I believe I touched all of the users of sysfs_get_dirent outside of sysfs
that existed when I sent you the patch.

Right now using sysfs_get_dirent is a hack to support notifications of
changes to sysfs files from atomic contexts, where sysfs_notify is

linux-next: build warnings after merge of the driver-core.current tree

Hi Greg,

After merging the driver-core.current tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
ppc64_defconfig and x86_64 allmodconfig) produced these warning:

drivers/pcmcia/ds.c: In function 'pcmcia_load_firmware':
drivers/pcmcia/ds.c:761: warning: passing argument 1 of 'release_firmware' discards qualifiers from
pointer target type
include/linux/firmware.h:46: note: expected 'struct firmware *' but argument is of type 'const struct
firmware *'
drivers/net/cxgb3/cxgb3_main.c: In function 't3_get_edc_fw':
drivers/net/cxgb3/cxgb3_main.c:1084: warning: passing argument 1 of 'release_firmware' discards
qualifiers from pointer target type
include/linux/firmware.h:46: note: expected 'struct firmware *' but argument is of type 'const struct
firmware *'

and *lots* more similar warnings ...

Caused by commit d5ae47f7d90f94a15e668f389c12211a11798b6f
("firmware_class: fix memory leak - free allocated pages").  This patch
was modified from an earlier version that produced different (though many
fewer) warnings.

linux-next: build failure after merge of the net tree

Hi Dave,

After merging the net tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

net/sctp/socket.c: In function 'sctp_data_ready':
net/sctp/socket.c:6191: error: implicit declaration of function 'sk_has_sleeper'
net/sctp/socket.c:6192: error: 'struct sock' has no member named 'sk_sleep'

Caused by commit 43815482370c510c569fd18edb57afcb0fa8cab6 ("net:
sock_def_readable() and friends RCU conversion") interacting with commit
561b1733a465cf9677356b40c27653dd45f1ac56 ("sctp: avoid irq lock inversion
while call sk->sk_data_ready()") which entered Linus' tree on April 29.

I have used the net tree from next-20100430 for today.

Any chance of it being fixed?

linux-next: Tree for May 3

Hi all,

Changes since 20100430:

Dropped trees: tmio-mmc (long unresolved conflicts and unable to fetch)
	hwlat (at the maintainer's request)

My fixes tree is empty.

The usb.current tree lost its conflict.

The v4l-dvb tree still has its build failure, so I used the version from
next-20100409.

The net tree gained a build failure so I used the version from
next-20100430.

The bk-ioctl tree lost its build failure and 2 conflicts.

The driver-core tree gained a build failure for which I applied a patch.

The usb tree lost two of its build failures bit still has one more for
which I have reverted a commit.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have created today's linux-next tree at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git
(patches at http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/next/ ).  If you
are tracking the linux-next tree using git, you should not use "git pull"

That would be because I fetched your tree on Friday before your fixes were
publically available.  It is all ok today, thanks.
