TTY: call tty_port_destroy in the rest of drivers

2012-11-16T01:20:58Z

After commit "TTY: move tty buffers to tty_port", the tty buffers are not freed in some drivers. This is because tty_port_destructor is not called whenever a tty_port is freed. This was an assumption I counted with but was unfortunately untrue. So fix the drivers to fulfil this assumption. To be sure, the TTY buffers (and later some stuff) are gone along with the tty_port, we have to call tty_port_destroy at tear-down places. This is mostly where the structure containing a tty_port is freed. This patch does exactly that -- put tty_port_destroy at those places. Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

TTY: hvc_console, fix port reference count going to zero prematurely

2012-11-14T20:27:29Z

Commit bdb498c20040 "TTY: hvc_console, add tty install" took the port refcounting out of hvc_open()/hvc_close(), but failed to remove the kref_put() and tty_kref_put() calls in hvc_hangup() that were there to remove the extra references that hvc_open() had taken. The result was that doing a vhangup() when the current terminal was a hvc_console, then closing the current terminal, would end up calling destroy_hvc_struct() and making the port disappear entirely. This meant that Fedora 17 systems would boot up but then not display the login prompt on the console, and attempts to open /dev/hvc0 would give a "No such device" error. This fixes it by removing the extra kref_put() and tty_kref_put() calls. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras Acked-by: Jiri Slaby Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
