docs/sysfs: Specify ABI documentation requirements

2011-08-23T00:42:34Z

Although it is expected nowadays that every new sysfs attribute is documented under Documentation/ABI, this is not yet mentioned in the kernel documentation. This patch adds a note in the sysfs documentation about that requirement. Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche Cc: Andrew Morton Cc: Randy Dunlap Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

docs/sysfs: show() methods should use scnprintf().

2011-02-03T23:10:18Z

Since snprintf() may return a value that exceeds its second argument, show() methods should use scnprintf() instead of snprintf(). This patch updates the example in the sysfs documentation accordingly. Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche Cc: Tejun Heo Cc: Dmitry Torokhov Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

docs/sysfs: Update directory/kobject documentation.

2011-02-03T23:10:18Z

Some time ago the way how sysfs stores a pointer to a kobject corresponding to a directory was modified. This patch brings the documentation again in sync with the implementation. Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche Cc: Tejun Heo Cc: Dmitry Torokhov Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Driver core: driver_attribute parameters can often be const*

2009-12-23T19:23:43Z

Many struct driver_attribute descriptors are purely read-only structures, and there's no need to change them. Therefore make the promise not to, which will let those descriptors be put in a ro section. Signed-off-by: Phil Carmody Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Driver core: device_attribute parameters can often be const*

2009-12-23T19:23:43Z

Most device_attributes are const, and are begging to be put in a ro section. However, the create and remove file interfaces were failing to propagate the const promise which the only functions they call offer. Signed-off-by: Phil Carmody Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
