[PATCH v3] backports: don't backport rfkill, only API

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

There's not much point in backporting rfkill, if the base kernel
doesn't have it then providing the it as /dev/rfkill_backport
won't be picked up by any apps, and if the base kernel has it
then it would cause odd behaviour as the base kernel's platform
drivers using the rfkill API would not talk to the backported
modules rfkill.

An unusable backported rfkill isn't much better than not having
it at all, so change the way we backport rfkill and don't carry
the code but simply provide the API as wrappers.

If the base kernel is 3.10 or higher (the current version) then
don't change anything at all.

If the base kernel is 2.6.33 or higher (with the new rfkill API)
then just wrap the API and disable rfkill registrations for any
types that the base kernel doesn't know about.

For all other kernels, provide only static inlines that behave
like the rfkill API when rfkill isn't compiled in.

The downside is that we need to copy the rfkill API. This is,
however, very very stable (it essentially hasn't changed since
2.6.33), so that's not a problem.

-rfkill was re-implemented on 2.6.31. We port it to
-older kernels with a simple hack, just rename the
-module as a new one rfkill_backport, and every
-exported symbol gets redefined with a _backport
-postfix through compat-2.6.31.h. The changes below
-are the ones we could not do through compat-2.6.31.h
-
-Do older kernels have /dev/rfkill ? I not then we can
-just keep /dev/rfkill and not /dev/rfkill_backport.
-
-Note that 2.6.31 added netdevice notifier upon interface
-dev_open() which on cfg80211 will check if checks to see
-if rfkill is enabled (or if the mode of operation is not
-supported) on the  cfg80211_netdev_notifier_call() and if
-so deny bringing the interface up. This was added via
-commit:
-
-3b8bcfd5d31ea0fec58681d035544ace707d2536
-
-Since older kernels will not have the notifier call
-on dev_open() if we *really want* to port this we could have
-mac80211's subif_open() call :
-
-	ret = call_netdevice_notifiers(NETDEV_PRE_UP, dev);
-	ret = notifier_to_errno(ret);
-	if (ret)
-		return ret;
-
-This would do the policing from within mac80211.

-The UAPI changes split up the kernel and userspace API
-headers into separate directories. We provide backport
-support for the new rfkill module to kernels older than
-2.6.31. To allow us to dynamically provide only backport
-support for those kernels we have a trick within compat
-to provide its own include/linux/rfkill.h header which
-then will include either your own kernel's rkfill.h or
-include the one we are taking from linux-next. The one
-we take from linux-next is renamed to rfkill_backport.h.
-In order to allow the call to include your own kernel's
-rfkill.h the compat rfkill.h uses include_next. The UAPI
-changes would mean though that instead of getting your
-own kernel's rfkill.h you'd end up getting the UAPI
-header file. Fix this by ensuring that for new kernels
-we linux_next into the user's kernels rfkill.h and if
-the kernel is old we still to the rfkill_backport.h
-naming scheme.
