2011-11-15tty: hvc_dcc: Fix duplicate character inputsStephen Boyd1-0/+2
Reading from the DCC grabs a character from the buffer and clears the status bit. Since this is a context-changing operation, instructions following the character read that rely on the status bit being accurate need to be synchronized with an ISB. In this case, the status bit check needs to execute after the character read otherwise we run the risk of reading the character and checking the status bit before the read can clear the status bit in the first place. When this happens, the user will see the same character they typed twice, instead of once. Add an ISB after the read and the write, so that the status check is synchronized with the read/write operations.

2011-11-06Revert "hvc_console: display printk messages on console."Linus Torvalds1-6/+1
This reverts commit 361162459f62dc0826b82c9690a741a940f457f0. It causes an infinite loop when booting Linux under Xen, as so: [ 2.382984] console [hvc0] enabled [ 2.382984] console [hvc0] enabled [ 2.382984] console [hvc0] enabled ... as reported by Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk. And Rusty reports the same for lguest. He goes on to say: "This is not a concurrency problem: the issue seems to be that calling register_console() twice on the same struct console is a bad idea." and Greg says he'll fix it up properly at some point later. Revert for now.

2011-10-18hvc_console: display printk messages on console.Miche Baker-Harvey1-1/+6
printk only works for "registered consoles." Currently, the hvc_console code calls register_console() from hvc_instantiate(), but that's only used in the early console case. In hvc_alloc(), register_console() was not called. Add a call to register_console() in hvc_alloc(), set up the index in the hvc_console, and set up the necessary vtermnos[] and cons_op[] entries so that printk functions work.

2011-09-20powerpc/powernv: Support for OPAL consoleBenjamin Herrenschmidt4-2/+436
This adds a udbg and an hvc console backend for supporting a console using the OPAL console interfaces. On OPAL v1 we have hvc0 mapped to whatever console the system was configured for (network or hvsi serial port) via the service processor. On OPAL v2 we have hvcN mapped to the Nth console provided by OPAL which generally corresponds to: hvc0 : network console (raw protocol) hvc1 : serial port S1 (hvsi) hvc2 : serial port S2 (hvsi) Note: At this point, early debug console only works with OPAL v1 and shouldn't be enabled in a normal kernel.

2011-07-19powerpc/pseries: Fix hvterm_raw_get_chars to accept < 16 chars, fixing xmonAnton Blanchard1-21/+37
commit 4d2bb3f50036 (powerpc/pseries: Re-implement HVSI as part of hvc_vio) changed udbg_getc to be based on hvterm_raw_get_chars. Unfortunately hvterm_raw_get_chars returns -EAGAIN if you ask for anything less than 16 characters. As a result xmon no longer accepts input and prints a stream of junk to the screen. The recent change highlights a problem that xmon on pseries VIO has had all along, that it can drop input characters. The issue is the hypervisor call does not take a count argument and can return up to 16 characters. This patch adds a per vterm buffer that we copy input data into and give it out as requested.

2011-07-19hvc_console: Improve tty/console put_chars handlingHendrik Brueckner1-3/+5
Currently, the hvc_console_print() function drops console output if the hvc backend's put_chars() returns 0. This patch changes this behavior to allow a retry through returning -EAGAIN. This change also affects the hvc_push() function. Both functions are changed to handle -EAGAIN and to retry the put_chars() operation. If a hvc backend returns -EAGAIN, the retry handling differs: - hvc_console_print() spins to write the complete console output. - hvc_push() behaves the same way as for returning 0. Now hvc backends can indirectly control the way how console output is handled through the hvc console layer.

2011-06-29powerpc/pseries: Re-implement HVSI as part of hvc_vioBenjamin Herrenschmidt5-35/+725
On pseries machines, consoles are provided by the hypervisor using a low level get_chars/put_chars type interface. However, this is really just a transport to the service processor which implements them either as "raw" console (networked consoles, HMC, ...) or as "hvsi" serial ports. The later is a simple packet protocol on top of the raw character interface that is supposed to convey additional "serial port" style semantics. In practice however, all it does is provide a way to read the CD line and set/clear our DTR line, that's it. We currently implement the "raw" protocol as an hvc console backend (/dev/hvcN) and the "hvsi" protocol using a separate tty driver (/dev/hvsi0). However this is quite impractical. The arbitrary difference between the two type of devices has been a major source of user (and distro) confusion. Additionally, there's an additional mini -hvsi implementation in the pseries platform code for our low level debug console and early boot kernel messages, which means code duplication, though that low level variant is impractical as it's incapable of doing the initial protocol negociation to establish the link to the FSP. This essentially replaces the dedicated hvsi driver and the platform udbg code completely by extending the existing hvc_vio backend used in "raw" mode so that: - It now supports HVSI as well - We add support for hvc backend providing tiocm{get,set} - It also provides a udbg interface for early debug and boot console This is overall less code, though this will only be obvious once we remove the old "hvsi" driver, which is still available for now. When the old driver is enabled, the new code still kicks in for the low level udbg console, replacing the old mini implementation in the platform code, it just doesn't provide the higher level "hvc" interface. In addition to producing generally simler code, this has several benefits over our current situation: - The user/distro only has to deal with /dev/hvcN for the hypervisor console, avoiding all sort of confusion that has plagued us in the past - The tty, kernel and low level debug console all use the same code base which supports the full protocol establishment process, thus the console is now available much earlier than it used to be with the old HVSI driver. The kernel console works much earlier and udbg is available much earlier too. Hackers can enable a hard coded very-early debug console as well that works with HVSI (previously that was only supported for the "raw" mode). I've tried to keep the same semantics as hvsi relative to how I react to things like CD changes, with some subtle differences though: - I clear DTR on close if HUPCL is set - Current hvsi triggers a hangup if it detects a up->down transition on CD (you can still open a console with CD down). My new implementation triggers a hangup if the link to the FSP is severed, and severs it upon detecting a up->down transition on CD. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2011-03-10xen/hvc: Disable probe_irq_on/off from poking the hvc-console IRQ line.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk1-0/+2
This fixes a particular nasty racing problem found when using Xen hypervisor with the console (hvc) output being routed to the serial port and the serial port receiving data when probe_irq_off(probe_irq_on) is running. Specifically the bug manifests itself with: [ 4.470693] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000008 [ 4.470693] IP: [<ffffffff810a8c65>] handle_IRQ_event+0xe/0xc9 ..snip..

The functions utilize the sleep functions so the minimum time they are run is 120 msec. B). Xen hypervisor receiving on the serial line any character and setting the bits in the event channel - during this 120 msec timeframe. C). The hvc API makes a call to 'request_irq' (and hence setting desc->action to a valid value), much much later - when user space opens /dev/console (hvc_open). To make the console usable during bootup, the Xen HVC implementation sets the IRQ chip (and correspondingly the event channel) much earlier. The IRQ chip handler that is used is the handle_percpu_irq (aaca49642b92c8a57d3ca5029a5a94019c7af69f) Back to the issue. When A) is being called it ends up calling the xen_percpu_chip's chip->startup twice and chip->shutdown once. Those are set to the default_startup and mask_irq (events.c) respectivly. If (and this seems to depend on what serial concentrator you use), B) gets data from the serial port it sets in the event channel a pending bit. When A) calls chip->startup(), the masking of the pending bit, and unmasking of the event channel mask, and also setting of the upcall_pending flag is done (since there is data present on the event channel). If before the 120 msec has elapsed, any IRQ handler (Xen IRQ has one IRQ handler, which checks the event channels bitmap to figure which one to call) is called we end up calling the handle_percpu_irq. The handle_percpu_irq calls desc->action (which is NULL) and we blow up. Caveats: I could only reproduce this on 2.6.32 pvops. I am not sure why this is not showing up on 2.6.38 kernel. The probe_irq_on/off has code to disable poking specific IRQ lines. This is done by using the set_irq_noprobe() and then we do not have to worry about the handle_percpu_irq being called before the IRQ action handler has been installed.

2011-03-02powerpc/pseries: Reduce HVCS driver insanityBenjamin Herrenschmidt1-31/+43
The HVCS driver, for those who don't know, is a driver for the "server" side of the IBM virtual terminal mechanism allowing Linux partitions to act as terminal servers under IBM PowerVM hypervisor. It's almost never used on the field at the moment. However, it's part of our configs, and in its current incarnation, will allocate the tty driver & major (with 64 minors) and create a kernel thread whether it's used or not, ie, whether the hypervisor did put a virtual terminal server device node in the partition or not (or whether running on a pseries machine or not even). This in turns causes modern distro's udev's to start trying to open all those 64 minors at boot, which, since they aren't linked to anything, causes the driver to spew errors in the kernel log for each of them. Not nice. This moves all that initialization to a function which is now only called the first time a terminal server virtual IO device is actually probed (that is almost never). There's still a _LOT_ of cleanup that can be done in this driver, some simple (almost all printk's statements in there shall either just be removed or in some case turned into better written & more informative messages, including using the dev_* variants etc...). This is left as an exercise for whoever actually cares about that driver. One could also try to be smart and dispose of all the tty related resources when the last instance of the VIO server device is removed (Hotplug anybody ?).

2011-02-17tiocmget: kill off the passing of the struct fileAlan Cox1-1/+1
We don't actually need this and it causes problems for internal use of this functionality. Currently there is a single use of the FILE * pointer. That is the serial core which uses it to check tty_hung_up_p. However if that is true then IO_ERROR is also already set so the check may be removed.

This converts the existing bfin_jtag_comm TTY driver to the HVC layer so that the common HVC code can worry about all of the TTY/polling crap and leave the Blackfin code to worry about the Blackfin bits.

2011-02-03hvc_dcc: Simplify assembly for v6 and v7 ARMStephen Boyd1-24/+0
The inline assembly differences for v6 vs. v7 in the hvc_dcc driver are purely optimizations. On a v7 processor, an mrc with the pc sets the condition codes to the 28-31 bits of the register being read. It just so happens that the TX/RX full bits the DCC driver is testing for are high enough in the register to be put into the condition codes. On a v6 processor, this "feature" isn't implemented and thus we have to do the usual read, mask, test operations to check for TX/RX full. Since we already test the RX/TX full bits before calling __dcc_getchar() and __dcc_putchar() we don't actually need to do anything special for v7 over v6. The only difference is in hvc_dcc_get_chars(). We would test RX full, poll RX full, and then read a character from the buffer, whereas now we will test RX full, read a character from the buffer, and then test RX full again for the second iteration of the loop. It doesn't seem possible for the buffer to go from full to empty between testing the RX full and reading a character. Therefore, replace the v7 versions with the v6 versions and everything works the same.

2011-02-03hvc_dcc: Simplify put_chars()/get_chars() loopsStephen Boyd1-8/+4
Casting and anding with 0xff is unnecessary in hvc_dcc_put_chars() since buf is already a char[]. __dcc_get_char() can't return an int less than 0 since it only returns a char. Simplify the if statement in hvc_dcc_get_chars() to take this into account.

2011-02-03hvc_dcc: Fix bad code generation by marking assembly volatileStephen Boyd1-6/+5
Without marking the asm __dcc_getstatus() volatile my compiler decides it can cache the value of __ret in a register and then check the value of it continually in hvc_dcc_put_chars() (I had to replace get_wait/put_wait with 1 and fixup the branch otherwise my disassembler barfed on __dcc_(get|put)char). 00000000 <hvc_dcc_put_chars>: 0: ee103e11 mrc 14, 0, r3, cr0, cr1, {0} 4: e3a0c000 mov ip, #0 ; 0x0 8: e2033202 and r3, r3, #536870912 ; 0x20000000 c: ea000006 b 2c <hvc_dcc_put_chars+0x2c> 10: e3530000 cmp r3, #0 ; 0x0 14: 1afffffd bne 10 <hvc_dcc_put_chars+0x10> 18: e7d1000c ldrb r0, [r1, ip] 1c: ee10fe11 mrc 14, 0, pc, cr0, cr1, {0} 20: 2afffffd bcs 1c <hvc_dcc_put_chars+0x1c> 24: ee000e15 mcr 14, 0, r0, cr0, cr5, {0} 28: e28cc001 add ip, ip, #1 ; 0x1 2c: e15c0002 cmp ip, r2 30: bafffff6 blt 10 <hvc_dcc_put_chars+0x10> 34: e1a00002 mov r0, r2 38: e12fff1e bx lr As you can see, the value of the mrc is checked against DCC_STATUS_TX (bit 29) and then stored in r3 for later use. Marking the asm volatile produces the following: 00000000 <hvc_dcc_put_chars>: 0: e3a03000 mov r3, #0 ; 0x0 4: ea000007 b 28 <hvc_dcc_put_chars+0x28> 8: ee100e11 mrc 14, 0, r0, cr0, cr1, {0} c: e3100202 tst r0, #536870912 ; 0x20000000 10: 1afffffc bne 8 <hvc_dcc_put_chars+0x8> 14: e7d10003 ldrb r0, [r1, r3] 18: ee10fe11 mrc 14, 0, pc, cr0, cr1, {0} 1c: 2afffffd bcs 18 <hvc_dcc_put_chars+0x18> 20: ee000e15 mcr 14, 0, r0, cr0, cr5, {0} 24: e2833001 add r3, r3, #1 ; 0x1 28: e1530002 cmp r3, r2 2c: bafffff5 blt 8 <hvc_dcc_put_chars+0x8> 30: e1a00002 mov r0, r2 34: e12fff1e bx lr which looks better and actually works. Mark all the inline assembly in this file as volatile since we don't want the compiler to optimize away these statements or move them around in any way.

2011-02-03virtio: console: Move file back to drivers/char/Amit Shah2-1839/+0
Commit 728674a7e466628df2aeec6d11a2ae1ef968fb67 moved virtio_console.c to drivers/tty/hvc/ under the perception of this being an hvc driver. It was such once, but these days it has generic communication capabilities as well, so move it to drivers/char/. In the future, the hvc part from this file can be split off and moved under drivers/tty/hvc/.

As requested by Arnd Bergmann, the hvc drivers are now moved to the drivers/tty/hvc/ directory. The virtio_console.c driver was also moved, as it required the hvc_console.h file to be able to be built, and it really is a hvc driver.
