From: Greg KH To: torvalds@transmeta.com Cc: linux-usb-devel@lists.sourceforge.net, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Subject: [BK PATCH] USB changes for 2.5.67 Hi, Here are some USB changes. Most notable here is a usbnet driver update that should remove the need for the separate cdc-ether.c driver, a DocBook documentation update for the usbfs interface, and a usb-storage update that fixes some bugs noted in the bug database. There are some other good bugfixes in here too. I've also included my patches in here that add hotplug support for the kobject core, and convert the driver core to use this functionality. These patches were posted to lkml in the past, and Pat has said they look good to him. Please pull from: bk://kernel.bkbits.net/gregkh/linux/linus-2.5 Patches will be posted to linux-usb-devel as a follow-up thread for those who want to see them. thanks, greg k-h Documentation/DocBook/usb.tmpl | 681 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ arch/i386/kernel/edd.c | 2 drivers/acpi/bus.c | 2 drivers/base/base.h | 5 drivers/base/bus.c | 2 drivers/base/class.c | 4 drivers/base/core.c | 55 ++ drivers/base/firmware.c | 2 drivers/base/hotplug.c | 32 - drivers/block/genhd.c | 14 drivers/hotplug/pci_hotplug_core.c | 2 drivers/usb/class/usb-midi.c | 31 - drivers/usb/core/hub.c | 17 drivers/usb/core/message.c | 2 drivers/usb/core/usb.c | 34 - drivers/usb/host/ehci-mem.c | 1 drivers/usb/host/ehci-q.c | 13 drivers/usb/host/ohci-hcd.c | 8 drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c | 2 drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c | 3 drivers/usb/input/kbtab.c | 2 drivers/usb/input/usbkbd.c | 3 drivers/usb/input/usbmouse.c | 3 drivers/usb/misc/speedtch.c | 26 - drivers/usb/net/pegasus.c | 18 drivers/usb/net/pegasus.h | 2 drivers/usb/net/usbnet.c | 765 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------- drivers/usb/serial/io_edgeport.c | 8 drivers/usb/serial/keyspan.h | 26 - drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c | 3 drivers/usb/storage/scsiglue.c | 40 + drivers/usb/storage/transport.c | 30 + drivers/usb/storage/transport.h | 2 drivers/usb/storage/usb.c | 339 ++++++++-------- fs/filesystems.c | 2 fs/partitions/check.c | 2 include/linux/kobject.h | 22 + lib/kobject.c | 170 +++++++- net/core/dev.c | 2 39 files changed, 1824 insertions(+), 553 deletions(-) ----- : o USB: patch for oops in io_edgeport.c Art Haas : o USB: C99 initializers for drivers/usb files David Brownell : o USB: set_configuration() missed some state o USB: kerneldoc for usbfs o USB usbnet: dynamic config, cdc-ether, net1080 o USB: ohci-hcd, pci posting paranoia o USB: ehci-hcd, minor hardware tweaks Duncan Sands : o USB speedtouch: handle failure of usb_set_interface Greg Kroah-Hartman : o USB: set port->tty to NULL after we have closed the port o Kobject: add NULL to decl_subsys() due to addition of hotplug operations o block: add /sbin/hotplug support for when block devices are created and destroyed o driver core: move the hotplug support for /sys/devices to use the kobject logic o Kobject: add NULL to decl_subsys() due to addition of hotplug operations o kobject: cause /sbin/hotplug to be called when kobjects are added and removed o USB: remove redundant checks for NULL when it can never happen Hanna Linder : o USB: input class hookup to existing support Matthew Dharm : o usb-storage: add info to /proc interface o usb-storage: remove BUG/BUG_ON o usb-storage: variable renames o usb-storage: fix CB/CBI Oliver Neukum : o USB: removing unnecessary calls to usb_set_configuration o USB: locking reset/probe o USB: leave usage counts during probe/remove to driver core Paul Mackerras : o USB: small fix to pegasus.c Petko Manolov : o USB: pegasus link status fix
