  • Since OSS driver creates the device entries for /dev/audio* and
    /dev/dspW* by itself without coping with sound_core, it leads to
    conflicts with others and let sysfs spewing warnings.

    This patch rewrites the registration part of OSS driver to use
    the standard method also for additional minor devices.

  • All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
    nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
    .llseek pointer.

    The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
    and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
    the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
    the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

    New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
    and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted
    to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
    relies on calling seek on the device file.

    The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
    comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
    chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
    be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
    seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

    Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
    the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

    Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
    patch that does all this.

  • This moves the lock_kernel() call from soundcore_open
    to the individual OSS device drivers, where we can deal
    with it one driver at a time if needed, or just kill
    off the drivers.

    All core components in ALSA already provide
    adequate locking in their open()-functions
    and do not require the big kernel lock, so
    there is no need to add the BKL there.

  • Most of this function is protected by the sound_loader_lock.
    We can push down the BKL to this call out err = file->f_op->open(inode,file);

    In order to build the sound core without the BKL, we
    will need to push the lock_kernel() call into the ~20
    device drivers that register their file operations.

  • This allows subsytems to provide devtmpfs with non-default permissions
    for the device node. Instead of the default mode of 0600, null, zero,
    random, urandom, full, tty, ptmx now have a mode of 0666, which allows
    non-privileged processes to access standard device nodes in case no
    other userspace process applies the expected permissions.

    This also fixes a wrong assignment in pktcdvd and a checkpatch.pl complain.

  • If any OSS support is enabled, regardless of built-in or module,
    sound_core claims full OSS major number (that is, the old 0-255
    region) to trap open attempts and request sound modules using custom
    module aliases. This feature is redundant as chrdev already has such
    mechanism. This preemptive claiming prevents alternative OSS
    implementation.

    The custom module aliases are scheduled to be removed and the previous
    patch made soundcore emit the standard chrdev aliases too to help
    transition.

    This patch schedule the feature for removal in a year and makes it
    optional so that developers and distros can try new things in the
    meantime without rebuilding the kernel. The pre-claiming can be
    turned off by using SOUND_OSS_CORE_PRECLAIM and/or kernel parameter
    soundcore.preclaim_oss.

    As this allows sound minors to be individually grabbed by other users,
    this patch updates sound_insert_unit() such that if registering
    individual device region fails, it tries the next available slot.

    For details on removal plan, please read the entry added by this patch
    in feature-removal-schedule.txt .

  • Till now missing OSS devices emitted sound-slot/service-* module
    alises instead of the standard char-major-* if a missing device number
    is opened if soundcore is loaded. The custom module aliases don't
    have any inherent benefit than backward compatibility.

    sound-slot/service-* module aliases is scheduled to be removed and to
    help the transition this patch makes soundcore emit the standard
    module alises along with the custom ones.

  • sound/sound_core.c implements soundcore.ko and contains two parts -
    sound_class which is shared by both ALSA and OSS and device
    redirection support for OSS. It's always compiled when any sound
    support is enabled although it's necessary only when OSS (the actual
    one or emulation) is enabled. This is slightly wasteful and as device
    redirection always registers character device region for major 14, it
    prevents alternative implementation.

    This patch introduces a new config SOUND_OSS_CORE which is selected
    iff OSS support is actually necessary and build the OSS core part
    conditionally.

    If OSS is disabled, soundcore merely contains sound_class but leaving
    it that way seems to be the simplest approach as otherwise sound_class
    should be in ALSA core file if OSS is disabled but should be in
    soundcore if OSS is enabled. Also, there's also the user confusion
    factor.

  • Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const
    moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
    dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
    these shared resources.

  • Converts from using struct "class_device" to "struct device" making
    everything show up properly in /sys/devices/ with symlinks from the
    /sys/class directory.

    It also makes the struct sound_card to show up as a "real" device
    where all the different sound class devices are placed as childs
    and different card attribute files can hang off of. /sys/class/sound is
    still a flat directory, but the symlink targets of all devices belonging
    to the same card, point the the /sys/devices tree below the new card
    device object.

  • 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!
