2009-09-21trivial: doc: hpfall: accept disk device to unload as argumentFrans Pop1-3/+42
Allows users who use an IDE driver for their disk to use hpfall without having to modify the source. By default /dev/sda is used. Suggested by Christian Thaeter in http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/3/25/505. While we're add it, improve error message if opening /dev/freefall fails.

2009-09-21trivial: doc: hpfall: reduce risk that hpfall can do harmChristian Thaeter1-0/+8
Improve the example code to be at least useable, as in not causing harm (as shown below). Code can still be improved further, but this adds some basic safeguards. 1. hpfall *MUST* mlockall(MCL_CURRENT|MCL_FUTURE); itself! Since the Program sits and waits most of the time it becomes very likely swapped out. If it gets woken up when the laptop drops from the table while it is swapped out it actually triggers harddrive activity! 2. Daemonize hpfall using 'daemon(0,0)' (quick and dirty). 3. Give hpfall realtime priority. Should give a chance that it has less latency when woken up.

Ingo points out that I screwed up when merging the 'timers-for-linus' branch in commit a03fdb7612874834d6847107198712d18b5242c7. A bit too much copy-and-pasting caused the end result to have an extraneous 'return' in the middle of an expression. That was obviously bogus. Blush.

2009-09-19USB serial: update the console driverAlan Stern1-9/+19
This patch (as1292) modifies the USB serial console driver, to make it compatible with the recent changes to the USB serial core. The most important change is that serial->disc_mutex now has to be unlocked following a successful call to usb_serial_get_by_index(). Other less notable changes include: Use the requested port number instead of port 0 always. Prevent the serial device from being autosuspended. Use the ASYNCB_INITIALIZED flag bit to indicate when the port hardware has been initialized. In spite of these changes, there's no question that the USB serial console code is still a big hack.

2009-09-19usb-serial: straighten out serial_openAlan Stern1-37/+22
This patch (as1291) removes a bunch of code from serial_open(), things that were rendered unnecessary by earlier patches. A missing spinlock is added to protect port->port.count, which needs to be incremented even if the open fails but not if the tty has gotten a hangup. The test for whether the hardware has been initialized, based on the use count, is replaced by a more transparent test of the ASYNCB_INITIALIZED bit in the port flags.

2009-09-19usb-serial: add missing tests and debug linesAlan Stern1-4/+17
This patch (as1290) adds some missing tests. serial_down() isn't supposed to do anything if the hardware hasn't been initialized, and serial_close() isn't supposed to do anything if the tty has gotten a hangup (because serial_hangup() takes care of shutting down the hardware). The patch also updates and adds a few debugging lines. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Cc: stable <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
