<id>4f768e94774c58c9f7f54ebd38dadf172970046a</id>
<content type='text'>
Add support for RS-485 multipoint addressing using 9th bit [*]. The
addressing mode is configured through -&gt;rs485_config().

ADDRB in termios indicates 9th bit addressing mode is enabled. In this
mode, 9th bit is used to indicate an address (byte) within the
communication line. ADDRB can only be enabled/disabled through
-&gt;rs485_config() that is also responsible for setting the destination and
receiver (filter) addresses.

Add traps to detect unwanted changes to struct serial_rs485 layout using
static_assert().

[*] Technically, RS485 is just an electronic spec and does not itself
specify the 9th bit addressing mode but 9th bit seems at least
"semi-standard" way to do addressing with RS485.

The only user of 'file' parameter in tty_mode_ioctl is a BUG_ON check.
Provided it never crashed for anyone, it's an overkill to pass the
parameter to tty_mode_ioctl only for this check.

If we wanted to check 'file' there, we should handle it in more graceful
way anyway. Not by a BUG == crash.

<title>tty: make tty_get_{char,frame}_size available</title>

<content type='text'>
Many tty drivers contain code to compute bits count depending on termios
cflags. So extract this code from serial core to two separate tty helper
functions:
* tty_get_char_size -- only size of a character, without flags,
* tty_get_frame_size -- complete size of a frame including flags.

In the next patch, calls to these new functions replace many copies of
this code.

Note that we accept only cflag as a parameter. That's because some
callers like pch_uart_startup or sunsab_console_setup don't have at hand
termios which we could pass around.

<title>tty: cumulate and document tty_struct::flow* members</title>

<id>6e94dbc7a4e49a028b81302d755bba1a518f973b</id>
<content type='text'>
Group the flow flags under a single struct called flow. The new struct
contains 'stopped' and 'tco_stopped' bools which used to be bits in a
bitfield. The struct also contains the lock protecting them to
potentially share the same cache line.

Note that commit c545b66c6922b (tty: Serialize tcflow() with other tty
flow control changes) added a padding to the original bitfield. It was
for the bitfield to occupy a whole 64b word to avoid interferring stores
on Alpha (cannot we evaporate this arch with weird implications to C
code yet?). But it doesn't work as expected as the padding
(tty_struct::unused) is aligned to a 8B boundary too and occupies some
bytes from the next word.

So make it reliable by:
1) setting __aligned of the struct -- that aligns the start, and
2) making 'unsigned long unused[0]' as the last member of the struct --
   pads the end.

This is also the perfect time to start the documentation of tty_struct
where all this lives. So we start by documenting what these bools
actually serve for. And why we do all the alignment dances. Only the few
up-to-date information from the Theodore's comment made it into this new
Kerneldoc comment.

The flow change and restricted_tty_write() logic is internal to the tty
core only, so move it out of the include/linux/tty.h file.
