Input: include export.h in modules using EXPORT_SYMBOL*()

2025-08-21T19:00:59+00:00

A number of modules in the input subsystem use EXPORT_SYMBOL() and friends without explicitly including the corresponding header . While the build currently succeeds due to this header being pulled in transitively, this is not guaranteed to be the case in the future. Let's add the explicit include to make the dependencies clear and prevent future build breakage. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov

treewide, timers: Rename from_timer() to timer_container_of()

treewide: Switch/rename to timer_delete[_sync]()

2025-04-05T08:30:12+00:00

timer_delete[_sync]() replaces del_timer[_sync](). Convert the whole tree over and remove the historical wrapper inlines. Conversion was done with coccinelle plus manual fixups where necessary. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

Merge tag 'driver-core-6.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

2024-07-25T17:42:22+00:00

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH: "Here is the big set of driver core changes for 6.11-rc1. Lots of stuff in here, with not a huge diffstat, but apis are evolving which required lots of files to be touched. Highlights of the changes in here are: - platform remove callback api final fixups (Uwe took many releases to get here, finally!) - Rust bindings for basic firmware apis and initial driver-core interactions. It's not all that useful for a "write a whole driver in rust" type of thing, but the firmware bindings do help out the phy rust drivers, and the driver core bindings give a solid base on which others can start their work. There is still a long way to go here before we have a multitude of rust drivers being added, but it's a great first step. - driver core const api changes. This reached across all bus types, and there are some fix-ups for some not-common bus types that linux-next and 0-day testing shook out. This work is being done to help make the rust bindings more safe, as well as the C code, moving toward the end-goal of allowing us to put driver structures into read-only memory. We aren't there yet, but are getting closer. - minor devres cleanups and fixes found by code inspection - arch_topology minor changes - other minor driver core cleanups All of these have been in linux-next for a very long time with no reported problems" * tag 'driver-core-6.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: (55 commits) ARM: sa1100: make match function take a const pointer sysfs/cpu: Make crash_hotplug attribute world-readable dio: Have dio_bus_match() callback take a const * zorro: make match function take a const pointer driver core: module: make module_[add|remove]_driver take a const * driver core: make driver_find_device() take a const * driver core: make driver_[create|remove]_file take a const * firmware_loader: fix soundness issue in `request_internal` firmware_loader: annotate doctests as `no_run` devres: Correct code style for functions that return a pointer type devres: Initialize an uninitialized struct member devres: Fix memory leakage caused by driver API devm_free_percpu() devres: Fix devm_krealloc() wasting memory driver core: platform: Switch to use kmemdup_array() driver core: have match() callback in struct bus_type take a const * MAINTAINERS: add Rust device abstractions to DRIVER CORE device: rust: improve safety comments MAINTAINERS: add Danilo as FIRMWARE LOADER maintainer MAINTAINERS: add Rust FW abstractions to FIRMWARE LOADER firmware: rust: improve safety comments ...

driver core: have match() callback in struct bus_type take a const *

2024-07-03T13:16:54+00:00

In the match() callback, the struct device_driver * should not be changed, so change the function callback to be a const *. This is one step of many towards making the driver core safe to have struct device_driver in read-only memory. Because the match() callback is in all busses, all busses are modified to handle this properly. This does entail switching some container_of() calls to container_of_const() to properly handle the constant *. For some busses, like PCI and USB and HV, the const * is cast away in the match callback as those busses do want to modify those structures at this point in time (they have a local lock in the driver structure.) That will have to be changed in the future if they wish to have their struct device * in read-only-memory. Cc: Rafael J.

Input: gameport - use sizeof(*pointer) instead of sizeof(type)

2024-06-07T18:59:41+00:00

It is preferred to use sizeof(*pointer) instead of sizeof(type) due to the type of the variable can change and one needs not change the former (unlike the latter). This patch has no effect on runtime behavior.

Input: gameport - make gameport_bus const

2024-02-06T21:57:02+00:00

Now that the driver core can properly handle constant struct bus_type, move the gameport_bus variable to be a constant structure as well, placing it into read-only memory which can not be modified at runtime.

Input: gameport - add ISA and HAS_IOPORT dependencies

2023-07-06T00:32:34+00:00

In a future patch HAS_IOPORT=n will result in inb()/outb() and friends not being declared. As ISA already implies HAS_IOPORT we can simply add this dependency and guard sections of code using inb()/outb() as alternative access methods.

Instead of constantly checking pointer(s) for non-NULL-ness provide default implementations of trigger() and read() and instantiate them during pore registration if driver-specific versions were not provided.
