* virtio: console: use vdev->priv to avoid accessing global var.Rusty Russell2010-02-23
| | | | | | | | | Part of removing our "one console" assumptions, use vdev->priv to point to the port (currently == the global console). Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

However, the TPM framework does not return and the system hangs upon suspend. When sending the necessary command "TPM_SaveState" directly within the driver, suspending and resuming works fine.

* | Fix race in tty_fasync() properlyLinus Torvalds2010-02-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 703625118069 ("tty: fix race in tty_fasync") and commit b04da8bfdfbb ("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 703625118069 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.

So when GART IOMMU isn't detected, agp_amd64_init isn't called. Marin Mitov reported this issue: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=126192729110083&w=2 With this patch, agp_amd64_init() is always called via module_init (the above ifndef is removed). If agp_amd64_init() is called via gart_iommu_init() earlier, agp_amd64_init() finishes without doing anything (when it is called via module_init).

* | | kfifo: move struct kfifo in placeStefani Seibold2009-12-22

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.
