serial: core: Preserve termios c_cflag for console resume

2014-09-03T19:31:25+00:00

commit ae84db9661cafc63d179e1d985a2c5b841ff0ac4 upstream.

When a tty is opened for the serial console, the termios c_cflag
settings are inherited from the console line settings.
However, if the tty is subsequently closed, the termios settings
are lost. This results in a garbled console if the console is later
suspended and resumed.

Preserve the termios c_cflag for the serial console when the tty
is shutdown; this reflects the most recent line settings.

serial: report base_baud after initialization

2013-07-26T23:03:05+00:00

Some serial ports will not use the standard base baud rate. Report
this after initialization so it might be discovered and used for early
console configuration.

serial: Move "uart_console" def to core header file.

2013-05-20T18:47:21+00:00

Move "uart_console" definition to serial core header file, so that it can be
used by serial drivers.
Get rid of the uart_console defintion from mpc52xx_uart driver.

Pull VFS updates from Al Viro,

Misc cleanups all over the place, mainly wrt /proc interfaces (switch
create_proc_entry to proc_create(), get rid of the deprecated
create_proc_read_entry() in favor of using proc_create_data() and
seq_file etc).

serial_core.c: add put_device() after device_find_child()

2013-04-15T18:08:12+00:00

The serial core uses device_find_child() but does not drop the reference to
the retrieved child after using it. This patch add the missing put_device().

What I have done to test this issue.

I used a machine with an AMBA PL011 serial driver. I tested the patch on
next-20120408 because the last branch [next-20120415] does not boot on this
board.

For test purpose, I added some pr_info() messages to print the refcount
after device_find_child() (lines: 1937,2009), and after put_device()
(lines: 1947, 2021).

Boot the machine *without* put_device(). Then:

echo reboot > /sys/power/disk
echo disk > /sys/power/state
[   87.058575] uart_suspend_port:1937 refcount 4
[   87.058582] uart_suspend_port:1947 refcount 4
[   87.098083] uart_resume_port:2009refcount 5
[   87.098088] uart_resume_port:2021 refcount 5

echo disk > /sys/power/state
[  103.055574] uart_suspend_port:1937 refcount 6
[  103.055580] uart_suspend_port:1947 refcount 6
[  103.095322] uart_resume_port:2009 refcount 7
[  103.095327] uart_resume_port:2021 refcount 7

echo disk > /sys/power/state
[  252.459580] uart_suspend_port:1937 refcount 8
[  252.459586] uart_suspend_port:1947 refcount 8
[  252.499611] uart_resume_port:2009 refcount 9
[  252.499616] uart_resume_port:2021 refcount 9

The refcount continuously increased.

Boot the machine *with* this patch. Then:

echo reboot > /sys/power/disk
echo disk > /sys/power/state
[  159.333559] uart_suspend_port:1937 refcount 4
[  159.333566] uart_suspend_port:1947 refcount 3
[  159.372751] uart_resume_port:2009 refcount 4
[  159.372755] uart_resume_port:2021 refcount 3

echo disk > /sys/power/state
[  185.713614] uart_suspend_port:1937 refcount 4
[  185.713621] uart_suspend_port:1947 refcount 3
[  185.752935] uart_resume_port:2009 refcount 4
[  185.752940] uart_resume_port:2021 refcount 3

echo disk > /sys/power/state
[  207.458584] uart_suspend_port:1937 refcount 4
[  207.458591] uart_suspend_port:1947 refcount 3
[  207.498598] uart_resume_port:2009 refcount 4
[  207.498605] uart_resume_port:2021 refcount 3

The refcount correctly handled.

procfs: new helper - PDE_DATA(inode)

2013-04-09T18:13:32+00:00

The only part of proc_dir_entry the code outside of fs/proc
really cares about is PDE(inode)->data.  Provide a helper
for that; static inline for now, eventually will be moved
to fs/proc, along with the knowledge of struct proc_dir_entry
layout.

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.

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.

    drivers/tty/n_tty.c
    drivers/tty/tty_buffer.c
    drivers/staging/speakup/selection.c
    drivers/staging/dgrp/dgrp_*.c

drivers/tty/serial: extern function which for release resource, need check pointer, before free it

2013-01-16T07:00:44+00:00

  for extern function uart_remove_one_port:
    need check pointer whether be NULL, before the main work.
    just like what the other extern function uart_add_one_port has done.
    uart_add_one_port and uart_remove_one_port are pair

  information:
    for the callers (such as drivers/tty/serial/jsm: jsm_tty.c, jsm_driver.c)
    they realy assume that:
      they still can call uart_remove_one_port, after uart_add_one_port failed
    we (as an extern function), have to understand it (just like kfree).
