Driver core: fix race in sysfs between sysfs_remove_file() and read()/write()

2007-02-07T18:37:13+00:00

This patch prevents a race between IO and removing a file from sysfs.
It introduces a list of sysfs_buffers associated with a file at the inode.
Upon removal of a file the list is walked and the buffers marked orphaned.
IO to orphaned buffers fails with -ENODEV. The driver can safely free
associated data structures or be unloaded.

sysfs_remove_bin_file: no return value, dump_stack on error

2006-09-26T04:08:39+00:00

Make sysfs_remove_bin_file() void.  If it detects an error,
printk the file name and call dump_stack().

sysfs_hash_and_remove() now returns an error code indicating
its success or failure so that sysfs_remove_bin_file() can
know success/failure.

Convert the only driver that checked the return value of
sysfs_remove_bin_file().

[PATCH] Make most file operations structs in fs/ const

2006-03-28T17:16:06+00:00

This is a conversion to make the various file_operations structs in fs/
const.  Basically a regexp job, with a few manual fixups

The goal is both to increase correctness (harder to accidentally write to
shared datastructures) and reducing the false sharing of cachelines with
things that get dirty in .data (while .rodata is nicely read only and thus
cache clean)

       read/write should return -EIO instead of 0 or -EINVAL.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

2005-04-16T22:20:36+00:00

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!
