We allocate during interrupts so while our buffering is normally diced up small anyway on some hardware at speed we can pressure the VM excessively for page pairs. We don't really need big buffers to be linear so don't try so hard. In order to make this work well we will tidy up excess callers to request_room, which cannot itself enforce this break up.

This was noticed by Matthias Urlichs and he proposed a fix. This patch does the fixing a different way to avoid introducing several new race conditions into the code. The problem case is TTY_DRIVER_RESET_TERMIOS = 0. In that case while we abort the ldisc change, the hangup processing has not cleaned up and restarted the ldisc either. We can't restart the ldisc stuff in the set_ldisc as we don't know what the hangup did and may touch stuff we shouldn't as we are no longer supposed to influence the tty at that point in case it has been re-opened before we get rescheduled. Instead do it the simple way. Always re-init the ldisc on the hangup, but use TTY_DRIVER_RESET_TERMIOS to indicate that we should force N_TTY.

The original author didn't realise the kernel lock was a drop while sleep lock so did clever (and wrong) things to work around the non need to avoid deadlocks.

The Nozomi tty handling is very broken on the open/close side (See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13024 for one example). In particular it marks the tty as closed on the first close() not on the last. Most of the logic is pretty solid except for the open/close path so switch to the tty_port helpers and let them do all the heavy lifting. This is also fixes all the POSIX behaviour violations in the open/close paths. Begin by adding the tty port usage Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

The platform code doesn't have to provide platform data to get sensible default behaviour from the imx serial driver. This patch does not handle NULL dereference in the IrDA case, which still requires a valid platform data pointer (in imx_startup()/imx_shutdown()), since I don't know whether there is a sensible default behaviour, or should the operation just fail cleanly.

Paul Fulghum authored
Fix transmit bug that could drop send data if write() called close to serial transmitter going idle after sending previous data. Bug is caused by incorrect use of device information member tx_count. Driver originally processed one data block (write call) at a time, waiting for transmit idle before sending more. tx_count recorded how much data was loaded in DMA buffers on write(), and was cleared on send completion. tx_count use was overloaded to record accumulated data from put_char() callback when transmitter was idle. A bug was introduced when transmit code was reworked to allow multiple blocks of data in the tx DMA buffers which keeps transmitter from going idle between blocks. tx_count was set to size of last block loaded, cleared when tx went idle, and monitored to know when to restart transmitter without proper synchronization. tx_count could be cleared when unsent data remained in DMA buffers and transmitter required restarting, effectively dropping unsent data. Solution: 1. tx_count now used only to track accumulated data from put_char 2. DMA buffer state tracked by direct inspection of descriptors with spinlock synchronization 3. consolidate these tasks in tx_load() : a. check for available buffer space b. load buffers c. restart DMA and or serial transmitter as needed These steps were previously duplicated in multiple places, sometimes incompletely. 4. fix use of tx_count as active transmit indicator, instead using tx_active which is meant for that purpose Signed-off-by: Paul Fulghum <paulkf@microgate.com> Cc: Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk> Cc: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

Fit blackfin uart over sport driver into common uart inftrastructure. It is based on the early platform interfaces to get the platform data early when the console is initilized. 1. Enable sport uart driver to change uart baud, data bit, stop bit at runtime. Bind the index of uart device nodes to physical index of sports. 2. Move all platform data into arch specific board files. Register and probe platform device data in both early and normal stages. 3. Console is registered in sport uart driver as well. 4. Remove 500 us block waiting in sport tx stop code by putting a dummy data into tx fifo to make sure the sport tx stops when all bytes are shifted out except for the dummy data. 5. clean up a bit and fix up coding style.

When writing a disc on certain lite-on dvd-writers (also rebadged as optiarc/LG/...) connected to a vt6420, the ATAPI CDB ends up in the datastream and on the disc, causing silent corruption. Delaying between sending the CDB and starting DMA seems to prevent this. I do not know if there are burners that do not suffer from this, but the patch should be safe for those as well. There are many reports of this issue, but AFAICT no solution was found before.

I have a Delkin Devices compact flash card that isn't being recognized using the SATA/PATA drivers. The card is recognized and works with the deprecated ATA drivers. The error I am seeing is: ata1.00: failed to IDENTIFY (device reports invalid type, err_mask=0x0) I tracked it down to ata_id_is_cfa() in include/linux/ata.h. The Delkin card has id[0] set to 0x844a and id[83] set to 0. This isn't what the kernel expects and is probably incorrect. The simplest work-around is to add a check for 0x844a to ata_id_is_cfa().
