      i4l: kill big kernel lock · 72250d44
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      The isdn4linux driver uses the big kernel lock only
      to serialize access to a few fields in its own
      modem_info structure.
      
      The easiest replacement is a driver-wide mutex.
      More fine-grained locking would be more appropriate
      here, but likely harder to implement.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      [ISDN]: i4l: Fix DLE handling for i4l-audio · 7fde4d77
      Matthias Goebl 提交于
      The DLE handling in i4l-audio seems to be broken.
      
      It produces spurious DLEs so asterisk 1.2.24 with chan_modem_i4l
      gets irritated, the error message is:
      "chan_modem_i4l.c:450 i4l_read: Value of escape is ^ (17)".
      -> There shouldn't be a DLE-^.
      If a spurious DLE-ETX occurs, the audio connection even dies.
      I use a "AVM Fritz!PCI" isdn card.
      
      I found two issues that only appear if ISDN_AUDIO_SKB_DLECOUNT(skb) > 0:
      - The loop in isdn_tty.c:isdn_tty_try_read() doesn't escape a DLE if it's
        the last character.
      
      - The loop in isdn_common.c:isdn_readbchan_tty() doesn't copy its characters,
        it only remembers the last one ("last = *p;").
      
        Compare it with the loop in isdn_common.c:isdn_readbchan(), that *does*
        copy them ("*cp++ = *p;") correctly.
        The special handling of the "last" character made it more difficult.
        I compared it to linux-2.4.19: There was no "last"-handling and both loops
        did escape and copy all characters correctly.

      [ISDN] i4l: 'NO CARRIER' message lost after ldisc flush · 00409bb0
      Matthias Goebl 提交于
      The ISDN tty layer doesn't produce a 'NO CARRIER' message after hangup.
      
      I suppose it broke when tty_buffer_flush() has been added to
      tty_ldisc_flush() in the commit below.
      
      For isdn_tty_modem_result(RESULT_NO_CARRIER..) the
      message inserted via isdn_tty_at_cout() -> tty_insert_flip_char()
      is flushed immediately by tty_ldisc_flush() -> tty_buffer_flush().
      More annoyingly, the audio abort sequence DLE-ETX is also lost.
      
      This patch fixes only active audio connections, because I assume that nobody
      changes the line discipline for audio.
      
      For non-audio connections the problem remains.
      Maybe we can remove the tty_ldisc_flush() in isdn_tty_modem_result()
      at all because it's done at tty_close?

      [PATCH] tty: switch to ktermios · 606d099c
      Alan Cox 提交于
      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

      [PATCH] const struct tty_operations · b68e31d0
      Jeff Dike 提交于
      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.

      [PATCH] TTY layer buffering revamp · 33f0f88f
      Alan Cox 提交于
      The API and code have been through various bits of initial review by
      serial driver people but they definitely need to live somewhere for a
      while so the unconverted drivers can get knocked into shape, existing
      drivers that have been updated can be better tuned and bugs whacked out.
      
      This replaces the tty flip buffers with kmalloc objects in rings. In the
      normal situation for an IRQ driven serial port at typical speeds the
      behaviour is pretty much the same, two buffers end up allocated and the
      kernel cycles between them as before.
      
      When there are delays or at high speed we now behave far better as the
      buffer pool can grow a bit rather than lose characters. This also means
      that we can operate at higher speeds reliably.
      
      For drivers that receive characters in blocks (DMA based, USB and
      especially virtualisation) the layer allows a lot of driver specific
      code that works around the tty layer with private secondary queues to be
      removed. The IBM folks need this sort of layer, the smart serial port
      people do, the virtualisers do (because a virtualised tty typically
      operates at infinite speed rather than emulating 9600 baud).
      
      Finally many drivers had invalid and unsafe attempts to avoid buffer
      overflows by directly invoking tty methods extracted out of the innards
      of work queue structs. These are no longer needed and all go away. That
      fixes various random hangs with serial ports on overflow.
      
      The other change in here is to optimise the receive_room path that is
      used by some callers. It turns out that only one ldisc uses receive room
      except asa constant and it updates it far far less than the value is
      read. We thus make it a variable not a function call.
      
      I expect the code to contain bugs due to the size alone but I'll be
      watching and squashing them and feeding out new patches as it goes.
      
      Because the buffers now dynamically expand you should only run out of
      buffering when the kernel runs out of memory for real.  That means a lot of
      the horrible hacks high performance drivers used to do just aren't needed any
      more.
      
      Description:
      
      tty_insert_flip_char is an old API and continues to work as before, as does
      tty_flip_buffer_push() [this is why many drivers dont need modification].  It
      does now also return the number of chars inserted
      
      There are also
      
      tty_buffer_request_room(tty, len)
      
      which asks for a buffer block of the length requested and returns the space
      found.  This improves efficiency with hardware that knows how much to
      transfer.
      
      and tty_insert_flip_string_flags(tty, str, flags, len)
      
      to insert a string of characters and flags
      
      For a smart interface the usual code is
      
          len = tty_request_buffer_room(tty, amount_hardware_says);
          tty_insert_flip_string(tty, buffer_from_card, len);
      
      More description!
      
      At the moment tty buffers are attached directly to the tty.  This is causing a
      lot of the problems related to tty layer locking, also problems at high speed
      and also with bursty data (such as occurs in virtualised environments)
      
      I'm working on ripping out the flip buffers and replacing them with a pool of
      dynamically allocated buffers.  This allows both for old style "byte I/O"
      devices and also helps virtualisation and smart devices where large blocks of
      data suddenely materialise and need storing.
      
      So far so good.  Lots of drivers reference tty->flip.*.  Several of them also
      call directly and unsafely into function pointers it provides.  This will all
      break.  Most drivers can use tty_insert_flip_char which can be kept as an API
      but others need more.
      
      At the moment I've added the following interfaces, if people think more will
      be needed now is a good time to say
      
       int tty_buffer_request_room(tty, size)
      
      Try and ensure at least size bytes are available, returns actual room (may be
      zero).  At the moment it just uses the flipbuf space but that will change.
      Repeated calls without characters being added are not cumulative.  (ie if you
      call it with 1, 1, 1, and then 4 you'll have four characters of space.  The
      other functions will also try and grow buffers in future but this will be a
      more efficient way when you know block sizes.
      
       int tty_insert_flip_char(tty, ch, flag)
      
      As before insert a character if there is room.  Now returns 1 for success, 0
      for failure.
      
       int tty_insert_flip_string(tty, str, len)
      
      Insert a block of non error characters.  Returns the number inserted.
      
       int tty_prepare_flip_string(tty, strptr, len)
      
      Adjust the buffer to allow len characters to be added.  Returns a buffer
      pointer in strptr and the length available.  This allows for hardware that
      needs to use functions like insl or mencpy_fromio.
