2016-12-01fs: configfs: don't return anything from drop_linkAndrzej Pietrasiewicz1-1/+1
Documentation/filesystems/configfs/configfs.txt says: "When unlink(2) is called on the symbolic link, the source item is notified via the ->drop_link() method. Like the ->drop_item() method, this is a void function and cannot return failure." The ->drop_item() is indeed a void function, the ->drop_link() is actually not. This, together with the fact that the value of ->drop_link() is silently ignored suggests, that it is the ->drop_link() return type that should be corrected and changed to void. This patch changes drop_link() signature and all its users.

2016-01-04configfs: implement binary attributesPantelis Antoniou1-0/+50
ConfigFS lacked binary attributes up until now. This patch introduces support for binary attributes in a somewhat similar manner of sysfs binary attributes albeit with changes that fit the configfs usage model. Problems that configfs binary attributes fix are everything that requires a binary blob as part of the configuration of a resource, such as bitstream loading for FPGAs, DTBs for dynamically created devices etc. Look at Documentation/filesystems/configfs/configfs.txt for internals and howto use them. This patch is against linux-next as of today that contains Christoph's configfs rework.

2015-12-20fs: configfs: Add unlocked version of configfs_depend_item()Krzysztof Opasiak1-0/+16
This change is necessary for the SCSI target usb gadget composed with configfs. In this case configfs will be used for two different purposes: to compose a usb gadget and to configure the target part. If an instance of tcm function is created in $CONFIGFS_ROOT/usb_gadget/<gadget>/functions a tpg can be created in $CONFIGFS_ROOT/target/usb_gadget/<wwn>/, but after a tpg is created the tcm function must not be removed until its corresponding tpg is gone. While the configfs_depend/undepend_item() are meant exactly for creating this kind of dependencies, they are not suitable if the other kernel subsystem happens to be another subsystem in configfs, so this patch adds unlocked versions meant for configfs callbacks. Above description has been provided by: Andrzej Pietrasiewicz <andrzej.p@samsung.com> In configfs_depend_item() we have to consider two possible cases: 1) When we are called to depend another item in the same subsystem as caller In this case we should skip locking configfs root as we know that configfs is in valid state and our subsystem will not be unregistered during this call. 2) When we are called to depend item in different subsystem than our caller In this case we are also sure that configfs is in valid state but we have to lock root of configfs to avoid unregistration of target's subsystem. As it is other than caller's subsystem, there may be nothing what protects us against unregistration of that subsystem.

2015-11-20configfs: allow dynamic group creationDaniel Baluta1-0/+10
This patchset introduces IIO software triggers, offers a way of configuring them via configfs and adds the IIO hrtimer based interrupt source to be used with software triggers. The architecture is now split in 3 parts, to remove all IIO trigger specific parts from IIO configfs core: (1) IIO configfs - creates the root of the IIO configfs subsys. (2) IIO software triggers - software trigger implementation, dynamically creating /config/iio/triggers group. (3) IIO hrtimer trigger - is the first interrupt source for software triggers (with syfs to follow). Each trigger type can implement its own set of attributes. Lockdep seems to be happy with the locking in configfs patch. This patch (of 5): We don't want to hardcode default groups at subsystem creation time. We export: * configfs_register_group * configfs_unregister_group to allow drivers to programatically create/destroy groups later, after module init time. This is needed for IIO configfs support.

2015-07-17include, lib: add __printf attributes to several function prototypesNicolas Iooss1-1/+2
Using __printf attributes helps to detect several format string issues at compile time (even though -Wformat-security is currently disabled in Makefile). For example it can detect when formatting a pointer as a number, like the issue fixed in commit a3fa71c40f18 ("wl18xx: show rx_frames_per_rates as an array as it really is"), or when the arguments do not match the format string, c.f. for example commit 5ce1aca81435 ("reiserfs: fix __RASSERT format string"). To prevent similar bugs in the future, add a __printf attribute to every function prototype which needs one in include/linux/ and lib/. These functions were mostly found by using gcc's -Wsuggest-attribute=format flag.

2007-07-10configfs: config item dependancies.Joel Becker1-0/+5
Sometimes other drivers depend on particular configfs items. For example, ocfs2 mounts depend on a heartbeat region item. If that region item is removed with rmdir(2), the ocfs2 mount must BUG or go readonly. Not happy. This provides two additional API calls: configfs_depend_item() and configfs_undepend_item(). A client driver can call configfs_depend_item() on an existing item to tell configfs that it is depended on. configfs will then return -EBUSY from rmdir(2) for that item. When the item is no longer depended on, the client driver calls configfs_undepend_item() on it. These API cannot be called underneath any configfs callbacks, as they will conflict. They can block and allocate. A client driver probably shouldn't calling them of its own gumption. Rather it should be providing an API that external subsystems call. How does this work? Imagine the ocfs2 mount process. When it mounts, it asks for a heart region item. This is done via a call into the heartbeat code. Inside the heartbeat code, the region item is looked up. Here, the heartbeat code calls configfs_depend_item(). If it succeeds, then heartbeat knows the region is safe to give to ocfs2. If it fails, it was being torn down anyway, and heartbeat can gracefully pass up an error.

2007-07-10configfs: accessing item hierarchy during rmdir(2)Joel Becker1-0/+1
Add a notification callback, ops->disconnect_notify(). It has the same prototype as ->drop_item(), but it will be called just before the item linkage is broken. This way, configfs users who want to do work while the object is still in the heirarchy have a chance. Client drivers will still need to config_item_put() in their ->drop_item(), if they implement it. They need do nothing in ->disconnect_notify(). They don't have to provide it if they don't care.

2007-07-10[PATCH] configfs+dlm: Rename config_group_find_obj and state semantics clearlySatyam Sharma1-5/+2
Configfs being based upon sysfs code, config_group_find_obj() is probably so named because of the similar kset_find_obj() in sysfs. However, "kobject"s in sysfs become "config_item"s in configfs, so let's call it config_group_find_item() instead, for sake of uniformity, and make corresponding change in the users of this function. BTW a crucial difference between kset_find_obj and config_group_find_item is in locking expectations. kset_find_obj does its locking by itself, but config_group_find_item expects the *caller* to do the locking. The reason for this: kset's have their own locks, config_group's don't but instead rely on the subsystem mutex. And, subsystem needn't necessarily be around when config_group_find_item() is called. So let's state these locking semantics explicitly, and rectify the comment, otherwise bugs could continue to occur in future, as they did in the past (refer commit d82b8191e238 in gfs2-2.6-fixes.git).

1. item.c:config_item_cleanup() is a private function (only called by config_item_release() in same file). However, it is spuriously exported in include/linux/configfs.h, so remove that export and make it static in item.c. Also, it is no longer exported / interface function, so no need to give comment for this function (the comment was stating obvious thing, anyway). 2. Kernel-doc comment format does not allow empty line between end of comment and start of function (declaration line).
