tty: vt: initialize softcursor_original correctly

2016-02-07T07:42:25Z

add_softcursor() stores the contents of the text buffer position in this variable before drawing the softcursor, whereas hide_softcursor() writes the value back. A value of -1 means that no cursor has been drawn and therefore no character is to be restored. softcursor_original, however, is only implicitly initialized with 0. Therefore, when hide_softcursor is called for the first time (console_init -> con_init -> redraw_screen -> hide_cursor), it wrongly writes 0x0000 in the top left corner of the text buffer. Normally, this is just as black as the rest of the screen (vc_video_erase_char) and can't be seen, but it appears as a black cursor rectangle on non-black backgrounds e.g. with boot option "vt.global_cursor_default=0 vt.color=0xf0". softcursor_original needs to be initialized with -1.

Pull staging fixes from Greg KH: "Here are some small staging driver fixes for 4.5-rc2. One of them predated 4.4-final, but I missed that merge window due to the holliday. The others fix reported issues that have come up recently.

Staging: speakup: fix read scrolled-back VT

2016-01-29T06:55:40Z

Previously, speakup would always read the non-scrolled part of the VT, even when the VT is scrolled back with shift-page. This patch makes vt.c export screen_pos so that speakup can use it to properly access the content of the scrolled-back VT. This was tested with both vgacon and fbcon.

tty: Prepare for destroying line discipline on hangup

2016-01-27T23:01:44Z

tty file_operations (read/write/ioctl) wait for the ldisc reference indefinitely (until ldisc lifetime events, such as hangup or TIOCSETD, finish). Since hangup now destroys the ldisc and does not instance another copy, file_operations must now be prepared to receive a NULL ldisc reference from tty_ldisc_ref_wait(): CPU 0 CPU 1 ----- ----- (*f_op->read)() => tty_read() __tty_hangup() ... f_op = &hung_up_tty_fops; ... tty_ldisc_hangup() tty_ldisc_lock() tty_ldisc_kill() tty->ldisc = NULL tty_ldisc_unlock() ld = tty_ldisc_ref_wait() /* ld == NULL */ Instead, the action taken now is to return the same value as if the tty had been hungup a moment earlier: CPU 0 CPU 1 ----- ----- __tty_hangup() ... f_op = &hung_up_tty_fops; (*f_op->read)() => hung_up_tty_read() return 0; ... tty_ldisc_hangup() tty_ldisc_lock() tty_ldisc_kill() tty->ldisc = NULL tty_ldisc_unlock() Signed-off-by: Peter Hurley Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
