linux-stable.git/drivers/tty/serial/serial_core.c, branch v3.7 Linux kernel stable tree tty/serial/core: Introduce poll_init callback 2012-09-26T20:47:02+00:00 Anton Vorontsov anton.vorontsov@linaro.org 2012-09-24T21:27:53+00:00 c7f3e7087ab0abb52bb1286010f2c104fd38ca5c It was noticed that polling drivers (like KGDB) are not able to use serial ports if the ports were not previously initialized via console. I.e. when booting with console=ttyAMA0 kgdboc=ttyAMA0, everything works fine, but with console=ttyFOO kgdboc=ttyAMA0, the kgdboc doesn't work. This is because we don't initialize the hardware. Calling ->startup() is not an option, because drivers request interrupts there, and drivers fail to handle situations when tty isn't opened with interrupts enabled. So, we have to implement a new callback (actually, tty_ops already have a similar callback), which does everything needed to initialize just the hardware.

serial_core: Fix race in uart_handle_dcd_change 2012-09-21T16:51:09+00:00 Alan Cox alan@linux.intel.com 2012-09-19T14:35:46+00:00 43eca0aef73cc6f0d37ad139f1cbb810e62e409d If a serial driver is called post hangup with a second DCD event then we will attempt to get the ldisc of NULL. Check we have a tty before trying to do anything with it. This is still only safe within the uart layer if the caller holds the relevant uart locks. We could do with a version where the tty is passed for more general use. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

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.
