* uio: add the uio_aec driverBrandon Philips2009-03-243-0/+194
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | UIO driver for the Adrienne Electronics Corporation PCI time code device. This device differs from other UIO devices since it uses I/O ports instead of memory mapped I/O. In order to make it possible for UIO to work with this device a utility, uioport, can be used to read and write the ports. uioport is designed to be a setuid program and checks the permissions of the /dev/uio* node and if the user has write permissions it will use iopl and out*/in* to access the device.

* UIO: Add name attributes for mappings and port regionsHans J. Koch2009-03-243-4/+51
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a UIO device has several memory mappings, it can be difficult for userspace to find the right one. The situation becomes even worse if the UIO driver can handle different versions of a card that have different numbers of mappings. Benedikt Spranger has such cards and pointed this out to me. Thanks, Bene! To address this problem, this patch adds "name" sysfs attributes for each mapping. Userspace can use these to clearly identify each mapping. The name string is optional. If a driver doesn't set it, an empty string will be returned, so this patch won't break existing drivers. The same problem exists for port region information, so a "name" attribute is added there, too. Signed-off-by: Hans J. Koch <hjk@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* platform: introduce module id table for platform devicesEric Miao2009-03-244-1/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now platform_device is being widely used on SoC processors where the peripherals are attached to the system bus, which is simple enough. However, silicon IPs for these SoCs are usually shared heavily across a family of processors, even products from different companies. This makes the original simple driver name based matching insufficient, or simply not straight-forward. Introduce a module id table for platform devices, and makes it clear that a platform driver is able to support some shared IP and handle slight differences across different platforms (by 'driver_data'). Module alias is handled automatically when a MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() is defined. To not disturb the current platform drivers too much, the matched id entry is recorded and can be retrieved by platform_get_device_id().

* driver core: check bus->match without holding device lockMing Lei2009-03-243-13/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch moves bus->match out from driver_probe_device and does not hold device lock to check the match between a device and a driver. The idea has been verified by the commit 6cd495860901, which leads to a faster boot. But the commit 6cd495860901 has the following drawbacks: 1),only does the quick check in the path of __driver_attach->driver_probe_device, not in other paths; 2),for a matched device and driver, check the same match twice. It is a waste of cpu ,especially for some drivers with long device id table (eg. usb-storage driver). This patch adds a helper of driver_match_device to check the match in all paths, and testes the match only once.

* sysfs: Take sysfs_mutex when fetching the root inode.Eric W. Biederman2009-03-241-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | sysfs_get_inode ultimately calls sysfs_count_nlink when the a directory inode is fectched. sysfs_count_nlink needs to be called under the sysfs_mutex to guard against the unlikely but possible scenario that the root directory is changing as we are counting the number entries in it, and just in general to be consistent.

Certain architectures (powerpc, in this case) may generate unexpected relocation formats in response to this, preventing modules from loading. While the new relocation types should probably be handled, revert to the previous behaviour with regards to generation of .eh_frame sections.

Also, since we fully construct phy_bus_id in the _probe() routine, we no longer need ->phy_address and ->mdio_bus fields in ucc_geth_info structure. I wish the patch would be a bit shorter, but it seems like the only way to fix the issue in a sane way. Luckily, the patch has been tested with real PHYs and fixed-link, so no further regressions expected.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a locking bug in the dm9000 driver. It calls request_irq() without setting IRQF_DISABLED ... which is correct for handlers that support IRQ sharing, since that behavior is not guaranteed for shared IRQs. However, its IRQ handler then wrongly assumes that IRQs are blocked. So the fix just uses the right spinlock primitives in the IRQ handler. NOTE: this is a classic example of the type of bug which lockdep currently masks by forcibly setting IRQF_DISABLED on IRQ handlers that did not request that flag.
