2012-03-08TTY: simserial, use tty_port_hangupJiri Slaby
Convert shutdown to be tty_port_operations->shutdown. Then we can use tty_port_hangup. (And we have to use tty_port_close.) This means we no longer touch ASYNC_INITIALIZED, TTY_IO_ERROR. Also we do not need to do any peculiar TTY logic in the file now.

2012-03-08TTY: simserial, use tty_port_openJiri Slaby
So now we convert startup to be ->activate of tty_port. This means we no longer care about INITIALIZED and TTY_IO_ERROR flags. After we have ->activate much of the code may go as it duplicates what tty_port_open does. In this case tty_port_open adds block_til_ready to the path. But we do not define carrier hooks, so it is a noop.

2012-03-08TTY: simserial, remove static initializationJiri Slaby
We do not use any of the preinitialized rs_state members for something real. So there is no need to initialize them. At the places we used them for printing, just print the values. And since only one port is supported, get rid of the loop. This simplifies simrs_init a heap. Thus we can handle fail paths in a standard way without panicing.

2012-03-08TTY: amiserial, simplify set_serial_infoJiri Slaby
Do not copy whole serial_state. We only need to know whether the speed is to be changed. Hence store the info in advance and use it later. A simple bool is enough.

2012-03-08TTY: amiserial, remove IRQ_portsJiri Slaby
They used to work as a storage for 'info' pointer used in ISRs. They are not really needed. Just pass the pointer through request_irq to the handlers. It was set to NULL and tested in the ISRs, but we do not need the tests as we disable all the interrupts at the same places where NULL sets were.

2012-03-08TTY: simserial, remove support of shared interruptsJiri Slaby
It never worked there. The ISR was never written for that kind of stuff. So remove all that crap with a hash of linked lists and pass the pointer directly to the ISR. BTW this answers the question there: * I don't know exactly why they don't use the dev_id opaque data * pointer instead of this extra lookup table -> Because they thought they will support more devices bound to a single interrupt w/o IRQF_SHARED. They would need exactly the hash there. What I don't understand is rebinding of the interrupt in the shutdown path. They perhaps meant to do just synchronize_irq? In any case, this is all gone and free_irq there properly. By removing the hash we save some bits (exactly NR_IRQS * 8 bytes of .bss and over a kilo of .text): before: text data bss dec hex filename 19600 320 8227 28147 6df3 ../a/ia64/arch/ia64/hp/sim/simserial.o after: text data bss dec hex filename 18568 320 28 18916 49e4 ../a/ia64/arch/ia64/hp/sim/simserial.o Note that a shared interrupt could not work too. request_irq requires data parameter to be non-NULL. So the whole IRQ_T exercise was pointless. Finally, this helps us remove another two members of async_struct :).

2012-03-08simserial, bail out when request_irq failsJiri Slaby
Without this, the code succeeds when the port is opened by root and we get unwanted interrupts storm on the first key stroke. Instead of that, tell the user we failed and that we won't continue. I suppose, the code was copied from the serial layer where we may want to change the irq number, so we must allow open even of the failing port. This is not the case for this driver at all.

2012-03-08hpsim, initialize chip for assigned irqsJiri Slaby
Currently, when assign_irq_vector is called and the irq connected in the simulator, the irq is not ready. request_irq will return ENOSYS immediately. It is because the irq chip is unset. Hence set the chip properly to irq_type_hp_sim. And make sure this is done from both users of simulated interrupts. Also we have to set handler here, otherwise we end up in handle_bad_int resulting in spam in logs and no irqs handled. We use handle_simple_irq as these are SW interrupts that need no ACK or anything.

2012-03-08hpsim, fix SAL handling in fw-emuJiri Slaby
The switch-cases of SAL_FREQ_BASE generate non-relocatable code. The same as for the ifs one level upper. This causes oopses early in boot because the kernel jumps to the hell instead of the offset in sal callback. So use ifs here for SAL_FREQ_BASE decision too.

2012-03-08TTY: serialP, remove unused materialJiri Slaby
First, remove unused macro and rs_multiport_struct structure. Nobody uses them at all. Further, the 2 drivers (they are below) which use the rest of structures from serialP.h (async_struct and serial_state) do not use all the members. Remove the members: * which are unused or * which are only initialized and never used for something real. Everybody should avoid the structures with a looong distance. Finally, remove the ALPHA kludge MCR quirks. They are 1:1 copy from 8250.h. No need to redefine them here.

2012-03-08TTY: tty_driver, document tty->ops->shutdown limitationJiri Slaby
Note that tty->ops->shutdown is called from whatever context the user drops the last tty reference from. E.g. if one takes a reference in an ISR, tty close happens on other CPU and the final tty put is from the ISR, tty->ops->shutdown will be called from that hard irq context. We would have a problem in vt if we start using tty refcounting from other contexts than user there. It is because vt's shutdown uses mutexes. This is yet to be fixed.
