<content type='text'>
Since at least before 2.6.30, tty drivers that do not drop the tty lock
while closing cannot observe ASYNC_CLOSING set while holding the
tty lock; this includes the tty driver's open() and hangup() methods,
since the tty core calls these methods holding the tty lock.

For these drivers, waiting for ASYNC_CLOSING to clear while opening
is not required, since this condition cannot occur. Similarly, even
when the open() method drops and reacquires the tty lock after
blocking, ASYNC_CLOSING cannot be set (again, for drivers that
do not drop the tty lock while closing).

Now that tty port drivers no longer drop the tty lock while closing
(since 'tty: Remove tty_wait_until_sent_from_close()'), the same
conditions apply: waiting for ASYNC_CLOSING to clear while opening
is not required, nor is re-checking ASYNC_CLOSING after dropping and
reacquiring the tty lock while blocking (eg., in *_block_til_ready()).

Note: The ASYNC_CLOSING flag state is still maintained since several
bitrotting drivers use it for (dubious) other purposes.

<content type='text'>
In case an infinite timeout (0) is requested, the irda wait_until_sent
implementation would use a zero poll timeout rather than the default
200ms.

Note that wait_until_sent is currently never called with a 0-timeout
argument due to a bug in tty_wait_until_sent.

Use helper functions to access current-&gt;state.
Direct assignments are prone to races and therefore buggy.

current-&gt;state = TASK_RUNNING can be replaced by __set_current_state()

<title>tty: Remove tty_hung_up_p() tests from tty drivers' open()</title>

Since at least before 2.6.30, it has not been possible to observe
a hung up file pointer in a tty driver's open() method unless/until
the driver open() releases the tty_lock() (eg., before blocking).

This is because tty_open() adds the file pointer while holding
the tty_lock() _and_ doesn't release the lock until after calling
the tty driver's open() method. [ Before tty_lock(), this was
lock_kernel(). ]

Since __tty_hangup() first waits on the tty_lock() before
enumerating and hanging up the open file pointers, either
__tty_hangup() will wait for the tty_lock() or tty_open() will
not yet have added the file pointer. For example,

CPU 0                          |  CPU 1
                               |
tty_open                       |  __tty_hangup
  ..                           |    ..
  tty_lock                     |    ..
  tty_reopen                   |    tty_lock  / blocks
  ..                           |
  tty_add_file(tty, filp)      |
  ..                           |
  tty-&gt;ops-&gt;open(tty, filp)    |
    tty_port_open              |
      tty_port_block_til_ready |
        ..                     |
        while (1)              |
          ..                   |
          tty_unlock           |    / unblocks
          schedule             |    for each filp on tty-&gt;tty_files
                               |      f_ops = tty_hung_up_fops;
                               |    ..
                               |    tty_unlock
          tty_lock             |
  ..                           |
  tty_unlock                   |

Note that since tty_port_block_til_ready() and similar drop
the tty_lock while blocking, when woken, the file pointer
must then be tested for having been hung up.

Also, fix bit-rotted drivers that used extra_count to track the
port-&gt;count bump.

                               |    tty_unlock
          tty_lock             |
  ..                           |
  tty_unlock                   |

Note that since tty_port_block_til_ready() and similar drop
the tty_lock while blocking, when woken, the file pointer
must then be tested for having been hung up.

Also, fix bit-rotted drivers that used extra_count to track the
port-&gt;count bump.

Several files refer to an old address for the Free Software Foundation
in the file header comment.  Resolve by replacing the address with
the URL &lt;http://www.gnu.org/licenses/&gt; so that we do not have to keep
updating the header comments anytime the address changes.
