Johannes Berg 59ae1d127a networking: introduce and use skb_put_data()
A common pattern with skb_put() is to just want to memcpy()
some data into the new space, introduce skb_put_data() for
this.

An spatch similar to the one for skb_put_zero() converts many
of the places using it:

    @@
    identifier p, p2;
    expression len, skb, data;
    type t, t2;
    @@
    (
    -p = skb_put(skb, len);
    +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, len);
    |
    -p = (t)skb_put(skb, len);
    +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, len);
    )
    (
    p2 = (t2)p;
    -memcpy(p2, data, len);
    |
    -memcpy(p, data, len);
    )

    @@
    type t, t2;
    identifier p, p2;

Geert Uytterhoeven 4360fa22ad drivers: misc: ti-st: Use int instead of fuzzy char for callback status
On mips and parisc:

    drivers/bluetooth/btwilink.c: In function 'ti_st_open':
    drivers/bluetooth/btwilink.c:174:21: warning: overflow in implicit constant conversion [-Woverflow]
       hst->reg_status = -EINPROGRESS;

    drivers/nfc/nfcwilink.c: In function 'nfcwilink_open':
    drivers/nfc/nfcwilink.c:396:31: warning: overflow in implicit constant conversion [-Woverflow]
      drv->st_register_cb_status = -EINPROGRESS;

There are actually two issues:
  1. Whether "char" is signed or unsigned depends on the architecture.
     As the completion callback data is used to pass a (negative) error
     code, it should always be signed.
  2. EINPROGRESS is 150 on mips, 245 on parisc.
     Hence -EINPROGRESS doesn't fit in a signed 8-bit number.

Change the callback status from "char" to "int" to fix these.

Oleksandr Kozaruk 3a2d3d213d drivers: misc: ti-st: fix potential race if st_kim_start fails
If st_kim_start() fails registered protocols should be removed. This is
done by calling st_reg_complete(), which as comment states is called
with spin lock held. But in st_register() when st_kim_start fails it
is called without holding spin lock, creating possibility of concurrent
access to st_gdata data members.
Hold spin lock while calling st_reg_complete if st_kim_start() fails.

channing 25c22d5bea misc: st_core: Error triggered by convert "char" to "int"
When st driver decodes protocol index received from raw data,
it does a value convert from "char" to "int". Because it's sign
extension from bit8 to bit32, the "int" value maybe minus, in
another word, the protocol index might be minus, but driver doesn't
filter such case and may continue access memory pointed by this
minus index.

This patch is to change the variable type of index from "int"
to "unsigned char", so that it avoids do such kind of type
conversion.

Concurrent access to UART2/combo-interface by multiple protocol drivers such
as BT, FM and GPS caused issues during firmware download failure cases or
cases when the firmware download took longer than usual.

This was because of un-safe access to protos_registered & st_states.
Protecting this will also make the registration complete callback un-safe for

Previously the private data of each protocol registered to use ST was
used to determine whether the protocol was registered to use shared

Linus Torvalds 55db4c64ed Revert "tty: make receive_buf() return the amout of bytes received"
This reverts commit b1c43f82c5.

It was broken in so many ways, and results in random odd pty issues.

It re-introduced the buggy schedule_work() in flush_to_ldisc() that can
cause endless work-loops (see commit a5660b41af6a: "tty: fix endless
work loop when the buffer fills up").

It also used an "unsigned int" return value fo the ->receive_buf()
function, but then made multiple functions return a negative error code,
and didn't actually check for the error in the caller.

And it didn't actually work at all.  BenH bisected down odd tty behavior
to it:
  "It looks like the patch is causing some major malfunctions of the X
   server for me, possibly related to PTYs.  For example, cat'ing a
   large file in a gnome terminal hangs the kernel for -minutes- in a
   loop of what looks like flush_to_ldisc/workqueue code, (some ftrace
   data in the quoted bits further down).

   ...

   Some more data: It -looks- like what happens is that the
   flush_to_ldisc work queue entry constantly re-queues itself (because
   the PTY is full ?) and the workqueue thread will basically loop
   forver calling it without ever scheduling, thus starving the consumer
   process that could have emptied the PTY."

which is pretty much exactly the problem we fixed in a5660b41af.

Milton Miller pointed out the 'unsigned int' issue.

Pavan Savoy 764b0c4b32 drivers:misc:ti-st: handle delayed tty receive
When certain technologies shutdown their interface without waiting for
the acknowledgement from the chip. The receive_buf from the TTY would be
invoked a while after the relevant technology is unregistered.

This patch introduces a new flag "is_registered" which maintains the
state of protocols BT, FM or GPS and thereby removes the need to clear
the protocol data from ST when protocols gets unregistered.

This fixes corner cases when HCI RESET is sent down from bluetooth stack
and the receive_buf is called from tty after 250ms before which
bluetooth would have unregistered from the system.
OR - when FM application decides to close down the device without
sending a power-off FM command resulting in some RDS data or interrupt
data coming in after the driver is unregistered.

entries for each of the protocol gpio that the chip would have.
However now in case such gpios exist, which requires to be enabled
for a specific protocol, the responsibility lay on protocol driver.
This patch removes the request/free of multiple gpios, rfkill struct
references and also removes the chip_toggle function.

Pavan Savoy 6d71ba2105 drivers:misc: ti-st: fix hci-ll on wake_ind collision
Where file-transfer stops/pauses in between, is
result of a HCI-LL anamoly in ST LL driver.
ST LL did not copy the contents of WaitQ into the TxQ, when a WAKEUP_IND
collision happened.
Make also sure, that the copying mechanism is safe, by wrapping it around
spin locks inside st_int_recv().
This was easily reproduced when the sleep timeout was reduced to 100ms
for HCI-LL.

Pavan Savoy ef04d121f0 drivers:misc: ti-st: firmware download optimization
To fasten the process of firmware download, the chip allows
disabling of the command complete event generation from host.
In these cases, only few very essential commands would have
the command complete events and hence the wait associated with
them.

So now the driver would wait for a command complete event, only
when it comes across a wait event during firmware parsing.
This would also mean we need to skip not just the change baud
rate command but also the wait for it.

Pavan Savoy 704426649d drivers:misc: ti-st: fix error codes
set-right the error codes that the shared transport driver
returns.
Instead of magic numbers like -1, return relevant codes such as
ETIMEDOUT or EIO, EAGAIN when wait times out or uart write bytes don't
match expected value or when registration fails and needs to be
attempted again.

Pavan Savoy 5c88b02196 drivers:misc: ti-st: register with channel IDs
The architecture of shared transport had begun with individual
protocols like bluetooth, fm and gps telling the shared transport
what sort of protocol they are and then expecting the ST driver
to parse the incoming data from chip and forward data only
relevant to the protocol drivers.

This change would mean each protocol drivers would also send
information to ST driver as to how to intrepret their protocol
data coming out of the chip.

Pavan Savoy 73f12e8d3d drivers: misc: ti-st: fix review comments
Based on comments from Jiri Slaby, drop the register
storage specifier, remove the unused code, cleanup
the const to non-const type casting.
Also make the line discipline ops structure static, since
its a singleton, unmodified structure which need not be
in heap.

Pavan Savoy a0cc2f3b51 staging: ti-st: move TI_ST from staging to misc/
move the 3 source files st_core.c, st_kim.c and st_ll.c
from staging to drivers/misc/.

Texas Instrument's WiLink 7 chipset packs wireless technologies like
Bluetooth, FM, GPS and WLAN into a single die.
Among these the Bluetooth, FM Rx/Tx and GPS are interfaced to a apps processor
over a single UART.

This line discipline driver allows various protocol drivers such as Bluetooth
BlueZ driver, FM V4L2 driver and GPS simple character device driver
to communicate with its relevant core in the chip.

Each protocol or technologies use a logical channel to communicate with chip.
Bluetooth uses the HCI-H4 [channels 1-4], FM uses a CH-8 and
GPS a CH-9 protocol. The driver also constitutes the TI HCI-LL Power
Management protocol which use channels 30-33.
