* nozomi: quick fix for the close/close bugAlan Cox2010-01-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nozomi goes wrong if you get the sequence open open close [stuff] close which turns out to occur on some ppp type setups. This is a quick patch up for the problem. It's not really fixing Nozomi which completely fails to implement tty open/close semantics and all the other needed stuff. Doing it right is a rather more invasive patch set and not one that will backport.

* kfifo: fix warn_unused_resultStefani Seibold2009-12-221-4/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix the "ignoring return value of '...', declared with attribute warn_unused_result" compiler warning in several users of the new kfifo API. It removes the __must_check attribute from kfifo_in() and kfifo_in_locked() which must not necessary performed. Fix the allocation bug in the nozomi driver file, by moving out the kfifo_alloc from the interrupt handler into the probe function. Fix the kfifo_out() and kfifo_out_locked() users to handle a unexpected end of fifo.

* kfifo: move out spinlockStefani Seibold2009-12-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move the pointer to the spinlock out of struct kfifo. Most users in tree do not actually use a spinlock, so the few exceptions now have to call kfifo_{get,put}_locked, which takes an extra argument to a spinlock.

* kfifo: move struct kfifo in placeStefani Seibold2009-12-221-11/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a new generic kernel FIFO implementation. The current kernel fifo API is not very widely used, because it has to many constrains. Only 17 files in the current 2.6.31-rc5 used it. FIFO's are like list's a very basic thing and a kfifo API which handles the most use case would save a lot of development time and memory resources. I think this are the reasons why kfifo is not in use: - The API is to simple, important functions are missing - A fifo can be only allocated dynamically - There is a requirement of a spinlock whether you need it or not - There is no support for data records inside a fifo So I decided to extend the kfifo in a more generic way without blowing up the API to much. The new API has the following benefits: - Generic usage: For kernel internal use and/or device driver. - Provide an API for the most use case. - Slim API: The whole API provides 25 functions. - Linux style habit. - DECLARE_KFIFO, DEFINE_KFIFO and INIT_KFIFO Macros - Direct copy_to_user from the fifo and copy_from_user into the fifo. - The kfifo itself is an in place member of the using data structure, this save an indirection access and does not waste the kernel allocator. - Lockless access: if only one reader and one writer is active on the fifo, which is the common use case, no additional locking is necessary. - Remove spinlock - give the user the freedom of choice what kind of locking to use if one is required. - Ability to handle records. Three type of records are supported: - Variable length records between 0-255 bytes, with a record size field of 1 bytes. - Variable length records between 0-65535 bytes, with a record size field of 2 bytes. - Fixed size records, which no record size field. - Preserve memory resource. - Performance! - Easy to use! This patch: Since most users want to have the kfifo as part of another object, reorganize the code to allow including struct kfifo in another data structure. This requires changing the kfifo_alloc and kfifo_init prototypes so that we pass an existing kfifo pointer into them. This patch changes the implementation and all existing users.

* nozomi: fix initialization and early flow control accessFrank Seidel2008-03-101-18/+43
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Due to some flaws in the initialization and flow control code kernel oopses could be triggered e.g. when accessing the card too early after insertion. See e.g. kernel.org bug #10077. The main part of the fix is a trivial state management making sure the card is realy ready to use before allowing any access.
