| * | powerpc: Introduce a new config symbol to control 16550 early debug codePaul Mackerras2006-01-105-8/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous change by Kumar Gala in this area led to legacy_serial.c and udbg_16550.c being built as modules when CONFIG_SERIAL_8250=m. Fix this by introducing a new symbol, CONFIG_PPC_UDBG_16550, to control whether these files get built, and arrange for it to be selected for those platforms that need it.

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.

* | | [PATCH] sanitize building of fs/compat_ioctl.cChristoph Hellwig2006-01-1014-316/+7

We need a special do_ioctl32_pointer handler for s390 so the compat_ptr call is done. This is not needed but harmless on all other architectures. Also remove some superflous includes in fs/compat_ioctl.c Tested on ppc64. [1] parisc still had it's PPP handler left, which is not fully correct for ppp and besides that ppp uses the generic SIOCPRIV ioctl so it'd kick in for all netdevice users. We can introduce a proper handler in one of the next patch series by adding a compat_ioctl method to struct net_device but for now let's just kill it - parisc doesn't compile in mainline anyway and I don't want this to block this patchset.

Unlike the previous attempt this one does not replace the ioctl method with an unlocked_ioctl method so that the ioctl_by_bdev calls in s390 partition code continue to work.

* | | [PATCH] move rtc compat ioctl handling to fs/compat_ioctl.cChristoph Hellwig2006-01-102-66/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch implements generic handling of RTC_IRQP_READ32, RTC_IRQP_SET32, RTC_EPOCH_READ32 and RTC_EPOCH_SET32 in fs/compat_ioctl.c. It's based on the x86_64 code which needed a little massaging to be endian-clean. parisc used COMPAT_IOCTL or generic w_long handlers for these whichce is wrong and can't work because the ioctls encode sizeof(unsigned long) in their ioctl number. parisc also duplicated COMPAT_IOCTL entries for other rtc ioctls which I remove in this patch, too.

The following patch ends that dependency. I thought of hiding it under CONFIG_KEXEC, but CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START could also be used for some reasons other than kexec/kdump and hence left it visible. I will also update the documentation accordingly. o Following patch removes the config dependency of CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START on CONFIG_EMBEDDED. The reason being CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP option for kdump needs CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START which makes CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP depend on CONFIG_EMBEDDED. It is not always obvious for kdump users to choose CONFIG_EMBEDDED. o It also shifts the palce where this option appears, to make it closer to kexec and kdump options.

One of the concerns ppc64 folks raised is that after capturing the register states, one should not pop the current call frame and push new one. Hence it has been inlined. More call frames later get pushed on to stack (machine_crash_shutdown() and machine_kexec()), but one will not want to backtrace those. - Not very sure about the CFI annotations. With this patch I am getting decent backtrace with gdb. Assuming, compiler has generated enough debugging information for crash_kexec(). Coding crash_setup_regs() in pure assembly makes it tricky because then it can not be inlined and we don't want to return back after capturing register states we don't want to pop this call frame. - Saving the non-panicing cpus registers will be done in the NMI handler while shooting down them in machine_crash_shutdown. - Introducing CRASH_DUMP option in Kconfig for x86_64.
