sysfs: convert BUG_ON to WARN_ON

2019-01-07T07:53:32+00:00

It's rude to crash the system just because the developer did something
wrong, as it prevents them from usually even seeing what went wrong.

So convert the few BUG_ON() calls that have snuck into the sysfs code
over the years to WARN_ON() to make it more "friendly".  All of these
are able to be recovered from, so it makes no sense to crash.

sysfs: symlink: export sysfs_create_link_nowarn()

2018-03-20T01:14:26+00:00

The sysfs_create_link_nowarn() is going to be used in phylib framework in
subsequent patch which can be built as module. Hence, export
sysfs_create_link_nowarn() to avoid build errors.

sysfs: use SPDX identifiers

2018-01-23T09:19:10+00:00

Move the license "mark" of the sysfs files to be in SPDX form, instead
of the custom text that it currently is in.  This is in a quest to get
rid of the 700+ different ways we say "GPLv2" in the kernel tree.

kernfs: s/sysfs/kernfs/ in constants

2013-12-12T01:39:20+00:00

kernfs has just been separated out from sysfs and we're already in
full conflict mode.  Nothing can make the situation any worse.  Let's
take the chance to name things properly.

This patch performs the following renames.

* s/SYSFS_DIR/KERNFS_DIR/
* s/SYSFS_KOBJ_ATTR/KERNFS_FILE/
* s/SYSFS_KOBJ_LINK/KERNFS_LINK/
* s/SYSFS_{TYPE_FLAGS}/KERNFS_{TYPE_FLAGS}/
* s/SYSFS_FLAG_{FLAG}/KERNFS_{FLAG}/
* s/sysfs_type()/kernfs_type()/
* s/SD_DEACTIVATED_BIAS/KN_DEACTIVATED_BIAS/

This patch is strictly rename only and doesn't introduce any
functional difference.

kernfs: drop s_ prefix from kernfs_node members

2013-12-11T23:43:48+00:00

kernfs has just been separated out from sysfs and we're already in
full conflict mode.  Nothing can make the situation any worse.  Let's
take the chance to name things properly.

s_ prefix for kernfs members is used inconsistently and a misnomer
now.  It's not like kernfs_node is used widely across the kernel
making the ability to grep for the members particularly useful.  Let's
just drop the prefix.

kernfs: s/sysfs_dirent/kernfs_node/ and rename its friends accordingly

2013-12-11T23:28:36+00:00

kernfs has just been separated out from sysfs and we're already in
full conflict mode.  Nothing can make the situation any worse.  Let's
take the chance to name things properly.

This patch performs the following renames.

* s/sysfs_elem_dir/kernfs_elem_dir/
* s/sysfs_elem_symlink/kernfs_elem_symlink/
* s/sysfs_elem_attr/kernfs_elem_file/
* s/sysfs_dirent/kernfs_node/
* s/sd/kn/ in kernfs proper
* s/parent_sd/parent/
* s/target_sd/target/
* s/dir_sd/parent/
* s/to_sysfs_dirent()/rb_to_kn()/
* misc renames of local vars when they conflict with the above

Because md, mic and gpio dig into sysfs details, this patch ends up
modifying them.  All are sysfs_dirent renames and trivial.  While we
can avoid these by introducing a dummy wrapping struct sysfs_dirent
around kernfs_node, given the limited usage outside kernfs and sysfs
proper, I don't think such workaround is called for.

This patch is strictly rename only and doesn't introduce any
functional difference.

- mic / gpio renames were missing.  Spotted by kbuild test robot.

sysfs, kernfs: implement kernfs_ns_enabled()

2013-11-30T02:41:28+00:00

fs/sysfs/symlink.c::sysfs_delete_link() tests @sd->s_flags for
SYSFS_FLAG_NS.  Let's add kernfs_ns_enabled() so that sysfs doesn't
have to test sysfs_dirent flag directly.  This makes things tidier for
kernfs proper too.

This is purely cosmetic.

v2: To avoid possible NULL deref, use noop dummy implementation which
    always returns false when !CONFIG_SYSFS.

sysfs, kernfs: introduce sysfs_root_sd

2013-11-30T02:09:27+00:00

Currently, it's assumed that there's a single kernfs hierarchy in the
system anchored at sysfs_root which is defined as a global struct.  To
allow other users of kernfs, this will be made dynamic.  Introduce a
new global variable sysfs_root_sd which points to &sysfs_root and
convert all &sysfs_root users.

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior difference.

sysfs, kernfs: move symlink core code to fs/kernfs/symlink.c

2013-11-30T02:08:39+00:00

Move core symlink code to fs/kernfs/symlink.c.  fs/sysfs/symlink.c now
only contains sysfs wrappers around kernfs interfaces.  The respective
declarations in fs/sysfs/sysfs.h are moved to
fs/kernfs/kernfs-internal.h.

This is pure relocation.

sysfs, kernfs: introduce kernfs[_find_and]_get() and kernfs_put()

2013-11-30T01:55:10+00:00

Introduce kernfs interface for finding, getting and putting
sysfs_dirents.

* sysfs_find_dirent() is renamed to kernfs_find_ns() and lockdep
  assertion for sysfs_mutex is added.

* sysfs_get_dirent_ns() is renamed to kernfs_find_and_get().

* Macro inline dancing around __sysfs_get/put() are removed and
  kernfs_get/put() are made proper functions implemented in
  fs/sysfs/dir.c.

While the conversions are mostly equivalent, there's one difference -
kernfs_get() doesn't return the input param as its return value.  This
change is intentional.  While passing through the input increases
writability in some areas, it is unnecessary and has been shown to
cause confusion regarding how the last ref is handled.
