We don't need a "default" ktype for a kset. We should set this explicitly every time for each kset. This change is needed so that we can make ksets dynamic, and cleans up one of the odd, undocumented assumption that the kset/kobject/ktype model has. This patch is based on a lot of help from Kay Sievers.

Also add a kobject_init_and_add function which bundles up what a lot of the current callers want to do all at once, and it properly handles the memory usages, unlike kobject_register(); Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

This is what the kobject_add function is going to become. Add this to the kernel and then we can convert the tree over to use it. Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

No one except the kobject core calls it so make the function static. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

Kay pointed out that kobject_set_name was being very stupid, doing two allocations for every call, when it should just be using the kernel function kvasprintf() instead. This change adds the internal kobject_set_name_vargs() function, which other follow-on patches will be using. Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

The IBM icom serial driver is using a kobject only for reference counting, nothing else. So switch it to use a kref instead, which is all that is needed, and is much smaller.

Instead of walking from the source down to the root of sysfs, and back to the target, we stop at the first directory the source and the target share. This link: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb1/1-0:1.0/ep_81 pointed to: ../../../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-0:1.0/usb_endpoint/usbdev2.1_ep81 now it just points to: usb_endpoint/usbdev1.1_ep81 Thanks to Denis Cheng for bringing this up, and sending the initial patch.

It isn't that hard to add simple kset attributes, so don't go through all the gyrations of creating your own object type and show and store functions. Just use the functions that are already present. This makes things much simpler. Note, the version_str string violates the "one value per file" rule for sysfs. I suggest changing this now (individual files per type supported is one suggested way.)

Rafael J. Wysocki authored
This patch reorganizes the way suspend and resume notifications are sent to drivers. The major changes are that now the PM core acquires every device semaphore before calling the methods, and calls to device_add() during suspends will fail, while calls to device_del() during suspends will block. It also provides a way to safely remove a suspended device with the help of the PM core, by using the device_pm_schedule_removal() callback introduced specifically for this purpose, and updates two drivers (msr and cpuid) that need to use it.
