tty: mxser: fix cycle termination condition in mxser_probe() and mxser_module_init()

2013-04-08T18:30:04Z

There is a bug in resources deallocation code in mxser_probe() and mxser_module_init(). As soon as variable 'i' is unsigned int, cycle termination condition i >= 0 is always true. The patch fixes the issue. Signed-off-by: Alexey Khoroshilov Acked-by: Jiri Slaby Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tty: mxser: improve error handling in mxser_probe() and mxser_module_init()

2013-02-18T19:05:14Z

1. Currently mxser_probe() and mxser_module_init() ignore errors that can happen in tty_port_register_device(). 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(), while free_irq() is relevant to both ISA and PCI boards.

TTY: switch tty_flip_buffer_push

2013-01-16T06:30:15Z

Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty in many call sites. Only tty_port will needed and hence no more tty_port_tty_get in those paths. Now, the one where most of tty_port_tty_get gets removed: tty_flip_buffer_push. IOW we also closed all the races in drivers not using tty_port_tty_get at all yet. Also we move tty_flip_buffer_push declaration from include/linux/tty.h to include/linux/tty_flip.h to all others while we are changing it anyway.

TTY: move low_latency to tty_port

2013-01-16T06:23:16Z

One point is to have less places where we actually need tty pointer. The other is that low_latency is bound to buffer processing and buffers are now in tty_port. So it makes sense to move low_latency to tty_port too. Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

TTY: switch tty_insert_flip_char

2013-01-16T06:21:36Z

Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty in many call sites. Only tty_port will needed and hence no more tty_port_tty_get in those paths. tty_insert_flip_char is the next one to proceed. This one is used all over the code, so the patch is huge.

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

serial: add a new helper function

2012-09-05T20:28:35Z

In most of the time, the driver needs to check if the cts flow control is enabled. But now, the driver checks the ASYNC_CTS_FLOW flag manually, which is not a grace way. So add a new wraper function to make the code tidy and clean. Signed-off-by: Huang Shijie Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
