xen/x86: make "earlyprintk=xen" work for HVM/PVH DomU

2021-10-05T06:36:05+00:00

xenboot_write_console() is dealing with these quite fine so I don't see why xenboot_console_setup() would return -ENOENT in this case. Adjust documentation accordingly.

xen/x86: make "earlyprintk=xen" work better for PVH Dom0

2021-10-05T06:36:00+00:00

The xen_hvm_early_write() path better wouldn't be taken in this case; while port 0xE9 can be used, the hypercall path is quite a bit more efficient. Put that first, as it may also work for DomU-s (see also xen_raw_console_write()). While there also bail from the function when the first domU_write_console() failed - later ones aren't going to succeed.

tty: drop put_tty_driver

2021-07-27T10:17:21+00:00

put_tty_driver() is an alias for tty_driver_kref_put(). There is no need for two exported identical functions, therefore switch all users of old put_tty_driver() to new tty_driver_kref_put() and remove the former for good.

tty: stop using alloc_tty_driver

2021-07-27T10:17:20+00:00

alloc_tty_driver was deprecated by tty_alloc_driver in commit 7f0bc6a68ed9 (TTY: pass flags to alloc_tty_driver) in 2012. I never got into eliminating alloc_tty_driver until now. So we still have two functions for allocating drivers which might be confusing. So get rid of alloc_tty_driver uses to eliminate it for good in the next patch. Note we need to switch return value checking as tty_alloc_driver uses ERR_PTR. And flags are now a parameter of tty_alloc_driver.

tty: don't store semi-state into tty drivers

2021-07-27T10:17:20+00:00

When a tty driver pointer is used as a return value of struct console's device() hook, don't store a semi-state into global variable which holds the tty driver. It could mean console::device() would return a bogus value. This is important esp. after the next patch where we switch from alloc_tty_driver to tty_alloc_driver. tty_alloc_driver returns ERR_PTR in case of error and that might have unexpected results as the code doesn't expect this.

hvsi: don't panic on tty_register_driver failure

2021-07-27T10:17:20+00:00

The alloc_tty_driver failure is handled gracefully in hvsi_init. But tty_register_driver is not. panic is called if that one fails. So handle the failure of tty_register_driver gracefully too. This will keep at least the console functional as it was enabled earlier by console_initcall in hvsi_console_init. Instead of shooting down the whole system. This means, we disable interrupts and restore hvsi_wait back to poll_for_state().

tty: hvc: replace BUG_ON() with negative return value

2021-07-21T13:57:28+00:00

Xen frontends shouldn't BUG() in case of illegal data received from their backends. So replace the BUG_ON()s when reading illegal data from the ring page with negative return values.
