2009-06-11tty: rewrite the ldisc lockingAlan Cox
There are several pretty much unfixable races in the old ldisc code, especially with respect to pty behaviour and also to hangup. It's easier to rewrite the code than simply try and patch it up. This patch - splits the ldisc from the tty (so we will be able to refcount it more cleanly later) - introduces a mutex lock for ldisc changing on an active device - fixes the complete mess that hangup caused - implements hopefully correct setldisc/close/hangup locking There are still some problems around pty pairs that have always been there but at least it is now possible to understand the code and fix further problems. This fixes the following known bugs - hang up can leak ldisc references - hang up may not call open/close on ldisc in a matched way - pty/tty pairs can deadlock during an ldisc change - reading the ldisc proc files can cause every ldisc to be loaded and probably a few other of the mysterious ldisc race reports. I'm sure it also adds the odd new one. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-07-20tty: Ldisc revampAlan Cox
Move the line disciplines towards a conventional ->ops arrangement. For the moment the actual 'tty_ldisc' struct in the tty is kept as part of the tty struct but this can then be changed if it turns out that when it all settles down we want to refcount ldiscs separately to the tty. Pull the ldisc code out of /proc and put it with our ldisc code. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-04-30Char: ip2, macros cleanupJiri Slaby
- remove i2os.h -- there was only macro to macro renaming or useless stuff - remove another uselless stuf (NULLFUNC, NULLPTR, YES, NO) - use outb/inb directly - use locking functions directly - don't define another ROUNDUP, use roundup(x, 2) instead - some comments and whitespace cleanup - remove some commented crap - prepend the rest by I2 prefix to not collide with rest of the world like in following output (pointed out by akpm) In file included from drivers/char/ip2/ip2main.c:128: drivers/char/ip2/i2ellis.h:608:1: warning: "COMPLETE" redefined In file included from include/net/netns/ipv4.h:8, from include/net/net_namespace.h:13, from include/linux/seq_file.h:7, from include/asm/machdep.h:12, from include/asm/pci.h:17, from include/linux/pci.h:951, from drivers/char/ip2/ip2main.c:95: include/net/inet_frag.h:28:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2007-02-21Fix bogus 'inline' in drivers/char/ip2/i2lib.cLinus Torvalds
Not only was the function way too big to be inlined in the first place, it was used before it was even defined. Noted-by: Faik Uygur <faik@pardus.org.tr> Cc: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2007-02-12[PATCH] Char: timers cleanupJiri Slaby
- Use timer macros to set function and data members and to modify expiration time. - Use DEFINE_TIMER for global timers and do not init them at run-time in these cases. - del_timer_sync is common in most cases -- we want to wait for timer function if it's still running.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
