Amit Shah 3eae0adea9 virtio: console: Send SIGIO to processes that request it for host events
A process can request for SIGIO on host connect / disconnect events
using the O_ASYNC file flag using fcntl().

If that's requested, and if the guest-side connection for the port is
open, any host-side open/close events for that port will raise a SIGIO.
The process can then use poll() within the signal handler to find out
which port triggered the signal.

Amit Shah e062013c7d virtio: console: Reference counting portdev structs is not needed
Explain in a comment why there's no need to reference-count the portdev
struct: when a device is yanked out, we can't do anything more with it
anyway so just give up doing anything more with the data or the vqs and
exit cleanly.

Amit Shah b353a6b821 virtio: console: Add reference counting for port struct
When a port got hot-unplugged, when a port was open, any file operation
after the unplugging resulted in a crash. This is fixed by ref-counting
the port structure, and releasing it only when the file is closed.

This splits the unplug operation in two parts: first marks the port
as unavailable, removes all the buffers in the vqs and removes the port
from the per-device list of ports. The second stage, invoked when all
references drop to zero, releases the chardev and frees all other memory.

Amit Shah 531295e63b virtio: console: Don't block entire guest if host doesn't read data
If the host is slow in reading data or doesn't read data at all,
blocking write calls not only blocked the program that called write()
but the entire guest itself.

To overcome this, let's not block till the host signals it has given
back the virtio ring element we passed it.  Instead, send the buffer to
the host and return to userspace.  This operation then becomes similar
to how non-blocking writes work, so let's use the existing code for this
path as well.

This code change also ensures blocking write calls do get blocked if
there's not enough room in the virtio ring as well as they don't return
-EAGAIN to userspace.

Hans de Goede 6df7aadcd9 virtio: console: Fix poll blocking even though there is data to read
I found this while working on a Linux agent for spice, the symptom I was
seeing was select blocking on the spice vdagent virtio serial port even
though there were messages queued up there.

virtio_console's port_fops_poll checks port->inbuf != NULL to determine
if read won't block. However if an application reads enough bytes from
inbuf through port_fops_read, to empty the current port->inbuf,
port->inbuf will be NULL even though there may be buffers left in the
virtqueue.

This causes poll() to block even though there is data to be read,
this patch fixes this by using will_read_block(port) instead of the
port->inbuf != NULL check.

Julia Lawall 0643e4c6e4 drivers/char: Eliminate use after free
In each case, the first argument to send_control_msg or __send_control_msg,
respectively, has either not been successfully allocated or has been freed
at the point of the call.  In the first case, the first argument, port, is
only used to access the portdev and id fields, in order to call
__send_control_msg.  Thus it seems possible instead to call
__send_control_msg directly.  In the second case, the call to
__send_control_msg is moved up to a place where it seems like the first
argument, portdev, has been initialized sufficiently to make the call to
__send_control_msg meaningful.

This has only been compile tested.

With support for multiple consoles, just using one {rows,cols} pair in

Store each console's size as part of the console struct.

This changes the behaviour for one case when multiport is not enabled:

of the last config-space update instead of fetching it afresh from the
config space.

Also add a helper to update the size in the console struct as we'll need

multiport support is enabled.

Instead of the host and guest independently enumerating ports, switch to
a control message to add ports where the host supplies the port number
so there's no ambiguity or a possibility of a race between the host and

We now no longer need the 'nr_ports' config value. Since no kernel has
been released with the MULTIPORT changes yet, we have a chance to fiddle
with the config space without adding compatibility features.

This is beneficial for management software, which would now be able to
instantiate ports at known locations and avoid problems that arise with
implicit numbering in the host and the guest. This removes the 'guessing
game' part of it, and management software can now actually indicate
which id to spawn a particular port on.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

udev wakes up and acts on the rules for virtio-ports (currently there's
only one rule that creates a symlink from the 'name' to the actual char
device).

This commit adds a new feature, MULTIPORT. If the host supports this
feature as well, the config space has the number of ports defined for
that device. New ports are spawned according to this information.

The config space also has the maximum number of ports that can be
spawned for a particular device. This is useful in initializing the
appropriate number of virtqueues in advance, as ports might be
hot-plugged in later.

Using this feature, generic ports can be created which are not tied to
hvc consoles.

We also open up a private channel between the host and the guest via
which some "control" messages are exchanged for the ports, like whether
the port being spawned is a console port, resizing the console window,
etc.

Next commits will add support for hotplugging and presenting char
devices in /dev/ for bi-directional guest-host communication.

Rusty,

commit 3ca4f5ca73
    virtio: add virtio IDs file
moved all device IDs into a single file. While the change itself is
a very good one, it can break userspace applications. For example
if a userspace tool wanted to get the ID of virtio_net it used to
include virtio_net.h. This does no longer work, since virtio_net.h
does not include virtio_ids.h.
This patch moves all "#include <linux/virtio_ids.h>" from the C
files into the header files, making the header files compatible with
the old ones.

In addition, this patch exports virtio_ids.h to userspace.
