2010-03-08[S390] smsgiucv_app: deliver z/VM CP special messages (SMSG) as ueventsHendrik Brueckner
The smsgiucv_app driver registers a callback with the smsgiucv driver to receive z/VM CP special messages (SMSG) starting with "APP". When the callback is called for special messages, the driver creates an uevent for the received message. The uevent consists of additional environment data containing the message prefix ("APP"), message sender, and message content. udev rules can be used to trigger application specific actions through matching the content or sender of the special message.

2010-03-07Driver core: create lock/unlock functions for struct deviceGreg Kroah-Hartman
In the future, we are going to be changing the lock type for struct device (once we get the lockdep infrastructure properly worked out) To make that changeover easier, and to possibly burry the lock in a different part of struct device, let's create some functions to lock and unlock a device so that no out-of-core code needs to be changed in the future. This patch creates the device_lock/unlock/trylock() functions, and converts all in-tree users to them.

2010-03-07sysfs: Serialize updates to the vfs inodeEric W. Biederman
The vfs depends upon filesystem methods to update the vfs inode. Sysfs adds to the normal number of places where the vfs inode is updated by also updatng the vfs inode in sysfs_refresh_inode. Typically the inode mutex is used to serialize updates to the vfs inode, but grabbing the inode mutex in sysfs_permission and sysfs_getattr causes deadlocks, because sometimes the vfs calls those operations with the inode mutex held. Therefore sysfs can not use the inode mutex to serial updates to the vfs inode. The sysfs_mutex is acquired in all of the routines where sysfs updates the vfs inode, and with a small change we can consistently protext sysfs vfs inode updates with the sysfs_mutex. To protect the sysfs vfs inode updates with the sysfs_mutex simply requires extending the scope of sysfs_mutex in sysfs_setattr over inode_setattr, and over inode_change_ok (so we have an unchanging inode when we perform the check).

I have added a new requirement to the external sysfs interface that dynamically allocated sysfs attributes must call sysfs_attr_init if lockdep is enabled. For the time being callying sysfs_attr_init is only mandatory if lockdep is enabled, so we can live with a few unconverted instances until we find them all.

2010-03-07sysfs: Use one lockdep class per sysfs attribute.Eric W. Biederman
Acknowledge that the logical sysfs rwsem has one instance per sysfs attribute with different locking depencencies for different attributes. There is a sysfs idiom where writing to one sysfs file causes the addition or removal of other sysfs files. Lumping all of the sysfs attributes together in one lock class causes lockdep to generate lots of false positives. This introduces the requirement that non-static sysfs attributes need to be initialized with sysfs_attr_init or sysfs_bin_attr_init. Strictly speaking this requirement only exists when lockdep is enabled, and when lockdep is enabled we get a bit fat warning if this requirement is not met. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2010-03-07sysfs: Remove sysfs_get/put_active_twoEric W. Biederman
It turns out that holding an active reference on a directory is pointless. The purpose of the active references are to allows us to block when removing sysfs entries that have custom methods so we don't remove modules while running modular code and to keep those custom methods from accessing data structures after the files have been removed. Further sysfs_remove_dir remove all elements in the directory before removing the directory itself, so there is no chance we will remove a directory with active children. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

Ben Nizette, the author of this driver, told me in a private mail that this project has been cancelled. He suggested to remove the driver for now, and will come back with a new version should the hardware really exist. This patch completely removes the driver. Signed-off-by: Hans J.

2010-03-07UIO: minor Kconfig fixesJohn Ogness
Two trivial fixes for the Userspace IO Kconfig file: 1) uio_sercos3 is a PCI driver, so let it depend on PCI. 2) "default n" under UIO_PCI_GENERIC is luxury since it is already the default.

2010-03-07UIO: Add a driver for Hilscher netX-based fieldbus cardsHans J. Koch
This patch adds a Userspace IO driver for netX-based fieldbus cards by Hilscher (see http://www.hilscher.com). ATM, cifX and comX cards are supported. The userspace part for this driver is provided by Hilscher and should come with the card. The driver is in use for several months now and has been tested by people at Hilscher and Linutronix.
