Hi, all,
This patch set fixes a couple of module autoloading problem.
Patch 1/4 fixes a bug in ACPI device 'modalias' and 'uevent' attributes,
although the bug can rarely be reproduced (only if there is an
output error of snprintf, or the ids are longer than 1024 bytes)
Patch 2/4 introduces two new APIs for exporting ACPI style 'modalias' and
'uevent' attributes in other buses.
Patch 3/4 introduce support for ACPI style 'modalias' and 'uevent'
attributes in platform, I2C and SPI bus.
Patch 4/4 add OF style 'modalias' support for platform bus.
I did some tests and can confirm that the code for ACPI enumerated platform
bus device works well.
I tried with a patch with convert ACPI Fan device/driver to platform bus,
and can confirm that the code for ACPI enumerated platform device works well,
both the platform Fan driver and device show their modalias as "acpi:PNP0C0B".
thanks,
rui

Currently, create_modalias() handles the output truncated case in
an improper way (return -EINVAL).
Plus, acpi_device_uevent() and acpi_device_modalias_show() do
improper check for the create_modalias() return value as well.
This patch fixes create_modalias() to
return -EINVAL if there is an output error,
return -ENOMEM if the output is truncated,
and also fixes both acpi_device_uevent() and acpi_device_modalias_show()
to do proper return value check.

1.7.9.5
ACPI enumerated devices has ACPI style _HID and _CID strings,
all of these strings can be used for both driver loading and matching.
Currently, in Platform, I2C and SPI bus, the ACPI style driver matching
is supported by invoking acpi_driver_match_device() in bus .match() callback.
But, the module autoloading is still broken.
For example, there is any ACPI device with _HID "INTABCD" that is
enumerated to platform bus, and we have a driver that can probe it.
The driver exports its module_alias as "acpi:INTABCD" use the following code
static const struct acpi_device_id xxx_acpi_match[] = {
{ "INTABCD", 0 },
{ }
};
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(acpi, xxx_acpi_match);
But, unfortunately, the device' modalias is shown as "platform:INTABCD:00",
please refer to modalias_show() and platform_uevent() in
drivers/base/platform.c.
This results in that the driver will not be loaded automatically when the
device node is created, because their modalias do not match.
This also applies to I2C and SPI bus.
With this patch, the device' modalias will be shown as "acpi:INTABCD" as well.

1.7.9.5
An ACPI enumerated device may have its compatible id strings.
To support the compatible ACPI ids (acpi_device->pnp.ids),
we introduced acpi_driver_match_device() to match
the driver->acpi_match_table and acpi_device->pnp.ids.
For those drivers, MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(acpi, xxx) is used to
exports the driver module alias in the format of
"acpi:device_compatible_ids".
But in the mean time, the current code does not export the
ACPI compatible strings as part of the module_alias for the
ACPI enumerated devices, which will break the module autoloading.
Take the following piece of code for example,
static const struct acpi_device_id xxx_acpi_match[] = {
{ "INTABCD", 0 },
{ }
};
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(acpi, xxx_acpi_match);
If this piece of code is used in a platform driver for
an ACPI enumerated platform device, the platform driver module_alias
is "acpi:INTABCD", but the uevent attribute of its platform device node
is "platform:INTABCD:00" (PREFIX:platform_device->name).
If this piece of code is used in an i2c driver for an ACPI enumerated
i2c device, the i2c driver module_alias is "acpi:INTABCD", but
the uevent of its i2c device node is "i2c:INTABCD:00" (PREFIX:i2c_client->name).
If this piece of code is used in an spi driver for an ACPI enumerated
spi device, the spi driver module_alias is "acpi:INTABCD", but
the uevent of its spi device node is "spi:INTABCD" (PREFIX:spi_device->modalias).
The reason why the module autoloading is not broken for now is that
the uevent file of the ACPI device node is "acpi:INTABCD".
Thus it is the ACPI device node creation that loads the platform/i2c/spi driver.
So this is a problem that will affect us the day when the ACPI bus
is removed from device model.
This patch introduces two new APIs,
one for exporting ACPI ids in uevent MODALIAS field,
and another for exporting ACPI ids in device' modalias sysfs attribute.
For any bus that supports ACPI enumerated devices, it needs to invoke
these two functions for their uevent and modalias attribute.

As there doesn't appear any dependency with the rest of this series, I

but here it is PAGE_SIZE.

good catch.

dev_attr_show() will give a warning message if modalias_show() returns
PAGE_SIZE, thus I'd prefer to use PAGE_SIZE - 1 for all sites.

I wonder why we don't have/need that with CONFIG_OF? Because probably
nobody is using modules with i2c devices there?

modulo the PAGE_SIZE stuff Mika noted - unless this changes radically
please just assume I'm OK with it.

This seems a gap to me but I'm not 100% sure.
I saw Grant Likely introduced the OF style MODALIAS to platform bus, and
OF style registration/binding to i2c bus, maybe he has an answer for
this.

This is needed for ACPI because we rewrite the device names to give us
stable names. With OF for I2C and SPI nothing bus specific is done that
affects this stuff so the default behaviour works.

Looks like there is actually a dependency in modalias_show, and the
comment about PAGE_SIZE would apply here too I think. So the whole
series should be taken together.

So I changed the PAGE_SIZE to PAGE_SIZE - 1 in the last instance and queued
up the whole series for 3.14 in linux-pm.git/linux-next. Please have a look
at that and let me know if there's anything wrong with it.
Thanks!

Sidenote: actually this modalias/module loading issue is different and
not related to stable ACPI i2c/spi slave device names.

Oh, I'd been under the impression that it was the rewrite that was
triggering this?

IIRC issue has been there since when ACPI slave device support was added.
I have a partial fix for it in cf9eb39c6f7b ("spi: Fix modalias for ACPI
enumerated SPI devices") and when doing similar change for i2c Rui
pointed me that he has a better fix that takes care of _CID string and
platform code too.
