We first tried to avoid updating atime/mtime entirely (commit
b0de59b5733d: "TTY: do not update atime/mtime on read/write"), and then
limited it to only update it occasionally (commit 37b7f3c76595: "TTY:
fix atime/mtime regression"), but it turns out that this was both
insufficient and overkill.
It was insufficient because we let people attach to the shared ptmx node
to see activity without even reading atime/mtime, and it was overkill
because the "only once a minute" means that you can't really tell an
idle person from an active one with 'w'.
So this tries to fix the problem properly. It marks the shared ptmx
node as un-notifiable, and it lowers the "only once a minute" to a few
seconds instead - still long enough that you can't time individual
keystrokes, but short enough that you can tell whether somebody is
active or not.

In commit b0de59b5733d ("TTY: do not update atime/mtime on read/write")
we removed timestamps from tty inodes to fix a security issue and waited
if something breaks. Well, 'w', the utility to find out logged users
and their inactivity time broke. It shows that users are inactive since
the time they logged in.
To revert to the old behaviour while still preventing attackers to
guess the password length, we update the timestamps in one-minute
intervals by this patch.

The latest r1p5-revision of the ARM PL011 UART has 32-byte FIFOs,
while all earlier ones have 16-byte FIFOs. This patch suggests
a way to set the FIFO-size correctly & flexibly by using a member
function named get_fifosize, rather than using the fifosize member
variable. The function takes the UARTPeriphID, and returns the
correct FIFO size.

The serial core uses device_find_child() but does not drop the reference to
the retrieved child after using it. This patch add the missing put_device().
What I have done to test this issue.
I used a machine with an AMBA PL011 serial driver. I tested the patch on
next-20120408 because the last branch [next-20120415] does not boot on this
board.
For test purpose, I added some pr_info() messages to print the refcount
after device_find_child() (lines: 1937,2009), and after put_device()
(lines: 1947, 2021).
Boot the machine *without* put_device(). Then:
echo reboot > /sys/power/disk
echo disk > /sys/power/state
[ 87.058575] uart_suspend_port:1937 refcount 4
[ 87.058582] uart_suspend_port:1947 refcount 4

The refcount continuously increased.

The registers for the Samsung S3C serial port are currently defined in
the platform specific arch/arm/plat-samsung/include/plat/regs-serial.h
file, which is not visible to multiplatform capable drivers.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to move the file into a more local
place as we should normally try to, because the same registers
may be used in one of four places:
* In the driver itself
* In platform-independent ARM code for early debug output
* In platform_data definitions
* In the Samsung platform power management code
I have also found no way to logically split out a platform_data
file, other than possibly move everything into
include/linux/platform_data, which also felt wrong. The only
part of this file that makes sense to keep specific to the s3c24xx
platform are the virtual and physical addresses defined here,
which are needed in no other location.

As Ilya Zykov identified in his patch 'PROBLEM: Race condition in
tty buffer's function flush_to_ldisc()', a race condition exists
which allows a parallel flush_to_ldisc() to flush and free the tty
flip buffers while those buffers are in-use. For example,
CPU 0 | CPU 1 | CPU 2
| flush_to_ldisc() |
| grab spin lock |
tty_buffer_flush() | | flush_to_ldisc()
wait for spin lock | | wait for spin lock
| if (!test_and_set_bit(TTYP_FLUSHING)) |
| while (next flip buffer) |
| ... |
| drop spin lock |
grab spin lock | |
if (test_bit(TTYP_FLUSHING)) | |
set_bit(TTYP_FLUSHPENDING) | receive_buf() |
drop spin lock | |
| | grab spin lock
| | if (!test_and_set_bit(TTYP_FLUSHING))
| | if (test_bit(TTYP_FLUSHPENDING))
| | __tty_buffer_flush()
CPU 2 has just flushed and freed all tty flip buffers while CPU 1 is
transferring data from the head flip buffer.
The original patch was rejected under the assumption that parallel
flush_to_ldisc() was not possible. Because of necessary changes to
the workqueue api, work items can execute in parallel on SMP.
This patch differs slightly from the original patch by testing for
a pending flush _after_ each receive_buf(), since TTYP_FLUSHPENDING
can only be set while the lock is dropped around receive_buf().

In DMA support, The received data is not pushed to tty until the DMA buffer
is filled. But some megabyte rate chips such as BT expect fast response and
data should be pushed immediately. In order to fix this issue, We suggest
the use of the timer for polling DMA buffer.
In our test, no data loss occurred at high-baudrate as compared with interrupt-
driven (We tested with 3Mbps).
We changes:
- We add timer for polling. If we set poll_timer to 10, every 10ms,
timer handler checks the residue in the dma buffer and transfer data
to the tty. Also, last_residue is updated for the next polling.
- poll_timeout is used to prevent the timer's system cost.
If poll_timeout is set to 3000 and no data is received in 3 seconds,
we inactivate poll timer and driver falls back to interrupt-driven.
When data is received again in FIFO and UART irq is occurred, we switch
back to DMA mode and start polling.
- We use consistent DMA mappings to avoid from the frequent cache operation
of the timer function for default.
- pl011_dma_rx_chars is modified. the pending size is recalculated because
data can be taken by polling.
- the polling time is adjusted if dma rx poll is enabled but no rate is
specified. Ideal polling interval to push 1 character at every interval
is the reciprocal of 'baud rate / 10 line bits per character / 1000 ms
per sec'. But It is very aggressive to system. Experimentally,
'10000000 / baud' is suitable to receive dozens of characters. the poll rate
can be specified statically by dma_rx_poll_rate of the platform data as well.
Changes compared to v1:
- Use of consistent DMA mappings.
- Added dma_rx_poll_rate in platform data to specify the polling interval.
- Added dma_rx_poll_timeout in platform data to specify the polling timeout.
Changes compared to v2:
- Use of consistent DMA mappings for default.
- Added dma_rx_poll_enable in platform data to adjust the polling time
according to the baud rate.
- remove unnecessary lock from the polling function.

The no_console_suspend option allows the console to write to the UART
during early resume, before the serial port itself is resumed. Such
writes hang indefinitely waiting for TX ready.
This adds a check to the console putchar function to drop characters
instead of hanging if the port hasn't been initialized. That way, we
can use no_console_suspend without risk of hanging.

Since the interrupt mask register is not preserved across system suspend
and it defaults to all interrupts enabled, it is not enough to disable
UART interrupt.
This patch adds free_irq to port shutdown and mask setting to port
startup to handle IRQ disabling in a suspend-friendly way. In addition,
a bug caused by multiple request_irq calls in port startup callback is

Consider a situation where I have an ARM based system
and therefore no legacy ports. Say, I have two
memory-mapped ports. I use device tree to describe the
ports. What would be the config options I set so that
I get only the two ports in my system? I do not want
legacy ports being created automatically and I want
it to be flexible enough that it creates the devices
based only on the device tree. I expected setting
SERIAL_8250_RUNTIME_UARTS = 0 to work because the
description said, "Set this to the maximum number of
serial ports you want the kernel to register at boot
time." Unfortunately, even though SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS
was set to the default value of 4, I did not get any device
nodes (because SERIAL_8250_RUNTIME_UARTS was 0). This
is what this change is addressing.
SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS controls the maximum number of ports
you can support. SERIAL_8250_RUNTIME_UARTS specifies the
number of ports you want to create automatically for legacy
ports at boot time. All other ports will be created
when serial8250_register_port is called (and if does not exceed
the total number of supported ports as specified by
SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS).

vcs_poll_data_free() calls unregister_vt_notifier(), which calls
atomic_notifier_chain_unregister(), which calls synchronize_rcu().
Do it *after* we'd dropped ->f_lock.

ASoC/extcon: arizona: Fix interaction between HPDET and headphone outputs
This patch series covers both ASoC and extcon subsystems and fixes an
interaction between the HPDET function and the headphone outputs - we
really shouldn't run HPDET while the headphone is active. The first
patch is a refactoring to make the extcon side easier.
