      hvc_console: Escape magic sysrq key · 368c1e32
      由 Hendrik Brueckner 提交于 
      The ctrl-o (^O) is a common control key used by several applications,
such as vim, but hvc_console uses ^O as the magic-sysrq key.  This
commit allows users to send ^O to applications by pressing ^O twice
in succession.

To implement this, this commit introduces a check if ^O is pressed
again if the sysrq_pressed variable is already set.  In this case,
clear sysrq_pressed state and flip the ^O character to the tty.  (The
old behavior has always set "sysrq_pressed" if ^O has been entered,
and it has not flipped the ^O character to the tty.)

    hvc_console: rework setup to replace irq functions with callbacks
    introduced a spinlock recursion problem. The notifier_del is
    called with a lock held, and in turns calls free_irq which then
    complains when manipulating procfs. This fixes it by moving the
    call to the notifier to outside of the locked section.

      drivers/char/hvc_console.c: adjust call to put_tty_driver · 2571cd6a
      由 Julia Lawall 提交于 
      The call to put_tty_driver is out of place and is applied to the wrong
argument.

The function enclosing the patched code calls alloc_tty_driver and stores
the result in drv.  Subsequently, there are two occurrences of error
handling code, one making a goto to put_tty and one making a goto to
stop_thread.  At the point of the first one the assignment hvc_driver = drv
has not yet been executed, and from inspecting the rest of the file it
seems that hvc_driver would be NULL.  Thus the current call to
put_tty_driver is useless, and one applied to drv is needed.  The goto
stop_thread is in the error handling code for a call to
tty_register_driver, but the error cases in tty_register_driver do not free
its argument, so it should be done here.  Thus, I have moved the put_tty
label after the stop_thread label, so that put_tty_driver is called in both
cases.

The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:

      fix spinlock recursion in hvc_console · b1b135c8

      commit 611e097d
Author: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com>
hvc_console: rework setup to replace irq functions with callbacks
introduced a spinlock recursion problem.

request_irq tries to call the handler if the IRQ is shared.
The irq handler of hvc_console calls hvc_poll and hvc_kill
which might take the hvc_struct spinlock. Therefore, we have
to call request_irq outside the spinlock.

We can move the notifier_add safely outside the spinlock as ->data must
not be changed by the backend. Otherwise, tty_hangup would fail anyway.

      hvc_console: rework setup to replace irq functions with callbacks · 611e097d
      由 Christian Borntraeger 提交于 
      This patch tries to change hvc_console to not use request_irq/free_irq if
the backend does not use irqs. This allows virtio_console to use hvc_console
without having a linker reference to request_irq/free_irq.

In addition, together with patch 2/3 it improves the performance for virtio
console input. (an earlier version of this patch was tested by Yajin on lguest)

The irq specific code is moved to hvc_irq.c and selected by the drivers that
use irqs (System p, System i, XEN).

I replaced "int irq" with the opaque "int data". The request_irq and
free_irq calls are replaced with notifier_add and notifier_del. I have also
changed the code a bit to call the notifier_add and notifier_del inside the
spinlock area as the callbacks are found via hp->ops.

Changes since last version:
o remove ifdef
o reintroduce "irq_requested" as "notified"
o cleanups, sparse..

I did not move the timer based polling into a separate polling scheme. I
played with several variants, but it seems we need to sleep/schedule in
a thread even for irq based consoles, as there are throttleing and buffer
size constraints.

I also kept hvc_struct defined in hvc_console.h so that hvc_irq.c can access
the irq_requested element.

Feedback is appreciated. virtio_console is currently the only available console
for kvm on s390. I plan to push this change as soon as all affected parties
agree on it. I would love to get test results from System p, Xen etc.

      Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by default · 83144186
      由 Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于 
      Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves.  This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.

It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.

The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie.  to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE.  It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear.  Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

      IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers · 7d12e780
      由 David Howells 提交于 
      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.

      [PATCH] const struct tty_operations · b68e31d0
      由 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] powerpc: Make rtas console _much_ faster · b5374461
      由 Michael Ellerman 提交于 
      Currently the hvc_rtas driver is painfully slow to use. Our "benchmark" is
ls -R /etc, which spits out about 27866 characters. The theoretical maximum
speed would be about 2.2 seconds, the current code takes ~50 seconds.

The core of the problem is that sometimes when the tty layer asks us to push
characters the firmware isn't able to handle some or all of them, and so
returns an error. The current code sees this and just returns to the tty code
with the buffer half sent.

The khvcd thread will eventually wake up and try to push more characters, which
will usually work because by then the firmware's had time to make room. But
the khvcd thread only wakes up every 10 milliseconds, which isn't fast enough.

So change the khvcd thread logic so that if there's an incomplete write we
yield() and then immediately try writing again. Doing so makes POLL_QUICK and
POLL_WRITE synonymous, so remove POLL_QUICK.

With this patch our "benchmark" takes ~2.8 seconds.

      [PATCH] Fix race condition in hvc console. · fb5c594c
      由 Michal Ostrowski 提交于 
      tty_schedule_flip() would schedule a thread that would call flush_to_ldisc().
If tty_buffer_request_room() gets called prior to that thread running --
which is likely in this loop in hvc_poll(), it would set the active flag
in the tty buffer and consequently flush_to_ldisc() would ignore it.

The result is that input on the hvc console is not processed.

This fix calls tty_flip_buffer_push (and flags the tty as
"low_latency").  The push to the ldisc thus happens synchronously.
