2010-03-25agp/intel: intel_845_driver is an agp driver!Daniel Vetter1-3/+0
... not a GTT driver. So the additional chipset flush introduced in commit 2162e6a2b0cd5acbb9bd8a3c94e1c1269b078295 Author: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com> Date: Wed Nov 21 16:36:31 2007 +1000 agp/intel: Add chipset flushing support for i8xx chipsets. to fix a GTT problem makes absolutely no sense. If this would really be needed for AGP chipsets, too, we should add it to all i8xx agp drivers, not just one.

When the host lets us know what 'name' a port is assigned, we create the sysfs 'name' attribute. Generate a 'change' event after this so that udev wakes up and acts on the rules for virtio-ports (currently there's only one rule that creates a symlink from the 'name' to the actual char device).

2010-03-19tty_port,usb-console: Fix usb serial console open/close regressionJason Wessel1-1/+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.

2010-03-19hvc_console: Fix race between hvc_close and hvc_removeAmit Shah1-10/+21
Alan pointed out a race in the code where hvc_remove is invoked. The recent virtio_console work is the first user of hvc_remove(). Alan describes it thus: The hvc_console assumes that a close and remove call can't occur at the same time. In addition tty_hangup(tty) is problematic as tty_hangup is asynchronous itself.... So this can happen hvc_close hvc_remove hung up ? - no lock tty = hp->tty unlock lock hp->tty = NULL unlock notify del kref_put the hvc struct close completes tty is destroyed tty_hangup dead tty tty->ops will be NULL NULL->... This patch adds some tty krefs and also converts to using tty_vhangup().

2010-03-19Revert "tty: Add a new VT mode which is like VT_PROCESS but doesn't require ↵Greg Kroah-Hartman1-20/+19
a VT_RELDISP ioctl call" This reverts commit eec9fe7d1ab4a0dfac4cb43047a7657fffd0002f. Ari writes as the reason this should be reverted: The problems with this patch include: 1. There's at least one subtlety I overlooked - switching between X servers (i.e. from one X VT to another) still requires the cooperation of both X servers. I was assuming that KMS eliminated this. 2. It hasn't been tested at all (no X server patch exists which uses the new mode). As he was the original author of the patch, I'll revert it.

2010-03-13x86, k8 nb: Fix boot crash: enable k8_northbridges unconditionally on AMD ↵Borislav Petkov1-1/+1
systems de957628ce7c84764ff41331111036b3ae5bad0f changed setting of the x86_init.iommu.iommu_init function ptr only when GART IOMMU is found. One side effect of it is that num_k8_northbridges is not initialized anymore if not explicitly called. This resulted in uninitialized pointers in <arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c:amd_calc_l3_indices()>, for example, which uses the num_k8_northbridges thing through node_to_k8_nb_misc(). Fix that through an initcall that runs right after the PCI subsystem and does all the scanning. Then, remove initialization in gart_iommu_init() which is a rootfs_initcall and we're running before that. What is more, since num_k8_northbridges is being used in other places beside GART IOMMU, include it whenever we add AMD CPU support. The previous dependency chain in kconfig contained K8_NB depends on AGP_AMD64|GART_IOMMU which was clearly incorrect. The more natural way in terms of hardware dependency should be AGP_AMD64|GART_IOMMU depends on K8_NB depends on CPU_SUP_AMD && PCI. Make it so Number One!

The variable x is initialized twice to the same (side effect-free) expression. Drop one initialization. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @forall@ idexpression *x; identifier f!=ERR_PTR; @@ x = f(...) ... when != x ( x = f(...,<+...x...+>,...) | * x = f(...) ) // </smpl> Stefan observed: The next x = rb_entry(mn->next, struct mmtimer, list); is preceded by a test whether mn->next is NULL.

In some cases kipmid can use a lot of CPU. This adds a way to tune the CPU used by kipmid to help in those cases. By setting kipmid_max_busy_us to a value between 100 and 500, it is possible to bring down kipmid CPU load to practically 0 without loosing too much ipmi throughput performance.

2010-03-02tty: Add a new VT mode which is like VT_PROCESS but doesn't require a ↵Ari Entlich1-19/+20
VT_RELDISP ioctl call This new VT mode (VT_PROCESS_AUTO) does everything that VT_PROCESS does except that it doesn't wait for a VT_RELDISP ioctl before switching away from a VT with that mode. If the X server eventually uses this new mode, debugging and crash recovery should become easier. This is because even when currently in the VT of a frozen X server it would still be possible to switch out by doing SysRq-r and then CTRL-<number of a text vt>, sshing in and doing chvt <number of a text vt>, or any other method of VT switching. The general concensus on #xorg-devel seems to be that it should be safe to use this with X now that we have KMS. This also moves the VT_ACKACQ define to a more appropriate place, for clarity's sake.

2010-03-02tty: Fix the ldisc hangup raceAlan Cox1-20/+30
This was noticed by Matthias Urlichs and he proposed a fix. This patch does the fixing a different way to avoid introducing several new race conditions into the code. The problem case is TTY_DRIVER_RESET_TERMIOS = 0. In that case while we abort the ldisc change, the hangup processing has not cleaned up and restarted the ldisc either. We can't restart the ldisc stuff in the set_ldisc as we don't know what the hangup did and may touch stuff we shouldn't as we are no longer supposed to influence the tty at that point in case it has been re-opened before we get rescheduled. Instead do it the simple way. Always re-init the ldisc on the hangup, but use TTY_DRIVER_RESET_TERMIOS to indicate that we should force N_TTY.

2010-03-02nozomi: Fix mutex handlingAlan Cox1-22/+12
The original author didn't realise the kernel lock was a drop while sleep lock so did clever (and wrong) things to work around the non need to avoid deadlocks. Remove the cleverness and the comment (as we don't hold the BKL now anyway in those paths) Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2010-03-02nozomi: Add tty_port usageAlan Cox1-47/+68
The Nozomi tty handling is very broken on the open/close side (See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13024 for one example). In particular it marks the tty as closed on the first close() not on the last. Most of the logic is pretty solid except for the open/close path so switch to the tty_port helpers and let them do all the heavy lifting. This is also fixes all the POSIX behaviour violations in the open/close paths. Begin by adding the tty port usage Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2010-03-02Char: synclink, remove unnecessary checksJiri Slaby1-2/+2
Stanse found a potential null dereference in mgsl_put_char and mgsl_write. There is a check for tty being NULL, but it is dereferenced earlier. Actually, tty cannot be NULL in .write and .put_char, so remove the tests.

2010-03-02ip2: remove #ifdef MODULE from ip2main.cRakib Mullick1-6/+5
On the kernel command line we can pass "module parameters". So #ifdef MODULE is obsolute now. Remove it completely. When CONFIG_PCI=n and building ip2main.c then we are hit by the following warning. So move *pdev into #ifdef CONFIG_PCI. drivers/char/ip2/ip2main.c: In function `ip2_loadmain': drivers/char/ip2/ip2main.c:542: warning: unused variable `pdev' Signed-off-by: Rakib Mullick <rakib.mullick@gmail.com> Acked-by: Michael H.

We can pass "module parameters" on the kernel command line even when !MODULE. So, #ifdef MODULE becomes obsolete.

With gcc 4.0.2: drivers/char/cyclades.c: In function 'cyy_interrupt': drivers/char/cyclades.c:581: warning: 'info' may be used uninitialized in this function introduced by : commit 3aeea5b92210083c7cffd4f08a0bb141d3f2d574 : Author: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@gmail.com> : AuthorDate: Sat Sep 19 13:13:16 2009 -0700 : Commit: Live-CD User <linux@linux.site> : CommitDate: Sat Sep 19 13:13:16 2009 -0700 : : cyclades: introduce cyy_readb/writeb In fact the true branch which uses uninitialized 'info' can never happen because chip is always less than ->nchips and channel is always less than 4 which we alloc. So behave similar to rx handling and remove the test completely. I wonder why gcc 4.4.1 doesn't spit a word.
