmon: Extended text APIPete Zaitcev2007-04-273-64/+313
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a new text API, codenamed '1u', which captures more URB fields than old '1t' interface did. Also the '1u' text API is compatible with the future "bus zero" extension.

| * define platform wakeup hook, use in pci_enable_wake()David Brownell2007-04-273-17/+63
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This defines a platform hook to enable/disable a device as a wakeup event source. It's initially for use with ACPI, but more generally it could be used whenever enable_irq_wake()/disable_irq_wake() don't suffice. The hook is called -- if available -- inside pci_enable_wake(); and the semantics of that call are enhanced so that support for PCI PME# is no longer needed. It can now work for devices with "legacy PCI PM", when platform support allows it. (That support would use some board-specific signal for for the same purpose as PME#.)

| * security: prevent permission checking of file removal via sysfs_remove_group()James Morris2007-04-273-22/+57
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Prevent permission checking from being performed when the kernel wants to unconditionally remove a sysfs group, by introducing an kernel-only variant of lookup_one_len(), lookup_one_len_kern(). Additionally, as sysfs_remove_group() does not check the return value of the lookup before using it, a BUG_ON has been added to pinpoint the cause of any problems potentially caused by this (and as a form of annotation).

| * s390: cio: Delay uevents for subchannelsCornelia Huck2007-04-271-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We often have the situation that we register a subchannel and start device recognition, only to find out that the device is not usable after all, which triggers an unregister of the subchannel. This often happens on hundreds of subchannels on a LPAR, leading to a storm of events which aren't of any use. Therefore, use uevent_suppress to delay the KOBJ_ADD uevent for a subchannel until we know that its ccw_device is to be registered.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The completion in the driver release path is due to ancient history in the _very_ early 2.5 days when we were not tracking the module reference count of attributes. It is not needed at all and can be removed. Note, we now have an empty release function for the driver structure. This is due to the fact that drivers are statically allocated in the system at this point in time, something which I want to change in the future. But remember, drivers are really code, which is reference counted by the module, unlike devices, which are data and _must_ be reference counted properly in order to work correctly.

| * Driver core: add name to device_typeKay Sievers2007-04-272-0/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If "name" of a device_type is specified, the uevent will contain the device_type name in the DEVTYPE variable. This helps userspace to distingiush between different types of devices, belonging to the same subsystem.

| * driver core: Use attribute groups in struct device_typeDmitry Torokhov2007-04-272-47/+70
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Driver core: use attribute groups in struct device_type Attribute groups are more flexible than attribute lists (an attribute list can be represented by anonymous group) so switch struct device_type to use them. Also rework attribute creation for devices so that they all cleaned up properly in case of errors.
