From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: akpm@osdl.org Subject: [patch 09/26] ACPI: update asus_acpi driver registration Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2006 14:03:36 -0800 Message-ID: <200603282203.k2SM3gKA027674@shell0.pdx.osdl.net> Return-path: Received: from smtp.osdl.org ([65.172.181.4]:53423 "EHLO smtp.osdl.org") by vger.kernel.org with ESMTP id S932414AbWC1WDq (ORCPT ); Tue, 28 Mar 2006 17:03:46 -0500 Sender: linux-acpi-owner@vger.kernel.org List-Id: linux-acpi@vger.kernel.org To: len.brown@intel.com Cc: linux-acpi@vger.kernel.org, akpm@osdl.org, bjorn.helgaas@hp.com From: Bjorn Helgaas Remove the assumption that acpi_bus_register_driver() returns the number of devices claimed. Returning the count is unreliable because devices may be hot-plugged in the future (admittedly not applicable for this driver). Since the hardware for this driver is not hot-pluggable, determine whether the hardware is present by noticing calls to the .add() method. It would be better to probe the ACPI namespace for the ASUS HIDs, and load the driver only when we find one, but ACPI doesn't support that yet. I don't have an ASUS laptop to test on, but on my HP dl360, it does report the appropriate error when attempting to load the module: $ sudo insmod drivers/acpi/asus_acpi.ko insmod: error inserting 'drivers/acpi/asus_acpi.ko': -1 No such device Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas Cc: "Brown, Len" Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton --- drivers/acpi/asus_acpi.c | 18 +++++++++++++++++- 1 files changed, 17 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff -puN drivers/acpi/asus_acpi.c~acpi-update-asus_acpi-driver-registration drivers/acpi/asus_acpi.c --- devel/drivers/acpi/asus_acpi.c~acpi-update-asus_acpi-driver-registration 2006-03-28 14:03:03.000000000 -0800 +++ devel-akpm/drivers/acpi/asus_acpi.c 2006-03-28 14:03:03.000000000 -0800 @@ -1119,6 +1119,8 @@ static int __init asus_hotk_check(void) return result; } +static int asus_hotk_found; + static int __init asus_hotk_add(struct acpi_device *device) { acpi_status status = AE_OK; @@ -1180,6 +1182,8 @@ static int __init asus_hotk_add(struct a } } + asus_hotk_found = 1; + end: if (result) { kfree(hotk); @@ -1226,7 +1230,19 @@ static int __init asus_acpi_init(void) asus_proc_dir->owner = THIS_MODULE; result = acpi_bus_register_driver(&asus_hotk_driver); - if (result < 1) { + if (result < 0) { + remove_proc_entry(PROC_ASUS, acpi_root_dir); + return -ENODEV; + } + + /* + * This is a bit of a kludge.
