In platform_device_del(), we currently delete the device resources
first, then we delete the device itself. This causes a (minor) bug to
occur when one unregisters a platform device before unregistering its
platform driver, and the driver is requesting (in .probe()) and
releasing (in .remove()) a resource of the device. The device
resources are already gone by the time the driver gets the chance to
release the resources it had been requesting, causing an error like:
Trying to free nonexistent resource <0000000000000295-0000000000000296>
If the platform driver is unregistered first, the problem doesn't
occur, as the driver will have the opportunity to release the
resources it had requested before the device resources themselves are
released. It's a bit odd that unregistering the driver first or the
device first doesn't lead to the same result.
So I believe that we should delete the device first in
platform_device_del(). I've searched the git history and found that it
used to be the case before 2.6.8, but was changed here:
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/old-2.6-bkcvs.git;a=commitdiff;h=96ef7b3689936ee1e64b711511342026a8ce459c
> 2004/07/14 16:09:44-07:00 dtor_core
> [PATCH] Driver core: Fix OOPS in device_platform_unregister
>
> Driver core: platform_device_unregister should release resources first
> and only then call device_unregister, otherwise if there
> are no more references to the device it will be freed and
> the fucntion will try to access freed memory.
However we now have an explicit call to put_device() at the end of
platform_device_unregister() so I guess the original problem no longer
exists and it is safe to revert that change.

OCFS2_I(inode)->ip_alloc_sem is a read-write semaphore protecting
local concurrent access of ocfs2 inodes. However, ocfs2 directories were
not taking the semaphore while they accessed or modified the allocation
tree.
ocfs2_extend_dir() needs to take the semaphore in a write mode when it
adds to the allocation. All other directory users get there via
ocfs2_bread(), which takes the semaphore in read mode.

If the find(1) in scripts/gen_initramfs_list.sh generates any errors, it
will cause gen_initramfs_list.sh to fail (because of "set -e"), however
the errors from find are not printed to the user. This is rather confusing:
~/src/powerpc$ make O=~/build/powerpc-cell32/
make[2]: *** [usr/initramfs_data.cpio.gz] Error 1
make[1]: *** [usr] Error 2
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make[1]: *** wait: No child processes. Stop.
make: *** [_all] Error 2
It is much easier to work out what the problem is if we let the errors
from find hit the console, eg:
~/src/powerpc$ make O=~/build/powerpc-cell32/

cpio is copied directly to usr/, while a non-compressed cpio is filtered
through gzip (no changes here) on its way to usr/.

from uncompressing it, just to be compressed again by kbuild.

I'm currently using CROSS_COMPILE="ccache arm-linux-". With that the bash
builtin command "type" searches for ccache and arm-linux-mkimage and so sets
MKIMAGE="/path/to/ccache" as I don't have arm-linux-mkimage. Then the script
dies with an error, that ccache doesn't support the argument -A.
This patch adds some quoting such that it works again for me.

"ccache arm-linux-mkimage".

Most system calls seems to get added to i386 first. This patch
automatically generates a warning for any new system call which is
implemented on i386 but not the architecture currently being compiled.
On PowerPC at the moment, for example, it results in these warnings:
init/missing_syscalls.h:935:3: warning: #warning syscall sync_file_range not implemented
init/missing_syscalls.h:947:3: warning: #warning syscall getcpu not implemented
init/missing_syscalls.h:950:3: warning: #warning syscall epoll_pwait not implemented
The file scripts/checksyscalls.sh list a number of legacy system calls
that are ignored because they only makes sense on i386 systems.

up a patch in unified diff format *before* it is applied. Note that
the empty lines at the end of file detection *requires* that the diff was
taken with at least one line of context around each hunk, or bad things
will happen.
This script cleans up various classes of stealth whitespace. In

- Whitespace (spaces or tabs)before newline;
- DOS line endings (CR before LF);
- Space before tab (spaces are deleted or converted to tabs);
- Empty lines at end of file.
