The MOST driver was pushed to the staging area with kernel 4.3. Since then it has encountered many refinements by the community and should be ready for an upstream audit and to be moved out of the staging area. Since the driver consists of multiple modules the core module is about to go first and the other modules will follow subsequently. This patchset executes the necessary steps to move the core module out of staging. v2: Reported-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> - use -M option to create patches v3: Reported-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> - fix date range in comment section of core.c - move code to free up memory to release funtions - remove noisy log messages - use dev_* functions for logging v4: Reported-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> - change owner of struct device that is registered with kernel's device/driver model - fix linked list race condition - fix logging behaviour - fix possible NULL pointer dereference Christian Gromm (10): staging: most: remove device from interface structure staging: most: core: drop device reference staging: most: remove struct device core driver staging: most: core: remove container struct staging: most: core: fix logging messages staging: next: configfs: fix release link staging: most: usb: check for NULL device staging: most: move core files out of the staging area staging: most: Documentation: update ABI description staging: most: Documentation: move ABI description files out of staging area .../ABI/testing/configfs-most | 8 - .../ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-most | 24 +-- drivers/Kconfig | 1 + drivers/Makefile | 1 + drivers/most/Kconfig | 15 ++ drivers/most/Makefile | 4 + drivers/{staging => }/most/configfs.c | 28 +++- drivers/{staging => }/most/core.c | 164 +++++++++------------ drivers/staging/most/Kconfig | 6 +- drivers/staging/most/Makefile | 5 - drivers/staging/most/cdev/cdev.c | 2 +- drivers/staging/most/dim2/dim2.c | 5 +- drivers/staging/most/i2c/i2c.c | 2 +- drivers/staging/most/net/net.c | 2 +- drivers/staging/most/sound/sound.c | 2 +- drivers/staging/most/usb/usb.c | 25 +++- drivers/staging/most/video/video.c | 2 +- {drivers/staging/most => include/linux}/most.h | 4 +- 18 files changed, 145 insertions(+), 155 deletions(-) rename drivers/staging/most/Documentation/ABI/configfs-most.txt => Documentation/ABI/testing/configfs-most (94%) rename drivers/staging/most/Documentation/ABI/sysfs-bus-most.txt => Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-most (92%) create mode 100644 drivers/most/Kconfig create mode 100644 drivers/most/Makefile rename drivers/{staging => }/most/configfs.c (98%) rename drivers/{staging => }/most/core.c (91%) rename {drivers/staging/most => include/linux}/most.h (99%) -- 2.7.4 _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
