2019-06-21docs: driver-model: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rstMauro Carvalho Chehab1-447/+0
Convert the various documents at the driver-model, preparing them to be part of the driver-api book. The conversion is actually: - add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs; - fix tables markups; - add some lists markups; - mark literal blocks; - adjust title markups. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

2016-02-16ARM: 8524/1: driver cohandle -EPROBE_DEFER from bus_type.match()Tomeu Vizoso1-2/+4
Allow implementations of the match() callback in struct bus_type to return errors and if it's -EPROBE_DEFER then queue the device for deferred probing. This is useful to buses such as AMBA in which devices are registered before their matching information can be retrieved from the HW (typically because a clock driver hasn't probed yet). [changed if-else code structure, adjusted documentation to match the code, extended comments] Signed-off-by: Tomeu Vizoso <tomeu.vizoso@collabora.com> Signed-off-by: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@samsung.com> Reviewed-by: Ulf Hansson <ulf.hansson@linaro.org> Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds1-0/+445
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!
