  43

  Keyboard struct lifetime is easy, but the locking is not and is completely
  ignored by the existing code. Tackle this one head on

  - Make the kbd_table private so we can run down all direct users
  - Hoick the relevant ioctl handlers into the keyboard layer
  - Lock them with the keyboard lock so they don't change mid keypress
  - Add helpers for things like console stop/start so we isolate the poking
  around properly
  - Tweak the braille console so it still builds

  There are a couple of FIXME locking cases left for ioctls that are so hideous
  they should be addressed in a later patch. After this patch the kbd_table is
  private and all the keyboard jiggery pokery is in one place.

  This update fixes speakup and also a memory leak in the original.

• 90ab5ee94   module_param: make bool parameters really bool (drivers & misc) ... Browse Code »

  86

  module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int. In
  fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy
  trick.

  It's time to remove the int/unsigned int option. For this version
  it'll simply give a warning, but it'll break next kernel version.

  kbuild.h forces include of autoconf.h on the
  commandline using -include - so we do not need to
  include the file explicit.

• f7511d5f6   Basic braille screen reader support ... Browse Code »

  This adds a minimalistic braille screen reader support. This is meant to
  be used by blind people e.g. on boot failures or when / cannot be mounted
  etc and thus the userland screen readers can not work.
