2010-11-05TTY: move .gitignore from drivers/char/ to drivers/tty/vt/Greg Kroah-Hartman
The autogenerated files (consolemap_deftbl.c and defkeymap.c) need to be ignored by git, so move the .gitignore file that was doing it to the properly location now that the files have moved as well.

2010-10-30audit: Call tty_audit_push_task() outside preempt disabledThomas Gleixner
While auditing all tasklist_lock read_lock sites I stumbled over the following call chain: audit_prepare_user_tty() read_lock(&tasklist_lock); tty_audit_push_task(); mutex_lock(&buf->mutex); --> buf->mutex is locked with preemption disabled. Solve this by acquiring a reference to the task struct under rcu_read_lock and call tty_audit_push_task outside of the preempt disabled region. Move all code which needs to be protected by sighand lock into tty_audit_push_task() and use lock/unlock_sighand as we do not hold tasklist_lock.

2010-10-27synclink_gt: fix per device lockingPaul Fulghum
Fix a long standing bug with per device locking. Each device has an associated spinlock for synchronizing access to hardware and state information with the ISR. A single hardware card has one or more devices. Bug: Non ISR code correctly acquires and releases the per device lock. ISR incorrectly always acquires and releases the lock of the first device on the card. The decoupled and list based nature of the ISR and deferred processing interaction allowed this to work in normal operation. Exceptional events like an application forcing hardware shutdown, reset, or reconfiguration while active can trigger the bug. Fixed ISR to acquire and release the per device lock. One exception is manipulation of the GPIO card resource which is global and effectively owned by the first device of the card. Non-ISR access to GPIO resource is changed to use lock of first device on card.

If another interrupt arrives before the timer has been correctly programmed (due to some other device on the same interrupt line, or CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ), this results in an extra unwanted interrupt event because the status bit is likely to be set from comparator matches that happened before the device was opened. Therefore, we have to ensure that the interrupt status bit is and stays cleared until we actually program the timer.

2010-10-26hpet: unmap unused I/O spaceJiri Slaby
When the initialization code in hpet finds a memory resource and does not find an IRQ, it does not unmap the memory resource previously mapped. There are buggy BIOSes which report resources exactly like this and what is worse the memory region bases point to normal RAM. This normally would not matter since the space is not touched. But when PAT is turned on, ioremap causes the page to be uncached and sets this bit in page->flags. Then when the page is about to be used by the allocator, it is reported as: BUG: Bad page state in process md5sum pfn:3ed00 page:ffffea0000dbd800 count:0 mapcount:0 mapping:(null) index:0x0 page flags: 0x20000001000000(uncached) Pid: 7956, comm: md5sum Not tainted 2.6.34-12-desktop #1 Call Trace: [<ffffffff810df851>] bad_page+0xb1/0x100 [<ffffffff810dfa45>] prep_new_page+0x1a5/0x1c0 [<ffffffff810dfe01>] get_page_from_freelist+0x3a1/0x640 [<ffffffff810e01af>] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x10f/0x6b0 ... In this particular case: 1) HPET returns 3ed00000 as memory region base, but it is not in reserved ranges reported by the BIOS (excerpt): BIOS-e820: 0000000000100000 - 00000000af6cf000 (usable) BIOS-e820: 00000000af6cf000 - 00000000afdcf000 (reserved) 2) there is no IRQ resource reported by HPET method. On the other hand, the Intel HPET specs (1.0a) says (3.2.5.1): _CRS ( // Report 1K of memory consumed by this Timer Block memory range consumed // Optional: only used if BIOS allocates Interrupts [1] IRQs consumed ) [1] For case where Timer Block is configured to consume IRQ0/IRQ8 AND Legacy 8254/Legacy RTC hardware still exists, the device objects associated with 8254 & RTC devices should not report IRQ0/IRQ8 as "consumed resources". So in theory we should check whether if it is the case and use those interrupts instead. Anyway the address reported by the BIOS here is bogus, so non-presence of IRQ doesn't mean the "optional" part in point 2). Since I got no reply previously, fix this by simply unmapping the space when IRQ is not found and memory region was mapped previously. It would be probably more safe to walk the resources again and unmap appropriately depending on type. But as we now use only ioremap for both 2 memory resource types, it is not necessarily needed right now.

2010-10-25vfs: introduce FMODE_UNSIGNED_OFFSET for allowing negative f_posKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
Now, rw_verify_area() checsk f_pos is negative or not. And if negative, returns -EINVAL. But, some special files as /dev/(k)mem and /proc/<pid>/mem etc.. has negative offsets. And we can't do any access via read/write to the file(device). So introduce FMODE_UNSIGNED_OFFSET to allow negative file offsets.

2010-10-22vcs: invoke the vt update callback when /dev/vcs* is written toNicolas Pitre
A notifier chain is called whenever the vt code modifies a terminal content, except for one case which is when the modification comes through writes to /dev/vcs* devices. Let's add the missing notifier invocation at the end of vcs_write() for that case too.

2010-10-22vcs: add poll/fasync supportNicolas Pitre
The /dev/vcs* devices are used, amongst other things, by accessibility applications such as BRLTTY to display the screen content onto refreshable braille displays. Currently this is performed by constantly reading from /dev/vcsa0 whether or not the screen content has changed. Given the default braille refresh rate of 25 times per second, this easily qualifies as the biggest source of wake-up events preventing laptops from entering deeper power saving states. To avoid this periodic polling, let's add support for select()/poll() and SIGIO with the /dev/vcs* devices. The implemented semantic is to report data availability whenever the corresponding vt has seen some update after the last read() operation. The application still has to lseek() back as usual in order to read() the new data. Not to create unwanted overhead, the needed data structure is allocated and the vt notification callback is registered only when the poll or fasync method is invoked for the first time per file instance.

2010-10-22Char: mxser, call pci_disable_device from probe/removeJiri Slaby
Vasiliy found that pci_disable_device is not called on fail paths in mxser_probe. Actually, it is called from nowhere in the driver. There are three changes needed: 1) don't use pseudo-generic mxser_release_res. Let's use it only from ISA paths from now on. All the pci stuff is moved to probe and remove PCI-related functions. 2) reorder fail-paths in the probe function so that it makes sense and we can call them from the sequential code naturally (the further we are the earlier label we go to). 3) add pci_disable_device both to mxser_probe and mxser_remove. There is a nit of adding CONFIG_PCI ifdef to mxser_remove. it is because this driver supports ISA-only compilations and it would choke up on the newly added calls now.
