9f8b17e643 USB: make usbdevices export their device nodes instead of using a separate class
o The "real" usb-devices export now a device node which can
  populate /dev/bus/usb.

o The usb_device class is optional now and can be disabled in the
  kernel config. Major/minor of the "real" devices and class devices
  are the same.

o The environment of the usb-device event contains DEVNUM and BUSNUM to
  help udev and get rid of the ugly udev rule we need for the class
  devices.

o The usb-devices and usb-interfaces share the same bus, so I used
  the new "struct device_type" to let these devices identify
  themselves. This also removes the current logic of using a magic
  platform-pointer.
  The name of the device_type is also added to the environment
  which makes it easier to distinguish the different kinds of devices
  on the same subsystem.

  It looks like this:
    add@/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb2/2-1
    ACTION=add
    DEVPATH=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb2/2-1
    SUBSYSTEM=usb
    SEQNUM=1533
    MAJOR=189
    MINOR=131
    DEVTYPE=usb_device
    PRODUCT=46d/c03e/2000
    TYPE=0/0/0
    BUSNUM=002
    DEVNUM=004

This udev rule works as a replacement for usb_device class devices:
  SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", \
    NAME="bus/usb/$env{BUSNUM}/$env{DEVNUM}", MODE="0644"

Updated patch, which needs the device_type patches in Greg's tree.

I also got a bugzilla assigned for this. :)

6b157c9bf3 USB: separate autosuspend from external suspend
This patch (as866) adds new entry points for external USB device
suspend and resume requests, as opposed to internally-generated
autosuspend or autoresume.  It also changes the existing
remote-wakeup code paths to use the new routines, since remote wakeup
is not the same as autoresume.

As part of the change, it turns out to be necessary to do remote
wakeup of root hubs from a workqueue.  We had been using khubd, but it
does autoresume rather than an external resume.  Using the
ksuspend_usb_wq workqueue for this purpose seemed a logical choice.

b5e795f8df USB: make autosuspend delay a module parameter
This patch (as859) makes the default USB autosuspend delay a module
parameter of usbcore.  By setting the delay value at boot time, users
will be able to prevent the system from autosuspending devices which
for some reason can't handle it.

The patch also stores the autosuspend delay as a per-device value.  A
later patch will allow the user to change the value, tailoring the
delay for each individual device.  A delay value of 0 will prevent
autosuspend.

94fcda1f8a usbcore: remove unused argument in autosuspend
Thanks to several earlier patches, usb_autosuspend_device() and
usb_autoresume_device() are never called with a second argument other
than 1.  This patch (as819) removes the now-redundant argument.

2425c08b37 [PATCH] usb: fixup usb so it uses struct pid
The problem with remembering a user space process by its pid is that it is
possible that the process will exit, pid wrap around will occur.
Converting to a struct pid avoid that problem, and paves the way for
implementing a pid namespace.

Also since usb is the only user of kill_proc_info_as_uid rename
kill_proc_info_as_uid to kill_pid_info_as_uid and have the new version take
a struct pid.

This patch (as787) creates a new workqueue thread to handle delayed
USB autosuspend requests.  Previously the code used keventd.  However
it turns out that the hub driver's suspend routine calls

645daaab0b usbcore: add autosuspend/autoresume infrastructure
This patch (as739) adds the basic infrastructure for USB autosuspend
and autoresume.  The main features are:

	PM usage counters added to struct usb_device and struct
	usb_interface, indicating whether it's okay to autosuspend
	them or they are currently in use.

	Flag added to usb_device indicating whether the current
	suspend/resume operation originated from outside or as an
	autosuspend/autoresume.

	Flag added to usb_driver indicating whether the driver
	supports autosuspend.  If not, no device bound to the driver
	will be autosuspended.

	Mutex added to usb_device for protecting PM operations.
	Unlike the device semaphore, the locking rule for the pm_mutex
	is that you must acquire the locks going _up_ the device tree.

	New routines handling autosuspend/autoresume requests for
	interfaces and devices.

	Suspend and resume requests are propagated up the device tree
	(but not outside the USB subsystem).

	work_struct added to usb_device, for carrying out delayed
	autosuspend requests.

	Autoresume added (and autosuspend prevented) during probe and
	disconnect.

4d064c0802 usbcore: track whether interfaces are suspended
Currently we rely on intf->dev.power.power_state.event for tracking
whether intf is suspended.  This is not a reliable technique because
that value is owned by the PM core, not by usbcore.  This patch (as718b)
adds a new flag so that we can accurately tell which interfaces are
suspended and which aren't.

At first one might think these flags aren't needed, since interfaces
will be suspended along with their devices.  It turns out there are a
couple of intermediate situations where that's not quite true, such as
while processing a remote-wakeup request.

a8e7c56535 usbcore: resume device resume recursion
This patch (as717b) removes the existing recursion in hub resume code:
Resuming a hub will no longer automatically resume the devices attached
to the hub.

At the same time, it adds one level of recursion: Suspending a USB
device will automatically suspend all the device's interfaces.  Failure
at an intermediate stage will cause all the already-suspended interfaces
to be resumed. Attempts to suspend or resume an interface by itself will
do nothing, although they won't return an error.  Thus the regular
system-suspend and system-resume procedures should continue to work as
before; only runtime PM will be affected.

The patch also removes the code that tests state of the interfaces
before suspending a device.  It's no longer needed, since everything
gets suspended together.

8bb54ab573 usbcore: add usb_device_driver definition
This patch (as732) adds a usb_device_driver structure, for representing
drivers that manage an entire USB device as opposed to just an
interface.  Support routines like usb_register_device_driver,
usb_deregister_device_driver, usb_probe_device, and usb_unbind_device
are also added.

Unlike an earlier version of this patch, the new code is type-safe.  To
accomplish this, the existing struct driver embedded in struct
usb_driver had to be wrapped in an intermediate wrapper.  This enables
the core to tell at runtime whether a particular struct driver belongs
to a device driver or to an interface driver.

4a2a8a2cce usbfs: private mutex for open, release, and remove
The usbfs code doesn't provide sufficient mutual exclusion among open,
release, and remove.  Release vs. remove is okay because they both
acquire the device lock, but open is not exclusive with either one.  All
three routines modify the udev->filelist linked list, so they must not
run concurrently.

Apparently someone gave this a minimum amount of thought in the past by
explicitly acquiring the BKL at the start of the usbdev_open routine.
Oddly enough, there's a comment pointing out that locking is unnecessary
because chrdev_open already has acquired the BKL.

But this ignores the point that the files in /proc/bus/usb/* are not
char device files; they are regular files and so they don't get any
special locking.  Furthermore it's necessary to acquire the same lock in
the release and remove routines, which the code does not do.

Yet another problem arises because the same file_operations structure is
accessible through both the /proc/bus/usb/* and /dev/usb/usbdev* file
nodes.  Even when one of them has been removed, it's still possible for
userspace to open the other.  So simple locking around the individual
remove routines is insufficient; we need to lock the entire
usb_notify_remove_device notifier chain.

Rather than rely on the BKL, this patch (as723) introduces a new private
mutex for the purpose.  Holding the BKL while invoking a notifier chain
doesn't seem like a good idea.

9ad3d6ccf5 [PATCH] USB: Remove USB private semaphore
This patch (as605) removes the private udev->serialize semaphore,
relying instead on the locking provided by the embedded struct device's
semaphore.  The changes are confined to the core, except that the
usb_trylock_device routine now uses the return convention of
down_trylock rather than down_read_trylock (they return opposite values
for no good reason).

A couple of other associated changes are included as well:

	Now that we aren't concerned about HCDs that avoid using the
	hcd glue layer, usb_disconnect no longer needs to acquire the
	usb_bus_lock -- that can be done by usb_remove_hcd where it
	belongs.

	Devices aren't locked over the same scope of code in
	usb_new_device and hub_port_connect_change as they used to be.
	This shouldn't cause any trouble.

Along with the preceding driver core patch, this needs a lot of testing.

979d5199fe [PATCH] root hub changes (lesser half)
This patch collects various small updates related to root hubs, to shrink
later patches which build on them.

  - For root hub suspend/resume support:
     * Make the existing usb_hcd_resume_root_hub() routine respect pmcore
       locking, exporting and using the dpm_runtime_resume() method.
     * Add a new usb_hcd_suspend_root_hub() to pair with that routine.
       (Essential to make OHCI autosuspend behave again...)
     * HC_SUSPENDED by itself only refers to the root hub's downstream ports.
       So let HCDs see root hub URBs unless the parent device is suspended.

  - Remove an assertion we no longer need (and now, also don't want).

  - Generic suspend/resume updates to work better with swsusp.
     * Ignore the FREEZE vs SUSPEND distinction for hardware; trying to
       use it breaks the swsusp snapshots it's supposed to help (sigh).
     * On resume, mark devices as resumed right away, but then
       do nothing else if the device is marked NOTATTACHED.

These changes shouldn't be very noticable by themselves.

db69087437 [PATCH] usb_interface power state
This updates the handling of power state for USB interfaces.

  - Formalizes an existing invariant:  interface "power state" is a boolean:
    ON when I/O is allowed, and FREEZE otherwise.  It does so by defining
    some inlined helpers, then using them.

  - Adds a useful invariant:  the only interfaces marked active are those
    bound to non-suspended drivers.  Later patches build on this invariant.

  - Simplifies the interface driver API (and removes some error paths) by
    removing the requirement that they record power state changes during
    suspend and resume callbacks.  Now usbcore does that.

A few drivers were simplified to address that last change.

This patch introduces a /sys/class/usb_device/ class
where every connected usb-device will show up:

  tree /sys/class/usb_device/
  /sys/class/usb_device/
  |-- usb1.1
  |   |-- dev
  |   `-- device -> ../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb1
  |-- usb2.1
  |   |-- dev
  |   `-- device -> ../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb2
  ...

The presence of the "dev" file lets udev create real device nodes.
  kay@pim:~/src/linux-2.6> tree /dev/bus/usb/
  /dev/bus/usb/
  |-- 1
  |   `-- 1
  |-- 2
  |   `-- 1
  ...

udev rule:
  SUBSYSTEM="usb_device", PROGRAM="/sbin/usb_device %k", NAME="%c"
  (echo $1 | /bin/sed 's/usb\([0-9]*\)\.\([0-9]*\)/bus\/usb\/\1\/\2/')

This makes libusb pick up the real nodes instead of the mounted usbfs:
  export USB_DEVFS_PATH=/dev/bus/usb

Background:
  All this makes it possible to manage usb devices with udev instead of
  the devfs solution. We are currently working on a pam_console/resmgr
  replacement driven by udev and a pam-helper. It applies ACL's to device
  nodes, which is required for modern desktop functionalty like
  "Fast User Switching" or multiple local login support.

New patch with its own major. I've succesfully disabled usbfs and use real
nodes only on my box. With: "export USB_DEVFS_PATH=/dev/bus/usb" libusb picks
up the udev managed nodes instead of reading usbfs files.

This makes udev to provide symlinks for libusb to pick up:
  SUBSYSTEM="usb_device", PROGRAM="/sbin/usbdevice %k", SYMLINK="%c"

/sbin/usbdevice:
  #!/bin/sh
  echo $1 | /bin/sed 's/usbdev\([0-9]*\)\.\([0-9]*\)/bus\/usb\/\1\/\2/'

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!
