V4L/DVB (5573): Pvrusb2: kill unnecessary attribute->owner sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game. After deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper, so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners. Note that often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to accessing removed modules. This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner. Note that with this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the backing module from being unloaded. For more info regarding lifetime rule cleanup, please read the following message: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/510293 Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Signed-off-by: Mike Isely <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --- drivers/media/video/pvrusb2/pvrusb2-sysfs.c | 14 -------------- 1 files changed, 0 insertions(+), 14 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/media/video/pvrusb2/pvrusb2-sysfs.c b/drivers/media/video/pvrusb2/pvrusb2-sysfs.c index a741c55..7ab79ba 100644 --- a/drivers/media/video/pvrusb2/pvrusb2-sysfs.c +++ b/drivers/media/video/pvrusb2/pvrusb2-sysfs.c @@ -518,40 +518,32 @@ static void pvr2_sysfs_add_control(struct pvr2_sysfs *sfp,int ctl_id) } sfp->item_last = cip; - cip->attr_name.attr.owner = THIS_MODULE; cip->attr_name.attr.name = "name"; cip->attr_name.attr.mode = S_IRUGO; cip->attr_name.show = fp->show_name; - cip->attr_type.attr.owner = THIS_MODULE; cip->attr_type.attr.name = "type"; cip->attr_type.attr.mode = S_IRUGO; cip->attr_type.show = fp->show_type; - cip->attr_min.attr.owner = THIS_MODULE; cip->attr_min.attr.name = "min_val"; cip->attr_min.attr.mode = S_IRUGO; cip->attr_min.show = fp->show_min; - cip->attr_max.attr.owner = THIS_MODULE; cip->attr_max.attr.name = "max_val"; cip->attr_max.attr.mode = S_IRUGO; cip->attr_max.show = fp->show_max; - cip->attr_val.attr.owner = THIS_MODULE; cip->attr_val.attr.name = "cur_val"; cip->attr_val.attr.mode = S_IRUGO; - cip->attr_custom.attr.owner = THIS_MODULE; cip->attr_custom.attr.name = "custom_val"; cip->attr_custom.attr.mode = S_IRUGO; - cip->attr_enum.attr.owner = THIS_MODULE; cip->attr_enum.attr.name = "enum_val"; cip->attr_enum.attr.mode = S_IRUGO; cip->attr_enum.show = fp->show_enum; - cip->attr_bits.attr.owner = THIS_MODULE; cip->attr_bits.attr.name = "bit_val"; cip->attr_bits.attr.mode = S_IRUGO; cip->attr_bits.show = fp->show_bits; @@ -616,12 +608,10 @@ static void pvr2_sysfs_add_debugifc(struct pvr2_sysfs *sfp) dip = kzalloc(sizeof(*dip),GFP_KERNEL); if (!dip) return; - dip->attr_debugcmd.attr.owner = THIS_MODULE; dip->attr_debugcmd.attr.name = "debugcmd"; dip->attr_debugcmd.attr.mode = S_IRUGO|S_IWUSR|S_IWGRP; dip->attr_debugcmd.show = debugcmd_show; dip->attr_debugcmd.store = debugcmd_store; - dip->attr_debuginfo.attr.owner = THIS_MODULE; dip->attr_debuginfo.attr.name = "debuginfo"; dip->attr_debuginfo.attr.mode = S_IRUGO; dip->attr_debuginfo.show = debuginfo_show; @@ -811,7 +801,6 @@ static void class_dev_create(struct pvr2_sysfs *sfp, return; } - sfp->attr_v4l_minor_number.attr.owner = THIS_MODULE; sfp->attr_v4l_minor_number.attr.name = "v4l_minor_number"; sfp->attr_v4l_minor_number.attr.mode = S_IRUGO; sfp->attr_v4l_minor_number.show = v4l_minor_number_show; @@ -825,7 +814,6 @@ static void class_dev_create(struct pvr2_sysfs *sfp, sfp->v4l_minor_number_created_ok = !0; } - sfp->attr_v4l_radio_minor_number.attr.owner = THIS_MODULE; sfp->attr_v4l_radio_minor_number.attr.name = "v4l_radio_minor_number"; sfp->attr_v4l_radio_minor_number.attr.mode = S_IRUGO; sfp->attr_v4l_radio_minor_number.show = v4l_radio_minor_number_show; @@ -839,7 +827,6 @@ static void class_dev_create(struct pvr2_sysfs *sfp, sfp->v4l_radio_minor_number_created_ok = !0; } - sfp->attr_unit_number.attr.owner = THIS_MODULE; sfp->attr_unit_number.attr.name = "unit_number"; sfp->attr_unit_number.attr.mode = S_IRUGO; sfp->attr_unit_number.show = unit_number_show; @@ -852,7 +839,6 @@ static void class_dev_create(struct pvr2_sysfs *sfp, sfp->unit_number_created_ok = !0; } - sfp->attr_bus_info.attr.owner = THIS_MODULE; sfp->attr_bus_info.attr.name = "bus_info_str"; sfp->attr_bus_info.attr.mode = S_IRUGO; sfp->attr_bus_info.show = bus_info_show; - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git-commits-head" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
