2013-08-27powerpc/hvsi: Increase handshake timeout from 200ms to 400ms.Eugene Surovegin1-2/+2
This solves a problem observed in kexec'ed kernel where 200ms timeout is too short and bootconsole fails to initialize. Console did eventually become workable but much later into the boot process. Observed timeout was around 260ms, but I decided to make it a little bigger for more reliability. This has been tested on Power7 machine with Petitboot as a primary bootloader and PowerNV firmware.

2013-08-12tile: various console improvementsChris Metcalf1-6/+143
This change improves and cleans up the tile console. - We enable HVC_IRQ support on tilegx, with the addition of a new Tilera hypervisor API for tilegx to allow a console IPI. If IPI support is not available we fall back to the previous polling mode. - We simplify the earlyprintk code to use CON_BOOT and eliminate some of the other supporting earlyprintk code. - A new tile_console_write() primitive is used to send output to the console and is factored out of the hvc_tile driver. This lets us support a "sim_console" boot argument to allow using simulator hooks to send output to the "console" as a slightly faster alternative to emulating the hardware more directly.

2013-07-24tty/hvc_iucv: Disconnect IUCV connection when lowering DTRHendrik Brueckner1-13/+51
Implement the dtr_rts() hvc console callback to improve control when to disconnect the IUCV connection. Previously, the IUCV connection was disconnected during the notifier_del() callback, i.e., when the last file descriptor to the hvc terminal device was closed. Recent changes in login programs caused undesired disconnects during the login phase. To prevent these kind of disconnects, implement the dtr_rts callback to implicitly handle the HUPCL termios control via the hvc_console driver.

Introduce a new callback to explicitly handle the HUPCL termios control flag. This prepares for a follow-up commit for the hvc_iucv device driver to improve handling when to drop an established network connection.

Pull Xen update from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk: "This has two new ACPI drivers for Xen - a physical CPU offline/online and a memory hotplug. The way this works is that ACPI kicks the drivers and they make the appropiate hypercall to the hypervisor to tell it that there is a new CPU or memory. There also some changes to the Xen ARM ABIs and couple of fixes. One particularly nasty bug in the Xen PV spinlock code was fixed by Stefan Bader - and has been there since the 2.6.32!

2013-02-19xen: introduce xen_remap, use it instead of ioremapStefano Stabellini1-1/+1
ioremap can't be used to map ring pages on ARM because it uses device memory caching attributes (MT_DEVICE*). Introduce a Xen specific abstraction to map ring pages, called xen_remap, that is defined as ioremap on x86 (no behavioral changes). On ARM it explicitly calls __arm_ioremap with the right caching attributes: MT_MEMORY.

2013-01-18tty: Added a CONFIG_TTY option to allow removal of TTYJoe Millenbach1-0/+3
The option allows you to remove TTY and compile without errors. This saves space on systems that won't support TTY interfaces anyway. bloat-o-meter output is below. The bulk of this patch consists of Kconfig changes adding "depends on TTY" to various serial devices and similar drivers that require the TTY layer. Ideally, these dependencies would occur on a common intermediate symbol such as SERIO, but most drivers "select SERIO" rather than "depends on SERIO", and "select" does not respect dependencies. bloat-o-meter output comparing our previous minimal to new minimal by removing TTY.

2012-11-15TTY: call tty_port_destroy in the rest of driversJiri Slaby1-0/+1
After commit "TTY: move tty buffers to tty_port", the tty buffers are not freed in some drivers. This is because tty_port_destructor is not called whenever a tty_port is freed. This was an assumption I counted with but was unfortunately untrue. So fix the drivers to fulfil this assumption. To be sure, the TTY buffers (and later some stuff) are gone along with the tty_port, we have to call tty_port_destroy at tear-down places. This is mostly where the structure containing a tty_port is freed. This patch does exactly that -- put tty_port_destroy at those places.

2012-11-14TTY: hvc_console, fix port reference count going to zero prematurelyPaul Mackerras1-7/+0
Commit bdb498c20040 "TTY: hvc_console, add tty install" took the port refcounting out of hvc_open()/hvc_close(), but failed to remove the kref_put() and tty_kref_put() calls in hvc_hangup() that were there to remove the extra references that hvc_open() had taken. The result was that doing a vhangup() when the current terminal was a hvc_console, then closing the current terminal, would end up calling destroy_hvc_struct() and making the port disappear entirely. This meant that Fedora 17 systems would boot up but then not display the login prompt on the console, and attempts to open /dev/hvc0 would give a "No such device" error. This fixes it by removing the extra kref_put() and tty_kref_put() calls.

Pull Xen fixes from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk: "This has four bug-fixes and one tiny feature that I forgot to put initially in my tree due to oversight. The feature is for kdump kernels to speed up the /proc/vmcore reading. There is a ram_is_pfn helper function that the different platforms can register for. We are now doing that. The bug-fixes cover some embarrassing struct pv_cpu_ops variables being set to NULL on Xen (but not baremetal). We had a similar issue in the past with {write|read}_msr_safe and this fills the three missing ones. The other bug-fix is to make the console output (hvc) be capable of dealing with misbehaving backends and not fall flat on its face. Lastly, a quirk for older XenBus implementations that came with an ancient v3.4 hypervisor (so RHEL5 based) - reading of certain non-existent attributes just hangs the guest during bootup - so we take precaution of not doing that on such older installations. Feature: - Register a pfn_is_ram helper to speed up reading of /proc/vmcore. Bug-fixes: - Three pvops call for Xen were undefined causing BUG_ONs. - Add a quirk so that the shutdown watches (used by kdump) are not used with older Xen (3.4). - Fix ungraceful state transition for the HVC console." * tag 'stable/for-linus-3.7-rc0-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen: xen/pv-on-hvm kexec: add quirk for Xen 3.4 and shutdown watches. xen/bootup: allow {read|write}_cr8 pvops call. xen/bootup: allow read_tscp call for Xen PV guests. xen pv-on-hvm: add pfn_is_ram helper for kdump xen/hvc: handle backend CLOSED without CLOSING

2012-10-04xen/hvc: handle backend CLOSED without CLOSINGDavid Vrabel1-1/+4
Backend drivers shouldn't transistion to CLOSED unless the frontend is CLOSED. If a backend does transition to CLOSED too soon then the frontend may not see the CLOSING state and will not properly shutdown. So, treat an unexpected backend CLOSED state the same as CLOSING.

Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo: "This is workqueue updates for v3.7-rc1. A lot of activities this round including considerable API and behavior cleanups. * delayed_work combines a timer and a work item. The handling of the timer part has always been a bit clunky leading to confusing cancelation API with weird corner-case behaviors. delayed_work is updated to use new IRQ safe timer and cancelation now works as expected. * Another deficiency of delayed_work was lack of the counterpart of mod_timer() which led to cancel+queue combinations or open-coded timer+work usages. mod_delayed_work[_on]() are added. These two delayed_work changes make delayed_work provide interface and behave like timer which is executed with process context. * A work item could be executed concurrently on multiple CPUs, which is rather unintuitive and made flush_work() behavior confusing and half-broken under certain circumstances. This problem doesn't exist for non-reentrant workqueues. While non-reentrancy check isn't free, the overhead is incurred only when a work item bounces across different CPUs and even in simulated pathological scenario the overhead isn't too high. All workqueues are made non-reentrant. This removes the distinction between flush_[delayed_]work() and flush_[delayed_]_work_sync(). The former is now as strong as the latter and the specified work item is guaranteed to have finished execution of any previous queueing on return. * In addition to the various bug fixes, Lai redid and simplified CPU hotplug handling significantly. * Joonsoo introduced system_highpri_wq and used it during CPU hotplug. There are two merge commits - one to pull in IRQ safe timer from tip/timers/core and the other to pull in CPU hotplug fixes from wq/for-3.6-fixes as Lai's hotplug restructuring depended on them." Fixed a number of trivial conflicts, but the more interesting conflicts were silent ones where the deprecated interfaces had been used by new code in the merge window, and thus didn't cause any real data conflicts.

2012-09-05hvc_vio: Improve registration of udbg backendBenjamin Herrenschmidt1-53/+70
The pseries hvterm driver only registers a udbg backend (for xmon and other low level debugging mechanisms) when hvc0 is recognized as the firmware console at boot time, not if it's detected later on, for example because the firmware is using a graphics card. This can make debugging challenging especially under X11, and there's really no good reason for that limitation, so let's hookup udbg whenever hvc0 is detected instead.

2012-09-05hvc_console: Better kernel console supportBenjamin Herrenschmidt1-7/+26
hvc_console has two methods to instanciate the consoles. hvc_instanciate is meant to be called at early boot, while hvc_alloc is called for more dynamically probed objects. Currently, it only deals with adding kernel consoles in the former case, which means for example that if a console only uses dynamic probing, it will never be usable as a kernel console even when specifying console=hvc0 explicitly, which could be considered annoying... More specifically, on pseries, we only do the early instanciate for the console currently used by the firmware, so if you have your firmware configured to go to a video card, for example, you cannot get your kernel console, oops messages, etc... on your serial port or hypervisor console, which would be handy to deal with oopses. This fixes it by checking if hvc_console.flags & CON_ENABLED is set when registering a new dynamic console, and if not, redo the index check and re-register the console if the index matches, allowing console=hvcN to work.

2012-08-20workqueue: deprecate flush[_delayed]_work_sync()Tejun Heo1-1/+1
flush[_delayed]_work_sync() are now spurious. Mark them deprecated and convert all users to flush[_delayed]_work(). If you're cc'd and wondering what's going on: Now all workqueues are non-reentrant and the regular flushes guarantee that the work item is not pending or running on any CPU on return, so there's no reason to use the sync flushes at all and they're going away. This patch doesn't make any functional difference.
