Kay Sievers [Fri, 16 Feb 2007 16:33:36 +0000 (17:33 +0100)]
Driver core: udev triggered device-<>driver binding

We get two per-bus sysfs files:
  ls-l /sys/subsystem/usb
  drwxr-xr-x 2 root root    0 2007-02-16 16:42 devices
  drwxr-xr-x 7 root root    0 2007-02-16 14:55 drivers
  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 2007-02-16 16:42 drivers_autoprobe
  --w------- 1 root root 4096 2007-02-16 16:42 drivers_probe

The flag "drivers_autoprobe" controls the behavior of the bus to bind
devices by default, or just initialize the device and leave it alone.

The command "drivers_probe" accepts a bus_id and the bus tries to bind a
driver to this device.

Systems who want to control the driver binding with udev, switch off the
bus initiated probing:
  echo 0 > /sys/subsystem/usb/drivers_autoprobe
  echo 0 > /sys/subsystem/pcmcia/drivers_autoprobe
  ...

and initiate the probing with udev rules like:
  ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{subsystem/drivers_probe}="$kernel"
  ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="pcmcia", ATTR{subsystem/drivers_probe}="$kernel"
  ...

Custom driver binding can happen in earlier rules by something like:
  ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", \
  ATTRS{idVendor}=="1234", ATTRS{idProduct}=="5678" \
  ATTR{subsystem/drivers/<custom-driver>/bind}="$kernel"

This is intended to solve the modprobe.conf mess with "install-rules", custom
bind/unbind-scripts and all the weird things people invented over the years.
It should also provide the functionality "libusual" was supposed to do.

With udev, one can just write a udev rule to drive all USB-disks at the
third port of USB-hub by the "ub" driver, and everything else by
usb-storage. One can also instruct udev to bind different wireless
drivers to identical cards - just selected by the pcmcia slot-number, and
whatever ...

To use the mentioned rules, it needs udev version 106, to be able to
write ATTR{}="$kernel" to sysfs files.

Change default dirty-writeback limits

Do this really early in the 2.6.22-rc series, so that we'll get
feedback.  And don't change by half measures.  Just cut the default
dirty limit to a quarter of what it was, and see if anybody even
notices.

[MIPS] Don't force frame pointers for lockdep on MIPS

Stacktrace support on MIPS doesn't use frame pointers.  Since this option
considerably increases the size of the kernel code, force lockdep to not
use it.
