We don't need it while waiting and we can lock the ioctls using the port mutex. While at it eliminate use of the hangup mutex and switch to the port mutex. Signed-off-by:

Alan Cox authored
We can use the port mutex for this and also for the hangup path so removing the problematic use of the hangup mutex in this driver. Fix up the locking on the various port flags while we are at it. Ultimately this driver needs to be using tty_port_ helpers which would sort this out far better. Signed-off-by:

As with the others we can use the port mutex to get the needed locking properties and fix the race with open. Signed-off-by:

The riscom8 board uses lock_kernel to protect bits of the port setting ioctl logic. We can use the port mutex for this as the logic is internal and will also lock set versus open (a locking property that has been lost somewhere along the way) Signed-off-by:

Remove unneeded tty layer lock kernel bits. Relock the needed bits using the port mutex. The istallion still has brd state races but those are not new or introduced by the removal of the lock_kernel logic. Signed-off-by:

Jesse's initial patch commit said: "At panic time (i.e. when oops_in_progress is set) we should try a bit harder to update the screen and make sure output gets to the VT, since some drivers are capable of flipping back to it. So make sure we try to unblank and update the display if called from a panic context." I've enhanced this to add a flag to the vc that console layer can set to indicate they want this behaviour to occur. This also adds support to fbcon for that flag and adds an fb flag for drivers to indicate they want to use the support. It enables this for KMS drivers. Signed-off-by:

This patch is against the 2.6.34 source. Paraphrased from the 1989 BSD patch by David Borman @ cray.com: These are the changes needed for the kernel to support LINEMODE in the server. There is a new bit in the termios local flag word, EXTPROC. When this bit is set, several aspects of the terminal driver are disabled. Input line editing, character echo, and mapping of signals are all disabled. This allows the telnetd to turn off these functions when in linemode, but still keep track of what state the user wants the terminal to be in. New ioctl: TIOCSIG Generate a signal to processes in the current process group of the pty. There is a new mode for packet driver, the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit. When packet mode is turned on in the pty, and the EXTPROC bit is set, then whenever the state of the pty is changed, the next read on the master side of the pty will have the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit set. This allows the process on the server side of the pty to know when the state of the terminal has changed; it can then issue the appropriate ioctl to retrieve the new state. Since the original BSD patches accompanied the source code for telnet I've left that reference here, but obviously the feature is useful for any remote terminal protocol, including ssh. The corresponding feature has existed in the BSD tty driver since 1989. For historical reference, a good copy of the relevant files can be found here: http://anonsvn.mit.edu/viewvc/krb5/trunk/src/appl/telnet/?pathrev=17741Signed-off-by:Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com> Cc: Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk> Signed-off-by:

As Jeff Dike pointed out, the Hayes ESP driver was removed in commit f53a2ade, so these ioctl definitions should also be removed. This cleans up the remaining arch-specific locations of this ioctl value. Thanks to Arnd for pointing these out.

The mrst_max3110 driver had a set of unsafe wakeup sequences along the following line: if (!atomic_read(&foo)) { atomic_set(&foo, 1); wake_up(worker_thread); } and the worker thread would do if (atomic_read(&foo)) { do_work(); atomic_set(&foo, 0); } which can result in various missed wakups due to test-then-set races, as well as due to clear-after-work instead of clear-before-work. This patch fixes these races by using the proper bit test-and-set operations, and by doing clear-before-work. Signed-off-by:Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by:

Arjan van de Ven authored
The mrst_max3110.c driver uses an open coded, non atomic variable to create exclusion between two of its worker threads. More than that, while the main thread does a proper set-work-clear sequence, the other thread only does a test, with the result that no actual exclusion is happening. this patch replaces this open coded variable with a proper mutex in addition, the 'lock' spinlock is removed from the per adapter structure, the lock was only ever initialized but never used Signed-off-by:

MAX3111 is the SPI/UART IC installed on the MRST SPI Port Card as a serial debug goal, and the SPI Port Card will be frequently mounted and unmounted from the main board by developers depending whether debug serial is required or not. As the MAX3111 has no subvendor or product id registers available, the patch will try to access one register to decide if this IC is present or not. Signed-off-by:

This driver enable the max3110 device, it can be used as a system console. the IRQ needs be enabled if user want a better performance. MRST max3110 works in 3.684MHz clock, which supports 230400 as its maximum rate. Signed-off-by:

This change addresses the following situation: - Thread A acquires the rwsem for read - Thread B tries to acquire the rwsem for write, notices there is already an active owner for the rwsem. - Thread C tries to acquire the rwsem for read, notices that thread B already tried to acquire it. - Thread C grabs the spinlock and queues itself on the wait queue. - Thread B grabs the spinlock and queues itself behind C. At this point A is the only remaining active owner on the rwsem. In this situation thread B could notice that it was the last active writer on the rwsem, and decide to wake C to let it proceed in parallel with A since they both only want the rwsem for read.

Previously each waiting thread added a bias of RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS. With this change, the bias is added only once to indicate that the wait list is non-empty. This has a few nice properties which will be used in following changes: - when the spinlock is held and the waiter list is known to be non-empty, count < RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS <=> there is an active writer on that sem - count == RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS <=> there are waiting threads and no active readers/writers on that sem Signed-off-by: -
Michel Lespinasse authored
In __rwsem_do_wake(), we can skip the active count check unless we come there from up_xxxx(). Also when checking the active count, it is not actually necessary to increment it; this allows us to get rid of the read side undo code and simplify the calculation of the final rwsem count adjustment once we've counted the reader threads to wake. The basic observation is the following. When there are waiter threads on a rwsem and the spinlock is held, other threads can only increment the active count by trying to grab the rwsem in down_xxxx(). However down_xxxx() will notice there are waiter threads and take the down_failed path, blocking to acquire the spinlock on the way there. Therefore, a thread observing an active count of zero with waiters queued and the spinlock held, is protected against other threads acquiring the rwsem until it wakes the last waiter or releases the spinlock.

Michel Lespinasse authored
This is in preparation for later changes in the series. In __rwsem_do_wake(), the first queued waiter is checked first in order to determine whether it's a writer or a reader. The code paths diverge at this point. The code that checks and increments the rwsem active count is duplicated on both sides - the point is that later changes in the series will be able to independently modify both sides. Signed-off-by:
