switch device_get_devnode() and ->devnode() to umode_t *

2012-01-04T03:54:55Z

both callers of device_get_devnode() are only interested in lower 16bits and nobody tries to return anything wider than 16bit anyway. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

devtmpfsd: fix task state handling

2011-11-16T00:07:39Z

- Set the state to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE using __set_current_state() instead of set_current_state() as the spin_unlock is an implicit memory barrier. - After return from schedule(), there is no need to set the current state to TASK_RUNNING - a call to schedule() always returns in TASK_RUNNING state.

drivers/base/devtmpfs.c: correct annotation of `setup_done'

2011-08-08T20:53:50Z

This fixes the following section mismatch issue: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x1192bf): Section mismatch in reference from the function devtmpfsd() to the variable .init.data:setup_done The function devtmpfsd() references the variable __initdata setup_done. This is often because devtmpfsd lacks a __initdata annotation or the annotation of setup_done is wrong. WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x119342): Section mismatch in reference from the function devtmpfsd() to the variable .init.data:setup_done The function devtmpfsd() references the variable __initdata setup_done.

devtmpfs: missing initialialization in never-hit case

2011-07-28T02:27:33Z

create_path() on something without a single / in it will return err without initializing it. It actually can't happen (we call that thing only if create on the same path returns -ENOENT, which won't happen happen for single-component path), but in this case initializing err to 0 is more than making compiler to STFU - would be the right thing to return on such paths; the function creates a parent directory of given pathname and in that case it has no work to do...

fix devtmpfs race

2011-07-25T18:15:50Z

After we's done complete(&req->done), there's nothing to prevent the scope containing *req from being gone and *req overwritten by any kind of junk. So we must read req->next before that... Signed-off-by: Al Viro

devtmpfs: get rid of bogus mkdir in create_path()

2011-07-20T05:44:11Z

We do _NOT_ want to mkdir the path itself - we are preparing to mknod it, after all. Normally it'll fail with -ENOENT and just do nothing, but if somebody has created the parent in the meanwhile, we'll get buggered... Signed-off-by: Al Viro

switch devtmpfs object creation/removal to separate kernel thread

2011-07-20T05:44:09Z

... and give it a namespace where devtmpfs would be mounted on root, thus avoiding abuses of vfs_path_lookup() (it was never intended to be used with LOOKUP_PARENT). Games with credentials are also gone. Signed-off-by: Al Viro
