drivers: avoid format string in dev_set_name

2013-07-03T23:07:41Z

Calling dev_set_name with a single paramter causes it to be handled as a format string. Many callers are passing potentially dynamic string content, so use "%s" in those cases to avoid any potential accidents, including wrappers like device_create*() and bdi_register().

drivers: base: Convert dev_printk(KERN_ to dev_(

2012-10-31T00:38:43Z

dev_ calls take less code than dev_printk(KERN_ and reducing object size is good. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

[SCSI] attirbute_container: Initialize sysfs attributes with sysfs_attr_init

2010-03-27T19:15:24Z

All of the SCSI transport classes are suddenly spitting lockdep warnings. According to Eric Biderman this is because lockdep needs static initialisers and the attribute container way of doing things end up with dynamic sysfs attributes. Fix this by calling sysfs_attr_init which sets the lockdep key correctly. Tested-by: Christof Schmitt Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

SCSI: convert struct class_device to struct device

It's big, but there doesn't seem to be a way to split it up smaller... Signed-off-by: Tony Jones Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers Cc: Roland Dreier Cc: Sean Hefty Cc: Hal Rosenstock Cc: James Bottomley Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Driver core: use LIST_HEAD instead of call to INIT_LIST_HEAD in __init

LIST_HEAD has been widely used, so switch to this simpler method. Signed-off-by: Denis Cheng Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

[SCSI] attribute_container: update to use the group interface

2008-01-23T17:29:17Z

This patch is the beginning of moving the attribute_containers to use attribute groups exclusively. The attr element is now deprecated and will eventually be removed (along with all the hand rolled code for doing exactly what attribute groups do) when all the consumers are converted to attribute groups.

Driver core: include linux/mutex.h from attribute_container.c

2007-07-11T23:09:01Z

attribute_container.c uses DEFINE_MUTEX, so while linux/mutex.h seems to be pulled in indirectly by one of the headers it includes, the right thing is to include linux/mutex.h directly. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin
