Message-Id: <1383472398-17812-2-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org> Date: Sun, 3 Nov 2013 04:52:40 -0500 From: Tejun Heo <tj@...nel.org> To: gregkh@...uxfoundation.org Cc: kay@...y.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, ebiederm@...ssion.com, bhelgaas@...gle.com, Tejun Heo <tj@...nel.org> Subject: [PATCH 01/39] sysfs: make __sysfs_add_one() fail if the parent isn't a directory Currently the kobject based interface guarantees that a parent sysfs_dirent is always a directory; however, the planned kernfs interface will be directly based on sysfs_dirents and the caller may specify non-directory node as the parent. Add an explicit check in __sysfs_add_one() so that such attempts fail with -EINVAL.
