  • Some hardware needs to do break handling itself and may have partial
    support only. Make break_ctl return an error code. Add a tty driver flag
    so you can indicate driver hardware side break support.

  • Move the line disciplines towards a conventional ->ops arrangement. For
    the moment the actual 'tty_ldisc' struct in the tty is kept as part of
    the tty struct but this can then be changed if it turns out that when it
    all settles down we want to refcount ldiscs separately to the tty.

    Pull the ldisc code out of /proc and put it with our ldisc code.

    - Remove private put_char method that does a write call for one char - we
    have that anyway

    - Most but not yet all of the termios copy under lock fixing (some has other
    dependencies to follow)

    - Note a few locking bugs in drivers found in the process

    - Kill remaining [ab]users of TIOCG/SSOFTCAR in the driver, these must go to
    fix the termios locking

  • This is the grungy swap all the occurrences in the right places patch that
    goes with the updates. At this point we have the same functionality as
    before (except that sgttyb() returns speeds not zero) and are ready to
    begin turning new stuff on providing nobody reports lots of bugs

    If you are a tty driver author converting an out of tree driver the only
    impact should be termios->ktermios name changes for the speed/property
    setting functions from your upper layers.

    If you are implementing your own TCGETS function before then your driver
    was broken already and its about to get a whole lot more painful for you so
    please fix it 8)

    Also fill in c_ispeed/ospeed on init for most devices, although the current
    code will do this for you anyway but I'd like eventually to lose that extra
    paranoia

  • Fix compile errors on mismatch between generic HDLC and synclink drivers.

    Notes:

    generic HDLC support for synclink drivers is *optional* so you can't just
    use depend on in Kconfig

    This solution is deemed the best after 7 months of review and criticism by
    many developers including AKPM. Read the threads on LKML before posting
    about this solution.

  • Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
    of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
    Linux kernel.

    The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
    space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
    from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
    (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

    Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
    something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
    maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
    handling.

    Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
    through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
    device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
    interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
    device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
    layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

    I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
    main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
    I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
    with minimal configurations.

    This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
    Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

    struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

    And put the old one back at the end:

    set_irq_regs(old_regs);

    Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

    In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

    - update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
    - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
    + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
    + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

    I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
    except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

    Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

    (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
    the input_dev struct.

    (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
    something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
    pointer or not.

    (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
    irq_handler_t.

  • As part of an SMP cleanliness pass over UML, I consted a bunch of
    structures in order to not have to document their locking. One of these
    structures was a struct tty_operations. In order to const it in UML
    without introducing compiler complaints, the declaration of
    tty_set_operations needs to be changed, and then all of its callers need to
    be fixed.

    This patch declares all struct tty_operations in the tree as const. In all
    cases, they are static and used only as input to tty_set_operations. As an
    extra check, I ran an i386 allyesconfig build which produced no extra
    warnings.

    53 drivers are affected. I checked the history of a bunch of them, and in
    most cases, there have been only a handful of maintenance changes in the
    last six months. serial_core.c was the busiest one that I looked at.

  • asm/serial.h is supposed to contain the definitions for the architecture
    specific 8250 ports for the 8250 driver. It may also define BASE_BAUD,
    but this is the base baud for the architecture specific ports _only_.

    Therefore, nothing other than the 8250 driver should be including this
    header file. In order to move towards this goal, here is a patch which
    removes some of the more obvious incorrect includes of the file.
