Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The majority of this material spent some time in linux-next, some of
it even several weeks. There are a few relatively fresh commits in
it, but they are mostly fixes and simple cleanups.
ACPI took the lead this time, both in terms of the number of commits
and the number of modified lines of code, cpufreq follows and there
are a few changes in the PM core and in cpuidle too.
A new feature that already got some LWN.net's attention is the device
PM QoS extension allowing latency tolerance requirements to be
propagated from leaf devices to their ancestors with hardware
interfaces for specifying latency tolerance. That should help systems
with hardware-driven power management to avoid going too far with it
in cases when there are latency tolerance constraints.
There also are some significant changes in the ACPI core related to
the way in which hotplug notifications are handled. They affect PCI
hotplug (ACPIPHP) and the ACPI dock station code too. The bottom line
is that all those notification now go through the root notify handler
and are propagated to the interested subsystems by means of callbacks
instead of having to install a notify handler for each device object
that we can potentially get hotplug notifications for.
In addition to that ACPICA will now advertise "Windows 2013"
compatibility for _OSI, because some systems out there don't work
correctly if that is not done (some of them don't even boot).
On the system suspend side of things, all of the device suspend and
resume callbacks, except for ->prepare() and ->complete(), are now
going to be executed asynchronously as that turns out to speed up
system suspend and resume on some platforms quite significantly and we
have a few more optimizations in that area.
Apart from that, there are some new device IDs and fixes and cleanups
all over. In particular, the system suspend and resume handling by
cpufreq should be improved and the cpuidle menu governor should be a
bit more robust now.
Specifics:
- Device PM QoS support for latency tolerance constraints on systems
with hardware interfaces allowing such constraints to be specified.
That is necessary to prevent hardware-driven power management from
becoming overly aggressive on some systems and to prevent power
management features leading to excessive latencies from being used
in some cases.

When unbinding a serial driver that's being used as a serial console,
the kernel may crash with a NULL pointer dereference in a uart_*() function
called from uart_close () (e.g. uart_flush_buffer() or
uart_chars_in_buffer()).
To fix this, let uart_close() check for port->count == 0. If this is the
case, bail out early. Else tty_port_close_start() will make the port
counts inconsistent, printing out warnings like
tty_port_close_start: tty->count = 1 port count = 0.
and
tty_port_close_start: count = -1
and once uport == NULL, it will also crash.
Also fix the related crash in pr_debug() by checking for a non-NULL uport
first.
Detailed description:
On driver unbind, uart_remove_one_port() is called. Basically it;
- marks the port dead,
- calls tty_vhangup(),
- sets state->uart_port = NULL.
What will happen depends on whether the port is just in use by e.g. getty,
or was also opened as a console.
A. If the tty was not opened as a console:
- tty_vhangup() will (in __tty_hangup()):
- mark all file descriptors for this tty hung up by pointing them to
hung_up_tty_fops,
- call uart_hangup(), which sets port->count to 0.
- A subsequent uart_open() (this may be through /dev/ttyS*, or through
/dev/console if this is a serial console) will fail with -ENXIO as the
port was marked dead,
- uart_close() after the failed uart_open() will return early, as
tty_hung_up_p() (called from tty_port_close_start()) will notice it was
hung up.
B. If the tty was also opened as a console:
- tty_vhangup() will (in __tty_hangup()):
- mark non-console file descriptors for this tty hung up by pointing
them to hung_up_tty_fops,
- NOT call uart_hangup(), but instead call uart_close() for every
non-console file descriptor, so port->count will still have a
non-zero value afterwards.
- A subsequent uart_open() will fail with -ENXIO as the port was
marked dead,
- uart_close() after the failed uart_open() starts to misbehave:
- tty_hung_up_p() will not notice it was hung up,
- As port->count is non-zero, tty_port_close_start() will decrease
port->count, making the tty and port counts inconsistent. Later,
warnings like these will be printed:
tty_port_close_start: tty->count = 1 port count = 0.
and
tty_port_close_start: count = -1
- If all of this happens after state->uart_port was set to zero, a
NULL pointer dereference will happen.

In -RT the spin_lock_irqsave() does not spin but sleep if the lock is
taken. Before that, local_irq_save() is invoked which disables
interrupts even on -RT. Therefore local_irq_save() + spin_lock() does not
work.
In the ->sysrq and oops_in_progress case it is save to trylock the lock
i.e. this is what we do now anyway except for ->sysrq where we assume
that the lock is already taken.
The spin_lock_irqsave() grabs the lock and disables the interrupts on
vanilla (the same behavior) and on -RT it won't disable interrupts.

The 'active' sysfs attribute should refer to the currently active tty
devices the console is running on, not the currently active console. The
console structure doesn't refer to any device in sysfs, only the tty the
console is running on has. So we need to print out the tty names in
'active', not the console names.
There is one special-case, which is tty0. If the console is directed to
it, we want 'tty0' to show up in the file, so user-space knows that the
messages get forwarded to the active VT. The ->device() callback would
resolve tty0, though. Hence, treat it special and don't call into the VT
layer to resolve it (plymouth is known to depend on it).

The user-settable knob, low_latency, has been the source of
several BUG reports which stem from flush_to_ldisc() running
in interrupt context. Since 3.12, which added several sleeping
locks (termios_rwsem and buf->lock) to the input processing path,
the frequency of these BUG reports has increased.
Note that changes in 3.12 did not introduce this regression;
sleeping locks were first added to the input processing path
with the removal of the BKL from N_TTY in commit
a88a69c912,
'n_tty: Fix loss of echoed characters and remove bkl from n_tty'
and later in commit 38db89799b,
'tty: throttling race fix'. Since those changes, executing
flush_to_ldisc() in interrupt_context (ie, low_latency set), is unsafe.
However, since most devices do not validate if the low_latency
setting is appropriate for the context (process or interrupt) in
which they receive data, some reports are due to misconfiguration.
Further, serial dma devices for which dma fails, resort to
interrupt receiving as a backup without resetting low_latency.
Historically, low_latency was used to force wake-up the reading
process rather than wait for the next scheduler tick. The
effect was to trim multiple milliseconds of latency from
when the process would receive new data.
Recent tests [1] have shown that the reading process now receives
data with only 10's of microseconds latency without low_latency set.
Remove the low_latency rx steering from tty_flip_buffer_push();
however, leave the knob as an optional hint to drivers that can
tune their rx fifos and such like. Cleanup stale code comments
regarding low_latency.

These can be used to send commands consisting of an arbitrary string to the
terminal, most often used to set a terminal's window title or to redefine
the colour palette. Our console doesn't use OSC, unlike everything else,
which can lead to junk being displayed if a process sends such a code
unconditionally.
The rules for termination follow established practice rather than Ecma-48.
Ecma-48 requires the string to use only byte values 0x08..0x0D and
0x20..0x7E, terminated with either ESC \ or 0x9C. This would disallow using
8-bit characters, which are reasonable for example in window titles.
A widespread idiom is to terminate with 0x07. The behaviour for other
control characters differs between terminal emulators, I followed libvte and

Every couple of months, someone sends a patch to fix:
drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_core.c: In function 'serial_unlink_irq_chain':
drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_core.c:1712:2: warning: 'i' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]
and they in turn get a NACK for their efforts, and are told that
their compiler is broken. This has been going on since at least
the year 2008: https://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/24/433
Lets add a comment, so that subsequent patches don't get as far as
the maintainers or the mailing lists.

This reverts commit d8a5dc3033.
This breaks plymouth installs, either because plymouth is using the file
"incorrectly" or because the patch is incorrect. Either way, this needs
to be reverted until it is all figured out.

Commit 3e6c6f630a ("Delay creation of
khcvd thread") moved the call of hvc_init from being a device_initcall
into hvc_alloc, and used a non-null hvc_driver as indication of whether
hvc_init had already been called.
The problem with this is that hvc_driver is only assigned a value
at the bottom of hvc_init, and so there is a window where multiple
hvc_alloc calls can be in progress at the same time and hence try
and call hvc_init multiple times. Previously the use of device_init
guaranteed that hvc_init was only called once.
This manifests itself as sporadic instances of two hvc_init calls
racing each other, and with the loser of the race getting -EBUSY
from tty_register_driver() and hence that virtual console fails:
Couldn't register hvc console driver
virtio-ports vport0p1: error -16 allocating hvc for port
Here we add an atomic_t to guarantee we'll never run hvc_init twice.

instead of using sirf specific dma channel property like "sirf,uart-dma-rx-channel"
and "sirf,uart-dma-tx-channel", here we move to use generic dma dt-binding to get
the channel like:
- sirf,uart-dma-rx-channel = <21>;
- sirf,uart-dma-tx-channel = <2>;
+ dmas = <&dmac1 5>, <&dmac0 2>;
+ dma-names = "rx", "tx";
and we move dma_request_channel() to dma_request_slave_channel(), we don't need to
call sirfsoc dma filter function sirfsoc_dma_filter_id() again.

uart_register_driver call binds the driver to a specific device
node through tty_register_driver call. This should typically happen
during device probe call.
In a multiplatform scenario, it is possible that multiple serial
drivers are part of the kernel. Currently the driver registration fails
if multiple serial drivers with same default major/minor numbers are
included in the kernel.
A typical case is observed with amba-pl011 and samsung-uart drivers.
