tty: add SPDX identifiers to all remaining files in drivers/tty/

2017-11-08T12:08:12+00:00

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to audit the kernel tree for correct licenses. Update the drivers/tty files files with the correct SPDX license identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

vt: use memdup_user in PIO_UNIMAP ioctl

2017-06-09T09:07:36+00:00

Again, a nice linear transfer that simplifies the code. Signed-off-by: Adam Borowski Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

vt: use copy_to_user instead of __put_user in GIO_UNIMAP ioctl

2017-06-09T09:07:36+00:00

A nice big linear transfer, no need to flip stac/PAN/etc every half-entry. Also, yay __put_user() after checking only read. Signed-off-by: Adam Borowski Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

vt: use copy_from/to_user instead of __get/put_user for scrnmap ioctls

2017-06-09T09:07:36+00:00

Linus wants to get rid of these functions, and these uses are especially egregious: they copy a big linear array element by element. Signed-off-by: Adam Borowski Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Replace with globally

2016-12-24T19:46:01+00:00

This was entirely automated, using the script by Al: PATT='^[[:blank:]]*#[[:blank:]]*include[[:blank:]]*' sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include !" \ $(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h) to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

console: Move userspace I/O out of console_lock to fix lockdep warning

2016-11-29T20:42:40+00:00

When running certain workload on a debug kernel with lockdep turned on, a ppc64 kvm guest could sometimes hit the following lockdep warning: [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(&mm->mmap_sem); lock(console_lock); lock(&mm->mmap_sem); lock(cpu_hotplug.lock); *** DEADLOCK *** Looking at the console code, the console_lock-->mmap_sem scenario will only happen when reading or writing the console unicode map leading to a page fault. To break this circular locking dependency, all the userspace I/O operations in consolemap.c are now moved outside of the console_lock critical sections so that the mmap_sem won't be acquired when holding the console_lock.

tty: vt, ignore PIO_UNIMAPCLR param

2016-06-25T16:04:48+00:00

We do not do hashtables for unicode fonts since 1995 (1.3.28). So it is time to remove the second parameter of con_clear_unimap and ignore the advice from userspace completely. Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tty: consolemap.c: move assignment out of if () block

2015-05-10T17:04:16+00:00

We should not be doing assignments within an if () block so fix up the code to not do this. change was created using Coccinelle. CC: Jiri Slaby CC: Takashi Iwai CC: Imre Deak Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tty/vt: don't set font mappings on vc not supporting this

2014-11-06T04:12:02+00:00

We can call this function for a dummy console that doesn't support setting the font mapping, which will result in a null ptr BUG. So check for this case and return error for consoles w/o font mapping support.
