char:pcmcia:synclink_cs - Do not initialise statics to 0.

Static variables are initialised to 0 by GCC. Fixes the following checkpatch error: ERROR: do not initialise statics to 0 or NULL FILE: drivers/char/pcmcia/synclink_cs.c:440: static bool break_on_load = 0; Signed-off-by: Shailendra Verma Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

pcmcia: Convert dev_printk to dev_

2015-05-30T14:09:04+00:00

Reduce object size a little by using dev_ calls instead of dev_printk(KERN_. Other miscellanea: o Coalesce formats o Realign arguments o Use pr_cont instead of naked printk reorder test to use "%s\n" Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: Dominik Brodowski

char: synclink: Remove WARN_ON for bad port count

2014-07-10T23:07:46+00:00

tty_port_close_start() already validates the port counts and issues a diagnostic if validation fails. Signed-off-by: Peter Hurley Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tty: Remove tty_hung_up_p() tests from tty drivers' open()

2014-07-10T23:06:49+00:00

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->ops->open(tty, filp) | tty_port_open | tty_port_block_til_ready | .. | while (1) | .. | tty_unlock | / unblocks schedule | for each filp on tty->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->count bump. CC: Mikael Starvik CC: Samuel Ortiz CC: "David S. Miller" Signed-off-by: Peter Hurley Acked-by: Jesper Nilsson Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tty: Fix help text of SYNCLINK_CS

tty: synclink: avoid sleep_on race

2014-01-08T01:05:21+00:00

The four variants of the synclink driver use the same code in their open() callback to wait for a port in process of being closed, using interruptible_sleep_on, which is racy and going away soon. Making things worse, these functions hold the BTM while doing so, which means that if we ever enter this code path, we cannot actually continue since the other thread that is in process of closing the port can no longer get the BTM. This addresses both issues by using wait_event_interruptible_tty() instead. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman Cc: Jiri Slaby Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Finally eradicate CONFIG_HOTPLUG

2013-06-03T21:20:18+00:00

Ever since commit 45f035ab9b8f ("CONFIG_HOTPLUG should be always on"), it has been basically impossible to build a kernel with CONFIG_HOTPLUG turned off. Remove all the remaining references to it.

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

2013-02-27T04:16:07+00:00

Pull vfs pile (part one) from Al Viro: "Assorted stuff - cleaning namei.c up a bit, fixing ->d_name/->d_parent locking violations, etc. The most visible changes here are death of FS_REVAL_DOT (replaced with "has ->d_weak_revalidate()") and a new helper getting from struct file to inode. Some bits of preparation to xattr method interface changes. Misc patches by various people sent this cycle *and* ocfs2 fixes from several cycles ago that should've been upstream right then.
