2012-11-15TTY: call tty_port_destroy in the rest of driversJiri Slaby1-0/+2
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.

2012-08-13TTY: use tty_port_register_deviceJiri Slaby1-4/+5
Currently we have no way to assign tty->port while performing tty installation. There are two ways to provide the link tty_struct => tty_port. Either by calling tty_port_install from tty->ops->install or tty_port_register_device called instead of tty_register_device when the device is being set up after connected. In this patch we modify most of the drivers to do the latter. When the drivers use tty_register_device and we have tty_port already, we switch to tty_port_register_device. So we have the tty_struct => tty_port link for free for those.

2012-03-08TTY: remove re-assignments to tty_driver membersJiri Slaby1-1/+0
All num, magic and owner are set by alloc_tty_driver. No need to re-set them on each allocation site. pti driver sets something different to what it passes to alloc_tty_driver. It is not a bug, since we don't use the lines parameter in any way. Anyway this is fixed, and now we do the right thing.

2011-09-26drivers/tty: don't use the byte channel handle as a parameter in ehv_bytechan.cTimur Tabi1-5/+2
The ePAPR hypervisor byte channel console driver only supports one byte channel as a console, and the byte channel handle is stored in a global variable. It doesn't make any sense to pass that handle as a parameter to the console functions, since these functions already have access to the global variable.

2011-08-26tty/powerpc: fix build break with ehv_bytechan.c on allyesconfigTimur Tabi1-6/+2
The ePAPR hypervisor byte channel driver is supposed to work on all ePAPR-compliant embedded PowerPC systems, but it had a reference to the MSR_GS bit, which is available only on Book-E systems. Also fix a couple integer-to-pointer typecast problems.

2011-08-23tty/powerpc: introduce the ePAPR embedded hypervisor byte channel driverTimur Tabi1-0/+888
The ePAPR embedded hypervisor specification provides an API for "byte channels", which are serial-like virtual devices for sending and receiving streams of bytes. This driver provides Linux kernel support for byte channels via three distinct interfaces: 1) An early-console (udbg) driver. This provides early console output through a byte channel. The byte channel handle must be specified in a Kconfig option. 2) A normal console driver. Output is sent to the byte channel designated for stdout in the device tree. The console driver is for handling kernel printk calls. 3) A tty driver, which is used to handle user-space input and output. The byte channel used for the console is designated as the default tty.
