2021-09-14T14:59:46+00:00

Split adding binary attributes into a separate handler instead of overloading sysfs_add_file_mode_ns. Acked-by: Christian Brauner Acked-by: Tejun Heo Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210913054121.616001-5-hch@lst.de Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

sysfs: Use local reference in compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj()

2021-07-21T14:11:42+00:00

As we have just obtained target_kobj->sd into a local variable, and incremented the object's reference count, it is better to use the local variable instead of the original reference.

sysfs: remove redundant __compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj fn

2020-04-05T18:34:35+00:00

Commit 9255782f7061 ("sysfs: Wrap __compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj function to change the symlink name") made this function a wrapper around a new non-underscored function, which is a bit odd. The normal naming convention is the other way around: the underscored function is the wrappee, and the non-underscored function is the wrapper. There's only one single user (well, two call-sites in that user) of the more limited double underscore version of this function, so just remove the oddly named wrapper entirely and just add the extra NULL argument to the user. I considered just doing that in the merge, but that tends to make history really hard to read.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman: "Slightly late as I had to rebase mid-week to insert a bug fix: - A large series from Nick for 64-bit to further rework our exception vectors, and rewrite portions of the syscall entry/exit and interrupt return in C. The result is much easier to follow code that is also faster in general. - Cleanup of our ptrace code to split various parts out that had become badly intertwined with #ifdefs over the years. - Changes to our NUMA setup under the PowerVM hypervisor which should hopefully avoid non-sensical topologies which can lead to warnings from the workqueue code and other problems. - MAINTAINERS updates to remove some of our old orphan entries and update the status of others. - Quite a few other small changes and fixes all over the map.

sysfs: Wrap __compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj function to change the symlink name

2020-02-19T10:07:09+00:00

The __compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj function creates a symlink to a kobject but doesn't provide an option to change the symlink file name. This patch adds a wrapper function compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj that extends the __compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj functionality which allows function caller to customize the symlink name.

sysfs: convert BUG_ON to WARN_ON

2019-01-07T07:53:32+00:00

It's rude to crash the system just because the developer did something wrong, as it prevents them from usually even seeing what went wrong. So convert the few BUG_ON() calls that have snuck into the sysfs code over the years to WARN_ON() to make it more "friendly". All of these are able to be recovered from, so it makes no sense to crash. Reported-by: Linus Torvalds Reviewed-by: Rafael J. Wysocki Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
