2008-01-23[SCSI] attribute_container: update to use the group interfaceJames Bottomley
This patch is the beginning of moving the attribute_containers to use attribute groups exclusively. The attr element is now deprecated and will eventually be removed (along with all the hand rolled code for doing exactly what attribute groups do) when all the consumers are converted to attribute groups. Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com>
2007-07-16Remove unnecessary includes of spinlock.h under include/linuxRobert P. J. Day
Remove the obviously unnecessary includes of <linux/spinlock.h> under the include/linux/ directory, and fix the couple errors that are introduced as a result of that. Signed-off-by: Robert P. J.

2005-08-30[SCSI] correct attribute_container list usageJames Bottomley
One of the changes in the attribute_container code in the scsi-misc tree was to add a lock to protect the list of devices per container. This, unfortunately, leads to potential scheduling while atomic problems if there's a sleep in the function called by a trigger. The correct solution is to use the kernel klist infrastructure instead which allows lockless traversal of a list. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
2005-08-28[SCSI] add missing attribute container function prototypeJames Bottomley
attribute_container_classdev_to_container is an exported function of the attribute_container.c file. However, there's no prototype for it. Now I actually want to use it, so add one. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
2005-08-14[SCSI] correct transport class abstraction to work outside SCSIJames Bottomley
I recently tried to construct a totally generic transport class and found there were certain features missing from the current abstract transport class. Most notable is that you have to hang the data on the class_device but most of the API is framed in terms of the generic device, not the class_device. These changes are two fold - Provide the class_device to all of the setup and configure APIs - Provide and extra API to take the device and the attribute class and return the corresponding class_device Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
