TTY: switch tty_flip_buffer_push

2013-01-16T06:30:15+00:00

Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use
tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty in many
call sites. Only tty_port will needed and hence no more
tty_port_tty_get in those paths.

Now, the one where most of tty_port_tty_get gets removed:
tty_flip_buffer_push.

IOW we also closed all the races in drivers not using tty_port_tty_get
at all yet.

Also we move tty_flip_buffer_push declaration from include/linux/tty.h
to include/linux/tty_flip.h to all others while we are changing it
anyway.

TTY: switch tty_insert_flip_char

2013-01-16T06:21:36+00:00

Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use
tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty in many
call sites. Only tty_port will needed and hence no more
tty_port_tty_get in those paths.

tty_insert_flip_char is the next one to proceed. This one is used all
over the code, so the patch is huge.

TTY: convert more flipping functions

2013-01-16T06:17:29+00:00

Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use
tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty pointer in
many call sites. Only tty_port will be needed and hence no more
tty_port_tty_get calls in those paths.

Now 4 string flipping ones are on turn:
* tty_insert_flip_string_flags
* tty_insert_flip_string_fixed_flag
* tty_prepare_flip_string
* tty_prepare_flip_string_flags

tty: remove use of __devexit

2012-11-21T23:27:46+00:00

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option so __devexit is no
longer needed.

TTY: isicom, fix tty buffers memory leak

2012-11-16T01:20:58+00:00

After commit "TTY: move tty buffers to tty_port", the tty buffers are
not freed in some drivers. This is because tty_port_destructor is not
called whenever a tty_port is freed. This was an assumption I counted
with but was unfortunately untrue. So fix the drivers to fulfil this
assumption.

This one is special as we need more work to be done. Previously,
the tty_port was initialized at module load time, but to be able to
destroy the port and init it again, we now do the initialization in
probe and destroy in remove. I.e. at more appropriate places for that.

TTY: isicom, stop using port->tty

2012-11-16T01:18:55+00:00

Do not access unsafe port->tty pointer when we have a safe tty
already. Use the safe one.

serial: add a new helper function

2012-09-05T20:28:35+00:00

In most of the time, the driver needs to check if the cts flow control
is enabled. But now, the driver checks the ASYNC_CTS_FLOW flag manually,
which is not a grace way. So add a new wraper function to make the code
tidy and clean.

TTY: use tty_port_register_device

2012-08-13T23:50:19+00:00

Currently we have no way to assign tty->port while performing tty
installation. There are two ways to provide the link tty_struct =>
tty_port. Either by calling tty_port_install from tty->ops->install or
tty_port_register_device called instead of tty_register_device when
the device is being set up after connected.

In this patch we modify most of the drivers to do the latter. When the
drivers use tty_register_device and we have tty_port already, we
switch to tty_port_register_device. So we have the tty_struct =>
tty_port link for free for those.
