The kernel offers with TIOCL_GETKMSGREDIRECT ioctl() the possibility to
redirect the kernel messages to a specific console.
However, since it's not possible to switch to the kernel message console
after a panic(), it would be nice if the kernel would print the panic
message on the current console.
This patch series adds a new interface to access the global kmsg_redirect
variable by a function to be able to use it in code where
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE is not set (kernel/panic.c).
This patch:
Instead of using and exporting a global value kmsg_redirect, introduce a
function vt_kmsg_redirect() that both can set and return the console where
messages are printed.
Change all users of kmsg_redirect (the VT code itself and kernel/power.c)
to the new interface.
The main advantage is that vt_kmsg_redirect() can also be used when
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE is not set.

Use DECLARE_BITMAP(), find_first_zero_bit(), set_bit() and clear_bit()
instead of rewriting code to do it with the minor number dynamic
allocation bitmap.
We need to invert the bit position to keep the code behaviour of using the
last minor numbers first, since we don't have a find_last_zero_bit.

If there's a failure creating the device (because there's already one with
the same name, for example), the current implementation does not clear the
bit for the allocated minor and that number is lost for future
allocations.
Second, the test currently in misc_deregister is broken, since it does not
test for the 0 minor.

In nvram_write, first of all, correctly handle the case where the file
pointer is already beyond the end; we should return EOF in that case.
Second, make the logic a bit more explicit so that gcc can statically
prove that the copy_from_user() is safe. Once the condition of the
beyond-end filepointer is eliminated, the copy is safe but gcc can't
prove it, causing build failures for i386 allyesconfig.
Third, eliminate the entirely superfluous variable "len", and just use
the passed-in variable "count" instead.

moxa_openlock is used for several situations where we want to handle the
case of an ioctl that crosses many ports (not just the open tty), and also
cases where an open races a deinit (eg a pci unplug) and we hangup a port

The non open race cases can use the moxa_lock spinlock. This simplifies sorting

While Linux provided an O_SYNC flag basically since day 1, it took until
Linux 2.4.0-test12pre2 to actually get it implemented for filesystems,
since that day we had generic_osync_around with only minor changes and the
great "For now, when the user asks for O_SYNC, we'll actually give
O_DSYNC" comment. This patch intends to actually give us real O_SYNC
semantics in addition to the O_DSYNC semantics. After Jan's O_SYNC
patches which are required before this patch it's actually surprisingly
simple, we just need to figure out when to set the datasync flag to
vfs_fsync_range and when not.
This patch renames the existing O_SYNC flag to O_DSYNC while keeping it's
numerical value to keep binary compatibility, and adds a new real O_SYNC
flag. To guarantee backwards compatiblity it is defined as expanding to
both the O_DSYNC and the new additional binary flag (__O_SYNC) to make
sure we are backwards-compatible when compiled against the new headers.
This also means that all places that don't care about the differences can
just check O_DSYNC and get the right behaviour for O_SYNC, too - only
places that actuall care need to check __O_SYNC in addition. Drivers and
network filesystems have been updated in a fail safe way to always do the
full sync magic if O_DSYNC is set. The few places setting O_SYNC for
lower layers are kept that way for now to stay failsafe.
We enforce that O_DSYNC is set when __O_SYNC is set early in the open path
to make sure we always get these sane options.
Note that parisc really screwed up their headers as they already define a
O_DSYNC that has always been a no-op. We try to repair it by using it for
the new O_DSYNC and redefinining O_SYNC to send both the traditional
O_SYNC numerical value _and_ the O_DSYNC one.

Most of the irq_req_t typedef'd struct can be re-worked quite
easily:
(1) IRQInfo2 was unused in any case, so drop it.
(2) IRQInfo1 was used write-only, so drop it.
(3) Instance (private data to be passed to the IRQ handler):
Most PCMCIA drivers using pcmcia_request_irq() to actually
register an IRQ handler set the "dev_id" to the same pointer
as the "priv" pointer in struct pcmcia_device. Modify the two
exceptions (ipwireless, ibmtr_cs) to also work this waym and
set the IRQ handler's "dev_id" to p_dev->priv unconditionally.
(4) Handler is to be of type irq_handler_t.
(5) Handler != NULL already tells whether an IRQ handler is present.
Therefore, we do not need the IRQ_HANDLER_PRESENT flag in
irq_req_t.Attributes.

Also, remove all usages of the CS_CHECK macro and replace them with proper

Some newer Lenovo models are shipped with a TPM that doesn't seem to set the TPM_STS_DATA_EXPECT status bit
when sending it a burst of data, so the code understands it as a failure and doesn't proceed sending the chip
the intended data. In this patch we bypass this bit check in case the itpm module parameter was set.
This patch is based on Andy Isaacson's one:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=124650185023495&w=2
It was heavily discussed how should we deal with identifying the chip in kernel space, but the required
patch to do so was NACK'd:

commit 3ca4f5ca73
virtio: add virtio IDs file
moved all device IDs into a single file. While the change itself is
a very good one, it can break userspace applications. For example
if a userspace tool wanted to get the ID of virtio_net it used to
include virtio_net.h. This does no longer work, since virtio_net.h
does not include virtio_ids.h.
This patch moves all "#include <linux/virtio_ids.h>" from the C
files into the header files, making the header files compatible with
the old ones.
In addition, this patch exports virtio_ids.h to userspace.

struct agp_file_private *priv;
struct agp_client *client;
Call-outs:
kzalloc should be safe to call under the mutex_lock
agp_find_client_by_pid:
- agp_mmap calls that under agp_fe.agp_mutex which we hold in agp_open
- agpioc_reserve_wrap calls it without any locking what-so-ever.
- Is that an error? Or is that okay because it has pid that is
a unique handle?

The generic open callback for the mem class devices is "protected" by
the bkl.
Let's look at the datas manipulated inside memory_open:
- inode and file: safe
- the devlist: safe because it is constant
- the memdev classes inside this array are safe too (constant)
After we find out which memdev file operation we need to use, we call
its open callback. Depending on the targeted memdev, we call either
open_port() that doesn't manipulate any racy data (just a capable()
check), or we call nothing.
So it's safe to remove the big kernel lock there.

A couple of people have hit the WARN_ON() in drivers/char/tty_io.c,
tty_open() that is unhappy about seeing the tty line discipline go away
during the tty hangup. See for example
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14255
and the reason is that we do the tty_ldisc_halt() outside the
ldisc_mutex in order to be able to flush the scheduled work without a
deadlock with vhangup_work.
However, it turns out that we can solve this particular case by
- using "cancel_delayed_work_sync()" in tty_ldisc_halt(), which waits
for just the particular work, rather than synchronizing with any
random outstanding pending work.
This won't deadlock, since the buf.work we synchronize with doesn't
care about the ldisc_mutex, it just flushes the tty ldisc buffers.
- realize that for this particular case, we don't need to wait for any
hangup work, because we are inside the hangup codepaths ourselves.
so as a result we can just drop the flush_scheduled_work() entirely, and
then move the tty_ldisc_halt() call to inside the mutex. That way we
never expose the partially torn down ldisc state to tty_open(), and hold
the ldisc_mutex over the whole sequence.

Check whether index is within bounds before grabbing the element.
Also, since NR_PORTS is defined ARRAY_SIZE(cy_port), cy_port[NR_PORTS] is
out of bounds as well.

David Howells noticed (due to the compiler warning about an unused
'pty_ops_bsd' variable) that we haven't actually been using the code
that implements TIOCSPTLCK for legacy pty handling. It's been that way
since 2.6.26, commit 3e8e88ca05 to be
exact ("pty: prepare for tty->ops changes").
DavidH initially submitted a patch just removing the dead code entirely,
and since nobody has apparently ever complained, I'm not entirely sure
that wouldn't be the right thing to do. But since the whole and only
point of the legacy pty code is to be compatible with legacy distros
that don't use the new unix98 pty model, let's just wire it up again.
And clean it up a bit while we're at it.

The following commit made console open fails while booting:
commit b50989dc44
Author: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com>
Date: Sat Sep 19 13:13:22 2009 -0700
tty: make the kref destructor occur asynchronously
Due to tty release routines run in a workqueue now, error like the
following will be reported while booting:
INIT open /dev/console Input/output error
It also causes hibernation regression to appear as reported at
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14229
The reason is that now there's latency issue with closing, but when
we open a "closing not finished" tty, -EIO will be returned.
Fix it as per the following Alan's suggestion:
Fun but it's actually not a bug and the fix is wrong in itself as
the port may be closing but not yet being destructed, in which case
it seems to do the wrong thing. Opening a tty that is closing (and
could be closing for long periods) is supposed to return -EIO.
I suspect a better way to deal with this and keep the old console
timing is to split tty->shutdown into two functions.
tty->shutdown() - called synchronously just before we dump the tty
onto the waitqueue for destruction
tty->cleanup() - called when the destructor runs.
We would then do the shutdown part which can occur in IRQ context
fine, before queueing the rest of the release (from tty->magic = 0
... the end) to occur asynchronously
The USB update in -next would then need a call like
if (tty->cleanup)
tty->cleanup(tty);
at the top of the async function and the USB shutdown to be split
between shutdown and cleanup as the USB resource cleanup and final
tidy cannot occur synchronously as it needs to sleep.
In other words the logic becomes
final kref put
make object unfindable
async
clean it up
