2005-06-21[PATCH] CLASS: move a "simple" class logic into the class core.gregkh@suse.de1-0/+9
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. Based on a patch originally written by Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-06-21[PATCH] make driver's name be const char *Dmitry Torokhov1-6/+6
Driver core: change driver's, bus's, class's and platform device's names to be const char * so one can use const char *drv_name = "asdfg"; when initializing structures. Also kill couple of whitespaces. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-05-18[PATCH] Driver Core: remove driver model detach_stateDavid Brownell1-3/+0
The driver model has a "detach_state" mechanism that: - Has never been used by any in-kernel drive; - Is superfluous, since driver remove() methods can do the same thing; - Became buggy when the suspend() parameter changed semantics and type; - Could self-deadlock when called from certain suspend contexts; - Is effectively wasted documentation, object code, and headspace. This removes that "detach_state" mechanism; net code shrink, as well as a per-device saving in the driver model and sysfs.

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!
