2001-08-11  Tim Waugh  <twaugh@redhat.com>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (get_pci_port): Deal with awkward Titan cards.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1998-08-26  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_open): Correctly decrement the module in-use count
 | 
						|
		on errors.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Thu Feb 19 14:24:08 1998  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (tty_name): Remove the non-reentrant (and non-SMP safe)
 | 
						|
		version of tty_name, and rename the reentrant _tty_name
 | 
						|
		function to be tty_name.
 | 
						|
		(tty_open): Add a warning message stating callout devices
 | 
						|
		are deprecated.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Mon Dec  1 08:24:15 1997  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (tty_get_baud_rate): Print a warning syslog if the
 | 
						|
		tty->alt_speed kludge is used; this means the system is
 | 
						|
		using the deprecated SPD_HI ioctls.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Mon Nov 24 10:37:49 1997  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c, esp.c, rocket.c: Change drivers to take advantage of
 | 
						|
	 	tty_get_baud_rate().
 | 
						|
	
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (tty_get_baud_rate): New function which computes the
 | 
						|
		correct baud rate for the tty.  More factoring out of
 | 
						|
		common code out of the serial driver to the high-level tty
 | 
						|
		functions....
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sat Nov 22 07:53:36 1997  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c, esp.c, rocket.c: Add tty->driver.break() routine, and
 | 
						|
 		allow high-level tty code to handle the break and soft
 | 
						|
 		carrier ioctls.
 | 
						|
	
 | 
						|
	* tty_ioctl.c (n_tty_ioctl): Support TIOCGSOFTCAR and
 | 
						|
 		TIOCSSOFTCAR, so that device drivers don't have to support
 | 
						|
 		it.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (autoconfig): Change 16750 test to hopefully eliminate
 | 
						|
		false results by people with strange 16550As being
 | 
						|
		detected as 16750s.  Hopefully 16750s will still be
 | 
						|
		detected as 16750, and other weird UARTs won't get poorly
 | 
						|
		autodetected.  If this doesn't work, I'll have to disable
 | 
						|
		the auto identification for the 16750.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (tty_hangup): Now actually do the tty hangup
 | 
						|
		processing during the timer processing, and disable
 | 
						|
		interrupts while doing the hangup processing.  This avoids
 | 
						|
		several nasty race conditions which happened when the
 | 
						|
		hangup processing was done asynchronously.
 | 
						|
		(tty_ioctl): Do break handling in the tty driver if
 | 
						|
		driver's break function is supported.  
 | 
						|
		(tty_flip_buffer_push): New exported function which should
 | 
						|
		be used by drivers to push characters in the flip buffer
 | 
						|
		to the tty handler.  This may either be done using a task
 | 
						|
		queue function for better CPU efficiency, or directly for
 | 
						|
		low latency operation.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_set_termios): Fix bug rs_set_termios when
 | 
						|
		transitioning away from B0, submitted by Stanislav
 | 
						|
		Voronyi. 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Thu Jun 19 20:05:58 1997  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (begin_break, end_break, rs_ioctl): Applied patch
 | 
						|
		to support BSD ioctls to set and clear the break
 | 
						|
		condition explicitly.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* console.c (scrup, scrdown, insert_line, delete_line): Applied
 | 
						|
		fix suggested by Aaron Tiensivu to speed up block scrolls
 | 
						|
		up and down.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* n_tty.c (opost_block, write_chan): Added a modified "fast
 | 
						|
 		console" patch which processes a block of text via
 | 
						|
		"cooking" efficiently.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Wed Jun 18 15:25:50 1997  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (init_dev, release_dev): Applied fix suggested by Bill
 | 
						|
		Hawes to prevent race conditions in the tty code.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* n_tty.c (n_tty_chars_in_buffer): Applied fix suggested by Bill
 | 
						|
		Hawes so that n_tty_chars_in_buffer returns the correct
 | 
						|
		value in the case when the tty is in cannonical mode.  (To
 | 
						|
		avoid a pty deadlock with telnetd.)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Thu Feb 27 01:53:08 1997  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (change_speed): Add support for the termios flag
 | 
						|
		CMSPAR, which allows the user to select stick parity.
 | 
						|
		(i.e, if PARODD is set, the parity bit is always 1; if
 | 
						|
		PARRODD is not set, then the parity bit is always 0).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Wed Feb 26 19:03:10 1997  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (cleanup_module): Fix memory leak when using the serial
 | 
						|
		driver as a module; make sure tmp_buf gets freed!
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Tue Feb 25 11:01:59 1997  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (set_modem_info): Add support for setting and clearing
 | 
						|
		the OUT1 and OUT2 bits.  (For special case UART's, usually
 | 
						|
		for half-duplex.)
 | 
						|
		(autoconfig, change_speed): Fix TI 16750 support.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sun Feb 16 00:14:43 1997  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (release_dev): Add sanity check to make sure there are
 | 
						|
		no waiters on tty->read_wait or tty->write_wait.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_init): Don't autoconfig a device if the I/O region
 | 
						|
		is already reserved.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (serial_proc_info): Add support for /proc/serial.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Thu Feb 13 00:49:10 1997  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (receive_chars): When the UART repotrs an overrun
 | 
						|
 		condition, it does so with a valid character.  Changed to
 | 
						|
 		not throw away the valid character, but instead report the
 | 
						|
		overrun after the valid character.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c: Added new #ifdef's for some of the advanced serial
 | 
						|
		driver features.  A minimal driver that only supports COM
 | 
						|
		1/2/3/4 without sharing serial interrupts only takes 17k;
 | 
						|
		the full driver takes 32k.
 | 
						|
		
 | 
						|
Wed Feb 12 14:50:44 1997  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* vt.c:
 | 
						|
	* pty.c: 
 | 
						|
	* tty_ioctl.c: 
 | 
						|
	* serial.c: Update routines to use the new 2.1 memory access
 | 
						|
	 	routines.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Wed Dec  4 07:51:52 1996  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@localhost.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (change_speed): Use save_flags(); cli() and
 | 
						|
		restore_flags() in order to ensure we don't accidentally
 | 
						|
		turn on interrupts when starting up the port.
 | 
						|
		(startup): Move the insertion of serial structure into the
 | 
						|
		IRQ chain earlier into the startup processing.  Interrupts
 | 
						|
		should be off this whole time, but we eventually will want
 | 
						|
		to reduce this window.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Thu Nov 21 10:05:22 1996  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@localhost.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_ioctl.c (tty_wait_until_sent): Always check the driver
 | 
						|
 		wait_until_ready routine, even if there are no characters
 | 
						|
 		in the xmit buffer.  (There may be charactes in the device
 | 
						|
 		FIFO.)
 | 
						|
		(n_tty_ioctl): Add new flag tty->flow_stopped which
 | 
						|
 		indicates whether the tty is stopped due to a request by
 | 
						|
 		the TCXONC ioctl (used by tcflow).  If so, don't let an
 | 
						|
 		incoming XOFF character restart the tty.  The tty can only
 | 
						|
 		be restarted by another TCXONC request.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (start_tty): Don't allow the tty to be restarted if
 | 
						|
		tty->flow_stopped is true.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* n_tty.c (n_tty_receive_char): If tty->flow_stopped is true, and
 | 
						|
 		IXANY is set, don't eat a character trying to restart the
 | 
						|
 		tty.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (startup): Remove need for MCR_noint from the
 | 
						|
 		async_struct structure.  Only turn on DTR and RTS if the
 | 
						|
 		baud rate is not zero.
 | 
						|
		(change_speed): More accurately calculate the timeout
 | 
						|
 		value based on the word size.  Move responsibility of
 | 
						|
 		hangup when speed becomes B0 to rs_set_termios()
 | 
						|
		(set_serial_info): When changing the UART type set the
 | 
						|
 		current xmit_fifo_size as well as the permanent
 | 
						|
 		xmit_fifo_size.
 | 
						|
		(rs_ioctl): Fix TCSBRK (used by tcdrain) and TCSBRKP
 | 
						|
 		ioctls to return EINTR if interrupted by a signal.
 | 
						|
		(rs_set_termios): If the baud rate changes to or from B0,
 | 
						|
 		this function is now responsible for setting or clearing
 | 
						|
 		DTR and RTS.  DTR and RTS are only be changed on the
 | 
						|
 		transition to or from the B0 state.
 | 
						|
		(rs_close): Wait for the characters to drain based on
 | 
						|
 		info->timeout.  At low baud rates (50 bps), it may take a
 | 
						|
 		long time for the FIFO to completely drain out!
 | 
						|
		(rs_wait_until_sent): Fixed timeout handling.  Now
 | 
						|
 		releases control to the scheduler, but checks frequently
 | 
						|
 		enough so that the function is sensitive enough to pass
 | 
						|
 		the timing requirements of the NIST-PCTS.
 | 
						|
		(block_til_ready): When opening the device, don't turn on
 | 
						|
 		DTR and RTS if the baud rate is B0.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Thu Nov 14 00:06:09 1996  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (autoconfig): Fix autoconfiguration problems;
 | 
						|
		info->flags wasn't getting initialized from the state
 | 
						|
		structure.  Put in more paranoid test for the 16750.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Fri Nov  8 20:19:50 1996  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* n_tty.c (n_tty_flush_buffer): Only call driver->unthrottle() if
 | 
						|
 		the tty was previous throttled.
 | 
						|
		(n_tty_set_termios, write_chan): Add changes suggested by
 | 
						|
 			Simon P. Allen to allow hardware cooking.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_ioctl.c (set_termios): If we get a signal while waiting for
 | 
						|
		the tty to drain, return -EINTR.
 | 
						|
	
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (change_speed): Add support for CREAD, as required by
 | 
						|
	 	POSIX.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sat Nov  2 20:43:10 1996  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c: Wholesale changes.  Added support for the Startech
 | 
						|
 		16650 and 16650V2 chips.  (WARNING: the new startech
 | 
						|
 		16650A may or may not work!)  Added support for the
 | 
						|
 		TI16750 (not yet tested).  Split async_struct into a
 | 
						|
 		transient part (async_struct) and a permanent part
 | 
						|
		(serial_state) which contains the configuration
 | 
						|
 		information for the ports.  Added new driver routines
 | 
						|
 		wait_until_sent() and send_xchar() to help with POSIX
 | 
						|
 		compliance.  Added support for radio clocks which waggle
 | 
						|
		the carrier detect line (CONFIG_HARD_PPS).
 | 
						|
	
 | 
						|
	* tty_ioctl.c (tty_wait_until_sent): Added call to new driver
 | 
						|
		function tty->driver.wait_until_sent(), which returns when
 | 
						|
		the tty's device xmit buffers are drained.  Needed for
 | 
						|
		full POSIX compliance.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		(send_prio_char): New function, called by the ioctl's
 | 
						|
		TCIOFF and TCION; uses the new driver call send_xchar(),
 | 
						|
		which will send the XON or XOFF character at high priority
 | 
						|
		(and even if tty output is stopped).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Wed Jun  5 18:52:04 1996  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* pty.c (pty_close): When closing a pty, make sure packet mode is
 | 
						|
	 	cleared.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sun May 26 09:33:52 1996  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* vesa_blank.c (set_vesa_blanking): Add missing verify_area() call.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* selection.c (set_selection): Add missing verify_area() call.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (tty_ioctl): Add missing verify_area() calls.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_ioctl): Add missing verify_area() calls.
 | 
						|
		(rs_init): Allow initialization of serial driver
 | 
						|
		configuration from a module.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* random.c (extract_entropy): Add missing verify_area call.
 | 
						|
		Don't limit number of characters returned to
 | 
						|
		32,768. Extract entropy is now no longer a inlined
 | 
						|
		function.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		(random_read): Check return value in case extract_entropy
 | 
						|
		returns an error.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		(secure_tcp_sequence_number): New function which returns a
 | 
						|
		secure TCP sequence number.  This is needed to prevent some
 | 
						|
		nasty TCP hijacking attacks.
 | 
						|
	
 | 
						|
		(init_std_data): Initialize using gettimeofday() instead of
 | 
						|
		struct timeval xtime.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		(fast_add_entropy_word, add_entropy_word): Rename the
 | 
						|
		inline function add_entropy_word() to
 | 
						|
		fast_add_entropy_word().  Make add_entropy_word() be the
 | 
						|
		non-inlined function which is used in non-timing critical
 | 
						|
		places, in order to save space.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		(initialize_benchmark, begin_benchmark, end_benchmark): New
 | 
						|
		functions defined when RANDOM_BENCHMARK is defined.  They
 | 
						|
		allow us to benchmark the speed of the
 | 
						|
		add_timer_randomness() call.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		(int_ln, rotate_left): Add two new inline functions with
 | 
						|
		i386 optimized asm instructions.  This speeds up the
 | 
						|
		critical add_entropy_word() and add_timer_randomness()
 | 
						|
		functions, which are called from interrupt handlers.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Tue May  7 22:51:11 1996    <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* random.c (add_timer_randomness): Limit the amount randomness
 | 
						|
		that we estimate to 12 bits.  (An arbitrary amount).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		(extract_entropy): To make it harder to analyze the hash
 | 
						|
		function, fold the hash function in half using XOR, and
 | 
						|
		use the folded result as the value to emit to the user.
 | 
						|
		Also, add timer randomness each pass through the
 | 
						|
		exact_entropy call, to increase the amount of unknown
 | 
						|
		values during the extraction process.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		(random_ioctl): Use IOR/IOW definitions to define the
 | 
						|
		ioctl values used by the /dev/random driver.  Allow the
 | 
						|
		old ioctl values to be used for backwards compatibility
 | 
						|
		(for a limited amount of time).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Wed Apr 24 14:02:04 1996  Theodore Ts'o  <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* random.c (add_timer_randomness): Use 2nd derivative as well to
 | 
						|
		better estimate entropy.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		(rand_initialize): Explicitly initialize all the pointers
 | 
						|
		to NULL.  (Clearing pointers using memset isn't portable.)
 | 
						|
		Initialize the random pool with OS-dependent data.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		(random_write): Add sanity checking to the arguments to
 | 
						|
		random_write(), so that bad arguments won't cause a kernel
 | 
						|
		SEGV. 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		(random_read): Update the access time of the device inode
 | 
						|
		when you return data to the user.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		(random_ioctl): Wake up the random_wait channel when there
 | 
						|
		are only WAIT_INPUT_BITS available.  Add more paranoia
 | 
						|
		checks to make sure entropy_count doesn't go beyond the
 | 
						|
		bounds of (0, POOLSIZE).  Add a few missing verify_area
 | 
						|
		checks.  Add support for the RNDCLEARPOOL ioctl, which
 | 
						|
		zaps the random pool.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		(add_timer_randomness): Wake up the random_wait
 | 
						|
		channel only when there are WAIT_INPUT_BITS available.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		(random_select): Allow a random refresh daemon process to
 | 
						|
		select on /dev/random for writing; wake up the daemon when
 | 
						|
		there are less than WAIT_OUTPUT_BITS bits of randomness
 | 
						|
		available.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Tue Apr 23 22:56:07 1996    <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (init_dev): Change return code when user attempts to
 | 
						|
		open master pty which is already open from EAGAIN to EIO,
 | 
						|
		to match with BSD expectations.  EIO is more correct
 | 
						|
		anyway, since EAGAIN implies that retrying will be
 | 
						|
		successful --- which it might be.... Eventually!!
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* pty.c (pty_open, pty_close): Fix wait loop so that we don't
 | 
						|
		busy loop while waiting for the master side to open.
 | 
						|
		Fix tty opening/closing logic.  TTY_SLAVE_CLOSED was
 | 
						|
		renamed to TTY_OTHER_CLOSED, so that the name is more
 | 
						|
		descriptive.  Also fixed code so that the tty flag
 | 
						|
		actually works correctly now....
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Mon Apr  1 10:22:01 1996    <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_close): Cleaned up modularization changes.
 | 
						|
		Remove code which forced line discipline back to N_TTY
 | 
						|
		this is done in the tty upper layers, and there's no
 | 
						|
		reason to do it here.  (Making this change also
 | 
						|
		removed the requirement that the serial module access
 | 
						|
		the internal kernel symbol "ldiscs".)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (tty_init): Formally register a tty_driver entry for
 | 
						|
		/dev/tty (device 4, 0) and /dev/console (device 5, 0).
 | 
						|
		This guarantees that major device numbers 4 and 5 will be
 | 
						|
		reserved for the tty subsystem (as they have to be because
 | 
						|
		of /dev/tty and /dev/console).  Removed tty_regdev, as
 | 
						|
		this interface is no longer necessary.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sun Mar 17 20:42:47 GMT 1996 <ah@doc.ic.ac.uk>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c : modularisation (changes in linux/fs/device.c allow
 | 
						|
		kerneld to automatically load the serial module).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* Makefile, Config.in : serial modularisation adds.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c : tty_init_ctty used by to register "cua" driver just
 | 
						|
		for the /dev/tty device (5,0).  Added tty_regdev.
 | 
						|
	
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (shutdown, rs_ioctl) : when port shuts down wakeup processes
 | 
						|
	  waiting on delta_msr_wait. The TIOCMIWAIT ioctl returns EIO
 | 
						|
	  if no change was done since the time of call.

						|
Sat Mar 16 14:33:13 1996 <aeb@cwi.nl>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (disassociate_ctty): If disassociate_ctty is called by
 | 
						|
		exit, do not perform an implicit vhangup on a pty.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Fri Feb  9 14:15:47 1996    <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (block_til_ready): Fixed another race condition which
 | 
						|
		happens if a hangup happens during the open.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Wed Jan 10 10:08:00 1996    <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (block_til_ready): Remove race condition which happened
 | 
						|
		if a hangup condition happened during the setup of the
 | 
						|
		UART, before rs_open() called block_til_ready().  This
 | 
						|
		caused the info->count counter to be erroneously
 | 
						|
		decremented.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (startup, rs_open): Remove race condition that could
 | 
						|
		cause a memory leak of one page.  (Fortunately, both race
 | 
						|
		conditions were relatively rare in practice.)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Tue Dec  5 13:21:27 1995    <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (check_modem_status, rs_ioctl): Support the new
 | 
						|
		ioctl()'s TIOCGICOUNT, TIOCMIWAIT.  These allow an
 | 
						|
		application program to wait on a modem serial register
 | 
						|
		status bit change, and to find out how many changes have
 | 
						|
		taken place for the MSR bits.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		(rs_write): Eliminate a race condition which is introduced
 | 
						|
		if it is necessary to wait for the semaphore.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sat Nov  4 17:14:45 1995    <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (tty_init): Move registration of TTY_MAJOR and
 | 
						|
		TTY_AUX_MAJOR to the end, so that /proc/devices looks
 | 
						|
		prettier. 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* pty.c (pty_init): Use new major numbers for PTY master and slave
 | 
						|
		devices.  This allow us to have more than 64 pty's.  We
 | 
						|
		register the old pty devices for backwards compatibility.
 | 
						|
		Note that a system should either be using the old pty
 | 
						|
		devices or the new pty devices --- in general, it should
 | 
						|
		try to use both, since they map into the same pty table.
 | 
						|
		The old pty devices are strictly for backwards compatibility.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Wed Oct 11 12:45:24 1995    <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (disassociate_ctty): If disassociate_ctty is called by
 | 
						|
		exit, perform an implicit vhangup on the tty.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* pty.c (pty_close): When the master pty is closed, send a hangup
 | 
						|
		to the slave pty.
 | 
						|
		(pty_open): Use the flag TTY_SLAVE_CLOSED to test to see
 | 
						|
		if there are any open slave ptys, instead of using
 | 
						|
		tty->link->count.  The old method got confused if there
 | 
						|
		were processes that had hung-up file descriptors on the
 | 
						|
		slave tty.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Tue May  2 00:53:25 1995    <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (tty_set_ldisc): Wait until the output buffer is
 | 
						|
		drained before closing the old line discipline --- needed
 | 
						|
		in only one case: XON/XOFF processing.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* n_tty.c (n_tty_close): Don't bother waiting until the output
 | 
						|
		driver is closed; in general, the line discipline
 | 
						|
		shouldn't care if the hardware is finished
 | 
						|
		transmitting before the line discipline terminates.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (release_dev): Shutdown the line discipline after
 | 
						|
		decrementing the tty count variable; but set the
 | 
						|
		TTY_CLOSING flag so that we know that this tty structure
 | 
						|
		isn't long for this world.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (init_dev): Add sanity code to check to see if
 | 
						|
		TTY_CLOSING is set on a tty structure; if so, something
 | 
						|
		bad has happened (probably a line discipline close blocked
 | 
						|
		when it shouldn't have; so do a kernel printk and then
 | 
						|
		return an error).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Wed Apr 26 10:23:44 1995  Theodore Y. Ts'o  <tytso@localhost>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (release_dev): Try to shutdown the line discipline
 | 
						|
		*before* decrementing the tty count variable; this removes
 | 
						|
		a potential race condition which occurs when the line
 | 
						|
		discipline close blocks, and another process then tries
 | 
						|
		open the same serial port.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_hangup): When hanging up, flush the output buffer
 | 
						|
		before shutting down the UART.  Otherwise the line
 | 
						|
		discipline close blocks waiting for the characters to get
 | 
						|
		flushed, which never happens until the serial port gets reused.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Wed Apr 12 08:06:16 1995  Theodore Y. Ts'o  <tytso@localhost>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (do_serial_hangup, do_softint, check_modem_status,
 | 
						|
		rs_init):  Hangups are now scheduled via a separate tqueue
 | 
						|
		structure in the async_struct structure, tqueue_hangup.
 | 
						|
		This task is pushed on to the tq_schedule queue, so that
 | 
						|
		it is processed synchronously by the scheduler.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sat Feb 18 12:13:51 1995  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (disassociate_ctty, tty_open, tty_ioctl): Clear
 | 
						|
		current->tty_old_pgrp field when a session leader
 | 
						|
		acquires a controlling tty, and after a session leader
 | 
						|
		has disassociated from a controlling tty.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Fri Feb 17 09:34:09 1995  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_interrupt_single, rs_interrupt, rs_interrupt_multi): 
 | 
						|
		Change the number of passes made from 64 to be 256,
 | 
						|
		configurable with the #define RS_ISR_PASS_LIMIT.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_init, set_serial_info, get_serial_info, rs_close):
 | 
						|
		Remove support for closing_wait2.  Instead, set
 | 
						|
		tty->closing and rely on the line discipline to prevent
 | 
						|
		echo wars.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* n_tty.c (n_tty_receive_char):  IEXTEN does not need to be
 | 
						|
		enabled in order for IXANY to be active.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		If tty->closing is set, then only process XON and XOFF
 | 
						|
                characters.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sun Feb 12 23:57:48 1995  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_timer): Change the interrupt poll time from 60
 | 
						|
		seconds to 10 seconds, configurable with the #define
 | 
						|
		RS_STROBE_TIME.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_interrupt_multi, startup, shutdown, rs_ioctl,
 | 
						|
		set_multiport_struct, get_multiport_struct): Add
 | 
						|
		provisions for a new type of interrupt service routine,
 | 
						|
		which better supports multiple serial ports on a single
 | 
						|
		IRQ.  
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sun Feb  5 19:35:11 1995  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_ioctl.c (n_tty_ioctl, set_termios, tty_wait_until_sent): 
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_ioctl, rs_close): 
 | 
						|
	* cyclades.c (cy_ioctl, cy_close): 
 | 
						|
	* n_tty.c (n_tty_close):  Rename wait_until_sent to
 | 
						|
		tty_wait_until_sent, so that it's a better name to export
 | 
						|
		in ksyms.c.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sat Feb  4 23:36:20 1995  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_close): Added missing check for closing_wait2 being
 | 
						|
		ASYNC_CLOSING_WAIT_NONE.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Thu Jan 26 09:02:49 1995  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_init, set_serial_info, get_serial_info,
 | 
						|
		rs_close): Support close_wait in the serial driver.
 | 
						|
		This is helpful for slow devices (like serial
 | 
						|
		plotters) so that their outputs don't get flushed upon
 | 
						|
		device close.  This has to be configurable because
 | 
						|
		normally we don't want ports to be hung up for long
 | 
						|
		periods of time during a close when they are not
 | 
						|
		connected to a device, or the device is powered off.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		The default is to wait 30 seconds; in the case of a
 | 
						|
		very slow device, the close_wait timeout should be
 | 
						|
		lengthened.  If it is set to 0, the kernel will wait
 | 
						|
		forever for all of the data to be transmitted.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Thu Jan 17 01:17:20 1995  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (startup, change_speed, rs_init): Add support to detect
 | 
						|
		the StarTech 16650 chip.  Treat it as a 16450 for now,
 | 
						|
		because of its FIFO bugs.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Thu Jan  5 21:21:57 1995  <dahinds@users.sourceforge.net>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c: (receive_char): Added counter to prevent infinite loop
 | 
						|
		when a PCMCIA serial device is ejected.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Thu Dec 29 17:53:48 1994    <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (check_tty_count): New procedure which checks
 | 
						|
		tty->count to make sure that it matches with the number of
 | 
						|
		open file descriptors which point at the structure.  If
 | 
						|
		the number doesn't match, it prints a warning message.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Wed Dec 28 15:41:51 1994    <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (do_tty_hangup, disassociate_ctty): At hangup time,
 | 
						|
		save the tty's current foreground process group in the
 | 
						|
		session leader's task structure.  When the session leader
 | 
						|
		terminates, send a SIGHUP, SIGCONT to that process group.
 | 
						|
		This is not required by POSIX, but it's not prohibited
 | 
						|
		either, and it appears to be the least intrusive way
 | 
						|
		to fix a problem that dialup servers have with
 | 
						|
		orphaned process groups caused by modem hangups.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Thu Dec  8 14:52:11 1994    <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_ioctl): Don't allow most ioctl's if the serial port
 | 
						|
		isn't initialized.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_close): Don't clear the IER if the serial port
 | 
						|
		isn't initialized. 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (block_til_ready): Don't try to block on the dialin
 | 
						|
		port if the serial port isn't initialized.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Wed Dec  7 10:48:30 1994  Si Park (si@wimpol.demon.co.uk)
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (tty_register_driver): Fix bug when linking onto
 | 
						|
		the tty_drivers list. We now test that there are elements
 | 
						|
		already on the list before setting the back link from the
 | 
						|
		first element to the new driver.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (tty_unregister_driver): Fix bug in unlinking the
 | 
						|
		specified driver from the tty_drivers list. We were not
 | 
						|
		setting the back link correctly. This used to result in
 | 
						|
		a dangling back link pointer and cause panics on the next
 | 
						|
		call to get_tty_driver().
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Tue Nov 29 10:21:09 1994  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (tty_unregister_driver): Fix bug in
 | 
						|
		tty_unregister_driver where the pointer to the refcount is
 | 
						|
		tested, instead of the refcount itself.  This caused
 | 
						|
		tty_unregister_driver to always return EBUSY.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sat Nov 26 11:59:24 1994  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (tty_ioctl): Add support for the new ioctl
 | 
						|
		TIOCTTYGSTRUCT, which allow a kernel debugging program
 | 
						|
		direct read access to the tty and tty_driver structures.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Fri Nov 25 17:26:22 1994  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_set_termios): Don't wake up processes blocked in
 | 
						|
		open when the CLOCAL flag changes, since a blocking
 | 
						|
		open only samples the CLOCAL flag once when it blocks,
 | 
						|
		and doesn't check it again.  (n.b.  FreeBSD has a
 | 
						|
		different behavior for blocking opens; it's not clear
 | 
						|
		whether Linux or FreeBSD's interpretation is correct.
 | 
						|
		POSIX doesn't give clear guidance on this issue, so
 | 
						|
		this may change in the future....)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (block_til_ready): Use the correct termios structure to
 | 
						|
		check the CLOCAL flag.  If the cuaXX device is active,
 | 
						|
		then check the saved termios for the ttySXX device.
 | 
						|
		Otherwise, use the currently active termios structure.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sun Nov  6 21:05:44 1994  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (change_speed): Add support for direct access of
 | 
						|
		57,600 and 115,200 bps.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Wed Nov  2 10:32:36 1994  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* n_tty.c (n_tty_receive_room): Only allow excess characters
 | 
						|
		through if we are in ICANON mode *and* there are other no
 | 
						|
		pending lines in the buffer.  Otherwise cut and paste over
 | 
						|
		4k breaks.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sat Oct 29 18:17:34 1994  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_ioctl, get_lsr_info): Added patch suggested by Arne
 | 
						|
		Riiber so that user mode programs can tell when the
 | 
						|
		transmitter shift register is empty.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Thu Oct 27 23:14:29 1994  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_ioctl.c (wait_until_sent): Added debugging printk statements
 | 
						|
		(under the #ifdef TTY_DEBUG_WAIT_UNTIL_SENT)  
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_interrupt, rs_interrupt_single, receive_chars,
 | 
						|
		change_speed, rs_close): rs_close now disables receiver
 | 
						|
		interrupts when closing the serial port.  This allows the
 | 
						|
		serial port to close quickly when Linux and a modem (or a
 | 
						|
		mouse) are engaged in an echo war; when closing the serial
 | 
						|
		port, we now first stop listening to incoming characters,
 | 
						|
		and *then* wait for the transmit buffer to drain.  
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		In order to make this change, the info->read_status_mask
 | 
						|
		is now used to control what bits of the line status
 | 
						|
		register are looked at in the interrupt routine in all
 | 
						|
		cases; previously it was only used in receive_chars to
 | 
						|
		select a few of the status bits.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Mon Oct 24 23:36:21 1994  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_close): Add a timeout to the transmitter flush
 | 
						|
		loop; this is just a sanity check in case we have flaky
 | 
						|
		(or non-existent-but-configured-by-the-user) hardware.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Fri Oct 21 09:37:23 1994  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (tty_fasync): When asynchronous I/O is enabled, if the
 | 
						|
		process or process group has not be specified yet, set it
 | 
						|
		to be the tty's process group, or if that is not yet set,
 | 
						|
		to the current process's pid.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Thu Oct 20 23:17:28 1994  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* n_tty.c (n_tty_receive_room): If we are doing input
 | 
						|
		canonicalization, let as many characters through as
 | 
						|
		possible, so that the excess characters can be "beeped".
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Tue Oct 18 10:02:43 1994  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_start): Removed an incorrect '!' that was
 | 
						|
		preventing transmit interrupts from being re-enabled in
 | 
						|
		rs_start().  Fortunately in most cases it would be
 | 
						|
		re-enabled elsewhere, but this still should be fixed
 | 
						|
		correctly.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sun Oct  9 23:46:03 1994  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (do_tty_hangup): If the tty driver flags
 | 
						|
		TTY_DRIVER_RESET_TERMIOS is set, then reset the termios
 | 
						|
		settings back to the driver's initial configuration.  This
 | 
						|
		allows the termios settings to be reset even if a process
 | 
						|
		has hung up file descriptors keeping a pty's termios from
 | 
						|
		being freed and reset.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (release_dev): Fix memory leak.  The pty's other
 | 
						|
		termios structure should also be freed.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_close, shutdown): Change how we wait for the
 | 
						|
		transmitter to completely drain before shutting down the
 | 
						|
		serial port.  We now do it by scheduling in another
 | 
						|
		process instead of busy looping with the interrupts turned
 | 
						|
		on.  This may eliminate some race condition problems that
 | 
						|
		some people seem to be reporting.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sun Sep 25 14:18:14 1994  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (release_dev): When freeing a tty make sure that both
 | 
						|
		the tty and the o_tty (if present) aren't a process's
 | 
						|
		controlling tty.  (Previously, we only checked the tty.)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (change_speed): Only enable the Modem Status
 | 
						|
		Interrupt for a port if CLOCAL is not set or CRTSCTS
 | 
						|
		is set.  If we're not checking the carrier detect and
 | 
						|
		CTS line, there's no point in enabling the modem
 | 
						|
		status interrupt.  This will save spurious interrupts
 | 
						|
		from slowing down systems who have terminals that
 | 
						|
		don't support either line.  (Of course, if you want
 | 
						|
		only one of CD and CTS support, you will need a
 | 
						|
		properly wired serial cable.)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Thu Sep 22 08:32:48 1994  Theodore Y. Ts'o  (tytso@rt-11)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (do_SAK): Return if tty is null.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (_tty_name): Return "NULL tty" if the passed in tty is

	* tty_ioctl.c (n_tty_ioctl): Fix TIOCGLCKTRMIOS and
 | 
						|
		TIOCSLCKTRMIOS, which were totally broken.  Remove
 | 
						|
		extra indirection from argument; it should be a struct
 | 
						|
		termios *, not a struct termios **.
 | 
						|
		&real_tty->termios_locked should have been
 | 
						|
		real_tty->termios_locked.  This caused us to be
 | 
						|
		reading and writing the termios_locked structure to
 | 
						|
		random places in kernel memory.  
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (release_dev): Oops!  Forgot to delete a critical kfree
 | 
						|
		of the locked_termios.  This leaves the locked_termios
 | 
						|
		structure pointed at a freed object.

 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (tty_open): Don't check for an exclusive open until
 | 
						|
		after the device specific open routine has been called.
 | 
						|
		Otherwise, the serial device ref counting will be screwed
 | 
						|
		up.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_open, block_til_ready): Don't set termios structure
 | 
						|
		until after block_til_ready has returned successfully.
 | 
						|
		Modify block_til_ready to check the normal_termios
 | 
						|
		structure directly, so it doesn't rely on termios being
 | 
						|
		set before it's called.

 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* serial.c (rs_close): Turn off interrupts during rs_close() to
 | 
						|
		prevent a race condition with the hangup code (which
 | 
						|
		runs during a software interrupt).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (release_dev): Don't free the locked_termios structure;
 | 
						|
		its state must be retained across device opens.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* tty_io.c (tty_unregister_driver): Added function to unregister a
 | 
						|
		tty driver.  (For loadable device drivers.)
