* tty: n_gsm line disciplineAlan Cox2010-05-211-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add an implementation of GSM 0710 MUX. The implementation currently supports - Basic and advanced framing (as either end of the link) - UI or UIH data frames - Adaption layer 1-4 (1 and 2 via tty, 3 and 4 as skbuff lists) - Modem and control messages including the correct retry process - Flow control and exposes the MUX channels as a set of virtual tty devices including modem signals. This is an experimental driver. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

| * tty_port,usb-console: Fix usb serial console open/close regressionJason Wessel2010-03-191-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit e1108a63e10d344284011cccc06328b2cd3e5da3 ("usb_serial: Use the shutdown() operation") breaks the ability to use a usb console starting in 2.6.33. This was observed when using console=ttyUSB0,115200 as a boot argument with an FTDI device. The error is: ftdi_sio ttyUSB0: ftdi_submit_read_urb - failed submitting read urb, error -22 The handling of the ASYNCB_INITIALIZED changed in 2.6.32 such that in tty_port_shutdown() it always clears the flag if it is set. The fix is to add a variable to the tty_port struct to indicate when the tty port is a console.

| * tty: Take a 256 byte padding into account when buffering below sub-page unitsMel Gorman2010-03-191-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The TTY layer takes some care to ensure that only sub-page allocations are made with interrupts disabled. It does this by setting a goal of "TTY_BUFFER_PAGE" to allocate. Unfortunately, while TTY_BUFFER_PAGE takes the size of tty_buffer into account, it fails to account that tty_buffer_find() rounds the buffer size out to the next 256 byte boundary before adding on the size of the tty_buffer. This patch adjusts the TTY_BUFFER_PAGE calculation to take into account the size of the tty_buffer and the padding. Once applied, tty_buffer_alloc() should not require high-order allocations.

* tty: Keep the default buffering to sub-page unitsAlan Cox2010-03-021-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | We allocate during interrupts so while our buffering is normally diced up small anyway on some hardware at speed we can pressure the VM excessively for page pairs.

* vt: introduce and use vt_kmsg_redirect() functionBernhard Walle2009-12-151-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel offers with TIOCL_GETKMSGREDIRECT ioctl() the possibility to redirect the kernel messages to a specific console. However, since it's not possible to switch to the kernel message console after a panic(), it would be nice if the kernel would print the panic message on the current console. This patch series adds a new interface to access the global kmsg_redirect variable by a function to be able to use it in code where CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE is not set (kernel/panic.c). This patch: Instead of using and exporting a global value kmsg_redirect, introduce a function vt_kmsg_redirect() that both can set and return the console where messages are printed. Change all users of kmsg_redirect (the VT code itself and kernel/power.c) to the new interface. The main advantage is that vt_kmsg_redirect() can also be used when CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE is not set.

* | pty: avoid forcing 'low_latency' tty flagOGAWA Hirofumi2009-07-291-0/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We really don't want to mark the pty as a low-latency device, because as Alan points out, the ->write method can be called from an IRQ (ppp?), and that means we can't use ->low_latency=1 as we take mutexes in the low_latency case. So rather than using low_latency to force the written data to be pushed to the ldisc handling at 'write()' time, just make the reader side (or the poll function) do the flush when it checks whether there is data to be had. This also fixes the problem with lost data in an emacs compile buffer (bugzilla 13815), and we can thus revert the low_latency pty hack (commit 3a54297478e6578f96fd54bf4daa1751130aca86: "pty: quickfix for the pty ENXIO timing problems").

* tty: rewrite the ldisc lockingAlan Cox2009-06-111-2/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are several pretty much unfixable races in the old ldisc code, especially with respect to pty behaviour and also to hangup. It's easier to rewrite the code than simply try and patch it up. This patch - splits the ldisc from the tty (so we will be able to refcount it more cleanly later) - introduces a mutex lock for ldisc changing on an active device - fixes the complete mess that hangup caused - implements hopefully correct setldisc/close/hangup locking There are still some problems around pty pairs that have always been there but at least it is now possible to understand the code and fix further problems. This fixes the following known bugs - hang up can leak ldisc references - hang up may not call open/close on ldisc in a matched way - pty/tty pairs can deadlock during an ldisc change - reading the ldisc proc files can cause every ldisc to be loaded and probably a few other of the mysterious ldisc race reports.

* n_tty: Fix loss of echoed characters and remove bkl from n_ttyJoe Peterson2009-01-021-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes the loss of echoed (and other ldisc-generated characters) when the tty is stopped or when the driver output buffer is full (happens frequently for input during continuous program output, such as ^C) and removes the Big Kernel Lock from the N_TTY line discipline. Adds an "echo buffer" to the N_TTY line discipline that handles all ldisc-generated output (including echoed characters). Along with the loss of characters, this also fixes the associated loss of sync between tty output and the ldisc state when characters cannot be immediately written to the tty driver. The echo buffer stores (in addition to characters) state operations that need to be done at the time of character output (like management of the column position). This allows echo to cooperate correctly with program output, since the ldisc state remains consistent with actual characters written. Since the echo buffer code now isolates the tty column state code to the process_out* and process_echoes functions, we can remove the Big Kernel Lock (BKL) and replace it with mutex locks. Highlights are: * Handles echo (and other ldisc output) when tty driver buffer is full - continuous program output can block echo * Saves echo when tty is in stopped state (e.g. ^S) - (e.g.: ^Q will correctly cause held characters to be released for output) * Control character pairs (e.g. "^C") are treated atomically and not split up by interleaved program output * Line discipline state is kept consistent with characters sent to the tty driver * Remove the big kernel lock (BKL) from N_TTY line discipline Signed-off-by: Joe Peterson <joe@skyrush.com> Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Aristeau Rozanski showed while debugging the vt sysfs race that this isn't entirely safe. Instead of driver side tricks to work around this introduce a shutdown which is called when the tty is being destructed. This also means that the shutdown method is tied into the refcounting. Use this to rework the console close/sysfs logic. Remove lots of special case code from the tty core code. The pty code can now have a shutdown() method that replaces the special case hackery in the tree free up paths.

| | | | | | | | We now have the infrastructure to sort this out but rather than teaching the syscall tty lock rules we move the hard work into a tty helper Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* tty: usb-serial krefsAlan Cox2008-10-131-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Use kref in the USB serial drivers so that we don't free tty structures from under the URB receive handlers as has historically been the case if you were unlucky. This also gives us a framework for general tty drivers to use tty_port objects and refcount. Contains two err->dev_err changes merged together to fix clashes in the -next tree.

* tty: Add termioxAlan Cox2008-10-131-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | We need a way to describe the various additional modes and flow control features that random weird hardware shows up and software such as wine wants to emulate as Windows supports them. TCGETX/TCSETX and the termiox ioctl are a SYS5 extension that we might as well adopt. This patches adds the structures and the basic ioctl interfaces when the TCGETX etc defines are added for an architecture. Drivers wishing to use this stuff need to add new methods.

* tty: Add a kref countAlan Cox2008-10-131-0/+18
| | | | | | | | Introduce a kref to the tty structure and use it to protect the tty->signal tty references. For now we don't introduce it for anything else. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* pps: Reserve a line discipline number for PPSAlan Cox2008-10-131-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | Add a new line discipline for "pulse per second" devices connected to a serial port. Signed-off-by: Rodolfo Giometti <giometti@linux.it> Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* tty: split the buffering from tty_ioAlan Cox2008-10-131-0/+3
| | | | | | | | The two are basically independent chunks of code so lets split them up for readability and sanity. It also makes the API boundaries much clearer. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
