This commit adds a new feature, MULTIPORT. If the host supports this
feature as well, the config space has the number of ports defined for
that device. New ports are spawned according to this information.
The config space also has the maximum number of ports that can be
spawned for a particular device. This is useful in initializing the
appropriate number of virtqueues in advance, as ports might be
hot-plugged in later.
Using this feature, generic ports can be created which are not tied to
hvc consoles.
We also open up a private channel between the host and the guest via
which some "control" messages are exchanged for the ports, like whether
the port being spawned is a console port, resizing the console window,
etc.
Next commits will add support for hotplugging and presenting char
devices in /dev/ for bi-directional guest-host communication.

This reverts commit 7036251180 ("tty: fix race in tty_fasync") and
commit b04da8bfdf ("fnctl: f_modown should call write_lock_irqsave/
restore") that tried to fix up some of the fallout but was incomplete.
It turns out that we really cannot hold 'tty->ctrl_lock' over calling
__f_setown, because not only did that cause problems with interrupt
disables (which the second commit fixed), it also causes a potential
ABBA deadlock due to lock ordering.
Thanks to Tetsuo Handa for following up on the issue, and running
lockdep to show the problem. It goes roughly like this:
- f_getown gets filp->f_owner.lock for reading without interrupts
disabled, so an interrupt that happens while that lock is held can
cause a lockdep chain from f_owner.lock -> sighand->siglock.
- at the same time, the tty->ctrl_lock -> f_owner.lock chain that
commit 7036251180 introduced, together with the pre-existing
sighand->siglock -> tty->ctrl_lock chain means that we have a lock
dependency the other way too.
So instead of extending tty->ctrl_lock over the whole __f_setown() call,
we now just take a reference to the 'pid' structure while holding the
lock, and then release it after having done the __f_setown. That still
guarantees that 'struct pid' won't go away from under us, which is all
we really ever needed.

The above commit changes agp_amd64_init() not to do anything if
gart_iommu_aperture is not zero.
If GART iommu calls agp_amd64_init(), we need to skip
agp_amd64_init() when it's called later via module_init.
The problem is that gart_iommu_init() calls agp_amd64_init()
with not zero gart_iommu_aperture so agp_amd64_init() is never
initialized.
When gart_iommu_init() calls agp_amd64_init(), agp should be
always initialized.

Current implementation of Mac mouse button emulation plugs into legacy
keyboard driver, converts certain keys into button events on a separate
device, and suppresses the real events from reaching tty. This worked
well enough until user space started using evdev which was completely
unaware of this arrangement and kept sending original key presses to
its users. Change the implementation to use newly added input filter
framework so that original key presses are not transmitted to any
handlers.
As a bonus remove SYSCTL dependencies from the code and use Kconfig
instead; also do not create the emulated mouse device until user
activates emulation.

agp_amd64_init() and agp_amd64_cleanup should be called only

Commit 15b8dd53f5 changed the string in info->hardware_id from a static
array to a pointer and added a length field. But instead of changing
"sizeof(array)" to "length", we changed it to "sizeof(length)" (== 4),
which corrupts the string we're trying to null-terminate.
We no longer even need to null-terminate the string, but we *do* need to
check whether we found a HID. If there's no HID, we used to have an empty
array, but now we have a null pointer.
The combination of these defects causes this oops:

dependent on CONFIG_PNP:
#ifdef CONFIG_PNP

This is a new generic kernel FIFO implementation.
The current kernel fifo API is not very widely used, because it has to
many constrains. Only 17 files in the current 2.6.31-rc5 used it.
FIFO's are like list's a very basic thing and a kfifo API which handles
the most use case would save a lot of development time and memory
resources.
I think this are the reasons why kfifo is not in use:
- The API is to simple, important functions are missing
- A fifo can be only allocated dynamically
- There is a requirement of a spinlock whether you need it or not
- There is no support for data records inside a fifo
So I decided to extend the kfifo in a more generic way without blowing up
the API to much. The new API has the following benefits:
- Generic usage: For kernel internal use and/or device driver.
- Provide an API for the most use case.
- Slim API: The whole API provides 25 functions.
- Linux style habit.
- DECLARE_KFIFO, DEFINE_KFIFO and INIT_KFIFO Macros
- Direct copy_to_user from the fifo and copy_from_user into the fifo.
- The kfifo itself is an in place member of the using data structure, this save an
indirection access and does not waste the kernel allocator.
- Lockless access: if only one reader and one writer is active on the fifo,
which is the common use case, no additional locking is necessary.
- Remove spinlock - give the user the freedom of choice what kind of locking to use if
one is required.
- Ability to handle records. Three type of records are supported:
- Variable length records between 0-255 bytes, with a record size
field of 1 bytes.
- Variable length records between 0-65535 bytes, with a record size
field of 2 bytes.
- Fixed size records, which no record size field.
- Preserve memory resource.
- Performance!
- Easy to use!
This patch:
Since most users want to have the kfifo as part of another object,
reorganize the code to allow including struct kfifo in another data
structure. This requires changing the kfifo_alloc and kfifo_init
prototypes so that we pass an existing kfifo pointer into them. This
patch changes the implementation and all existing users.

Now that we've removed the BKL here, let's explicitly set llseek to
no_llseek since the default llseek is not used here.
The default_llseek function still contains the BKL. When we are auditing
code to see if we can remove the BKL, this is one of the hidden
considerations we need to take into account. i.e., is there
syncronization between code that has the BKL and llseek.
At the same time we remove the BKL it would be a good idea to do indicate
when no llseek function is required, so we don't have to revisit this code
again, when we are trying to determine if we can remove the BKL from the

Fix node-oriented allocation handling in oom-kill.c I myself think of this
as a bugfix not as an ehnancement.
In these days, things are changed as
- alloc_pages() eats nodemask as its arguments, __alloc_pages_nodemask().
- mempolicy don't maintain its own private zonelists.
(And cpuset doesn't use nodemask for __alloc_pages_nodemask())
So, current oom-killer's check function is wrong.
This patch does
- check nodemask, if nodemask && nodemask doesn't cover all
node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY], this is CONSTRAINT_MEMORY_POLICY.
- Scan all zonelist under nodemask, if it hits cpuset's wall
this faiulre is from cpuset.
And
- modifies the caller of out_of_memory not to call oom if __GFP_THISNODE.
This doesn't change "current" behavior. If callers use __GFP_THISNODE
it should handle "page allocation failure" by itself.
- handle __GFP_NOFAIL+__GFP_THISNODE path.
This is something like a FIXME but this gfpmask is not used now.

The kernel offers with TIOCL_GETKMSGREDIRECT ioctl() the possibility to
redirect the kernel messages to a specific console.
However, since it's not possible to switch to the kernel message console
after a panic(), it would be nice if the kernel would print the panic
message on the current console.
This patch series adds a new interface to access the global kmsg_redirect
variable by a function to be able to use it in code where
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE is not set (kernel/panic.c).
This patch:
Instead of using and exporting a global value kmsg_redirect, introduce a
function vt_kmsg_redirect() that both can set and return the console where
messages are printed.
Change all users of kmsg_redirect (the VT code itself and kernel/power.c)
to the new interface.
The main advantage is that vt_kmsg_redirect() can also be used when
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE is not set.

The fasync path takes the BKL (it probably doesn't need to in fact)
while holding the file_list spinlock. You can't do that with the kernel
lock: it causes lock inversions and deadlocks.
Leave the BKL over that bit for the moment.

In nvram_write, first of all, correctly handle the case where the file
pointer is already beyond the end; we should return EOF in that case.
Second, make the logic a bit more explicit so that gcc can statically
prove that the copy_from_user() is safe. Once the condition of the
beyond-end filepointer is eliminated, the copy is safe but gcc can't
prove it, causing build failures for i386 allyesconfig.
Third, eliminate the entirely superfluous variable "len", and just use
the passed-in variable "count" instead.

moxa_openlock is used for several situations where we want to handle the
case of an ioctl that crosses many ports (not just the open tty), and also
cases where an open races a deinit (eg a pci unplug) and we hangup a port
before we can cope with that.
The non open race cases can use the moxa_lock spinlock. This simplifies sorting
out the remaining mess.

Some devices want to set IO_ERROR in their activate methods so that you can
be handed a 'dead' port for operations like setserial. Thus we need to

While Linux provided an O_SYNC flag basically since day 1, it took until
Linux 2.4.0-test12pre2 to actually get it implemented for filesystems,
since that day we had generic_osync_around with only minor changes and the
great "For now, when the user asks for O_SYNC, we'll actually give
O_DSYNC" comment. This patch intends to actually give us real O_SYNC
semantics in addition to the O_DSYNC semantics. After Jan's O_SYNC
patches which are required before this patch it's actually surprisingly
simple, we just need to figure out when to set the datasync flag to
vfs_fsync_range and when not.
This patch renames the existing O_SYNC flag to O_DSYNC while keeping it's
numerical value to keep binary compatibility, and adds a new real O_SYNC
flag. To guarantee backwards compatiblity it is defined as expanding to
both the O_DSYNC and the new additional binary flag (__O_SYNC) to make
sure we are backwards-compatible when compiled against the new headers.
This also means that all places that don't care about the differences can
just check O_DSYNC and get the right behaviour for O_SYNC, too - only
places that actuall care need to check __O_SYNC in addition. Drivers and
network filesystems have been updated in a fail safe way to always do the
full sync magic if O_DSYNC is set. The few places setting O_SYNC for
lower layers are kept that way for now to stay failsafe.
We enforce that O_DSYNC is set when __O_SYNC is set early in the open path
to make sure we always get these sane options.
Note that parisc really screwed up their headers as they already define a
O_DSYNC that has always been a no-op. We try to repair it by using it for
the new O_DSYNC and redefinining O_SYNC to send both the traditional
O_SYNC numerical value _and_ the O_DSYNC one.

Most of the irq_req_t typedef'd struct can be re-worked quite
easily:
(1) IRQInfo2 was unused in any case, so drop it.
(2) IRQInfo1 was used write-only, so drop it.
(3) Instance (private data to be passed to the IRQ handler):
Most PCMCIA drivers using pcmcia_request_irq() to actually
register an IRQ handler set the "dev_id" to the same pointer
as the "priv" pointer in struct pcmcia_device. Modify the two
exceptions (ipwireless, ibmtr_cs) to also work this waym and
set the IRQ handler's "dev_id" to p_dev->priv unconditionally.
(4) Handler is to be of type irq_handler_t.
(5) Handler != NULL already tells whether an IRQ handler is present.
Therefore, we do not need the IRQ_HANDLER_PRESENT flag in
irq_req_t.Attributes.

in cm4000_cs.c cm4040_cs.c are now hidden behind a "#ifdef CM4000_DEBUG"

Also, remove all usages of the CS_CHECK macro and replace them with proper

Some newer Lenovo models are shipped with a TPM that doesn't seem to set the TPM_STS_DATA_EXPECT status bit
when sending it a burst of data, so the code understands it as a failure and doesn't proceed sending the chip

This patch is based on Andy Isaacson's one:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=124650185023495&w=2

virtio: add virtio IDs file
moved all device IDs into a single file. While the change itself is
a very good one, it can break userspace applications. For example
if a userspace tool wanted to get the ID of virtio_net it used to
include virtio_net.h. This does no longer work, since virtio_net.h
does not include virtio_ids.h.
This patch moves all "#include <linux/virtio_ids.h>" from the C
files into the header files, making the header files compatible with
the old ones.
In addition, this patch exports virtio_ids.h to userspace.

Analysis:
---------
int minor is local to the function.
The following are protected by agp_fe.agp_mutex
struct agp_file_private *priv;
struct agp_client *client;
Call-outs:
kzalloc should be safe to call under the mutex_lock
agp_find_client_by_pid:
- agp_mmap calls that under agp_fe.agp_mutex which we hold in agp_open
- agpioc_reserve_wrap calls it without any locking what-so-ever.
- Is that an error? Or is that okay because it has pid that is
a unique handle?
agp_insert_file_private:
- This function only manipulates struct agp_file_private, once again

The generic open callback for the mem class devices is "protected" by
the bkl.
Let's look at the datas manipulated inside memory_open:
- inode and file: safe
- the devlist: safe because it is constant
- the memdev classes inside this array are safe too (constant)
After we find out which memdev file operation we need to use, we call
its open callback. Depending on the targeted memdev, we call either
open_port() that doesn't manipulate any racy data (just a capable()
check), or we call nothing.
So it's safe to remove the big kernel lock there.

A couple of people have hit the WARN_ON() in drivers/char/tty_io.c,
tty_open() that is unhappy about seeing the tty line discipline go away
during the tty hangup. See for example
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14255
and the reason is that we do the tty_ldisc_halt() outside the
ldisc_mutex in order to be able to flush the scheduled work without a
deadlock with vhangup_work.
However, it turns out that we can solve this particular case by
- using "cancel_delayed_work_sync()" in tty_ldisc_halt(), which waits
for just the particular work, rather than synchronizing with any
random outstanding pending work.
This won't deadlock, since the buf.work we synchronize with doesn't
care about the ldisc_mutex, it just flushes the tty ldisc buffers.
- realize that for this particular case, we don't need to wait for any
hangup work, because we are inside the hangup codepaths ourselves.
so as a result we can just drop the flush_scheduled_work() entirely, and
then move the tty_ldisc_halt() call to inside the mutex. That way we
never expose the partially torn down ldisc state to tty_open(), and hold
the ldisc_mutex over the whole sequence.
