Number of lines 'nr' is accepted as int, but all callers pass down unsigned too. So change the type of 'nr' to unsigned too. Now, promote unsigned int from the helpers up to the con_scroll hook which actually accepted all those as signed int. Next, the 'dir' parameter can have only two values and we define constants for that: SM_UP and SM_DOWN. Switch them to enum and do proper type checking on 'dir' too. Finally, document the behaviour of the hook. Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz> Cc: Thomas Winischhofer <thomas@winischhofer.net> Cc: Tomi Valkeinen <tomi.valkeinen@ti.com> Cc: "James E.J.

It was declaring the same device names and numbers as 8250 driver. As a result, it was impossible to use 8250 driver on PXA SoCs. Upon closer examination pxa2xx-uart turned out to be a clone of 8250_core driver. Workaround for Erratum #19 according to Marvel(R) PXA270M Processor Specification Update (April 19, 2010) is dropped. 8250_core reads from FIFO immediately after checking DR bit in LSR. The patch leaves the original SERIAL_PXA driver around. The original driver is just marked DEPRECATED in Kconfig and C source. When the original driver is considered safe to remove, no changes to SERIAL_8250 will be necessary. Compiling SERIAL_8250_CONSOLE and SERIAL_PXA_CONSOLE even without SERIAL_8250_PXA breaks console for SERIAL_PXA. For this reasons, the new and the original drivers are made mutually exclusive.

Lets remove the couple traces of modular infrastructure use, so that when reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only.

| * | | tty: serial_core: Fix serial console crash on port shutdownGeert Uytterhoeven2016-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The port->console flag is always false, as uart_console() is called before the serial console has been registered. Hence for a serial port used as the console, uart_tty_port_shutdown() will still be called when userspace closes the port, powering it down. This may lead to a system lock up when the serial console driver writes to the serial port's registers. To fix this, move the setting of port->console after the call to uart_configure_port(), which registers the serial console.

| * | | tty/serial: at91: fix hardware handshake on Atmel platformsRichard Genoud2016-10-28

To understand why, one has to understand the flag ATMEL_US_USMODE_HWHS first: Before commit 1cf6e8fc8341 ("tty/serial: at91: fix RTS line management when hardware handshake is enabled"), this flag was never set. Thus, the CTS/RTS where only handled by serial_core (and everything worked just fine). This commit introduced the use of the ATMEL_US_USMODE_HWHS flag, enabling it for all boards when the user space enables flow control. When the ATMEL_US_USMODE_HWHS is set, the Atmel USART controller handles a part of the flow control job: - disable the transmitter when the CTS pin gets high. - drive the RTS pin high when the DMA buffer transfer is completed or PDC RX buffer full or RX FIFO is beyond threshold. (depending on the controller version). NB: This feature is *not* mandatory for the flow control to work. (Nevertheless, it's very useful if low latencies are needed.) Now, the specifics of the ATMEL_US_USMODE_HWHS flag: - For platforms with DMAC and no FIFOs (sam9x25, sam9x35, sama5D3, sama5D4, sam9g15, sam9g25, sam9g35)* this feature simply doesn't work. ( source: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/9/7/598 ) Tested it on sam9g35, the RTS pins always stays up, even when RXEN=1 or a new DMA transfer descriptor is set. => ATMEL_US_USMODE_HWHS must not be used for those platforms - For platforms with a PDC (sam926{0,1,3}, sam9g10, sam9g20, sam9g45, sam9g46)*, there's another kind of problem. Once the flag ATMEL_US_USMODE_HWHS is set, the RTS pin can't be driven anymore via RTSEN/RTSDIS in USART Control Register. The RTS pin can only be driven by enabling/disabling the receiver or setting RCR=RNCR=0 in the PDC (Receive (Next) Counter Register). => Doing this is beyond the scope of this patch and could add other bugs, so the original (and working) behaviour should be set for those platforms (meaning ATMEL_US_USMODE_HWHS flag should be unset). - For platforms with a FIFO (sama5d2)*, the RTS pin is driven according to the RX FIFO thresholds, and can be also driven by RTSEN/RTSDIS in USART Control Register. No problem here. (This was the use case of commit 1cf6e8fc8341 ("tty/serial: at91: fix RTS line management when hardware handshake is enabled")) NB: If the CTS pin declared as a GPIO in the DTS, (for instance cts-gpios = <&pioA PIN_PB31 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>), the transmitter will be disabled. => ATMEL_US_USMODE_HWHS flag can be set for this platform ONLY IF the CTS pin is not a GPIO. So, the only case when ATMEL_US_USMODE_HWHS can be enabled is when (atmel_use_fifo(port) && !mctrl_gpio_to_gpiod(atmel_port->gpios, UART_GPIO_CTS)) Tested on all Atmel USART controller flavours: AT91SAM9G35-CM (DMAC flavour), AT91SAM9G20-EK (PDC flavour), SAMA5D2xplained (FIFO flavour). * the list may not be exhaustive Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> #4.4+ (beware, missing atmel_port variable) Fixes: 1cf6e8fc8341 ("tty/serial: at91: fix RTS line management when hardware handshake is enabled") Signed-off-by: Richard Genoud <richard.genoud@gmail.com> Acked-by: Alexandre Belloni <alexandre.belloni@free-electrons.com> Acked-by: Cyrille Pitchen <cyrille.pitchen@atmel.com> Acked-by: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de> Acked-by: Nicolas Ferre <nicolas.ferre@atmel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

The kthread worker API is a mix of classic kthreads and workqueues. Each worker has a dedicated kthread. It runs a generic function that process queued works. It is implemented as part of the kthread subsystem. This patch renames the existing kthread worker API to use the corresponding name from the workqueues API prefixed by kthread_: __init_kthread_worker() -> __kthread_init_worker() init_kthread_worker() -> kthread_init_worker() init_kthread_work() -> kthread_init_work() insert_kthread_work() -> kthread_insert_work() queue_kthread_work() -> kthread_queue_work() flush_kthread_work() -> kthread_flush_work() flush_kthread_worker() -> kthread_flush_worker() Note that the names of DEFINE_KTHREAD_WORK*() macros stay as they are. It is common that the "DEFINE_" prefix has precedence over the subsystem names. Note that INIT() macros and init() functions use different naming scheme. There is no good solution. There are several reasons for this solution: + "init" in the function names stands for the verb "initialize" aka "initialize worker". While "INIT" in the macro names stands for the noun "INITIALIZER" aka "worker initializer". + INIT() macros are used only in DEFINE() macros + init() functions are used close to the other kthread() functions. It looks much better if all the functions use the same scheme. + There will be also kthread_destroy_worker() that will be used close to kthread_cancel_work(). It is related to the init() function. Again it looks better if all functions use the same naming scheme. + there are several precedents for such init() function names, e.g. amd_iommu_init_device(), free_area_init_node(), jump_label_init_type(), regmap_init_mmio_clk(), + It is not an argument but it was inconsistent even before.

The line continuation handling has been broken basically forever, and the code to handle the system log records was both confusing and dubious. And it would do entirely the wrong thing unless you always had a terminating newline, partly because it couldn't actually see whether a message was marked KERN_CONT or not (but partly because the LOG_CONT handling in the recording code was rather confusing too). This re-introduces a real semantically meaningful KERN_CONT, and fixes the few places I noticed where it was missing. There are probably more missing cases, since KERN_CONT hasn't actually had any semantic meaning for at least four years (other than the checkpatch meaning of "no log level necessary, this is a continuation line"). This also allows the combination of KERN_CONT and a log level. In that case the log level will be ignored if the merging with a previous line is successful, but if a new record is needed, that new record will now get the right log level. That also means that you can at least in theory combine KERN_CONT with the "pr_info()" style helpers, although any use of pr_fmt() prefixing would make that just result in a mess, of course (the prefix would end up in the middle of a continuing line). * printk-cleanups: printk: make reading the kernel log flush pending lines printk: re-organize log_output() to be more legible printk: split out core logging code into helper function printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation lines
| * | printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation linesLinus Torvalds2016-10-09

It supported log levels by scanning the stream and noticing the log level markers at the beginning of each line, but if you wanted to print a partial line in multiple chunks, you just did multiple printk() calls, and it just automatically worked. Except when it didn't, and you had very confusing output when different lines got all mixed up with each other. Then you got fragment lines mixing with each other, or with non-fragment lines, because it was traditionally impossible to tell whether a printk() call was a continuation or not. To at least help clarify the issue of continuation lines, we added a KERN_CONT marker back in 2007 to mark continuation lines: 474925277671 ("printk: add KERN_CONT annotation"). That continuation marker was initially an empty string, and didn't actuall make any semantic difference. But it at least made it possible to annotate the source code, and have check-patch notice that a printk() didn't need or want a log level marker, because it was a continuation of a previous line. To avoid the ambiguity between a continuation line that had that KERN_CONT marker, and a printk with no level information at all, we then in 2009 made KERN_CONT be a real log level marker which meant that we could now reliably tell the difference between the two cases. 5fd29d6ccbc9 ("printk: clean up handling of log-levels and newlines") and we could take advantage of that to make sure we didn't mix up continuation lines with lines that just didn't have any loglevel at all. Then, in 2012, the kernel log buffer was changed to be a "record" based log, where each line was a record that has a loglevel and a timestamp. You can see the beginning of that conversion in commits e11fea92e13f ("kmsg: export printk records to the /dev/kmsg interface") 7ff9554bb578 ("printk: convert byte-buffer to variable-length record buffer") with a number of follow-up commits to fix some painful fallout from that conversion. Over all, it took a couple of months to sort out most of it. But the upside was that you could have concurrent readers (and writers) of the kernel log and not have lines with mixed output in them. And one particular pain-point for the record-based kernel logging was exactly the fragmentary lines that are generated in smaller chunks. In order to still log them as one recrod, the continuation lines need to be attached to the previous record properly. However the explicit continuation record marker that is actually useful for this exact case was actually removed in aroundm the same time by commit 61e99ab8e35a ("printk: remove the now unnecessary "C" annotation for KERN_CONT") due to the incorrect belief that KERN_CONT wasn't meaningful. The ambiguity between "is this a continuation line" or "is this a plain printk with no log level information" was reintroduced, and in fact became an even bigger pain point because there was now the whole record-level merging of kernel messages going on. This patch reinstates the KERN_CONT as a real non-empty string marker, so that the ambiguity is fixed once again. But it's not a plain revert of that original removal: in the four years since we made KERN_CONT an empty string again, not only has the format of the log level markers changed, we've also had some usage changes in this area. For example, some ACPI code seems to use KERN_CONT _together_ with a log level, and now uses both the KERN_CONT marker and (for example) a KERN_INFO marker to show that it's an informational continuation of a line. Which is actually not a bad idea - if the continuation line cannot be attached to its predecessor, without the log level information we don't know what log level to assign to it (and we traditionally just assigned it the default loglevel). So having both a log level and the KERN_CONT marker is not necessarily a bad idea, but it does mean that we need to actually iterate over potentially multiple markers, rather than just a single one. Also, since KERN_CONT was still conceptually needed, and encouraged, but didn't actually _do_ anything, we've also had the reverse problem: rather than having too many annotations it has too few, and there is bit rot with code that no longer marks the continuation lines with the KERN_CONT marker. So this patch not only re-instates the non-empty KERN_CONT marker, it also fixes up the cases of bit-rot I noticed in my own logs. There are probably other cases where KERN_CONT will be needed to be added, either because it is new code that never dealt with the need for KERN_CONT, or old code that has bitrotted without anybody noticing. That said, we should strive to avoid the need for KERN_CONT. It does result in real problems for logging, and should generally not be seen as a good feature. If we some day can get rid of the feature entirely, because nobody does any fragmented printk calls, that would be lovely. But until that point, let's at mark the code that relies on the hacky multi-fragment kernel printk's. Not only does it avoid the ambiguity, it also annotates code as "maybe this would be good to fix some day". (That said, particularly during single-threaded bootup, the downsides of KERN_CONT are very limited. Things get much hairier when you have multiple threads going on and user level reading and writing logs too). Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
