device_attributes: add sysfs_attr_init() for dynamic attributes

2010-04-07T15:38:03+00:00

Made necessary by 6992f5334995af474c2b58d010d08bc597f0f2fe ("sysfs: Use
one lockdep class per sysfs attribute").

Prevents further "key xxx not in .data" bug-reports.  Although some
attributes could probably be converted to static ones, this is left for
people having hardware to test.

Found by this semantic patch:

@ init @
type T;
identifier A;
@@

        T {
                ...
                struct device_attribute A;
                ...
        };

@ main extends init @
expression E;
statement S;
identifier err;
T *name;
@@

        ... when != sysfs_attr_init(&name->A.attr);
(
+       sysfs_attr_init(&name->A.attr);
        if (device_create_file(E, &name->A))
                S
|
+       sysfs_attr_init(&name->A.attr);
        err = device_create_file(E, &name->A);
)

While reviewing, I put the initialization to apropriate places.

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

2010-03-30T13:02:32+00:00

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.

[POWERPC] windfarm: Fix windfarm thread freezer interaction

2007-11-08T03:15:34+00:00

When I fixed the windfarm freezer interaction first in commit
1ed2ddf380e19dafeec2150ca709ef7f4a67cd21, an earlier patch than the one
I came up with after comments was committed. This has come back to haunt
us now because commit d5d8c5976d6adeddb8208c240460411e2198b393 changed
the freezer to no long send signals. Fix it by removing the windfarm
thread's signal logic and restoring the original try_to_freeze().

We could simply revert 1ed2ddf380e19dafeec2150ca709ef7f4a67cd21 now
but I feel that the assertion that no signal is delivered to the
windfarm thread needs not be there.

usermodehelper: Tidy up waiting

2007-07-18T15:47:40+00:00

Rather than using a tri-state integer for the wait flag in
call_usermodehelper_exec, define a proper enum, and use that.  I've
preserved the integer values so that any callers I've missed should
still work OK.

Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by default

2007-07-17T17:23:02+00:00

Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves.  This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.

It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.

The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie.  to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE.  It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear.  Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

sysfs: kill unnecessary attribute->owner

2007-07-11T23:09:06+00:00

sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game.  After
deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper,
so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners.  Note that
often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to
accessing removed modules.

This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner.  Note that with
this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the
backing module from being unloaded.

For more info regarding lifetime rule cleanup, please read the
following message.
