- uses a kset in "struct class" to keep track of all directories
belonging to this class
- merges with the /sys/devices/virtual logic.
- removes the namespace-dir if the last member of that class
leaves the directory.There may be locking or refcounting fixes left, I stopped when it seemed
to work with network and sound modules. :)From: Kay Sievers

There is no prompt for CONFIG_STACKTRACE, so FAULT_INJECTION cannot be
selected without LOCKDEP enabled. (found by Paolo 'Blaisorblade'
Giarrusso)In order to fix such broken Kconfig dependency, this patch splits up the
stacktrace filter support for fault injection by new Kconfig option, which
enables to use fault injection on the architecture which doesn't have
general stacktrace support.Cc: "Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso"

We frequently need the maximum number of possible processors in order to
allocate arrays for all processors. So far this was done using
highest_possible_processor_id(). However, we do need the number of
processors not the highest id. Moreover the number was so far dynamically
calculated on each invokation. The number of possible processors does not
change when the system is running. We can therefore calculate that number
once.Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter

The function 'kobject_add' tries to verify the name of
a new kobject instance is properly set before continuing.
if (!kobj->k_name)
kobj->k_name = kobj->name;
if (!kobj->k_name) {
pr_debug("kobject attempted to be registered with no name!\n");
WARN_ON(1);
return -EINVAL;
}
The statement:
if (!kobj->k_name) {
pr_debug("kobject attempted to be registered with no name!\n");
WARN_ON(1);
return -EINVAL;
}
is useless the way it is right now, because it can never be true. I
think the
code was intended to be:
if (!kobj->k_name)
kobj->k_name = kobj->name;
if (!*kobj->k_name) {
pr_debug("kobject attempted to be registered with no name!\n");
WARN_ON(1);
return -EINVAL;
}
because this would make sure the kobj->name buffer has something in it.
So the missing '*' is just a typo. Although, I would much prefer
expression like:
if (*kobj->k_name == '\0') {
pr_debug("kobject attempted to be registered with no name!\n");
WARN_ON(1);
return -EINVAL;
}because this would've made the intention clear, in this patch I just restore
the missing '*' without changing the coding style of the function.Signed-off-by: Martin Stoilov
