Documentation: use subdir-y to avoid unnecessary built-in.o files

2014-09-26T09:02:55+00:00

Change the Documentation makefiles from obj-m to subdir-y
to avoid generating unnecessary built-in.o files since nothing
in Documentation/ is ever linked in to vmlinux.

Documentation/misc-devices/mei/mei-amt-version.c: remove unneeded call of mei_deinit()

2014-01-08T23:20:20+00:00

Building mei-amt-version.o triggers a GCC warning:
    Documentation/misc-devices/mei/mei-amt-version.c: In function 'main':
    Documentation/misc-devices/mei/mei-amt-version.c:103:5: warning: 'acmd.fd' is used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]
      if (cl->fd != -1)
         ^
    Documentation/misc-devices/mei/mei-amt-version.c:443:21: note: 'acmd.fd' was declared here
      struct amt_host_if acmd;
                         ^

GCC is correct. See, the call chain that GCC detects must be
    main()
        amt_host_if_init()
            mei_init()
                mei_deinit()

But when we enter mei_deinit() struct amt_host_if acmd is still
unitialized. That makes the test for (effectively) amt_host_if->mei_cl->fd
bogus.

But it turns out that call of mei_deinit() isn't needed at all. All of
the members of mei_cl will be set later in mei_init() and none will be
used before they are set. So we can simply drop this call of
mei_deinit().

mei: bus: Add device enabling and disabling API

2013-04-08T23:57:15+00:00

It should be left to the drivers to enable and disable the device on the
MEI bus when e.g getting probed.
For drivers to be able to safely call the enable and disable hooks, the
mei_cl_ops must be set before it's probed and thus this should happen
before registering the device on the MEI bus. Hence the mei_cl_add_device()
prototype change.

mei: bus: Initial MEI Client bus type implementation

2013-03-29T15:35:47+00:00

mei client bus will present some of the mei clients
as devices for other standard subsystems

Implement the probe, remove, match, device addtion routines, along with
the sysfs and uevent ones. mei_cl_device_id is also added to
mod_devicetable.h
A mei-cleint-bus.txt document describing the rationale and the API usage
is also added while ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-mei describeis the modalias ABI.
