tty: mxser: drop low-latency workaround

2021-04-22T10:09:24+00:00

Commit 67d2bc58afdd ("Char: mxser_new, fix recursive locking") worked
around the infamous low_latency behaviour of tty_flip_buffer_push() by
simply dropping and reacquiring the port lock in the interrupt handler.

Since commit a9c3f68f3cd8 ("tty: Fix low_latency BUG"),
tty_flip_buffer_push() always schedules a work item to push data to the
line discipline and there's no need to keep any low_latency hacks around.

tty: mxser: fix TIOCSSERIAL permission check

2021-04-07T15:22:07+00:00

Changing the port type and closing_wait parameter are privileged
operations so make sure to return -EPERM if a regular user tries to
change them.

Note that the closing_wait parameter would not actually have been
changed but the return value did not indicate that.

tty: mxser: fix TIOCSSERIAL jiffies conversions

2021-04-07T15:22:07+00:00

The port close_delay and closing wait parameters set by TIOCSSERIAL are
specified in jiffies, while the values returned by TIOCGSERIAL are
specified in centiseconds.

Add the missing conversions so that TIOCSSERIAL works as expected also
when HZ is not 100.

tty_port: drop last traces of low_latency

2021-01-07T15:17:32+00:00

The main purpose of tty_port::low_latency was removed in commit
a9c3f68f3cd8 (tty: Fix low_latency BUG) back in 2014. It was left in
place for drivers as an optional tune knob. But only one driver has been
using it until the previous commit. So remove this misconcept
completely, given there are no users.

tty: mxser: make mxser_change_speed() return void

2020-05-15T12:47:05+00:00

No other functions use the return value of mxser_change_speed() and the
return value is always 0 now. Make it return void. This fixes the
following coccicheck warning:

drivers/tty/mxser.c:645:5-8: Unneeded variable: "ret". Return "0" on

tty: Remove redundant license text

2017-11-08T12:08:12+00:00

Now that the SPDX tag is in all tty files, that identifies the license
in a specific and legally-defined manner.  So the extra GPL text wording
can be removed as it is no longer needed at all.

This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in
the kernel describe the GPL license text.  And there's unneeded stuff
like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never
needed.

No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

tty: add SPDX identifiers to all remaining files in drivers/tty/

2017-11-08T12:08:12+00:00

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.

Update the drivers/tty files files with the correct SPDX license
identifier based on the license text in the file itself.  The SPDX
identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of
the full boiler plate text.

This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe
Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.
