* spi: at25 driver is for EEPROM not FLASHDavid Brownell2007-12-051-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Add comment to at25 driver that it's for EEPROM chips, not FLASH chips ... the AT25 series has both types of chip, and sometimes they're even pin-compatible. The command sets are different, as is the treatment of erasure. (FLASH needs explicit erasure, but with EEPROM it's implicit.) Note that all vendors seem to have this same confusion in their *25* series SPI memory parts.

* sysfs: add parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in .read/.write methods for ↵Zhang Rui2007-07-111-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sysfs binary attributes Well, first of all, I don't want to change so many files either. What I do: Adding a new parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in the .read/.write methods for the sysfs binary attributes. In fact, only the four lines change in fs/sysfs/bin.c and include/linux/sysfs.h do the real work. But I have to update all the files that use binary attributes to make them compatible with the new .read and .write methods. I'm not sure if I missed any. :( Why I do this: For a sysfs attribute, we can get a pointer pointing to the struct attribute in the .show/.store method, while we can't do this for the binary attributes. I don't know why this is different, but this does make it not so handy to use the binary attributes as the regular ones. So I think this patch is reasonable. :) Who benefits from it: The patch that exposes ACPI tables in sysfs requires such an improvement. All the table binary attributes share the same .read method. Parameter "struct bin_attribute *" is used to get the table signature and instance number which are used to distinguish different ACPI table binary attributes. Without this parameter, we need to offer different .read methods for different ACPI table binary attributes. This is impossible as there are various ACPI tables on different platforms, and we don't know what they are until they are loaded.

* sysfs: kill unnecessary attribute->ownerTejun Heo2007-07-111-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/510293 (tweaked by Greg to not delete the field just yet, to make it easier to merge things properly.)

* [PATCH] SPI eeprom driverDavid Brownell2007-02-121-0/+381
This is adds a simple SPI EEPROM driver, providing access to the EEPROM through sysfs much like the I2C "eeprom" driver ... except this driver supports write access, and multiple EEPROM sizes. From: "Tuppa, Walter" <walter.tuppa@siemens.com> Since I have EEPROMs on SPI with different address sizing, I made some changes to your at25.c to support them. Works perfectly. (Also includes a small bugfix for the "what size address" test.)
