Kay Sievers 312c004d36 [PATCH] driver core: replace "hotplug" by "uevent"
Leave the overloaded "hotplug" word to susbsystems which are handling
real devices. The driver core does not "plug" anything, it just exports
the state to userspace and generates events.

Kay Sievers a7fd67062e [PATCH] add sysfs attr to re-emit device hotplug event
A "coldplug + udevstart" can be simple like this:
  for i in /sys/block/*/*/uevent; do echo 1 > $i; done
  for i in /sys/class/*/*/uevent; do echo 1 > $i; done
  for i in /sys/bus/*/devices/*/uevent; do echo 1 > $i; done

David Brownell 0ac85241eb [PATCH] driver model wakeup flags
This is a refresh of an earlier patch to add "wakeup" support to the
PM core model.  This provides per-device bus-neutral control of the
use of wakeup events.

  * "struct device_pm_info" has two bits that are initialized as
    part of setting up the enclosing struct device:
      - "can_wakeup", reflecting hardware capabilities
      - "may_wakeup", the policy setting (when CONFIG_PM)

  * There's a writeable sysfs "wakeup" file, with one of two values:
      - "enabled", when the policy is to allow wakeup
      - "disabled", when the policy is not to allow it
      - "" if the device can't currently issue wakeups

By default, wakeup is enabled on all devices that support it.  If its
driver doesn't support it ... treat it as a bug.  :)

James Bottomley 34bb61f9dd [PATCH] fix klist semantics for lists which have elements removed on traversal
The problem is that klists claim to provide semantics for safe traversal of
lists which are being modified.  The failure case is when traversal of a
list causes element removal (a fairly common case).  The issue is that
although the list node is refcounted, if it is embedded in an object (which
is universally the case), then the object will be freed regardless of the
klist refcount leading to slab corruption because the klist iterator refers
to the prior element to get the next.

The solution is to make the klist take and release references to the
embedding object meaning that the embedding object won't be released until
the list relinquishes the reference to it.

(akpm: fast-track this because it's needed for the 2.6.13 scsi merge)

James Bottomley d856f1e337 [PATCH] klist: fix klist to have the same klist_add semantics as list_head
at the moment, the list_head semantics are

list_add(node, head)

whereas current klist semantics are

klist_add(head, node)

This is bound to cause confusion, and since klist is the newcomer, it
should follow the list_head semantics.

I also added missing include guards to klist.h

mochel@digitalimplant.org 94e7b1c5ff [PATCH] Add a klist to struct device_driver for the devices bound to it.
- Use it in driver_for_each_device() instead of the regular list_head and stop using
  the bus's rwsem for protection.
- Use driver_for_each_device() in driver_detach() so we don't deadlock on the
  bus's rwsem.
- Remove ->devices.
- Move klist access and sysfs link access out from under device's semaphore, since
  they're synchronized through other means.

mochel@digitalimplant.org af70316af1 [PATCH] Add a semaphore to struct device to synchronize calls to its driver.
This adds a per-device semaphore that is taken before every call from the core to a
driver method. This prevents e.g. simultaneous calls to the ->suspend() or ->resume()
and ->probe() or ->release(), potentially saving a whole lot of headaches.

It also moves us a step closer to removing the bus rwsem, since it protects the fields
in struct device that are modified by the core.

David Brownell 0b405a0f7e [PATCH] Driver Core: remove driver model detach_state
The driver model has a "detach_state" mechanism that:

 - Has never been used by any in-kernel drive;
 - Is superfluous, since driver remove() methods can do the same thing;
 - Became buggy when the suspend() parameter changed semantics and type;
 - Could self-deadlock when called from certain suspend contexts;
 - Is effectively wasted documentation, object code, and headspace.

This removes that "detach_state" mechanism; net code shrink, as well
as a per-device saving in the driver model and sysfs.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
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!
