Without it sysfs <br />does not have enough information to give to udev so the lp and parport nodes <br />can be created. The only problem I have is the kernel_oops when I do the <br />following: insmod parport, insmod parport_pc, rmmod parport_pc, rmmod <br />parport, insmod parport, insmod parport_pc, rmmod parport_pc, kernel oops. <br />From the part of the traceback I can read the problem is in parport_pc_exit. <br /> Any help in tracking down the problem would be appreciated. If this is <br />acceptable how can I get this added to the mainline? This is my first patch <br />so please be gentle.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />Jason Dravet<br /><br />Signed-off-by: Jason Dravet <dravet@hotmail.com><br />--- /usr/src/linux-2.6.14/drivers/parport/parport_pc.c.orig 2005-12-30 <br />13:52:48.000000000 -0600<br />+++ /usr/src/linux-2.6.14/drivers/parport/parport_pc.c 2005-12-30 <br />19:56:20.000000000 -0600<br />@@ -55,6 +55,7 @@<br />#include <linux/pci.h><br />#include <linux/pnp.h><br />#include <linux/sysctl.h><br />+#include <linux/sysfs.h><br /><br />#include <asm/io.h><br />#include <asm/dma.h><br />@@ -99,6 +100,8 @@ static struct superio_struct { /* For Su<br /> int dma;<br />} superios[NR_SUPERIOS] __devinitdata = { {0,},};<br /><br />+static struct class *parallel_class;<br />+<br />static int user_specified;<br />#if defined(CONFIG_PARPORT_PC_SUPERIO) || \<br /> (defined(CONFIG_PARPORT_1284) && defined(CONFIG_PARPORT_PC_FIFO))<br />@@ -2232,6 +2235,25 @@ struct parport *parport_pc_probe_port (u<br /> is mandatory (see above) */<br /> p->dma = PARPORT_DMA_NONE;<br /><br />+ parallel_class = class_create(THIS_MODULE, "lp");<br />+ if (p->base == 888) /* 888 is dec for 378h */<br />+ {<br />+ class_device_create(parallel_class, NULL, MKDEV(6, 0), NULL, "lp0");<br />+ class_device_create(parallel_class, NULL, MKDEV(99, 0), NULL, <br />"parport0");<br />+ }<br />+<br />+ if (p->base == 632) /* 632 is dec for 278h */<br />+ {<br />+ class_device_create(parallel_class, NULL, MKDEV(6, 1), NULL, "lp1");<br />+ class_device_create(parallel_class, NULL, MKDEV(99, 1), NULL, <br />"parport1");<br />+ }<br />+<br />+ if (p->base == 956) /* 956 is dec for 3BCh */<br />+ {<br />+ class_device_create(parallel_class, NULL, MKDEV(6, 2), NULL, "lp2");<br />+ class_device_create(parallel_class, NULL, MKDEV(99, 2), NULL, <br />"parport2");<br />+ }<br />+<br />#ifdef CONFIG_PARPORT_PC_FIFO<br /> if (parport_ECP_supported(p) &&<br /> p->dma != PARPORT_DMA_NOFIFO &&<br />@@ -3406,6 +3428,13 @@ static void __exit parport_pc_exit(void)<br /> if (pnp_registered_parport)<br /> pnp_unregister_driver (&parport_pc_pnp_driver);<br /><br />+ class_device_destroy(parallel_class, MKDEV(99, 2));<br />+ class_device_destroy(parallel_class, MKDEV(6, 2));<br />+ class_device_destroy(parallel_class, MKDEV(99, 1));<br />+ class_device_destroy(parallel_class, MKDEV(6, 1));<br />+ class_device_destroy(parallel_class, MKDEV(99, 0));<br />+ class_device_destroy(parallel_class, MKDEV(6, 0));<br />+<br /> spin_lock(&ports_lock);<br /> while (!list_empty(&ports_list)) {<br /> struct parport_pc_private *priv;<br /><br /><br />-<br />To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in<br />the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org<br />More majordomo info at <a href="http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html">http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html</a><br />Please read the FAQ at <a href="http://www.tux.org/lkml/">http://www.tux.org/lkml/</a><br /><br /></pre></td><td width="32" rowspan="2" class="c" valign="top"><img src="/images/icornerr.gif" width="32" height="32" alt="\" /></td></tr><tr><td align="right" valign="bottom"> 聽 </td></tr><tr><td align="right" valign="bottom">聽</td><td class="c" valign="bottom" style="padding-bottom: 0px"><img src="/images/bcornerl.gif" width="32" height="32" alt="\" /></td><td class="c">聽</td><td class="c" valign="bottom" style="padding-bottom: 0px"><img src="/images/bcornerr.gif" width="32" height="32" alt="/" /></td></tr><tr><td align="right" valign="top" colspan="2"> 聽 </td><td class="lm">Last update: 2005-12-31 18:22 聽聽 [from the cache]<br />漏2003-2020 <a href="http://blog.jasper.es/"><span itemprop="editor">Jasper Spaans</span></a>|hosted at <a href="https://www.digitalocean.com/?refcode=9a8e99d24cf9">Digital Ocean</a> and my Meterkast|<a href="http://blog.jasper.es/categories.html#lkml-ref">Read the blog</a></td><td>聽</td></tr></table><script language="javascript" src="/js/styleswitcher.js" type="text/javascript"></script></body></html>
