pps: Move timestamp read into PPS code proper

2013-02-13T18:13:58+00:00

The PPS (Pulse-Per-Second) line discipline has developed a number of
unhealthy attachments to core tty data and functions, ultimately leading
to its breakage.

The previous patches fixed the crashing.  This one reduces coupling further
by eliminating the timestamp parameter from the dcd_change ldisc method.
This reduces header file linkage and makes the extension more generic,
and the timestamp read is delayed only slightly, from just before the
ldisc->ops->dcd_change method call to just after.

Fix attendant build breakage in
    drivers/tty/n_tty.c
    drivers/tty/tty_buffer.c
    drivers/staging/speakup/selection.c
    drivers/staging/dgrp/dgrp_*.c

pps: Don't crash the machine when exiting will do

2013-02-13T17:43:07+00:00

PPS is not really the must-have subsystem that warrants crashing
the machine if the ldisc interface is broken.

pps: Use pps_lookup_dev to reduce ldisc coupling

2013-02-13T17:40:35+00:00

Now that N_TTY uses tty->disc_data for its private data,
'subclass' ldiscs cannot use ->disc_data for their own private data.
(This is a regression is v3.8-rc1)

Use pps_lookup_dev to associate the tty with the pps source instead.

This fixes a crashing regression in 3.8-rc1.

pps: timestamp is always passed to dcd_change()

2011-01-13T16:03:20+00:00

Remove the code that gatheres timestamp in pps_tty_dcd_change() in case
passed ts parameter is NULL because it never happens in the current code.
Fix comments as well.

pps: convert printk/pr_* to dev_*

2011-01-13T16:03:19+00:00

Since we now have direct pointers to struct pps_device everywhere it's
easy to use dev_* functions to print messages instead of plain printks.
Where dev_* cannot be used printks are converted to pr_*.

pps: access pps device by direct pointer

2011-01-13T16:03:19+00:00

Using device index as a pointer needs some unnecessary work to be done
every time the pointer is needed (in irq handler for example).  Using a
direct pointer is much more easy (and safe as well).

pps: unify timestamp gathering

2011-01-13T16:03:19+00:00

Add a helper function to gather timestamps.  This way clients don't have
to duplicate it.

pps: serial clients support

2010-03-12T23:52:43+00:00

Adds support, by using the PPS line discipline, for the PPS sources
connected with the CD (Carrier Detect) pin of a serial port.
