Subject: [PATCH] VirtioConsole support.
Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2011 11:39:53 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1319740793-2187-1-git-send-email-miche@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20111027173527.GA23839@phenom.dumpdata.com>
Multiple HVC console terminals enabled.
Serialize device and port open and initialization. Added a mutex
which gates the handling of control messages in virtio_console.c.
This includes adding and removing ports, and making opened ports be
consoles. Extended the use of the prvdata spinlock to cover some missed
modifications to prvdata.next_vtermno.
I also added a mutex in hvc_console::hvc_alloc() to coordinate waiting
for the driver to be ready, and for the one-time call to hvc_init(). It
had been the case that this was sometimes being called mulitple times, and
partially setup state was being used by the second caller of hvc_alloc().
Make separate struct console* for each new port. There was a single static
struct console* hvc_console, to be used for early printk. We aren't doing
early printk, but more importantly, there is no code to multiplex on that
one console. Multiple virtio_console ports were "sharing" this, which was
disasterous since both the index and the flags for the console are stored
there. The console struct is remembered in the hvc_struct, and it is
deallocated when the hvc_struct is deallocated.
------------------
Konrad, thanks for trying this out on Xen.
This is working in my KVM environment, letting me start multiple
virtio_consoles with getty's on them, but I'm really not sure how
all the console pieces fit together yet. Feedback is welcome.
