2005-09-05[PATCH] Driver core: small cleanup; remove check for NULL before kfree() in ↵Jesper Juhl1-4/+2
driver core Remove needless checking of variable for NULL before calling kfree() on it. Applies to 2.6.13-rc6-git9 Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl <jesper.juhl@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-09-05[PATCH] Driver core: link device and all class devices derived from it.Dmitry Torokhov1-2/+31
Driver core: link device and all class devices derived from it. To ease the task of locating class devices derived from a certain device create symlinks from parent device to its class devices. Change USB host class device name from usbX to usb_hostX to avoid conflict when creating aforementioned links. Tweaked by Greg to have the symlink be "class_name:class_device_name" in order to prevent duplicate links.

2005-08-16[PATCH] Driver core: potentially fix use after free in class_device_attr_showManeesh Soni1-4/+6
This moves the code to free devt_attr from class_device_del() to class_dev_release() which is called after the last reference to the corresponding kobject() is gone. This allows us to keep the devt_attr alive while the corresponding sysfs file is open.

2005-06-20[PATCH] CLASS: move a "simple" class logic into the class core.gregkh@suse.de1-11/+134
One step on improving the class api so that it can not be used incorrectly. This also fixes the module owner issue with the dev files that happened when the devt logic moved to the class core.

2005-06-20[PATCH] sysfs: (driver/base) if show/store is missing return -EIODmitry Torokhov1-2/+2

2005-04-18[PATCH] kobject/hotplug split - class corekay.sievers@vrfy.org1-0/+2
kobject_add() and kobject_del() don't emit hotplug events anymore. Do it ourselves if we are finished populating the device directory. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

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!
