The global "normal" spin lock that guards the line discipline
administration is replaced by a raw spin lock. On a PREEMPT_RT system this
prevents unwanted scheduling overhead around the line discipline administration.
On a 200 MHz AT91SAM9261 processor setup this fixes about 100us of scheduling
overhead on a TTY read or write call.

The current CE4100 and 8250_pci code have both a limitation preventing the
registration and usage of CE4100's second UART. This patch changes the
platform code fixing up the UART port to work on a relative UART port
base address, as well as the 8250_pci code to make it register 2 UART ports
for CE4100 and pass the port index down to all consumers.

Modify divisor to select the nearest baud rate divider rather than the
lowest. It minimizes baud rate errors especially on low UART clock
frequencies.
For example, if uartclk is 33000000 and baud is 115200 the ratio is
about 17.9 The current code selects 17 (5% error) but should select 18
(0.5% error).
This 5% error in baud rate leads to garbage on receiving end, while 0.5%
doesn't.
The issue showed up when using the stock 8250 driver for
Synopsys DW UART. This was on a FPGA with ~12MHz UART clock.
When we enabled early serial, we saw garbage which was narrowed down
to the rounding error.
So the bug had been latent and it only showed up with such low clock rates.

When a driver has the low_latency flag set and uses the schedule_flip()
function to initiate copying data to the line discipline, a workqueue is
scheduled in but never actually flushed. This is incorrect use of the
low_latency flag (driver should not support the low_latency flag, or use
the tty_flip_buffer_push() function instead). Make sure a warning is
reported to catch incorrect use of the low_latency flag.

For that purpose we have to temporarily introduce a second tty back
pointer into tty_port. It is because serial layer, and maybe others,
still do not use tty_port_tty_set/get. So that we cannot set the
tty_port->tty to NULL at will now.
Yes, the fix would be to convert whole serial layer and all its users
to tty_port_tty_set/get. However we are in the process of removing the
need of tty in most of the call sites, so this would lead to a
duplicated work.
Instead we have now tty_port->itty (internal tty) which will be used
only in flush_to_ldisc. For that one it is ensured that itty is valid
wherever the work is run. IOW, the work is synchronously cancelled
before we set itty to NULL and also before hangup is processed.
After we need only tty_port and not tty_struct in most code, this
shall be changed to tty_port_tty_set/get and itty removed completely.

During the move of tty buffers from tty_struct to tty_port, we will
need to switch all users of buf to tty->port->buf. There are many

NULL. It is called from two call sites. First, from n_tty_open where
we have a valid tty. Second, as ld->ops->set_termios from
tty_set_termios. But there we have a valid tty too.
* if (!tty) in n_tty_open -- why would the TTY layer call ldisc's
open with an invalid TTY? No it indeed does not. All call sites have
a tty and dereference that.
* BUG_ON(!tty->read_buf) in n_tty_read -- this used to be a valid
check. The ldisc handling was broken some time ago when I added the
check to ensure everything is OK. It still can catch the case, but
no later than we move the buffer to ldisc data. Then there will be
no read_buf in tty_struct, i.e. nothing to check for.
* if (!tty->read_buf) in n_tty_receive_buf -- this should never
happen. All callers of ldisc->ops->receive_ops should hold a
reference to an ldisc and close (which frees read_buf) cannot be

We reintroduced tty_ldisc_wait_idle in 100eeae2c5 (TTY: restore
tty_ldisc_wait_idle) and used in set_ldisc. Then we added it also to
the hangup path in 92f6fa09bd (TTY: ldisc, do not close until there
are readers). And we noted that there is one more path:
~ Before 65b770468e tty_ldisc_wait_idle was called also from
~ tty_ldisc_release. It is called from tty_release, so I don't think
~ we need to restore that one.
Well, I was wrong. There might still be holders of an ldisc
reference. Not from userspace, but drivers. If they take a reference
and a user closes the device immediately after that, we have a
problem. ldisc is halted and closed by TTY, but the driver still may
call some ldisc's operation and cause a crash.
So restore the tty_ldisc_wait_idle call also to the third location
where it was before 65b770468e (tty-ldisc: turn ldisc user count
into a proper refcount). Now we should be safe with respect to the
ldisc reference counting as all* tty_ldisc_close paths are safely
called with reference count of one.
* Not the one in tty_ldisc_setup's fail path. But that is called
before the first open finishes. So userspace does not see it yet.
Even thought the driver is given the TTY already via ->install, it
should not take a reference to the ldisc yet. If some driver is to
do this, we should put one tty_ldisc_wait_idle also in the setup.

There used to be a single tty_ldisc_ref_wait. But then, when a
big-tty-mutex (BTM) was introduced, it has to be tty_ldisc_ref +
tty_unlock + tty_ldisc_ref_wait + tty_lock. Later, BTM was removed
from that path and tty_ldisc_ref + tty_ldisc_ref_wait remained there.
But it makes no sense now. So leave there only tty_ldisc_ref_wait.
And when we have a reference to an ldisc, actually use it in the loop.
Otherwise it may be racy.

Therefor only in case a workqueue is actually used for copying data to the

This prevents unnecessary spin lock/unlock on the workqueue spin lock that

It is possible to miss data when using the kdb pager. The kdb pager
does not pay attention to the maximum column constraint of the screen
or serial terminal. This result is not incrementing the shown lines
correctly and the pager will print more lines that fit on the screen.
Obviously that is less than useful when using a VGA console where you
cannot scroll back.
The pager will now look at the kdb_buffer string to see how many
characters are printed. It might not be perfect considering you can
output ASCII that might move the cursor position, but it is a
substantially better approximation for viewing dmesg and trace logs.
This also means that the vt screen needs to set the kdb COLUMNS
variable.

It is a common enough mistake for people to specify "kdb" when they
meant to type "kbd" that the kgdboc can just accept both since they
both mean the same thing anyway. Specifically it is for the case
where you want kdb to be active on your graphics console + keyboard
(where kbd was the original abbreviation for keyboard).
With this change kgdboc will now accept either to mean the same thing:
kgdboc=kbd
kgdboc=kdb

Pull powerpc updates from Benjamin Herrenschmidt:
"Some highlights in addition to the usual batch of fixes:
- 64TB address space support for 64-bit processes by Aneesh Kumar
- Gavin Shan did a major cleanup & re-organization of our EEH support
code (IBM fancy PCI error handling & recovery infrastructure) which
paves the way for supporting different platform backends, along
with some rework of the PCIe code for the PowerNV platform in order
to remove home made resource allocations and instead use the
generic code (which is possible after some small improvements to it
done by Gavin).
- Uprobes support by Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli
- A pile of embedded updates from Freescale folks, including new SoC
and board supports, more KVM stuff including preparing for 64-bit
BookE KVM support, ePAPR 1.1 updates, etc..."

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 vfs update from Al Viro:
- big one - consolidation of descriptor-related logics; almost all of
that is moved to fs/file.c
(BTW, I'm seriously tempted to rename the result to fd.c. As it is,
we have a situation when file_table.c is about handling of struct
file and file.c is about handling of descriptor tables; the reasons
are historical - file_table.c used to be about a static array of
struct file we used to have way back).
A lot of stray ends got cleaned up and converted to saner primitives,
disgusting mess in android/binder.c is still disgusting, but at least
doesn't poke so much in descriptor table guts anymore. A bunch of
relatively minor races got fixed in process, plus an ext4 struct file
leak.
- related thing - fget_light() partially unuglified; see fdget() in
there (and yes, it generates the code as good as we used to have).
- also related - bits of Cyrill's procfs stuff that got entangled into
that work; _not_ all of it, just the initial move to fs/proc/fd.c and
switch of fdinfo to seq_file.
- Alex's fs/coredump.c spiltoff - the same story, had been easier to
take that commit than mess with conflicts. The rest is a separate
pile, this was just a mechanical code movement.
- a few misc patches all over the place. Not all for this cycle,
there'll be more (and quite a few currently sit in akpm's tree)."

Pull user namespace changes from Eric Biederman:
"This is a mostly modest set of changes to enable basic user namespace
support. This allows the code to code to compile with user namespaces
enabled and removes the assumption there is only the initial user
namespace. Everything is converted except for the most complex of the
filesystems: autofs4, 9p, afs, ceph, cifs, coda, fuse, gfs2, ncpfs,
nfs, ocfs2 and xfs as those patches need a bit more review.
The strategy is to push kuid_t and kgid_t values are far down into
subsystems and filesystems as reasonable. Leaving the make_kuid and
from_kuid operations to happen at the edge of userspace, as the values
come off the disk, and as the values come in from the network.
Letting compile type incompatible compile errors (present when user
namespaces are enabled) guide me to find the issues.
The most tricky areas have been the places where we had an implicit
union of uid and gid values and were storing them in an unsigned int.
Those places were converted into explicit unions. I made certain to
handle those places with simple trivial patches.
Out of that work I discovered we have generic interfaces for storing
quota by projid. I had never heard of the project identifiers before.
Adding full user namespace support for project identifiers accounts
for most of the code size growth in my git tree.
Ultimately there will be work to relax privlige checks from
"capable(FOO)" to "ns_capable(user_ns, FOO)" where it is safe allowing
root in a user names to do those things that today we only forbid to
non-root users because it will confuse suid root applications.
While I was pushing kuid_t and kgid_t changes deep into the audit code
I made a few other cleanups. I capitalized on the fact we process
netlink messages in the context of the message sender. I removed
usage of NETLINK_CRED, and started directly using current->tty.
Some of these patches have also made it into maintainer trees, with no
problems from identical code from different trees showing up in
linux-next.
After reading through all of this code I feel like I might be able to
win a game of kernel trivial pursuit."

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.
