This is v3 of the patch series that introduces function-level hotplug to the PCI core. It is against Jesse's linux-next branch. I've been doing lots of testing, and found and fixed several small buglets, both in my code and elsewhere in PCI. In order to test this patchset, you will also need these patches: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.pci/3437 http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/3/7/173 There is still one major bug somewhere that shows up only when using the PCIe portdriver (that is, any time PCIe support is built into the kernel). You get an oops during multiple remove/rescan cycles, especially on devices with an internal bridge. This symptom does not appear on the exact same hardware topology, removing and rescanning the exact same device, when not using the PCIe port driver. I'm still not sure what's going on, so if anyone wants to play with this series, I'd truly appreciate any help. Thanks. /ac v2 -> v3: - properly remove device with internal bridge - added Kenji Kaneshige's pci_is_root_bus() interface - dropped whitespace cleanups for another time v1 -> v2: - incorporated lots of Trent Piepho's work - beefed up pci_do_scan_bus as heavy lifter for rescanning - small bugfixes folded into earlier patches to get everything working --- Alex Chiang (7): PCI Hotplug: schedule fakephp for feature removal PCI Hotplug: rename legacy_fakephp to fakephp PCI: Introduce /sys/bus/pci/devices/.../rescan PCI: Introduce /sys/bus/pci/devices/.../remove PCI: Introduce /sys/bus/pci/rescan PCI: beef up pci_do_scan_bus() PCI: always scan child buses Kenji Kaneshige (1): PCI: pci_is_root_bus helper Trent Piepho (3): PCI Hotplug: restore fakephp interface with complete reimplementation PCI: pci_scan_slot() returns newly found devices PCI: don't scan existing devices Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-pci | 27 ++ Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt | 32 ++ Documentation/filesystems/sysfs-pci.txt | 9 + drivers/pci/hotplug-pci.c | 16 + drivers/pci/hotplug/fakephp.c | 443 +++++++--------------------- drivers/pci/pci-sysfs.c | 89 ++++++ drivers/pci/probe.c | 74 ++--- include/linux/pci.h | 9 + 8 files changed, 321 insertions(+), 378 deletions(-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-pci" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
