When taking an address of an extern array, gcc quite naturally should be
able to say "an address of an object can never be NULL" and just
optimize away the test entirely.
However, the new alternate sysrq reset code (commit 154b7a489a5b:
"Input: sysrq - allow specifying alternate reset sequence") did exactly
that, and declared platform_sysrq_reset_seq[] as a weak array, and
expecting that testing the address of the array would show whether it
actually got linked against something or not.
And that doesn't work with all gcc versions. Clearly it works with
*some* versions of gcc, and maybe it's even supposed to work, but it
really is a very fragile concept.
So instead of testing the address of the weak variable, just create a
weak instance of that array that is empty. If some platform then has a
real platform_sysrq_reset_seq[] that overrides our weak one, the linker
will switch to that one, and it all works without any run-time
conditionals at all.

1. Currently mxser_probe() and mxser_module_init() ignore errors

2. mxser_module_init() does not deallocate resources allocated in mxser_get_ISA_conf()
if mxser_initbrd() failed.
The patch adds proper error handling in all the cases.
Also it moves free_irq() from mxser_release_ISA_res() to mxser_board_remove(),
since it makes mxser_release_ISA_res() a counterpart for mxser_get_ISA_conf(),

On http://vladz.devzero.fr/013_ptmx-timing.php, we can see how to find
out length of a password using timestamps of /dev/ptmx. It is
documented in "Timing Analysis of Keystrokes and Timing Attacks on
SSH". To avoid that problem, do not update time when reading
from/writing to a TTY.
I am afraid of regressions as this is a behavior we have since 0.97
and apps may expect the time to be current, e.g. for monitoring
whether there was a change on the TTY. Now, there is no change. So
this would better have a lot of testing before it goes upstream.

commit 9ec1882df2 (tty: serial: imx: console write routing is unsafe
on SMP) introduced a recursive locking bug in imx_console_write().
The callchain is:
imx_rxint()
spin_lock_irqsave(&sport->port.lock,flags);
...
uart_handle_sysrq_char();
sysrq_function();
printk();
imx_console_write();
spin_lock_irqsave(&sport->port.lock,flags); <--- DEAD
The bad news is that the kernel debugging facilities can dectect the
problem, but the printks never surface on the serial console for
obvious reasons.
There is a similar issue with oops_in_progress. If the kernel crashes
we really don't want to be stuck on the lock and unable to tell what
happened.
In general most UP originated drivers miss these checks and nobody
ever notices because CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING seems to be still ignored by
a large number of developers.
The solution is to avoid locking in the sysrq case and trylock in the
oops_in_progress case.
This scheme is used in other drivers as well and it would be nice if
we could move this to a common place, so the usual copy/paste/modify
bugs can be avoided.
Now there is another issue with this scheme:
CPU0 CPU1
printk()
rxint()
sysrq_detection() -> sets port->sysrq
return from interrupt
console_write()
if (port->sysrq)
avoid locking
port->sysrq is reset with the next receive character. So as long as
the port->sysrq is not reset and this can take an endless amount of
time if after the break no futher receive character follows, all
console writes happen unlocked.
While the current writer is protected against other console writers by
the console sem, it's unprotected against open/close or other
operations which fiddle with the port. That's what the above mentioned
commit tried to solve.
That's an issue in all drivers which use that scheme and unfortunately
there is no easy workaround. The only solution is to have a separate
indicator port->sysrq_cpu. uart_handle_sysrq_char() then sets it to
smp_processor_id() before calling into handle_sysrq() and resets it to
-1 after that. Then change the locking check to:
if (port->sysrq_cpu == smp_processor_id())
locked = 0;
else if (oops_in_progress)
locked = spin_trylock_irqsave(port->lock, flags);
else
spin_lock_irqsave(port->lock, flags);
That would force all other cpus into the spin_lock path. Problem
solved, but that's way beyond the scope of this fix and really wants
to be implemented in a common function which calls the uart specific
write function to avoid another gazillion of hard to debug
copy/paste/modify bugs.

The PPS (Pulse-Per-Second) line discipline has developed a number of
unhealthy attachments to core tty data and functions, ultimately leading
to its breakage.
The previous patches fixed the crashing. This one reduces coupling further
by eliminating the timestamp parameter from the dcd_change ldisc method.
This reduces header file linkage and makes the extension more generic,
and the timestamp read is delayed only slightly, from just before the
ldisc->ops->dcd_change method call to just after.

Since SERIAL_CORE needs GENERIC_HARDIRQS (see below) and most serial drivers
select it, just add a GENERIC_HARDIRQS dependency to all serial drivers.
Fixes the compile error below:

fix bug in vgacon on bootup and fbcon losing fonts on startup.
* console-fixes: (50 commits)
fbcon: don't lose the console font across generic->chip driver switch
vgacon/vt: clear buffer attributes when we load a 512 character font (v2)
I've still got lockdep warnings even after Alan's patch, and it seems that

unbind_con_driver() and unregister_con_driver(). After this hack, lockdep

Adjust the console layer to allow a take over call where the caller
already holds the locks. Make the fb layer lock in order.
This is partly a band aid, the fb layer is terminally confused about the
locking rules it uses for its notifiers it seems.

When we switch from 256->512 byte font rendering mode, it means the
current contents of the screen is being reinterpreted. The bit that holds
the high bit of the 9-bit font, may have been previously set, and thus
the new font misrenders.
The problem case we see is grub2 writes spaces with the bit set, so it
ends up with data like 0x820, which gets reinterpreted into 0x120 char
which the font translates into G with a circumflex. This flashes up on
screen at boot and is quite ugly.
A current side effect of this patch though is that any rendering on the
screen changes color to a slightly darker color, but at least the screen
no longer corrupts.
v2: as suggested by hpa, always clear the attribute space, whether we
are are going to or from 512 chars.

Getting the tty kref in dashtty_timer() is no longer necessary since it
isn't needed in fetch_data() any longer (due to changes which make the
tty flip functions refer to tty_ports instead of tty_structs), so just

Original configuration of Rx FIFO threshold contained an error
that resulted Rx threshold to be effectively set to 1 character
instead of 16 characters, as noted in comments.
Checking LSR to contain UART_LSR_THRE bit set caused issue when
not all UART_IER_THRI interrupts have been properly handled.
This caused gap in Tx data, visible on high baud rates using
oscilloscope.
Setting OMAP_UART_SCR_TX_EMPTY bit in SCR caused UART_IER_THRI
interrupt to be raised only when Tx FIFO and Tx shift registers
are empty.

Multiple slave pty opens may be performed in parallel with the
master open. Of course, all the slave opens will fail because the
master pty is still locked but during this time the slave pty
count will be artificially greater than 1. This is should not
cause the master pty open to fail.

If the master and slave ptys are opened in parallel, the slave open
fails because the pty is still locked. This is as designed.
However, pty_close() is still called for the slave pty which sets
TTY_OTHER_CLOSED in the master pty. This can cause the master open
to fail as well.
Use a common pattern in other tty drivers by setting TTY_IO_ERROR
until the open is successful and only closing the pty if not set.
Note: the master pty always closes regardless of whether the open
was successful, so that proper cleanup can occur.

There's no reason kgdb.h itself needs to include the 8250 serial port
header file. So push it down to the _very_ limited number of individual
drivers that need the values in that file, and fix up the places where
people really wanted serial_core.h and platform_device.h.

The "normal" spin lock that guards the N_TTY line discipline read section
is replaced by a raw spin lock.
On a PREEMP_RT system this prevents unwanted scheduling overhead when data is
read at the same time as data is being received: while RX IRQ threaded handling
is busy a TTY read call is performed from a RT priority > threaded IRQ priority.
The read call tries to take the read section spin lock (held by the threaded
IRQ) which blocks and causes a context switch to/from the threaded IRQ handler
until the spin lock is unlocked.

This change fixes a deadlock when the multiplexer is closed while there
are still client side ports open.
When the multiplexer is closed and there are active tty's it tries to
close them with tty_vhangup. This has a problem though, because
tty_vhangup needs the tty_lock. This patch changes it to unlock the
tty_lock before attempting the hangup and relocks afterwards. The
additional call to tty_port_tty_set is needed because otherwise the
port stays active because of the reference counter.
This change also exposed another problem that other code paths don't
expect that the multiplexer could have been closed. This patch also adds
checks for these cases in the gsmtty_ class of function that could be
called.
The documentation explicitly states that "first close all virtual ports
before closing the physical port" but we've found this to not always
reality in our field situations. The GPRS / UTMS modem sometimes crashes
and needs a power cycle in that case which means cleanly shutting down
everything is not always possible. This change makes it much more robust
for our situation where at least the system is recoverable with this patch
and doesn't hang in a deadlock situation inside the kernel.
The patch is against the long term support kernel (3.4.27) and should
apply cleanly to more recent branches. Tested with a Telit GE864-QUADV2
and Telit HE910 modem.

Dan Carpenter noticed a missing set of parentheses
around a multiple field addition.
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/1/27/166
His original commit message:
There is a kind of precedence problem here, but it doesn't affect how
the code works because ->serial_signals is unsigned char. We want to
clear two flags here.
#define SerialSignal_RTS 0x20 /* Request to Send */
#define SerialSignal_DTR 0x80 /* Data Terminal Ready */
Without the parenthesis then it does:
info->serial_signals &= 0x5f;
With the parenthesis it does:
info->serial_signals &= 0xffffff5f;
info->serial_signals is an unsigned char so the two statements are
equivalent, but it's cleaner to add the parenthesis. In other dtr_rts()
functions the parenthesis are there so this makes it more consistent.
Other changes:
Convert all + uses to | for these bit operations.
Reorder the multiple fields for consistency.
Update the comments too.
