ef4cbee0b0 [PATCH] hvc_console: start kernel thread before registering tty
Its possible that we can write to the hvc_console tty as soon it is
registered.  Recently this started happening due to (what looks like) a
change to the hotplug code.

Unfortunately at this stage we have not started the khvcd kernel thread and
oops.  The solution is to start the kernel thread before registering the
tty.

b4cc4aa24c [WATCHDOG] w83977f-watchdog-driver.patch
In a project for my company I've needed to use the watchdog device in a
PCM-5335 SBC from AAEON.  The watchdog timer is from a Winbond's SuperIO
chip, the W83977F.

I've made this driver based on two others already on the kernel tree,
the w83877f_wdt and the wdt977.

cc90ef0f9b [WATCHDOG] i6300esb.patch
I wrote earlier to the list[1] asking for a driver for the watchdog
included in the 6300ESB chipset.  I got a 2.4 driver via private email
from Ross Biro which I've changed into what I hope resembles a 2.6
driver (which was done by looking a lot at the watchdog drivers
already in the 2.6 tree).

I've attached the result, and I'm hoping to get some feedback on the
coding as a first step.  I can't actually test it on the hardware
right now as I won't have physical access until April. So my own tests
have been limited to "compiles-without-warnings" and
"can-be-insmodded-in-other-machine-without-oops".

3b41dc1a3c [PATCH] console: Fix buffer copy on vc resize
On a vc resize, the contents of the old screen buffer are transferred to the
new screenbuffer.  If the new screenbuffer is smaller than the old one, only
the contents from the bottom are copied to new.  If the contents of the old
buffer are located at the top, then the contents will not be copied to the new
buffer resulting in a blank screen.

This bug will happen only if the vc in question is not in the foreground.
Doing an fbset -a or con2fbmap will trigger this bug.

To fix this problem, base the start of the copy from the location of the
current cursor.  If the cursor is near the top of the buffer, copy the
contents at the top, and if the cursor is near the bottom of the buffer, then
copy the contents at the bottom.  In the unlikely case where the new row size
is greater than 2x smaller than the old one, and the cursor is in the middle,
copy 1/2 screenful from the top and bottom of the cursor position.

ff55fe2075 [PATCH] pty_chars_in_buffer oops fix
The idea of this patch is to lock both sides of a ptmx/pty pair during line
discipline changing.  This is needed to ensure that say a poll on one side of
the pty doesn't occur while the line discipline is actively being changed.
This resulted in an oops reported on lkml, see:

	http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=111342171410005&w=2

A 'hacky' approach was previously implmemented which served to eliminate the
poll vs.  line discipline changing race.  However, this patch takes a more
general approach to the issue.  The patch only adds locking on a less often
used path, the line-discipline changing path, as opposed to locking the
ptmx/pty pair on read/write/poll paths.

The patch below, takes both ldisc locks in either order b/c the locks are both
taken under the same spinlock().  I thought about locking the ptmx/pty
separately, such as master always first but that introduces a 3 way deadlock.
For example, process 1 does a blocking read on the slave side.  Then, process
2 does an ldisc change on the slave side, which acquires the master ldisc lock
but not the slave's.  Finally, process 3 does a write which blocks on the
process 2's ldisc reference.

This patch does introduce some changes in semantics.  For example, a line
discipline change on side 'a' of a ptmx/pty pair, will now wait for a
read/write to complete on the other side, or side 'b'.  The current behavior
is to simply wait for any read/writes on only side 'a', not both sides 'a' and
'b'.  I think this behavior makes sense, but I wanted to point it out.

I've tested the patch with a bunch of read/write/poll while changing the line
discipline out from underneath.

This patch obviates the need for the above "hide the problem" patch.
