Greg Kroah-Hartman 68e2411345 USB: serial: rework usb_serial_register/deregister_drivers()
This reworks the usb_serial_register_drivers() and
usb_serial_deregister_drivers() to not need a pointer to a struct
usb_driver anymore.  The usb_driver structure is now created dynamically
and registered and unregistered as needed.

This saves lines of code in each usb-serial driver.  All in-kernel users
of these functions were also fixed up at this time.  The pl2303 driver
was tested that everything worked properly.

Thanks for the idea to do this from Alan Stern.

Alan Stern f9c99bb8b3 USB: usb-serial: replace shutdown with disconnect, release
This patch (as1254) splits up the shutdown method of usb_serial_driver
into a disconnect and a release method.

The problem is that the usb-serial core was calling shutdown during
disconnect handling, but drivers didn't expect it to be called until
after all the open file references had been closed.  The result was an
oops when the close method tried to use memory that had been
deallocated by shutdown.

Julia Lawall 2e0fe70968 USB: drivers: use USB API functions rather than constants
This set of patches introduces calls to the following set of functions:

usb_endpoint_dir_in(epd)
usb_endpoint_dir_out(epd)
usb_endpoint_is_bulk_in(epd)
usb_endpoint_is_bulk_out(epd)
usb_endpoint_is_int_in(epd)
usb_endpoint_is_int_out(epd)
usb_endpoint_num(epd)
usb_endpoint_type(epd)
usb_endpoint_xfer_bulk(epd)
usb_endpoint_xfer_control(epd)
usb_endpoint_xfer_int(epd)
usb_endpoint_xfer_isoc(epd)

In some cases, introducing one of these functions is not possible, and it
just replaces an explicit integer value by one of the following constants:

USB_ENDPOINT_XFER_BULK
USB_ENDPOINT_XFER_CONTROL
USB_ENDPOINT_XFER_INT
USB_ENDPOINT_XFER_ISOC

An extract of the semantic patch that makes these changes is as follows:

Alan Cox 95da310e66 usb_serial: API all change
USB serial likes to use port->tty back pointers for the real work it does and
to do so without any actual locking. Unfortunately when you consider hangup
events, hangup/parallel reopen or even worse hangup followed by parallel close
events the tty->port and port->tty pointers are not guaranteed to be the same
as port->tty is the active tty while tty->port is the port the tty may or
may not still be attached to.

So rework the entire API to pass the tty struct. For console cases we need
to pass both for now. This shows up multiple drivers that immediately crash
with USB console some of which have been fixed in the process.

Longer term we need a proper tty as console abstraction

Rainer Weikusat fdcba53e2d fix for bugzilla #7544 (keyspan USB-to-serial converter)
At least the Keyspan USA-19HS USB-to-serial converter supports
two different configurations, one where the input endpoints
have interrupt transfer type and one where they are bulk endpoints.
The default UHCI configuration uses the interrupt input endpoints.
The keyspan driver, OTOH, assumes that the device has only bulk
endpoints (all URBs are initialized by calling usb_fill_bulk_urb
in keyspan.c/ keyspan_setup_urb). This causes the interval field
of the input URBs to have a value of zero instead of one, which
'accidentally' worked with Linux at least up to 2.6.17.11 but
stopped to with 2.6.18, which changed the UHCI support code handling
URBs for interrupt endpoints. The patch below modifies to driver to
initialize its input URBs either as interrupt or as bulk URBs,
depending on the transfertype contained in the associated endpoint
descriptor (only tested with the default configuration) enabling
the driver to again receive data from the serial converter.

Greg K-H reworked the patch.

goes with the updates.  At this point we have the same functionality as
before (except that sgttyb() returns speeds not zero) and are ready to

If you are a tty driver author converting an out of tree driver the only
impact should be termios->ktermios name changes for the speed/property
setting functions from your upper layers.

If you are implementing your own TCGETS function before then your driver
was broken already and its about to get a whole lot more painful for you so
please fix it 8)

Also fill in c_ispeed/ospeed on init for most devices, although the current
code will do this for you anyway but I'd like eventually to lose that extra
paranoia

David Howells 7d12e780e0 IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.

Greg Kroah-Hartman a969888ce9 [PATCH] USB: move usb-serial.h to include/linux/usb/
USB serial outside of the kernel tree can not build properly due to
usb-serial.h being buried down in the source tree.  This patch moves the
location of the file to include/linux/usb and fixes up all of the usb
serial drivers to handle the move properly.

Pete Zaitcev cf2c7481d2 [PATCH] USB serial: encapsulate schedule_work, remove double-calling
I'm going to throw schedule_work away, it's retarded. But for starters,
let's have it encapsulated.

Also, generic and whiteheat were both calling usb_serial_port_softint
and scheduled work. Only one was necessary.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
