  • b9075fa96   treewide: use __printf not __attribute__((format(printf,...))) ... Browse Code »

    Standardize the style for compiler based printf format verification.
    Standardized the location of __printf too.

    Done via script and a little typing.

    $ grep -rPl --include=*.[ch] -w "__attribute__" * | \
    grep -vP "^(tools|scripts|include/linux/compiler-gcc.h)" | \
    xargs perl -n -i -e 'local $/; while (<>) { s/\b__attribute__\s*\(\s*\(\s*format\s*\(\s*printf\s*,\s*(.+)\s*,\s*(.+)\s*\)\s*\)\s*\)/__printf($1, $2)/g ; print; }'

    When CONFIG_HOTPLUG is not enabled, the inline function add_uevent_var()
    needs to have its __attribute__ before the function name/parameters,
    otherwise there are syntax errors.

  • c25d1dfbd   kobject: Introduce kset_find_obj_hinted. ... Browse Code »

    One call chain getting to kset_find_obj is:
    link_mem_sections()
    find_mem_section()
    kset_find_obj()

    This is done during boot. The memory sections were added in a linearly
    increasing order and link_mem_sections tends to utilize them in that
    same linear order.

    Introduce a kset_find_obj_hinted which is passed the result of the
    previous kset_find_obj which it uses for a quick "is the next object
    our desired object" check before falling back to the old behavior.

  • 608b4b954   netns: Teach network device kobjects which namespace they are in. ... Browse Code »

    The problem. Network devices show up in sysfs and with the network
    namespace active multiple devices with the same name can show up in
    the same directory, ouch!

    To avoid that problem and allow existing applications in network namespaces
    to see the same interface that is currently presented in sysfs, this
    patch enables the tagging directory support in sysfs.

    By using the network namespace pointers as tags to separate out the
    the sysfs directory entries we ensure that we don't have conflicts
    in the directories and applications only see a limited set of
    the network devices.

  • be867b194   sysfs: Comment sysfs directory tagging logic ... Browse Code »

    Add some in-line comments to explain the new infrastructure, which
    was introduced to support sysfs directory tagging with namespaces.
    I think an overall description someplace might be good too, but it
    didn't really seem to fit into Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.txt,
    which appears more geared toward users, rather than maintainers, of
    sysfs.

    (Tejun, please let me know if I can make anything clearer or failed
    altogether to comment something that should be commented.)

  • 52cf25d0a   Driver core: Constify struct sysfs_ops in struct kobj_type ... Browse Code »

    Constify struct sysfs_ops.

    This is part of the ops structure constification
    effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.

    Benefits of this constification:

    * prevents modification of data that is shared
    (referenced) by many other structure instances
    at runtime

    * detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)
    modification attempts on archs that enforce
    read-only kernel data at runtime

    * potentially better optimized code as the compiler
    can assume that the const data cannot be changed

    * the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata
    and therefore exclude them from false sharing

  • f67f129e5   Driver core: implement uevent suppress in kobject ... Browse Code »

    This patch implements uevent suppress in kobject and removes it
    from struct device, based on the following ideas:

    1,Uevent sending should be one attribute of kobject, so suppressing it
    in kobject layer is more natural than in device layer. By this way,
    we can do it for other objects embedded with kobject.

    2,It may save several bytes for each instance of struct device.(On my
    omap3(32bit ARM) based box, can save 8bytes per device object)

    This patch also introduces dev_set|get_uevent_suppress() helpers to
    set and query uevent_suppress attribute in case to help kobject
    as private part of struct device in future.

    [This version is against the latest driver-core patch set of Greg,please
    ignore the last version.]

    Add a kobject to create /sys/kernel/mm when sysfs is mounted. The kobject
    will exist regardless. This will allow for the hugepage related sysfs
    directories to exist under the mm "subsystem" directory. Add an ABI file
    appropriately.
