um: Remove obsolete reenable_XX calls

2018-12-27T21:48:35+00:00

reenable_fd has been a NOP since the introduction of the EPOLL based interrupt controller. reenable_channel() is no longer needed as the flow control is now handled via the write IRQs on the channel. Signed-off-by: Anton Ivanov Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger

um: Make line/tty semantics use true write IRQ

2018-10-29T21:34:16+00:00

This fixes a long standing bug where large amounts of output could freeze the tty (most commonly seen on stdio console). While the bug has always been there it became more pronounced after moving to the new interrupt controller. The line semantics are now changed to have true IRQ write semantics which should further improve the tty/line subsystem stability and performance Signed-off-by: Anton Ivanov Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger

Epoll based IRQ controller

2018-02-19T18:38:51+00:00

1. Removes the need to walk the IRQ/Device list to determine who triggered the IRQ. 2. Improves scalability (up to several times performance improvement for cases with 10s of devices). 3. Improves UML baseline IO performance for one disk + one NIC use case by up to 10%. 4. Introduces write poll triggered IRQs. 5. Prerequisite for introducing high performance mmesg family of functions in network IO. 6. Fixes RNG shutdown which was leaking a file descriptor Signed-off-by: Anton Ivanov Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger

sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to

2017-03-02T07:42:29+00:00

We are going to split out of , which will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files. Create a trivial placeholder file that just maps to to make this patch obviously correct and bisectable. Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

uml: Fix unsafe pid reference to foreground process group

2014-11-06T00:26:13+00:00

Although the tty core maintains a pid reference for the foreground process group, if the foreground process group is changed that pid reference is dropped. Thus, the pid reference used for signalling could become stale. Safely obtain a pid reference to the foreground process group and release the reference after signalling is complete. cc: Jeff Dike Acked-by: Richard Weinberger Signed-off-by: Peter Hurley Reviewed-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Merge 3.9-rc3 into tty-next

TTY: add tty_port_tty_wakeup helper

2013-03-18T23:19:45+00:00

It allows for cleaning up on a considerable amount of places. They did port_get, wakeup, kref_put. Now the only thing needed is to call tty_port_tty_wakeup which does exactly that. One exception is ifx6x60 where tty_wakeup was open-coded. We now call tty_wakeup properly there. Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

um: Use tty_port in SIGWINCH handler

2013-03-11T09:08:04+00:00

The tty below tty_port might get destroyed by the tty layer while we hold a reference to it. So we have to carry tty_port around... Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger

um: Use tty_port_operations->destruct

2013-03-11T09:08:03+00:00

As we setup the SIGWINCH handler in tty_port_operations->activate it makes sense to tear down it in ->destruct. Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger

TTY: switch tty_flip_buffer_push

2013-01-16T06:30:15+00:00

Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty in many call sites. Only tty_port will needed and hence no more tty_port_tty_get in those paths. Now, the one where most of tty_port_tty_get gets removed: tty_flip_buffer_push. IOW we also closed all the races in drivers not using tty_port_tty_get at all yet. Also we move tty_flip_buffer_push declaration from include/linux/tty.h to include/linux/tty_flip.h to all others while we are changing it anyway.
