aoe: make aoe_class a static const structure

2023-06-21T13:45:19Z

Now that the driver core allows for struct class to be in read-only memory, move the aoe_class structure to be declared at build time placing it into read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically allocated at boot time.

driver core: class: remove module * from class_create()

2023-03-17T14:16:33Z

The module pointer in class_create() never actually did anything, and it shouldn't have been requred to be set as a parameter even if it did something. So just remove it and fix up all callers of the function in the kernel tree at the same time. Cc: "Rafael J.

driver core: make struct class.devnode() take a const *

2022-11-24T16:12:27Z

The devnode() in struct class should not be modifying the device that is passed into it, so mark it as a const * and propagate the function signature changes out into all relevant subsystems that use this callback.

aoe: support more AoE addresses with dynamic block device minor numbers

2012-10-05T18:05:28Z

The ATA over Ethernet protocol uses a major (shelf) and minor (slot) address to identify a particular storage target. These changes remove an artificial limitation the aoe driver imposes on the use of AoE addresses. For example, without these changes, the slot address has a maximum of 15, but users commonly use slot numbers much greater than that. The AoE shelf and slot address space is often used sparsely. Instead of using a static mapping between AoE addresses and the block device minor number, the block device minor numbers are now allocated on demand.
