2008-04-30tty: add throttle/unthrottle helpersAlan Cox1-0/+4
Something Arjan suggested which allows us to clean up the code nicely Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <[email protected]> Cc: Arjan van de Ven <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
2008-04-30tty: The big operations reworkAlan Cox1-48/+54
- Operations are now a shared const function block as with most other Linux objects - Introduce wrappers for some optional functions to get consistent behaviour - Wrap put_char which used to be patched by the tty layer - Document which functions are needed/optional - Make put_char report success/fail - Cache the driver->ops pointer in the tty as tty->ops - Remove various surplus lock calls we no longer need - Remove proc_write method as noted by Alexey Dobriyan - Introduce some missing sanity checks where certain driver/ldisc combinations would oops as they didn't check needed methods were present [[email protected]: fix fs/compat_ioctl.c build] [[email protected]: fix isicom] [[email protected]: fix arch/ia64/hp/sim/simserial.c build] [[email protected]: fix kgdb] Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <[email protected]> Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]> Cc: Jason Wessel <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
2008-04-17consoles: polling support, kgdbocJason Wessel1-0/+12
polled console handling support, to access a console in an irq-less way while in debug or irq context. absolutely zero impact as long as CONFIG_CONSOLE_POLL is disabled.

2007-05-11tty: add compat_ioctlPaul Fulghum1-0/+9
Add compat_ioctl method for tty code to allow processing of 32 bit ioctl calls on 64 bit systems by tty core, tty drivers, and line disciplines.

2006-12-08[PATCH] tty: switch to ktermios and new frameworkAlan Cox1-6/+6
This is the core of the switch to the new framework. I've split it from the driver patches which are mostly search/replace and would encourage people to give this one a good hard stare. The references to BOTHER and ISHIFT are the termios values that must be defined by a platform once it wants to turn on "new style" ioctl support. The code patches here ensure that providing 1. The termios overlays the ktermios in memory 2. The only new kernel only fields are c_ispeed/c_ospeed (or none) the existing behaviour is retained. This is true for the patches at this point in time. Future patches will define BOTHER, ISHIFT and enable newer termios structures for each architecture, and once they are all done some of the ifdefs also vanish.

2006-10-02[PATCH] const struct tty_operationsJeff Dike1-1/+2
As part of an SMP cleanliness pass over UML, I consted a bunch of structures in order to not have to document their locking. One of these structures was a struct tty_operations. In order to const it in UML without introducing compiler complaints, the declaration of tty_set_operations needs to be changed, and then all of its callers need to be fixed. This patch declares all struct tty_operations in the tree as const. In all cases, they are static and used only as input to tty_set_operations. As an extra check, I ran an i386 allyesconfig build which produced no extra warnings. 53 drivers are affected. I checked the history of a bunch of them, and in most cases, there have been only a handful of maintenance changes in the last six months. serial_core.c was the busiest one that I looked at.

2006-06-26[PATCH] devfs: Rename TTY_DRIVER_NO_DEVFS to TTY_DRIVER_DYNAMIC_DEVGreg Kroah-Hartman1-3/+10
I've always found this flag confusing. Now that devfs is no longer around, it has been renamed, and the documentation for when this flag should be used has been updated. Also fixes all drivers that use this flag. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]>

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds1-0/+279
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
