Don't fail bus_attach_device() if the device cannot be bound.
If dev->driver has been specified, reset it to NULL if device_bind_driver()
failed and add the device as an unbound device. As a result,
bus_attach_device() now cannot fail, and we can remove some checking from
device_add().Also remove an unneeded check in bus_rescan_devices_helper().

Make multithreaded probing work per subsystem instead of per driver.
It doesn't make much sense to probe the same device for multiple drivers in
parallel (after all, only one driver can bind to the device). Instead, create
a probing thread for each device that probes the drivers one after another.
Also make the decision to use multi-threaded probe per bus instead of per
device and adapt the pci code.Signed-off-by: Cornelia Huck

If "name" of a device_type is specified, the uevent will
contain the device_type name in the DEVTYPE variable.
This helps userspace to distingiush between different types
of devices, belonging to the same subsystem.Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers

Driver core: use attribute groups in struct device_type
Attribute groups are more flexible than attribute lists
(an attribute list can be represented by anonymous group)
so switch struct device_type to use them.Also rework attribute creation for devices so that they all
cleaned up properly in case of errors.Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov

We get two per-bus sysfs files:
ls-l /sys/subsystem/usb
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 2007-02-16 16:42 devices
drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 0 2007-02-16 14:55 drivers
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 2007-02-16 16:42 drivers_autoprobe
--w------- 1 root root 4096 2007-02-16 16:42 drivers_probeThe flag "drivers_autoprobe" controls the behavior of the bus to bind
devices by default, or just initialize the device and leave it alone.The command "drivers_probe" accepts a bus_id and the bus tries to bind a
driver to this device.Systems who want to control the driver binding with udev, switch off the
bus initiated probing:
echo 0 > /sys/subsystem/usb/drivers_autoprobe
echo 0 > /sys/subsystem/pcmcia/drivers_autoprobe
...and initiate the probing with udev rules like:
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{subsystem/drivers_probe}="$kernel"
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="pcmcia", ATTR{subsystem/drivers_probe}="$kernel"
...Custom driver binding can happen in earlier rules by something like:
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", \
ATTRS{idVendor}=="1234", ATTRS{idProduct}=="5678" \
ATTR{subsystem/drivers//bind}="$kernel"This is intended to solve the modprobe.conf mess with "install-rules", custom
bind/unbind-scripts and all the weird things people invented over the years.
It should also provide the functionality "libusual" was supposed to do.With udev, one can just write a udev rule to drive all USB-disks at the
third port of USB-hub by the "ub" driver, and everything else by
usb-storage. One can also instruct udev to bind different wireless
drivers to identical cards - just selected by the pcmcia slot-number, and
whatever ...To use the mentioned rules, it needs udev version 106, to be able to
write ATTR{}="$kernel" to sysfs files.Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

As the new-style class devices (as opposed to old-style struct
class_device) are becoming more widely used, I noticed that the
dev_printk-based functions are not working properly with these.
New-style class devices have no driver nor bus, almost by definition,
and as a result dev_driver_string(), which is used as the first
parameter of dev_printk, resolves to an empty string. This causes
entries like the following to show in my logs:i2c-2: adapter [SMBus stub driver] registered
Notice the unaesthetical leading whitespace. In order to fix this
problem, I suggest that we extend dev_driver_string to deal with
new-style class devices:Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

- 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

s390 machines provide hardware support for creating Linux dumps on SCSI
disks. For creating a dump a special purpose dump Linux is used. The first
32 MB of memory are saved by the hardware before the dump Linux is
booted. Via an SCLP interface, the saved memory can be accessed from
Linux. This patch exports memory and registers of the crashed Linux to
userspace via a debugfs file. For more information refer to

Major features:
1) Tagged queuing support.
2) Will properly negotiate for synchronous transfers even on
devices that reject the wide negotiation message, such as
CDROMs
3) Significantly lower kernel stack usage in interrupt
handler path by elimination of function vector arrays,
replaced by a top-level switch statement state machine.
4) Uses generic scsi infrastructure as much as possible to
avoid code duplication.
5) Automatic request of sense data in response to CHECK_CONDITION
6) Portable to other platforms using ESP such as DEC and Sun3
systems.Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
