This is almost a rewrite of the driver-model/platform.txt documentation; the previous text was obsolete (for several years), evidently it never got updated to match the change from being a PC "legacy_bus" to the more widely used core bus for most embedded systems.

This defines a new platform_driver_probe() method allowing the driver's probe() method, and its support code+data, to safely live in __init sections for typical system configurations. Many system-on-chip processors could benefit from this API, to the tune of recovering hundreds to thousands of bytes per driver. That's memory which is currently wasted holding code which can never be called after system startup, yet can not be removed. It can't be removed because of the linkage requirement that pointers to init section code (like, ideally, probe support) must not live in other sections (like driver method tables) after those pointers would be invalid.

Provide a function device_move() to move a device to a new parent device. Add auxilliary functions kobject_move() and sysfs_move_dir(). kobject_move() generates a new uevent of type KOBJ_MOVE, containing the previous path (DEVPATH_OLD) in addition to the usual values. For this, a new interface kobject_uevent_env() is created that allows to add further environmental data to the uevent at the kobject layer.

since most of the files in sysfs are text files, it would be nice, if the "store" function called during sysfs_write_file() gets a zero terminated string / data. The current implementation seems not to ensure this. (But only if it is the first time the zeroed buffer page is allocated.) So the buffer can be scanned by sscanf() easily, for example. This patch simply sets a \0 char behind the data in buffer->page. Signed-off-by: Thomas Maier <balagi@justmail.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

Take return value of sysfs_create_group() into account. That function got called in case of CPU_ONLINE notification. Since callbacks are not allowed to fail on CPU_ONLINE notification do the sysfs group creation on CPU_UP_PREPARE notification. Also remember if creation succeeded in a bitmask. So it's possible to know whether it's legal to call sysfs_remove_group or not. In addition some other minor stuff: - since CPU_UP_PREPARE might fail add CPU_UP_CANCELED handling as well. - use hotcpu_notifier instead of register_hotcpu_notifier. - #ifdef code that isn't needed in the !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU case.

Move the call to platform_notify_remove() to after the call to bus_remove_device(), where it belongs. It's bogus to notify the platform of removal while drivers are still attached to the device and possibly still operating since the platform might use this callback to tear down some resources used by the driver (ACPI bits, iommu table, ...)

Change ACPI to use dev_archdata instead of firmware_data This patch changes ACPI to use the new dev_archdata on i386, x86_64 and ia64 (is there any other arch using ACPI ?) to store it's acpi_handle. It also removes the firmware_data field from struct device as this was the only user.

Converts from using struct "class_device" to "struct device" making everything show up properly in /sys/devices/ with symlinks from the /sys/class directory. It also makes the struct sound_card to show up as a "real" device where all the different sound class devices are placed as childs and different card attribute files can hang off of. /sys/class/sound is still a flat directory, but the symlink targets of all devices belonging to the same card, point the the /sys/devices tree below the new card device object.

Provide a way to support older versions of udev that are shipped in older distros.

I finally did as you suggested and added the notifier to the struct bus_type itself. There are still problems to be expected is something attaches to a bus type where the code can hook in different struct device sub-classes (which is imho a big bogosity but I won't even try to argue that case now) but it will solve nicely a number of issues I've had so far. That also means that clients interested in registering for such notifications have to do it before devices are added and after bus types are registered. Fortunately, most bus types that matter for the various usage scenarios I have in mind are registerd at postcore_initcall time, which means I have a really nice spot at arch_initcall time to add my notifiers. There are 4 notifications provided. Device being added (before hooked to the bus) and removed (failure of previous case or after being unhooked from the bus), along with driver being bound to a device and about to be unbound. The usage I have for these are: - The 2 first ones are used to maintain a struct device_ext that is hooked to struct device.firmware_data. This structure contains for now a pointer to the Open Firmware node related to the device (if any), the NUMA node ID (for quick access to it) and the DMA operations pointers & iommu table instance for DMA to/from this device. For bus types I own (like IBM VIO or EBUS), I just maintain that structure directly from the bus code when creating the devices. But for bus types managed by generic code like PCI or platform (actually, of_platform which is a variation of platform linked to Open Firmware device-tree), I need this notifier. - The other two ones have a completely different usage scenario. I have cases where multiple devices and their drivers depend on each other. For example, the IBM EMAC network driver needs to attach to a MAL DMA engine which is a separate device, and a PHY interface which is also a separate device. They are all of_platform_device's (well, about to be with my upcoming patches) but there is no say in what precise order the core will "probe" them and instanciate the various modules. The solution I found for that is to have the drivers for emac to use multithread_probe, and wait for a driver to be bound to the target MAL and PHY control devices (the device-tree contains reference to the MAL and PHY interface nodes, which I can then match to of_platform_devices). Right now, I've been polling, but with that notifier, I can more cleanly wait (with a timeout of course).

Move declaration of struct pxa2xx_udc_mach_info from include/asm-arm/arch-pxa/udc.h to new file include/asm-arm/mach/udc_pxa2xx.h.
