Commits 71c29bd5c235 ("IB/uverbs: Add devnode method to set path/mode")
and c3af0980ce01 ("IB: Add devnode methods to cm_class and umad_class")
added devnode methods that set the mode.
However, these methods don't check for a NULL mode, and so we get a
crash when unloading modules because devtmpfs_delete_node() calls
device_get_devnode() with mode == NULL.
Add the missing checks.

We want udev to create a device node under /dev/infiniband with permission 0666 for uverbsX devices, so add a devnode method to set the appropriate info. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <roland@purestorage.com>
Several RDMA user-access drivers have file_operations structures with no .llseek method set. None of the drivers actually do anything with f_pos, so this means llseek is essentially a NOP, instead of returning an error as leaving other file_operations methods unimplemented would do. This is mostly harmless, except that a NULL .llseek means that default_llseek() is used, and this function grabs the BKL, which we would like to avoid. Since llseek does nothing useful on these files, we would like it to return an error to userspace instead of silently grabbing the BKL and succeeding. For nearly all of the file types, we take the belt-and-suspenders approach of setting the .llseek method to no_llseek and also calling nonseekable_open(); the exception is the uverbs_event files, which are created with anon_inode_getfile(), which already sets f_mode the same way as nonseekable_open() would. This work is motivated by Arnd Bergmann's bkl-removal tree. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

Convert some drivers who export a single string as class attribute to the new class_attr_string functions. This removes redundant code all over. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
Passing the attribute to the low level IO functions allows all kinds of cleanups, by sharing low level IO code without requiring an own function for every piece of data. Also drivers can extend the attributes with own data fields and use that in the low level function. This makes the class attributes the same as sysdev_class attributes and plain attributes. This will allow further cleanups in drivers. Full tree sweep converting all users. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

The anon_inodes interface has been split to allow creating a bare (non-installed) file pointer and also extended to allow specifying O_RDONLY in the flags. This makes it a suitable replacement for the private "infinibandeventfs" pseudo-filesystem used by uverbs, and this replacement saves a small chunk of boilerplate code.
