drivercore: revert addition of of_match to struct device

2011-05-18T18:32:23+00:00

Commit b826291c, "drivercore/dt: add a match table pointer to struct
device" added an of_match pointer to struct device to cache the
of_match_table entry discovered at driver match time.  This was unsafe
because matching is not an atomic operation with probing a driver.  If
two or more drivers are attempted to be matched to a driver at the
same time, then the cached matching entry pointer could get
overwritten.

This patch reverts the of_match cache pointer and reworks all users to
call of_match_device() directly instead.

PM: Remove sysdev suspend, resume and shutdown operations

2011-05-11T19:37:15+00:00

Since suspend, resume and shutdown operations in struct sysdev_class
and struct sysdev_driver are not used any more, remove them.  Also
drop sysdev_suspend(), sysdev_resume() and sysdev_shutdown() used
for executing those operations and modify all of their users
accordingly.  This reduces kernel code size quite a bit and reduces
its complexity.

driver core: Add the device driver-model structures to kerneldoc

2011-05-07T01:01:05+00:00

Add the comments to the structure bus_type, device_driver, device,
class to device.h for generating the driver-model kerneldoc. With another patch
these all removed from the files in Documentation/driver-model/ since
they are out of date. That will keep things up to date and provide a better way
to document this stuff.

driver core: let dev_set_drvdata return int instead of void as it can fail

2011-04-23T00:09:13+00:00

Before commit

	b402843 (Driver core: move dev_get/set_drvdata to drivers/base/dd.c)

calling dev_set_drvdata with dev=NULL was an unchecked error. After some
discussion about what to return in this case removing the check (and so
producing a null pointer exception) seems fine.

drivers: make device_type const

2011-04-19T23:45:51+00:00

The device_type structure does not contain data that changes
during usage and should be const. This allows devices to declare
the struct const.

I have patches to change all the subsystems, but need the infra
structure change first.

device: add dev_WARN_ONCE

2011-04-19T23:45:50+00:00

it's quite useful to print the device name
on the stack dump caused by WARN(), but
there are other cases where we might want
to use WARN_ONCE.

Introduce a helper similar to dev_WARN() for
that case too.

Introduce ARCH_NO_SYSDEV_OPS config option (v2)

2011-03-23T21:16:41+00:00

Introduce Kconfig option allowing architectures where sysdev
operations used during system suspend, resume and shutdown have been
completely replaced with struct sycore_ops operations to avoid
building sysdev code that will never be used.

Make callbacks in struct sys_device and struct sysdev_driver depend
on ARCH_NO_SYSDEV_OPS to allows us to verify if all of the references
have been actually removed from the code the given architecture
depends on.

Make x86 select ARCH_NO_SYSDEV_OPS.
