* hvc_console: Escape magic sysrq keyHendrik Brueckner2008-12-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ctrl-o (^O) is a common control key used by several applications, such as vim, but hvc_console uses ^O as the magic-sysrq key. This commit allows users to send ^O to applications by pressing ^O twice in succession. To implement this, this commit introduces a check if ^O is pressed again if the sysrq_pressed variable is already set. In this case, clear sysrq_pressed state and flip the ^O character to the tty. (The old behavior has always set "sysrq_pressed" if ^O has been entered, and it has not flipped the ^O character to the tty.)

| * console ASCII glyph 1:1 mappingIngo Brueckl2008-12-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For the console, there is a 1:1 mapping of glyphs which cannot be found in the current font. This seems to be meant as a kind of 'emergency fallback' for fonts without unicode mapping which otherwise would display nothing readable on the screen. At the moment it affects all chars for which no substitution character is defined. In particular this means that for all chars (>= 128) where there is no iso88591-1/unicode character (e.g. control character area) you'll get the very strange 1:1 mapping of the (cp437) graphics card glyphs. I'm pretty sure that the 1:1 mapping should only affect strict ASCII code characters, i.e. chars < 128. The patch limits the mapping as it probably was meant anyway.

| * unicode table for cp437Ingo Brueckl2008-12-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a major bug in the cp437 to unicode translation table. Char 0x7c is mapped to U+00a5 which is the Yen sign and wrong. The right mapping is U+00a6 (broken bar). Furthermore, a mapping for U+00b4 (a widely used character) is missing even though easily possible. The patch fixes these, as well as it provides a few other useful mappings. The changes are as follows: 0x0f (enhancement) enables a sort of currency symbol 0x27 (bug) enables a sort of acute accent which is a widely used character 0x44 (enhancement) enables a sort of icelandic capital letter eth 0x7c (major bug) corrects mapping 0xeb (enhancement) enables a sort of icelandic small letter eth 0xee (enhancement) enables a sort of math 'element of' Signed-off-by: Ingo Brueckl <ib@wupperonline.de> Acked-by: H.

* | powerpc/BSR: Support multiple OF-node description of BSRSonny Rao2008-12-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds support for multiple BSR nodes in the OF device tree. Previously, the BSR driver only supported a single OF node describing a BSR. Apparently when an LPAR is set to use "all system resources" the BSR appears as a single node, but when it is handed out in pieces, each 8 byte piece gets its own node. So, this keeps a list of BSR devices instead of the array and includes all nodes. Also, this makes the code be more inclusive of what BSR devices we accept by only checking compatibility and not the device name property (which might change in the future versions of BSR).

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It turns out that if one registers a struct platform_device, the platform device code expects that platform_device.device->driver points to a struct driver inside a struct platform_driver. This is not the case with the ipmi-si, ipmi-msghandler and ibmaem drivers, which causes the suspend/resume hook functions to jump off into nowhere, causing a crash.

|/ / / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a new backend for the hvc console based on the low-level udbg callbacks. This effectively implements a working runtime console in terms of the simple udbg primitives. This is kind of a hack - since udbg isn't something you really want to be using routinely - but it's really useful during bringup. This can be used to quickly implement a userspace-usable console while you're working on a proper driver for whatever console I/O device the hardware has. Or, it can be used to avoid writing a full blown tty/console driver entirely for quick-and-dirty I/O hardware that will later be replaced by something else.

* | | hvc_console: Add support for tty window resizingHendrik Brueckner2008-10-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch provides the hvc_resize() function to update the terminal window dimensions (struct winsize) for a specified hvc console. The function stores the new window size and schedules a function that finally updates the tty winsize and signals the change to user space (SIGWINCH). Because the winsize update must acquire a mutex and might sleep, the function is scheduled instead of being called from hvc_poll() or khvcd. This patch uses the tty_do_resize() routine from the tty layer. A pending resize work is canceled in hvc_close() and hvc_hangup().

* | | hvc_console: Fix loop if put_char() returns 0Hendrik Brueckner2008-10-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If put_char() routine of a hvc console backend returns 0, then the hvc console starts looping in the following scenarios: 1. hvc_console_print() If put_char() returns 0 then the while loop may loop forever. I have added the missing check for 0 to throw away console messages. 2. khvcd may loop: The thread calls hvc_poll() --> hvc_push()... if there are still buffered data then the HVC_POLL_WRITE bit is set and causes the khvcd thread to loop (if yield() returns immediately). However, instead of looping, the khvcd thread could sleep for MIN_TIMEOUT (doing the same as for get_chars()). The MIN_TIMEOUT is set if hvc_push() was not able to write data to the backend. If data has been written, the timeout is set to 0 to immediately re-schedule hvc_poll().

* | | hvc_console: Add tty driver flag TTY_DRIVER_RESET_TERMIOSHendrik Brueckner2008-10-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After a tty hangup() or close() operation, processes might not reset the termio settings to a sane state. In order to reset the termios to its default settings the tty driver flag TTY_DRIVER_RESET_TERMIOS has been added. TTY driver flag description from include/linux/tty_driver.h: TTY_DRIVER_RESET_TERMIOS --- requests the tty layer to reset the termios setting when the last process has closed the device. Used for PTY's, in particular.

* | | hvc_console: Add a hangup notifier for backendsHendrik Brueckner2008-10-21
|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I have added a hangup notifier that can be used by hvc console backends to handle a tty hangup. The default irq hangup notifier calls the notifier_del_irq() for compatibility.
