device_add_disk() doesn't allow to register with default sysfs groups, which introduces a race with udev as these groups have to be created after the uevent has been sent. This patchset updates device_add_disk() to accept a 'groups' argument to avoid this race and updates the obvious drivers to use it. There are some more drivers which might benefit from this (eg loop or md), but the interface is not straightforward so I haven't attempted it. As usual, comments and reviews are welcome. Changes to v2: - Fold lightnvm attributes into the generic attribute group as suggested by Bart Changes to v1: - Drop first patch - Convert lightnvm sysfs attributes as suggested by Bart Hannes Reinecke (5): block: genhd: add 'groups' argument to device_add_disk nvme: register ns_id attributes as default sysfs groups aoe: use device_add_disk_with_groups() zram: register default groups with device_add_disk() virtio-blk: modernize sysfs attribute creation arch/um/drivers/ubd_kern.c | 2 +- block/genhd.c | 19 +++++-- drivers/block/aoe/aoe.h | 1 - drivers/block/aoe/aoeblk.c | 21 +++---- drivers/block/aoe/aoedev.c | 1 - drivers/block/floppy.c | 2 +- drivers/block/mtip32xx/mtip32xx.c | 2 +- drivers/block/ps3disk.c | 2 +- drivers/block/ps3vram.c | 2 +- drivers/block/rsxx/dev.c | 2 +- drivers/block/skd_main.c | 2 +- drivers/block/sunvdc.c | 2 +- drivers/block/virtio_blk.c | 68 +++++++++++++---------- drivers/block/xen-blkfront.c | 2 +- drivers/block/zram/zram_drv.c | 28 +++------- drivers/ide/ide-cd.c | 2 +- drivers/ide/ide-gd.c | 2 +- drivers/memstick/core/ms_block.c | 2 +- drivers/memstick/core/mspro_block.c | 2 +- drivers/mmc/core/block.c | 2 +- drivers/mtd/mtd_blkdevs.c | 2 +- drivers/nvdimm/blk.c | 2 +- drivers/nvdimm/btt.c | 2 +- drivers/nvdimm/pmem.c | 2 +- drivers/nvme/host/core.c | 21 +++---- drivers/nvme/host/lightnvm.c | 106 +++++++++++++++--------------------- drivers/nvme/host/multipath.c | 15 ++--- drivers/nvme/host/nvme.h | 10 +--- drivers/s390/block/dasd_genhd.c | 2 +- drivers/s390/block/dcssblk.c | 2 +- drivers/s390/block/scm_blk.c | 2 +- drivers/scsi/sd.c | 2 +- drivers/scsi/sr.c | 2 +- include/linux/genhd.h | 5 +- 34 files changed, 151 insertions(+), 190 deletions(-) -- 2.16.4
