| * ACPI: add a Kconfig option for ACPI procfs interfaceZhang Rui2007-01-281-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a kconfig option CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS to make procfs interface a configurable attribute of ACPI. No procfs interface is actually deprecated, and no sysfs interface is added in this patch. CONGI_ACPI_PROCFS is used to mark procfs interface as deprecated once the same function is duplicated in sysfs.

* | i2c: Migration aids for i2c_adapter.dev removalDavid Brownell2007-01-041-0/+17
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Flag i2c_adapter.dev for removal after userspace tools get upgraded, and include a near-term code migration aid to facilitate this: - The class device gets the name attribute it should have had. This was previously (wrongly) associated with the i2c_adapter.dev node. Sysfs based tools and libraries can start converting right away. - Issue a warning for legacy adapter drivers that don't provide any physical device node; so systems with those drivers will know to fix this problem earlier. This is one of a series of patches to help the I2C stack become a better citizen of the Linux Driver Model world.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This interface was useless as the LPC ISA-like interface is always available, is faster, and is more reliable. This cuts the driver size by some 20%.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Follow-up to patch "Consolidate driver registering": Since I plan the lifetime of Linux 2.6.20 to be the deprecation phase of CONFIG_IEEE1394_EXPORT_FULL_API, it seems fair to keep all previously exported symbols available with this option until this phase is over.

| * [PATCH] sysctl: Undeprecate sys_sysctlEric W. Biederman2006-11-081-12/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The basic issue is that despite have been deprecated and warned about as a very bad thing in the man pages since its inception there are a few real users of sys_sysctl. It was my assumption that because sysctl had been deprecated for all of 2.6 there would be no user space users by this point, so I initially gave sys_sysctl a very short deprecation period. Now that I know there are a few real users the only sane way to proceed with deprecation is to push the time limit out to a year or two work and work with distributions that have big testing pools like fedora core to find these last remaining users. Which means that the sys_sysctl interface needs to be maintained in the meantime. Since I have provided a technical measure that allows us to add new sysctl entries without reserving more binary numbers I believe that is enough to fix the sys_sysctl binary interface maintenance problems, because there is no longer a need to change the binary interface at all. Since the sys_sysctl implementation needs to stay around for a while and the worst of the maintenance issues that caused us to occasionally break the ABI have been addressed I don't see any advantage in continuing with the removal of sys_sysctl. So instead of merely increasing the deprecation period this patch removes the deprecation of sys_sysctl and modifies the kernel to compile the code in by default. With committing to maintain sys_sysctl we get all of the advantages of a fast interface for anything that needs it. Currently sys_sysctl is about 5x faster than /proc/sys, for the same string data.
