d843fc6e9d hsu: driver for Medfield High Speed UART device
This is a PCI & UART driver, which suppors both PIO and DMA mode
UART operation. It has 3 identical UART ports and one internal
DMA controller.

Current FW will export 4 pci devices for hsu: 3 uart ports and 1
dma controller, each has one IRQ line. And we need to discuss the
device model, one PCI device covering whole HSU should be a better
model, but there is a problem of how to export the 4 IRQs info

Current driver set the highest baud rate to 2746800bps, which is
easy to scale down to 115200/230400.... To suport higher baud rate,
we need add special process, change DLAB/DLH/PS/DIV/MUL registers
all together.

921600 is the highest baud rate that has been tested with Bluetooth
modem connected to HSU port 0. Will test more when there is right
BT firmware.

Current version contains several work around for A0's Silicon bugs

0ac8382e9c serial: mcf: don't take spinlocks in already protected functions
Don't take the port spinlock in uart functions where the serial core
already takes care of locking/unlocking them.

The code would actually lock up on architectures where spinlocks are

Also protect calling mcf_rx_chars/mcf_tx_chars in the interrupt handler by
the port spinlock and use IRQ_RETVAL to return from isr.

1b6331848b serial: general fixes in the serial_rs485 structure
Fix several issues related to the RS485 interface:

 - It adds the flag SER_RS485_RTS_BEFORE_SEND that was missing from the
   serial_rs485 structure (even if "delay_rts_before_send" was existing)

 - It adds a further "delay_rts_after_send" field for those drivers that
   can have a delay after send (e.g., atmel_serial)

 - It fixes the usage of the structure in the atmel_serial driver (where
   "delay_rts_before_send" should be used instead of "delay_rts_after_send").

11dbf20392 tty: avoid recursive BTM in pty_close
When the console has been redirected, a hangup of the tty
will cause tty_release to be called under the big tty_mutex,
which leads to a deadlock because hangup is also called
under the BTM.

This moves the BTM deeper into the tty_hangup function so
we can close the redirected tty without holding the BTM.
In case of pty, we now need to drop the BTM before
calling tty_vhangup.

b07471fa51 tty: implement BTM as mutex instead of BKL
The tty locking now follows the rules for mutexes, so
we can replace the BKL usage with a new subsystem
wide mutex.

Using a regular mutex here will change the behaviour
when blocked on the BTM from spinning to sleeping,
but that should not be visible to the user.

Using the mutex also means that all the BTM is now
covered by lockdep.

2036521926 tty: untangle locking of wait_until_sent
Some wait_until_sent versions require the big
tty mutex, others don't and some callers of
wait_until_sent already hold it while other don't.
That leads to recursive use of the BTM in these
functions, which we're trying to get rid of.

This turns all cleans up the locking there so
that the driver's wait_until_sent function
never takes the BTM itself if it is already
called with that lock held.

60af22d2ed tty: reorder ldisc locking
We need to release the BTM in paste_selection() when
sleeping in tty_ldisc_ref_wait to avoid deadlocks
with tty_ldisc_enable.

In tty_set_ldisc, we now always grab the BTM before
taking the ldisc_mutex in order to avoid AB-BA
deadlocks between the two.

tty_ldisc_halt potentially blocks on a workqueue
function that takes the BTM, so we must release
the BTM before calling it.

3f582b8c11 serial: fix termios settings in open
Move termios initialization in open into uart_dtr_rts to make sure
it always gets called when necessary. Based on a suggestion from
Alan Cox.

Alan writes:
Ok this sort of makes sense. Something isn't getting initialised and both
getty and minicom will do a termios set which is sorting it out.
This is occurring because the generic block_til_ready sets
ASYNCB_NORMAL_ACTIVE so the termios updating gets skipped.

This patch should cure it and then we can think about doing it more
elegantly by getting the serial layer to use tty_port_open, kfifo and
the like and removing the tons of repeated crap in all the drivers.

and will also lock set versus open (a locking property that has been lost
somewhere along the way)

b4eda9cb48 stallion: prune lock_kernel calls
Remove unneeded tty layer lock kernel bits. Relock the needed bits using the
port mutex. The istallion still has brd state races but those are not new
or introduced by the removal of the lock_kernel logic.

8fd4bd2235 vt/console: try harder to print output when panicing
Jesse's initial patch commit said:

"At panic time (i.e.  when oops_in_progress is set) we should try a bit
harder to update the screen and make sure output gets to the VT, since
some drivers are capable of flipping back to it.

So make sure we try to unblank and update the display if called from a
panic context."

I've enhanced this to add a flag to the vc that console layer can set to
indicate they want this behaviour to occur.  This also adds support to
fbcon for that flag and adds an fb flag for drivers to indicate they want
to use the support.  It enables this for KMS drivers.

26df6d1340 tty: Add EXTPROC support for LINEMODE
This patch is against the 2.6.34 source.

Paraphrased from the 1989 BSD patch by David Borman @ cray.com:

     These are the changes needed for the kernel to support
     LINEMODE in the server.

     There is a new bit in the termios local flag word, EXTPROC.
     When this bit is set, several aspects of the terminal driver
     are disabled.  Input line editing, character echo, and mapping
     of signals are all disabled.  This allows the telnetd to turn
     off these functions when in linemode, but still keep track of
     what state the user wants the terminal to be in.

     New ioctl:
         TIOCSIG         Generate a signal to processes in the
                         current process group of the pty.

     There is a new mode for packet driver, the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit.
     When packet mode is turned on in the pty, and the EXTPROC bit
     is set, then whenever the state of the pty is changed, the
     next read on the master side of the pty will have the TIOCPKT_IOCTL
     bit set.  This allows the process on the server side of the pty
     to know when the state of the terminal has changed; it can then
     issue the appropriate ioctl to retrieve the new state.

Since the original BSD patches accompanied the source code for telnet
I've left that reference here, but obviously the feature is useful for
any remote terminal protocol, including ssh.

The corresponding feature has existed in the BSD tty driver since 1989.
For historical reference, a good copy of the relevant files can be found
here:

d6e679b474 serial: fix wakup races in the mrst_max3110 driver
The mrst_max3110 driver had a set of unsafe wakeup sequences
along the following line:

if (!atomic_read(&foo)) {
  atomic_set(&foo, 1);
  wake_up(worker_thread);
}
and the worker thread would do

if (atomic_read(&foo)) {
  do_work();
  atomic_set(&foo, 0);
}

which can result in various missed wakups due to test-then-set races,
as well as due to clear-after-work instead of clear-before-work.

This patch fixes these races by using the proper bit test-and-set operations,
and by doing clear-before-work.
