a60e84a060 syscall: rename module name to syscall_steal
In Debian, the name syscall conflicts with this patch:
in debian kernel source tree:
debian/patches/features/x86/x86-make-x32-syscall-support-conditional.patch
mailing list url:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1415245982.3398.53.camel@decadent.org.uk/T/#u
which introduces a parameter named syscall.x32. So change our name.

Replace schedule_work with queue_work
schedule_work adds work to global workqueue. In this example, we create a local workqueue. Use the local workqueue by calling queue_work(), instead of putting work on the global workqueue.

Change word in tasklet description
The word 'defator' is unable to be found in a lexicon. Change the word
'defator' with 'drawbacks' which should imply the negative meaning intended
in the sentence.

Add newline to last pr_info to force dmesg to flush
2023-09-29 02:28:23 +08:00

e56fc58bf3 Add newline to last pr_info to force dmesg to flush
dmesg only flushes when it encounter a newline. Without a newline, the line
is held in memory pending another printk. In this particular example
(example_atomic.c), the last pr_info in atomic_bitwise() prints when
another printk happens (either by another module, or __exit for this
module.

This can be confusing to new learner. This patch adds a newline to the last
pr_info forcing dmesg to print to the screen when the module is loaded.

bf523b2332 Simplify code by removal of outer struct
Two struct completion(s) are encapsulated within another 'struct machine'.
Simplify the code by removing the outer struct and let the struct
completion(s) be self-standing.

Update description in tex to match code.

CI: Fix "unreplaced" warnings by using git source (#229)
Because of sparse-latest.tar.gz has not been updated since 06-Sep-2021,
we are encoutering an old bug, 0e1aae55e49c ("fix "unreplaced" warnings
caused by using typeof() on inline functions") [1], that has been fixed
in the newest version. So, let's switch to the git source tree [2]
instead of using sparse-latest.tar.gz [3].

Remove module * parameter from class_create() (#222)
From v6.4, class_create() does not have module *
See commit 11ba11 :
> driver core: class: remove module * from class_create()
> 
> The module pointer in class_create() never actually did anything,
> and it shouldn't have been requred to be set as a parameter even
> if it did something.  So just remove it and fix up all callers of the
> function in the kernel tree at the same time.

b9b37fc39f kbleds: Replace magic with driver_name
Since the commit 5052df99d3bc ("tty: remove TTY_DRIVER_MAGIC") [1],
the magic field no longer exists in the tty_driver. Instead of
printing the magic field, use the driver_name field.
