* tty,vcs removing con_buf/conf_buf_mtxJiri Olsa2011-02-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | seems there's no longer need for using con_buf/conf_buf_mtx as vcs_read/vcs_write buffer for user's data. The do_con_write function, that was the other user of this, is currently using its own kmalloc-ed buffer. Not sure when this got changed, as I was able to find this code in 2.6.9, but it's already gone as far as current git history goes - 2.6.12-rc2. AFAICS there's a behaviour change with the current change. The lseek is not completely mutually exclusive with the vcs_read/vcs_write - the file->f_pos might get updated via lseek callback during the vcs_read/vcs_write processing. I tried to find out if the prefered behaviour is to keep this in sync within read/write/lseek functions, but I did not find any pattern on different places. I guess if user end up calling write/lseek from different threads she should know what she's doing. If needed we could use dedicated fd mutex/buffer.

* vt/console: try harder to print output when panicingJesse Barnes2010-08-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Jesse's initial patch commit said: "At panic time (i.e. when oops_in_progress is set) we should try a bit harder to update the screen and make sure output gets to the VT, since some drivers are capable of flipping back to it. So make sure we try to unblank and update the display if called from a panic context." I've enhanced this to add a flag to the vc that console layer can set to indicate they want this behaviour to occur. This also adds support to fbcon for that flag and adds an fb flag for drivers to indicate they want to use the support. It enables this for KMS drivers.

Also build the interface so that unlike VT_WAITACTIVE and friends it won't miss events. FIXME: Should this be a waitactive ioctl or a new device file you can poll and read events from.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow fbcon to select the primary display adapter using the fb_is_primary_device() arch-specific helper. If a a primary adapter is detected, fbcon will unbind the old adapter from the VT layer, then rebind using the new adapter. This requires that bind_/unbind_con_driver() be made public.

* [PATCH] vt: rework the console spawning variablesEric W. Biederman2006-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is such a rare path it took me a while to figure out how to test this after soring out the locking. This patch does several things. - The variables used are moved into a structure and declared in vt_kern.h - A spinlock is added so we don't have SMP races updating the values. - Instead of raw pid_t value a struct_pid is used to guard against pid wrap around issues, if the daemon to spawn a new console dies.

* [PATCH] tty locking on resizeAlan Cox2006-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current kernel serializes console resizes but does not serialize the resize against the tty structure updates. This means that while two parallel resizes cannot mess up the console you can get incorrect results reported. Secondly while doing this I added vc_lock_resize() to lock and resize the console. This leaves all knowledge of the console_sem in the vt/console driver and kicks it out of the tty layer, which is good Thirdly while doing this I decided I couldn't stand "disallocate" any longer so I switched it to "deallocate".

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
