TTY: amiserial, use module_platform_driver_probe()

2013-03-15T20:55:23+00:00

This patch uses module_platform_driver_probe() macro which makes
the code smaller and simpler.

tty: Remove ancient hardpps()

2013-02-13T18:17:06+00:00

hardpps() functionality is provided through the N_PPS line
discipline now. The new function signature was added in commit
025b40ab (2011-01-12). There was no previous macro or
function hardpps(), at least since before the initial commit of
v2.6.12 in 2005. It's unlikely this code has been compiled since.

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: move low_latency to tty_port

2013-01-16T06:23:16+00:00

One point is to have less places where we actually need tty pointer.
The other is that low_latency is bound to buffer processing and
buffers are now in tty_port. So it makes sense to move low_latency to
tty_port too.

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: call tty_port_destroy in the rest of drivers

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.

To be sure, the TTY buffers (and later some stuff) are gone along with
the tty_port, we have to call tty_port_destroy at tear-down places.
This is mostly where the structure containing a tty_port is freed.
This patch does exactly that -- put tty_port_destroy at those places.

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_link_device

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

So now for those drivers that can use neither tty_port_install nor
tty_port_register_driver but still have tty_port available before
tty_register_driver we use newly added tty_port_link_device.

The rest of the drivers that still do not provide tty_struct <->
tty_port link will have to be converted to implement
tty->ops->install.

tty: localise the lock

2012-08-10T19:55:47+00:00

The termios and other changes mean the other protections needed on the driver
tty arrays should be adequate. Turn it all back on.

tty: move the termios object into the tty

2012-07-16T20:00:41+00:00

This will let us sort out a whole pile of tty related races. The
alternative would be to keep points and refcount the termios objects.
However
1. They are tiny anyway
2. Many devices don't use the stored copies
3. We can remove a pty special case
