fbdev: sm501fb: use memset_io

2015-03-02T11:17:24Z

we should really be using memset_io() instead of using memset() as this is actually io space mapped into our memory. Signed-off-by: Sudip Mukherjee Signed-off-by: Tomi Valkeinen

Merge tag 'driver-core-3.19-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

2014-12-15T00:10:09Z

Pull driver core update from Greg KH: "Here's the set of driver core patches for 3.19-rc1. They are dominated by the removal of the .owner field in platform drivers. They touch a lot of files, but they are "simple" changes, just removing a line in a structure. Other than that, a few minor driver core and debugfs changes. There are some ath9k patches coming in through this tree that have been acked by the wireless maintainers as they relied on the debugfs changes. Everything has been in linux-next for a while" * tag 'driver-core-3.19-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: (324 commits) Revert "ath: ath9k: use debugfs_create_devm_seqfile() helper for seq_file entries" fs: debugfs: add forward declaration for struct device type firmware class: Deletion of an unnecessary check before the function call "vunmap" firmware loader: fix hung task warning dump devcoredump: provide a one-way disable function device: Add dev__once variants ath: ath9k: use debugfs_create_devm_seqfile() helper for seq_file entries ath: use seq_file api for ath9k debugfs files debugfs: add helper function to create device related seq_file drivers/base: cacheinfo: remove noisy error boot message Revert "core: platform: add warning if driver has no owner" drivers: base: support cpu cache information interface to userspace via sysfs drivers: base: add cpu_device_create to support per-cpu devices topology: replace custom attribute macros with standard DEVICE_ATTR* cpumask: factor out show_cpumap into separate helper function driver core: Fix unbalanced device reference in drivers_probe driver core: fix race with userland in device_add() sysfs/kernfs: make read requests on pre-alloc files use the buffer. sysfs/kernfs: allow attributes to request write buffer be pre-allocated. fs: sysfs: return EGBIG on write if offset is larger than file size ...

m501fb: don't return zero on failure path in sm501fb_probe()

2014-11-06T14:41:36Z

If no framebuffers found, sm501fb_probe() breaks off initialization, deallocates sm501fb_info, but returns zero. As a result, use after free can happen in sm501fb_remove(). The patch adds -ENODEV as a return value in this case. Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org). Signed-off-by: Alexey Khoroshilov Signed-off-by: Tomi Valkeinen

A platform_driver does not need to set an owner, it will be populated by the driver core. Signed-off-by: Wolfram Sang

video: fbdev: replace strnicmp with strncasecmp

2014-10-14T00:18:24Z

The kernel used to contain two functions for length-delimited, case-insensitive string comparison, strnicmp with correct semantics and a slightly buggy strncasecmp. The latter is the POSIX name, so strnicmp was renamed to strncasecmp, and strnicmp made into a wrapper for the new strncasecmp to avoid breaking existing users. To allow the compat wrapper strnicmp to be removed at some point in the future, and to avoid the extra indirection cost, do s/strnicmp/strncasecmp/g.

drivers/video/fbdev/sm501fb.c: avoid world-writable sysfs files.

In line with practice for module parameters, we're adding a build-time check that sysfs files aren't world-writable. Cc: Vincent Sanders Cc: Ben Dooks Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell

video: move fbdev to drivers/video/fbdev

2014-04-17T05:10:19Z

The drivers/video directory is a mess. It contains generic video related files, directories for backlight, console, linux logo, lots of fbdev device drivers, fbdev framework files. Make some order into the chaos by creating drivers/video/fbdev directory, and move all fbdev related files there. No functionality is changed, although I guess it is possible that some subtle Makefile build order related issue could be created by this patch.
