No one uses sysdev_drivers. Because no one calls sysdev_driver_register
with NULL class.And it is difficult to imagine that someone want to implement a global
sysdev driver which is called with all sys_device on any kind of

The kernel creates a process for every event that is send, even when
there is no binary it could execute. We are needlessly creating around
200-300 failing processes during early bootup, until we have the chance
to disable it from userspace.This change allows us to disable /sbin/hotplug entirely, if you want to,
by setting UEVENT_HELPER_PATH="" in the kernel config.Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers

This changes the uevent buffer functions to use a struct instead of a
long list of parameters. It does no longer require the caller to do the
proper buffer termination and size accounting, which is currently wrong
in some places. It fixes a known bug where parts of the uevent
environment are overwritten because of wrong index calculations.Many thanks to Mathieu Desnoyers for finding bugs and improving the
error handling.Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers

As Stephen Hemminger says, this is a "belt and suspenders" patch that
zeroes the envp array at allocation time, even though all the users
should NULL-terminate it anyway (and we've hopefully fixed everybody
that doesn't do that).And we'll apparently clean the whole envp thing up for 2.6.24 anyway.
But let's just be robust, and do both this *and* make sure that all
users are doing the right thing.Acked-by: Stephen Hemminger

Is there a reason why the "online" file in the subdirectories for the CPUs
in /sys/devices/system isn't world-readable? I cannot imagine it to be
security relevant especially now that a getcpu() syscall can be used to
determine what CPUa thread runs on.The file is useful to correctly implement the sysconf() function to return
the number of online CPUs. In the presence of hotplug we currently cannot
provide this information. The patch below should to it.Signed-off-by: Ulrich Drepper

Introduce CONFIG_SUSPEND representing the ability to enter system sleep
states, such as the ACPI S3 state, and allow the user to choose SUSPEND
and HIBERNATION independently of each other.Make HOTPLUG_CPU be selected automatically if SUSPEND or HIBERNATION has
been chosen and the kernel is intended for SMP systems.Also, introduce CONFIG_PM_SLEEP which is automatically selected if
CONFIG_SUSPEND or CONFIG_HIBERNATION is set and use it to select the
code needed for both suspend and hibernation.The top-level power management headers and the ACPI code related to
suspend and hibernation are modified to use the new definitions (the
changes in drivers/acpi/sleep/main.c are, mostly, moving code to reduce
the number of ifdefs).There are many other files in which CONFIG_PM can be replaced with
CONFIG_PM_SLEEP or even with CONFIG_SUSPEND, but they can be updated in
the future.Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

pm_power_off_prepare") caused problems in the poweroff path, as reported by
YOSHIFUJI Hideaki / 吉藤英明.Generally, sysdev_shutdown() should be called after the ACPI preparation for
powering the system off. To make it happen, we can separate sysdev_shutdown()
from device_shutdown() and call it directly wherever necessary.Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

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.Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui

devt_attr and uevent_attr are either allocated dynamically with or
embedded in device and class_device as they needed their owner field
set to the module implementing the driver. Now that sysfs implements
immediate disconnect and owner field removed from struct attribute,
there is no reason to do this. Remove these attributes from
[class_]device and use static attribute structures instead.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo
