8d233558cd vt: remove power stuff from kernel/power
In the past someone gratuitiously borrowed chunks of kernel internal vt
code and dumped them in kernel/power. They have all sorts of deep relations
with the vt code so put them in the vt tree instead

8b92e87d39 vt: add an event interface
This is needed and requested in various forms for ConsoleKit, screenblank
handling and the like so do the job with a single interface. Also build the
interface so that unlike VT_WAITACTIVE and friends it won't miss events.

FIXME: Should this be a waitactive ioctl or a new device file you can poll
and read events from. We need the code anyway to fix up the existing broken
wait for console switch logic but the ConsoleKit people would prefer the
new device to the ioctl we have here

7ca0ff9ab3 tty: Add a full port_close function
Now we are extracting out methods for shutdown and the like we can add a
proper tty_port_close method that knows all the innards of the tty closing
process and hides the lot from the caller.

At some point in the future this will be paired with a similar open()
helper and the drivers can stick to hardware management.

4d7682005c cyclades: use dtr_rts helpers
For Z cards, use tty helpers for dtr_rts.

If we did the same for Y cards, it will cause a deadlock, because
cyy_dtr_rts takes a lock which we already hold.

Instead, we introduce a Y helper expecting card lock to be held.
It may then be called with set/clear masks from other places.

Use new tty helpers for close, which allows much code removal.

The only real change is locking. card_lock for protecting was
used inappropriately (just to have a critical section, no matter
which lock is used), so the change to port->lock is fine.

Remove also useless debug printks while being there.

d13549f804 cyclades: add tty refcounting
While this is not problem for Y card handlers (they are protected
by card_lock), Z handlers and other functions may dereference NULL
at any point after hangup/close. Even if (tty == NULL) was already
performed in the handler.

Note that it's not an issue for Y cards just for now. After
switching to tty_port_close_* et al. this will be a problem. So
add refcounting to them all.

Also proc .show doesn't take a tty reference and it should (along
with a ldisc one).

While at it and changing prototypes (adding tty param), prepend
cy_ to functions which don't have it yet.

182274f85f tty-ldisc: get rid of tty_ldisc_try_get() helper function
Now that the /proc/tty/ldiscs handling doesn't play games with 'struct
ldisc' any more, the only remaining user of 'tty_ldisc_try_get()' is
'tty_ldisc_get()' (note the lack of 'try').

And we're actually much better off folding the logic directly into that
file, since the 'try' part was always about trying to get the ldisc
operations, not the ldisc itself: and making that explicit inside of
'tty_ldisc_get()' clarifies the whole semantics.

f0de0e8d35 tty-ldisc: make /proc/tty/ldiscs use ldisc_ops instead of ldiscs
The /proc/tty/ldiscs file is totally and utterly un-interested in the
"struct tty_ldisc" structures, and only cares about the underlying ldisc
operations.

So don't make it create a dummy 'struct ldisc' only to get a pointer to
the operations, and then destroy it.  Instead, we split up the function
'tty_ldisc_try_get()', and create a 'get_ldops()' helper that just looks
up the ldisc operations based on the ldisc number.

That makes the code simpler to read (smaller and more well-defined
helper functions), and allows the /proc functions to avoid creating that
useless dummy only to immediately free it again.

e454cea20b Driver-Core: extend devnode callbacks to provide permissions
This allows subsytems to provide devtmpfs with non-default permissions
for the device node. Instead of the default mode of 0600, null, zero,
random, urandom, full, tty, ptmx now have a mode of 0666, which allows
non-privileged processes to access standard device nodes in case no
other userspace process applies the expected permissions.

This also fixes a wrong assignment in pktcdvd and a checkpatch.pl complain.

202c4675c5 pty_write: don't do a tty_wakeup() when the buffers are full
Commit ac89a9174 ("pty: don't limit the writes to 'pty_space()' inside
'pty_write()'") removed the pty_space() checking, in order to let the
regular tty buffer code limit the buffering itself.

That was all good, but as a subtle side effect it meant that we'd be
doing a tty_wakeup() even in the case where the buffers were all filled
up, and didn't actually make any progress on the write.

Which sounds innocuous, but it interacts very badly with the ppp_async
code, which has an infinite loop in ppp_async_push() that tries to push
out data to the tty.  When we call tty_wakeup(), that loop ends up
thinking that progress was made (see the subtle interactions between
XMIT_WAKEUP and 'tty_stuffed' for details).  End result: one unhappy ppp
user.

Fixed by noticing when tty_insert_flip_string() didn't actually do
anything, and then not doing any more processing (including, very much
not calling tty_wakeup()).

09d3f3f0e0 sparc: Kill PROM console driver.
Many years ago when this driver was written, it had a use, but these
days it's nothing but trouble and distributions should not enable it
in any situation.

Pretty much every console device a sparc machine could see has a
bonafide real driver, making the PROM console hack unnecessary.

If any new device shows up, we should write a driver instead of
depending upon this crutch to save us.  We've been able to take care
of this even when no chip documentation exists (sunxvr500, sunxvr2500)
so there are no excuses.

e517a5e970 agp/intel: Fix the pre-9xx chipset flush.
Ever since we enabled GEM, the pre-9xx chipsets (particularly 865) have had
serious stability issues.  Back in May a wbinvd was added to the DRM to
work around much of the problem.  Some failure remained -- easily visible
by dragging a window around on an X -retro desktop, or by looking at bugzilla.

The chipset flush was on the right track -- hitting the right amount of
memory, and it appears to be the only way to flush on these chipsets, but the
flush page was mapped uncached.  As a result, the writes trying to clear the
writeback cache ended up bypassing the cache, and not flushing anything!  The
wbinvd would flush out other writeback data and often cause the data we wanted
to get flushed, but not always.  By removing the setting of the page to UC
and instead just clflushing the data we write to try to flush it, we get the
desired behavior with no wbinvd.

This exports clflush_cache_range(), which was laying around and happened to
basically match the code I was otherwise going to copy from the DRM.

uses timeout_a, which wasn't being initalized until after
request_locality. This results in request_locality falsely timing
out if the chip is still starting. Move the initialization to before
request_locality.

This probably only matters for embedded cases (ie mine), a BIOS likely

ac89a9174d pty: don't limit the writes to 'pty_space()' inside 'pty_write()'
The whole write-room thing is something that is up to the _caller_ to
worry about, not the pty layer itself.  The total buffer space will
still be limited by the buffering routines themselves, so there is no
advantage or need in having pty_write() artificially limit the size
somehow.

And what happened was that the caller (the n_tty line discipline, in
this case) may have verified that there is room for 2 bytes to be
written (for NL -> CRNL expansion), and it used to then do those writes
as two single-byte writes.  And if the first byte written (CR) then
caused a new tty buffer to be allocated, pty_space() may have returned
zero when trying to write the second byte (LF), and then incorrectly
failed the write - leading to a lost newline character.

This should finally fix

37f81fa1f6 n_tty: do O_ONLCR translation as a single write
When translating CR to CRNL in the n_tty line discipline, we did it as
two tty_put_char() calls.  Which works, but is stupid, and has caused
problems before too with bad interactions with the write_room() logic.
The generic USB serial driver had that problem, for example.

Now the pty layer had similar issues after being moved to the generic
tty buffering code (in commit d945cb9cce:
"pty: Rework the pty layer to use the normal buffering logic").

So stop doing the silly separate two writes, and do it as a single write
instead.  That's what the n_tty layer already does for the space
expansion of tabs (XTABS), and it means that we'll now always have just
a single write for the CRNL to match the single 'tty_write_room()' test,
which hopefully means that the next time somebody screws up buffering,
it won't cause weeks of debugging.

5c58ceff10 tty: make sure to flush any pending work when halting the ldisc
When I rewrote tty ldisc code to use proper reference counts (commits
65b770468e and cbe9352fa0) in order to avoid a race with hangup, the
test-program that Eric Biederman used to trigger the original problem
seems to have exposed another long-standing bug: the hangup code did the
'tty_ldisc_halt()' to stop any buffer flushing activity, but unlike the
other call sites it never actually flushed any pending work.

As a result, if you get just the right timing, the pending work may be
just about to execute (ie the timer has already triggered and thus
cancel_delayed_work() was a no-op), when we then re-initialize the ldisc
from under it.

That, in turn, results in various random problems, usually seen as a
NULL pointer dereference in run_timer_softirq() or a BUG() in
worker_thread (but it can be almost anything).

Fix it by adding the required 'flush_scheduled_work()' after doing the
tty_ldisc_halt() (this also requires us to move the ldisc halt to before
taking the ldisc mutex in order to avoid a deadlock with the workqueue
executing do_tty_hangup, which requires the mutex).

The locking should be cleaned up one day (the requirement to do this
outside the ldisc_mutex is very annoying, and weakens the lock), but
that's a larger and separate undertaking.

Using the radeon KMS test functionality, I verified that the AGP bridge of the
Intrepid2 chipset in my PowerBook supports aperture sizes up to 256M. So allow
aperture sizes up to 256M on pre-U3 bridges as well, and bump the default size
to 256M. It's possible that older revisions only support smaller sizes, but
it'll be easy to verify that with the raden KMS test functionality. Also,
there's only a problem on an actual attempt to access the aperture beyond the
maximum size supported by the hardware, and non-KMS X still defaults to using
only 32M.

Also use ARRAY_SIZE for the aperture size arrays.

85dfd81dc5 pty: fix data loss when stopped (^S/^Q)
Commit d945cb9cc ("pty: Rework the pty layer to use the normal buffering
logic") dropped the test for 'tty->stopped' in pty_write_room(), which
then causes the n_tty line discipline thing to not throttle the data
properly when the tty is stopped.

So instead of pausing the write due to the tty being stopped, the ldisc
layer would go ahead and push it down to the pty.  The pty write()
routine would then refuse to take the data (because it _did_ check
'stopped'), and the data wouldn't actually be written.

This whole stopped test should eventually be moved into the tty ldisc
layer rather than have low-level tty drivers care about these things,
but right now the fix is to just re-instate the missing pty 'stopped'
handling.

65b770468e tty-ldisc: turn ldisc user count into a proper refcount
By using the user count for the actual lifetime rules, we can get rid of
the silly "wait_for_idle" logic, because any busy ldisc will
automatically stay around until the last user releases it.  This avoids
a host of odd issues, and simplifies the code.

So now, when the last ldisc reference is dropped, we just release the
ldisc operations struct reference, and free the ldisc.

It looks obvious enough, and it does work for me, but the counting
_could_ be off. It probably isn't (bad counting in the new version would
generally imply that the old code did something really bad, like free an
ldisc with a non-zero count), but it does need some testing, and
preferably somebody looking at it.

With this change, both 'tty_ldisc_put()' and 'tty_ldisc_deref()' are
just aliases for the new ref-counting 'put_ldisc()'. Both of them
decrement the ldisc user count and free it if it goes down to zero.
They're identical functions, in other words.

But the reason they still exist as sepate functions is that one of them
was exported (tty_ldisc_deref) and had a stupid name (so I don't want to
use it as the main name), and the other one was used in multiple places
(and I didn't want to make the patch larger just to rename the users).

In addition to the refcounting, I did do some minimal cleanup. For
example, now "tty_ldisc_try()" actually returns the ldisc it got under
the lock, rather than returning true/false and then the caller would
look up the ldisc again (now without the protection of the lock).

That said, there's tons of dubious use of 'tty->ldisc' without obviously
proper locking or refcounting left. I expressly did _not_ want to try to
fix it all, keeping the patch minimal. There may or may not be bugs in
that kind of code, but they wouldn't be _new_ bugs.

That said, even if the bugs aren't new, the timing and lifetime will
change. For example, some silly code may depend on the 'tty->ldisc'
pointer not changing because they hold a refcount on the 'ldisc'. And
that's no longer true - if you hold a ref on the ldisc, the 'ldisc'
itself is safe, but tty->ldisc may change.

So the proper locking (remains) to hold tty->ldisc_mutex if you expect
tty->ldisc to be stable. That's not really a _new_ rule, but it's an
example of something that the old code might have unintentionally
depended on and hidden bugs.

Whatever. The patch _looks_ sensible to me. The only users of
ldisc->users are:
 - get_ldisc() - atomically increment the count

 - put_ldisc() - atomically decrements the count and releases if zero

 - tty_ldisc_try_get() - creates the ldisc, and sets the count to 1.
   The ldisc should then either be released, or be attached to a tty.

18eac1cc10 tty-ldisc: make refcount be atomic_t 'users' count
This is pure preparation of changing the ldisc reference counting to be
a true refcount that defines the lifetime of the ldisc.  But this is a
purely syntactic change for now to make the next steps easier.

This patch should make no semantic changes at all. But I wanted to make
the ldisc refcount be an atomic (I will be touching it without locks
soon enough), and I wanted to rename it so that there isn't quite as
much confusion between 'ldo->refcount' (ldisk operations refcount) and
'ld->refcount' (ldisc refcount itself) in the same file.

So it's now an atomic 'ld->users' count. It still starts at zero,
despite having a reference from 'tty->ldisc', but that will change once
we turn it into a _real_ refcount.

47cab6a722 debug lockups: Improve lockup detection, fix generic arch fallback
As Andrew noted, my previous patch ("debug lockups: Improve lockup
detection") broke/removed SysRq-L support from architecture that do
not provide a __trigger_all_cpu_backtrace implementation.

Restore a fallback path and clean up the SysRq-L machinery a bit:

 - Rename the arch method to arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace()

 - Simplify the define

 - Document the method a bit - in the hope of more architectures
   adding support for it.

[ The patch touches Sparc code for the rename. ]

c1dc0b9c0c debug lockups: Improve lockup detection
When debugging a recent lockup bug i found various deficiencies
in how our current lockup detection helpers work:

 - SysRq-L is not very efficient as it uses a workqueue, hence
   it cannot punch through hard lockups and cannot see through
   most soft lockups either.

 - The SysRq-L code depends on the NMI watchdog - which is off
   by default.

 - We dont print backtraces from the RCU code's built-in
   'RCU state machine is stuck' debug code. This debug
   code tends to be one of the first (and only) mechanisms
   that show that a lockup has occured.

This patch changes the code so taht we:

 - Trigger the NMI backtrace code from SysRq-L instead of using
   a workqueue (which cannot punch through hard lockups)

 - Trigger print-all-CPU-backtraces from the RCU lockup detection
   code

Also decouple the backtrace printing code from the NMI watchdog:

 - Dont use variable size cpumasks (it might not be initialized
   and they are a bit more fragile anyway)

 - Trigger an NMI immediately via an IPI, instead of waiting
   for the NMI tick to occur. This is a lot faster and can
   produce more relevant backtraces. It will also work if the
   NMI watchdog is disabled.

 - Dont print the 'dazed and confused' message when we print
   a backtrace from the NMI

 - Do a show_regs() plus a dump_stack() to get maximum info
   out of the dump. Worst-case we get two stacktraces - which
   is not a big deal. Sometimes, if register content is
   corrupted, the precise stack walker in show_regs() wont
   give us a full backtrace - in this case dump_stack() will
   do it.

cab8bd3410 sysrq, kdump: make sysrq-c consistent
commit d6580a9f15 ("kexec: sysrq: simplify
sysrq-c handler") changed the behavior of sysrq-c to unconditional
dereference of NULL pointer.  So in cases with CONFIG_KEXEC, where
crash_kexec() was directly called from sysrq-c before, now it can be said
that a step of "real oops" was inserted before starting kdump.

However, in contrast to oops via SysRq-c from keyboard which results in
panic due to in_interrupt(), oops via "echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger" will
not become panic unless panic_on_oops=1.  It means that even if dump is
properly configured to be taken on panic, the sysrq-c from proc interface
might not start crashdump while the sysrq-c from keyboard can start
crashdump.  This confuses traditional users of kdump, i.e.  people who
expect sysrq-c to do common behavior in both of the keyboard and proc
interface.

This patch brings the keyboard and proc interface behavior of sysrq-c in
line, by forcing panic_on_oops=1 before oops in sysrq-c handler.

And some updates in documentation are included, to clarify that there is
no longer dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC, and that now the system can just
crash by sysrq-c if no dump mechanism is configured.

e043e42bdb pty: avoid forcing 'low_latency' tty flag
We really don't want to mark the pty as a low-latency device, because as
Alan points out, the ->write method can be called from an IRQ (ppp?),
and that means we can't use ->low_latency=1 as we take mutexes in the
low_latency case.

So rather than using low_latency to force the written data to be pushed
to the ldisc handling at 'write()' time, just make the reader side (or
the poll function) do the flush when it checks whether there is data to
be had.

This also fixes the problem with lost data in an emacs compile buffer
(bugzilla 13815), and we can thus revert the low_latency pty hack
(commit 3a54297478: "pty: quickfix for the
pty ENXIO timing problems").

If spin_lock_irqsave is called twice in a row with the same second

the value saved by the first call.  Indeed, the second call does not
need to save the interrupt state, so it is changed to a simple
spin_lock.

8077088449 n_tty: Fix echo race
If a tty in N_TTY mode with echo enabled manages to get itself into a state
where
	- echo characters are pending
	- FASYNC is enabled
	- tty_write_wakeup is called from either
		- a device write path (pty)
		- an IRQ (serial)

then it either deadlocks or explodes taking a mutex in the IRQ path.

On the serial side it is almost impossible to reproduce because you have to
go from a full serial port to a near empty one with echo characters
pending. The pty case happens to have become possible to trigger using
emacs and ptys, the pty changes having created a scenario which shows up
this bug.

The code path is

	n_tty:process_echoes() (takes mutex)
	tty_io:tty_put_char()
	pty:pty_write  (or serial paths)
	tty_wakeup     (from pty_write or serial IRQ)
	n_tty_write_wakeup()
	process_echoes()
