2005-06-20[PATCH] sysfs: (driver/base) if show/store is missing return -EIODmitry Torokhov
sysfs: fix drivers/base so if an attribute doesn't implement show or store method read/write will return -EIO instead of 0. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-06-20[PATCH] kset_hotplug_ops->name shoudl return const char *Dmitry Torokhov
kobject: change name() method in kset_hotplug_ops return const char * since users shoudl not try to modify returned data. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-05-23[PATCH] driver core: restore event order for device_add()Kay Sievers
As a result of the split of the kobject-registration and the corresponding hotplug event, the order of events for device_add() has changed. This restores the old order, cause it confused some userspace applications.

2005-05-17[PATCH] Driver Core: remove driver model detach_stateDavid Brownell
The driver model has a "detach_state" mechanism that: - Has never been used by any in-kernel drive; - Is superfluous, since driver remove() methods can do the same thing; - Became buggy when the suspend() parameter changed semantics and type; - Could self-deadlock when called from certain suspend contexts; - Is effectively wasted documentation, object code, and headspace. This removes that "detach_state" mechanism; net code shrink, as well as a per-device saving in the driver model and sysfs.

2005-05-04[PATCH] Hotplug: Make dev->bus checking consistentAlexander Nyberg
Earlier in the same function dev->bus is checked before dereferenced, make consistent although I honestly don't know if dev->bus could ever be NULL Found by the Coverity tool Signed-off-by: Alexander Nyberg <alexn@dsv.su.se> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-04-18[PATCH] kobject/hotplug split - devices corekay.sievers@vrfy.org
kobject_add() and kobject_del() don't emit hotplug events anymore. Do it ourselves if we are finished populating the device directory. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
