* sysrq: more explicit, less terse help messagesRandy Dunlap2009-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Eliminate sysrq terse help mode; make sysrq help messages more meaningful (more explicit/verbose). Make the sysrq action letter clearer by listing it explicitly in more sysrq help messages (when it is not simple/clear). The SysRq help message now looks like this: SysRq : HELP : loglevel(0-9) reBoot terminate-all-tasks(E) memory-full-oom-kill(F) kill-all-tasks(I) saK show-backtrace-all-active-cpus(L) show-memory-usage(M) nice-all-RT-tasks(N) powerOff show-registers(P) show-all-timers(Q) unRaw Sync show-task-states(T) Unmount show-blocked-tasks(W) Addresses http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=330403.

| * i8k: Add Dell Vostro systemsFederico Heinz2009-01-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This trivial patch adds support for i8k on the new Dell Vostro models. I tested it on my Vostro 1400, and it works. It does print a warning when loading the module: i8k: unable to get SMM BIOS version But I couldn't figure out how to fix that. The module seems to work fine, anyway...

* | n_tty: Output bells immediately on a full bufferJoe Peterson2009-01-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch causes "bell" (^G) characters (invoked when the input buffer is full) to be immediately output rather than filling the echo buffer. This is especially a problem when the tty is stopped and buffers fill, since the bells do not serve their purpose of immediate notification that the buffer cannot take further input, and they will flush all at once when the tty is restarted.

* | n_tty: Fix hanfling of buffer full corner casesJoe Peterson2009-01-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix the handling of input characters when the tty buffer is full or nearly full. This includes tests that are done in n_tty_receive_char() and handling of PARMRK. Problems with the buffer-full tests done in receive_char() caused characters to be lost at times when the buffer(s) filled. Also, these full conditions would often only be detected with echo on, and PARMRK was not accounted for properly in all cases. One symptom of these problems, in addition to lost characters, was early termination from unix commands like tr and cat when ^Q was used to break from a stopped tty with full buffers (note that breaking out was often previously not possible, due to the pty getting in "gridlock", which will be addressed in another patch). Note space is always reserved at the end of the buffer for a newline (or EOF/EOL) in canonical mode.

* | n_tty: Fix loss of echoed characters and remove bkl from n_ttyJoe Peterson2009-01-02
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes the loss of echoed (and other ldisc-generated characters) when the tty is stopped or when the driver output buffer is full (happens frequently for input during continuous program output, such as ^C) and removes the Big Kernel Lock from the N_TTY line discipline. Adds an "echo buffer" to the N_TTY line discipline that handles all ldisc-generated output (including echoed characters). Along with the loss of characters, this also fixes the associated loss of sync between tty output and the ldisc state when characters cannot be immediately written to the tty driver. The echo buffer stores (in addition to characters) state operations that need to be done at the time of character output (like management of the column position). This allows echo to cooperate correctly with program output, since the ldisc state remains consistent with actual characters written. Since the echo buffer code now isolates the tty column state code to the process_out* and process_echoes functions, we can remove the Big Kernel Lock (BKL) and replace it with mutex locks. Highlights are: * Handles echo (and other ldisc output) when tty driver buffer is full - continuous program output can block echo * Saves echo when tty is in stopped state (e.g. ^S) - (e.g.: ^Q will correctly cause held characters to be released for output) * Control character pairs (e.g. "^C") are treated atomically and not split up by interleaved program output * Line discipline state is kept consistent with characters sent to the tty driver * Remove the big kernel lock (BKL) from N_TTY line discipline Signed-off-by: Joe Peterson <joe@skyrush.com> Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

| * virtio_console: support console resizingChristian Borntraeger2008-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | this patch uses the new hvc callback hvc_resize to set the window size which allows to change the tty size of hvc_console via a hvc_resize function. I have added a new feature bit VIRTIO_CONSOLE_F_SIZE. The driver will change the window size on tty open and via the config_changed callback of the transport. Currently lguest and kvm_s390 have not implemented this callback, but the callback can be implemented at a later point in time.
