Using delayed-work for tty flip buffers ends up causing us to wait for
the next tick to complete some actions. That's usually not all that
noticeable, but for certain latency-critical workloads it ends up being
totally unacceptable.
As an extreme case of this, passing a token back-and-forth over a pty
will take two ticks per iteration, so even just a thousand iterations
will take 8 seconds assuming a common 250Hz configuration.
Avoiding the whole delayed work issue brings that ping-pong test-case
down to 0.009s on my machine.
In more practical terms, this latency has been a performance problem for
things like dive computer simulators (simulating the serial interface
using the ptys) and for other environments (Alan mentions a CP/M emulator).

Add a call to of_node_put in the error handling code following a call to
of_find_compatible_node or of_find_node_by_type.
This patch also substantially reorganizes the error handling code in the
function, to that it is possible first to jump to code that frees qe_port
and then to jump to code that also puts np.
The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:

This fixes a particular nasty racing problem found when using
Xen hypervisor with the console (hvc) output being routed to the
serial port and the serial port receiving data when
probe_irq_off(probe_irq_on) is running.
Specifically the bug manifests itself with:

[ 4.470693] [<ffffffff812ad66c>] ? uart_add_one_port+0x11b/0x305
The bug is trigged by three actors working together:
A). serial_8250_config_port calling
probe_irq_off(probe_irq_on())
wherein all of the IRQ handlers are being started and shut off.
The functions utilize the sleep functions so the minimum time
they are run is 120 msec.
B). Xen hypervisor receiving on the serial line any character and
setting the bits in the event channel - during this 120 msec timeframe.
C). The hvc API makes a call to 'request_irq' (and hence setting desc->action
to a valid value), much much later - when user space opens
/dev/console (hvc_open). To make the console usable during bootup,
the Xen HVC implementation sets the IRQ chip (and correspondingly
the event channel) much earlier. The IRQ chip handler that is used
is the handle_percpu_irq (aaca49642b92c8a57d3ca5029a5a94019c7af69f)
Back to the issue. When A) is being called it ends up calling the
xen_percpu_chip's chip->startup twice and chip->shutdown once. Those
are set to the default_startup and mask_irq (events.c) respectivly.
If (and this seems to depend on what serial concentrator you use), B)
gets data from the serial port it sets in the event channel a pending bit.
When A) calls chip->startup(), the masking of the pending bit, and
unmasking of the event channel mask, and also setting of the upcall_pending
flag is done (since there is data present on the event channel).
If before the 120 msec has elapsed, any IRQ handler (Xen IRQ has one
IRQ handler, which checks the event channels bitmap to figure which one
to call) is called we end up calling the handle_percpu_irq. The
handle_percpu_irq calls desc->action (which is NULL) and we blow up.
Caveats: I could only reproduce this on 2.6.32 pvops. I am not sure
why this is not showing up on 2.6.38 kernel.
The probe_irq_on/off has code to disable poking specific IRQ lines. This is
done by using the set_irq_noprobe() and then we do not have to
worry about the handle_percpu_irq being called before the IRQ action
handler has been installed.

This driver supports UART-DM HW on MSM platforms. It uses the on
chip DMA to drive data transfers and has optional support for UART
power management independent of Linux suspend/resume and wakeup
from Rx.
The driver was originally developed by Google. It is functionally
equivalent to the version available at:
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=kernel/experimental.git
the differences being:
1) Remove wakelocks and change unsupported DMA API.
2) Replace clock selection register codes by macros.
3) Fix checkpatch errors and add inline documentation.
4) Add runtime PM hooks for active power state transitions.
5) Handle error path and cleanup resources if required.

The current tty_audit_add_data code:
do {
size_t run;
run = N_TTY_BUF_SIZE - buf->valid;
if (run > size)
run = size;
memcpy(buf->data + buf->valid, data, run);
buf->valid += run;
data += run;
size -= run;
if (buf->valid == N_TTY_BUF_SIZE)
tty_audit_buf_push_current(buf);
} while (size != 0);
If the current buffer is full, kernel will then call tty_audit_buf_push_current
to empty the buffer. But if we disabled audit at the same time, tty_audit_buf_push()
returns immediately if audit_enabled is zero. Without emptying the buffer.
With obvious effect on tty_audit_add_data() that ends up spinning in that loop,
copying 0 bytes at each iteration and attempting to push each time without any effect.
Holding the lock all along.

S3 sleep invokes the shutdown callback of the sh-sci driver, which
suspends the clocks until they are reactivated by a call to startup.
However, before the latter is invoked, sci_set_termios may be called on
the port by uart_resume_port. In such cases it will endlessly wait for
the TEND bit to raise, which will never happen since the clocks are
disabled.
This patch ensures that clocks are enabled when ports registers are
manipulated within sci_set_termios.

The HVCS driver, for those who don't know, is a driver for the "server" side
of the IBM virtual terminal mechanism allowing Linux partitions to act as
terminal servers under IBM PowerVM hypervisor. It's almost never used on
the field at the moment.
However, it's part of our configs, and in its current incarnation, will
allocate the tty driver & major (with 64 minors) and create a kernel thread
whether it's used or not, ie, whether the hypervisor did put a virtual
terminal server device node in the partition or not (or whether running on
a pseries machine or not even).
This in turns causes modern distro's udev's to start trying to open all
those 64 minors at boot, which, since they aren't linked to anything,
causes the driver to spew errors in the kernel log for each of them.
Not nice.
This moves all that initialization to a function which is now only called
the first time a terminal server virtual IO device is actually probed
(that is almost never).
There's still a _LOT_ of cleanup that can be done in this driver, some
simple (almost all printk's statements in there shall either just be
removed or in some case turned into better written & more informative
messages, including using the dev_* variants etc...). This is left as
an exercise for whoever actually cares about that driver.
One could also try to be smart and dispose of all the tty related
resources when the last instance of the VIO server device
is removed (Hotplug anybody ?).

With the recent switch of the (currently still out-of-tree) Nios2 Linux
port to devicetree we want to be able to retrieve the resources and
properties from dts.
The old method to retrieve resources and properties from platform data
is still supported.

flush_scheduled_work() in tty_exit() doesn't seem to target any
specific work. If it was to flush work items used in tty generic
layer, they're already flushed properly during tty release.
flush_scheduled_work() is going away. Remove the seemingly redundant
usage.
