ffa6a7054d Driver core: Fix device_move() vs. dpm list ordering, v2
dpm_list currently relies on the fact that child devices will
be registered after their parents to get a correct suspend
order. Using device_move() however destroys this assumption, as
an already registered device may be moved under a newly registered
one.

This patch adds a new argument to device_move(), allowing callers
to specify how dpm_list should be adapted.

f67f129e51 Driver core: implement uevent suppress in kobject
This patch implements uevent suppress in kobject and removes it
from struct device, based on the following ideas:

1,Uevent sending should be one attribute of kobject, so suppressing it
in kobject layer is more natural than in device layer. By this way,
we can do it for other objects embedded with kobject.

2,It may save several bytes for each instance of struct device.(On my
omap3(32bit ARM) based box, can save 8bytes per device object)

This patch also introduces dev_set|get_uevent_suppress() helpers to
set and query uevent_suppress attribute in case to help kobject
as private part of struct device in future.

[This version is against the latest driver-core patch set of Greg,please
ignore the last version.]

ce21c7bcd7 driver core: fix passing platform_data
We will remove platform_data field from struct device until
all platform devices pass its specific data from platfom_device
and all platform drivers use platform specific data passed by
platform_device->platform_data. This kind of conversion will
need a long time, for thousands of files is affected.

To make the conversion easily, we allow platform specific data
passed by struct device or struct platform_device and platform
driver may use it from struct device or struct platform_device.

006f4571a1 driver core: move platform_data into platform_device
This patch moves platform_data from struct device into
struct platform_device, based on the two ideas:

1. Now all platform_driver is registered by platform_driver_register,
   which makes probe()/release()/... of platform_driver passed parameter
   of platform_device *, so platform driver can get platform_data from
   platform_device;

2. Other kind of devices do not need to use platform_data, we can
   decrease size of device if moving it to platform_device.

Taking into consideration of thousands of files to be fixed and they
can't be finished in one night(maybe it will take a long time), so we
keep platform_data in device to allow two kind of cases coexist until
all platform devices pass its platfrom data from
platform_device->platform_data.

All patches to do this kind of conversion are welcome.

b23530ebc3 driver core: remove polling for driver_probe_done(v5)
This patch removes 100ms polling for driver_probe_done in
wait_for_device_probe(), and uses wait_event() instead.
Removing polling in fs initialization may lead to
a faster boot.

This patch also changes the return type of wait_for_device_done()
from int to void.

f48f3febb2 driver-core: do not register a driver with bus_type not registered
If the bus_type is not registerd, driver_register to that bus will cause oops.

I found this bug when test built-in usb serial drivers (ie. aircable driver)
with 'nousb' cmdline params.

In this patch:
1. set the bus->p=NULL when bus_register failed and unregisterd.
2. if bus->p is NULL, driver_register BUG_ON will be triggered.

57fee4a58f platform: introduce module id table for platform devices
Now platform_device is being widely used on SoC processors where the
peripherals are attached to the system bus, which is simple enough.

However, silicon IPs for these SoCs are usually shared heavily across
a family of processors, even products from different companies.  This
makes the original simple driver name based matching insufficient, or
simply not straight-forward.

Introduce a module id table for platform devices, and makes it clear
that a platform driver is able to support some shared IP and handle
slight differences across different platforms (by 'driver_data').
Module alias is handled automatically when a MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE()
is defined.

To not disturb the current platform drivers too much, the matched id
entry is recorded and can be retrieved by platform_get_device_id().

49b420a13f driver core: check bus->match without holding device lock
This patch moves bus->match out from driver_probe_device and
does not hold device lock to check the match between a device
and a driver.

The idea has been verified by the commit 6cd4958609,
which leads to a faster boot. But the commit 6cd4958609 has
the following drawbacks: 1),only does the quick check in
the path of __driver_attach->driver_probe_device, not in other
paths; 2),for a matched device and driver, check the same match
twice. It is a waste of cpu ,especially for some drivers with long
device id table (eg. usb-storage driver).

This patch adds a helper of driver_match_device to check the match
in all paths, and testes the match only once.

4750498099 mm: get_nid_for_pfn() returns int
get_nid_for_pfn() returns int

Presumably the (nid < 0) case has never happened.

We do know that it is happening on one system while creating a symlink for
a memory section so it should also happen on the same system if
unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes() were called to remove the same symlink.

The test was actually added in response to a problem with an earlier
version reported by Yasunori Goto where one or more of the leading pages
of a memory section on the 2nd node of one of his systems was
uninitialized because I believe they coincided with a memory hole.

That earlier version did not ignore uninitialized pages and determined
the nid by considering only the 1st page of each memory section.  This
caused the symlink to the 1st memory section on the 2nd node to be
incorrectly created in /sys/devices/system/node/node0 instead of
/sys/devices/system/node/node1.  The problem was fixed by adding the
test to skip over uninitialized pages.

I suspect we have not seen any reports of the non-removal
of a symlink due to the incorrect declaration of the nid
variable in unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes() because
  - systems where a memory section could have an uninitialized
    range of leading pages are probably rare.
  - memory remove is probably not done very frequently on the
    systems that are capable of demonstrating the problem.
  - lingering symlink(s) that should have been removed may
    have simply gone unnoticed.

7143f7a1a3 driver core: Convert '/' to '!' in dev_set_name()
Commit 3ada8b7e ("block: struct device - replace bus_id with dev_name(),
dev_set_name()") deleted the code in register_disk() that changed a '/'
to a '!' in the device name when registering a disk, but dev_set_name()
does not perform this conversion.

This leads to amusing problems with disks that have '/' in their names:
for example a failure to boot with the root partition on a cciss device,
even though the kernel says it knows about the root device:

    VFS: Cannot open root device "cciss/c0d0p6" or unknown-block(0,0)
    Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available partitions:
    6800        71652960 cciss/c0d0 driver: cciss
      6802               1 cciss/c0d0p2
      6805         2931831 cciss/c0d0p5
      6806        34354908 cciss/c0d0p6
    6810        71652960 cciss/c0d1 driver: cciss

Fix this by adding code to change '/' to '!' in dev_set_name() to handle
this until dev_set_name() is converted to use kobject_set_name().

b13d3720ec topology: Fix sparc64 build.
Due to changeset ba84be2338 ("remove
linux/hardirq.h from asm-generic/local.h") the sparc64 build started
failing on drivers/base/topology.c:

  drivers/base/topology.c: In function ‘show_physical_package_id’:
  drivers/base/topology.c:103: error: implicit declaration of function ‘cpu_data’
  drivers/base/topology.c:103: error: request for member ‘proc_id’ in something not a structure or union
  drivers/base/topology.c: In function ‘show_core_id’:
  drivers/base/topology.c:106: error: request for member ‘core_id’ in something not a structure or union

Adding the obvious fix of including asm/cpudata.h into asm/topology.h on
sparc64 doesn't fix it, in fact it makes things worse because of the
header file dependency chain:

	linux/gfp.h --> linux/mmzone.h --> linux/topology.h -->
	asm/topology.h --> asm/cpudata.h --> linux/percpu.h -->
	linux/slab.h

which results in:

  include/linux/slub_def.h: In function ‘kmalloc_large’:
  include/linux/slub_def.h:209: error: implicit declaration of function ‘__get_free_pages’
  include/linux/slub_def.h:209: error: ‘__GFP_COMP’ undeclared (first use in this function)
  include/linux/slub_def.h:209: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
  include/linux/slub_def.h:209: error: for each function it appears in.)
  include/linux/slub_def.h:209: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size

The simplest thing to do is to add yet another one-off hack like parts
of the guilty changeset did, by putting an explicit linux/hardirq.h
include into drivers/base/topology.c

c04fc586c1 mm: show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfs
Show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfs

Add /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/memoryY symlinks for all
the memory sections located on nodeX.  For example:
/sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory135 -> ../../memory/memory135
indicates that memory section 135 resides on node1.

Also revises documentation to cover this change as well as updating
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-memory to include descriptions
of memory hotremove files 'phys_device', 'phys_index', and 'state'
that were previously not described there.

In addition to it always being a good policy to provide users with
the maximum possible amount of physical location information for
resources that can be hot-added and/or hot-removed, the following
are some (but likely not all) of the user benefits provided by
this change.
Immediate:
  - Provides information needed to determine the specific node
    on which a defective DIMM is located.  This will reduce system
    downtime when the node or defective DIMM is swapped out.
  - Prevents unintended onlining of a memory section that was
    previously offlined due to a defective DIMM.  This could happen
    during node hot-add when the user or node hot-add assist script
    onlines _all_ offlined sections due to user or script inability
    to identify the specific memory sections located on the hot-added
    node.  The consequences of reintroducing the defective memory
    could be ugly.
  - Provides information needed to vary the amount and distribution
    of memory on specific nodes for testing or debugging purposes.
Future:
  - Will provide information needed to identify the memory
    sections that need to be offlined prior to physical removal
    of a specific node.

Symlink creation during boot was tested on 2-node x86_64, 2-node
ppc64, and 2-node ia64 systems.  Symlink creation during physical
memory hot-add tested on a 2-node x86_64 system.

0aa0dc41bf driver core: add root_device_register()
Add support for allocating root device objects which group
device objects under /sys/devices directories.

Also add a sysfs 'module' symlink which points to the owner
of the root device object. This symlink will be used in virtio
to allow userspace to determine which virtio bus implementation
a given device is associated with.

[Includes suggestions from Cornelia Huck]

ec0676ee28 Driver core: move the bus notifier call points
This patch (as1184) changes the location of the notifications in
device_add() and device_del().  Now the BUS_NOTIFY_ADD_DEVICE message
is sent after dpm_sysfs_add(), which is necessary for clients that
want to add attributes to the power/ subdirectory.  The
BUS_NOTIFY_DEL_DEVICE message is correspondingly moved before
dpm_sysfs_remove().

adf094931f PM: Simplify the new suspend/hibernation framework for devices
PM: Simplify the new suspend/hibernation framework for devices

Following the discussion at the Kernel Summit, simplify the new
device PM framework by merging 'struct pm_ops' and
'struct pm_ext_ops' and removing pointers to 'struct pm_ext_ops'
from 'struct platform_driver' and 'struct pci_driver'.

After this change, the suspend/hibernation callbacks will only
reside in 'struct device_driver' as well as at the bus type/
device class/device type level.  Accordingly, PCI and platform
device drivers are now expected to put their suspend/hibernation
callbacks into the 'struct device_driver' embedded in
'struct pci_driver' or 'struct platform_driver', respectively.

by device drivers to map non-linear host memory into dma-linear
addresses to prevent sgather-gather DMA. UIO may be another user for
this API.
