2012-03-08vt:tackle kbd_tableAlan Cox1-4/+2
Keyboard struct lifetime is easy, but the locking is not and is completely ignored by the existing code. Tackle this one head on - Make the kbd_table private so we can run down all direct users - Hoick the relevant ioctl handlers into the keyboard layer - Lock them with the keyboard lock so they don't change mid keypress - Add helpers for things like console stop/start so we isolate the poking around properly - Tweak the braille console so it still builds There are a couple of FIXME locking cases left for ioctls that are so hideous they should be addressed in a later patch. After this patch the kbd_table is private and all the keyboard jiggery pokery is in one place. This update fixes speakup and also a memory leak in the original.

2012-02-09sysrq: Properly check for kernel threadsAnton Vorontsov1-3/+6
There's a real possibility of killing kernel threads that might have issued use_mm(), so kthread's mm might become non-NULL. This patch fixes the issue by checking for PF_KTHREAD (just as get_task_mm()).

2012-02-09sysrq: Fix possible race with exiting taskAnton Vorontsov1-0/+2
sysrq should grab the tasklist lock, otherwise calling force_sig() is not safe, as it might race with exiting task, which ->sighand might be set to NULL already.

2012-01-04fs: move code out of buffer.cAl Viro1-1/+1
Move invalidate_bdev, block_sync_page into fs/block_dev.c. Export kill_bdev as well, so brd doesn't have to open code it. Reduce buffer_head.h requirement accordingly. Removed a rather large comment from invalidate_bdev, as it looked a bit obsolete to bother moving. The small comment replacing it says enough.

2011-03-25lib, arch: add filter argument to show_mem and fix private implementationsDavid Rientjes1-1/+1
Commit ddd588b5dd55 ("oom: suppress nodes that are not allowed from meminfo on oom kill") moved lib/show_mem.o out of lib/lib.a, which resulted in build warnings on all architectures that implement their own versions of show_mem(): lib/lib.a(show_mem.o): In function `show_mem': show_mem.c:(.text+0x1f4): multiple definition of `show_mem' arch/sparc/mm/built-in.o:(.text+0xd70): first defined here The fix is to remove __show_mem() and add its argument to show_mem() in all implementations to prevent this breakage. Architectures that implement their own show_mem() actually don't do anything with the argument yet, but they could be made to filter nodes that aren't allowed in the current context in the future just like the generic implementation.

2010-11-05TTY: create drivers/tty and move the tty core files thereGreg Kroah-Hartman1-0/+811
The tty code should be in its own subdirectory and not in the char driver with all of the cruft that is currently there.
