Subject: [PATCH v2 00/14] tty/serial flow control fixes
Date: Wed, 10 Sep 2014 15:06:22 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1410375996-4693-1-git-send-email-peter@hurleysoftware.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1409693975-1028-1-git-send-email-peter@hurleysoftware.com>

Hi Greg,

Changes since v1:
1. Omits v1 patches 1-12 which you already applied
2. Depends on 'locking: Add WARN_ON_ONCE lock assertion',
   which replaces v1 patch 13
3. Works around Alpha EV4/5 non-atomic byte/short storage
4. Works around gcc bug in versions < 4.7.2, where bitfield stores can
   corrupt adjacent storage on ia64, ppc64, sparc64 and 64-bit parisc arches
   https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52080

v1:

This patch series reworks the internals of tty and serial flow control to
fix multiple races in both START/STOP flow control and RTS/CTS flow control.

The main changes in this series are:
Patch 2 (v1 patch 15)
   Rename and move ASYNC_CTS_FLOW and ASYNC_CHECK_CD statuses into
   a private field for the serial core, and add helper functions to test
   those statuses for UART drivers.

   This is a necessary step toward making tty port->flags SMP-safe, without
   introducing a new lock.

Patches 1, 4 and 8 (v1 patches 14, 17 and 21)
   Make CTS flow control state SMP-safe, by moving hw_stopped into a private
   field of the serial core.

Patches 9-11 (v1 patches 22-24)
   Make tty flow control changes mutually exclusive.

   Protecting tty->stopped and tty->flow_stopped with a new spin lock (instead
   of the ->ctrl_lock) is required to fix multiple races with controlling
   terminal changes, coming in a follow-on patch series.

Patches 12 & 13 (v1 patches 25 & 26)
   Cleanup tcflow(TCIxxx)

Regards,

Peter Hurley (14):

  serial: core: Privatize modem status enable flags
