2010-06-03virtio: console: Fix crash when port is unplugged and blocked for writeAmit Shah1-0/+4
When a program that has a virtio port opened and blocked for a write operation, a port hot-unplug event will later led to a crash when SIGTERM was sent to the program. Fix that. Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2010-05-19drivers/char: Eliminate use after freeJulia Lawall1-4/+4
In each case, the first argument to send_control_msg or __send_control_msg, respectively, has either not been successfully allocated or has been freed at the point of the call. In the first case, the first argument, port, is only used to access the portdev and id fields, in order to call __send_control_msg. Thus it seems possible instead to call __send_control_msg directly. In the second case, the call to __send_control_msg is moved up to a place where it seems like the first argument, portdev, has been initialized sufficiently to make the call to __send_control_msg meaningful. This has only been compile tested. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @free@ expression E; position p; @@ kfree@p(E) @@ expression free.E, subE<=free.E, E1; position free.p; @@ kfree@p(E) ...

2010-05-19virtio: console: Accept console size along with resize control messageAmit Shah1-1/+12
The VIRTIO_CONSOLE_RESIZE control message sent to us by the host now contains the new {rows, cols} values for the console. This ensures each console port gets its own size, and we don't depend on the config-space rows and cols values at all now.

2010-05-19virtio: console: Store each console's size in the console structureAmit Shah1-12/+31
With support for multiple consoles, just using one {rows,cols} pair in the config space is not going to suffice. Store each console's size as part of the console struct. This changes the behaviour for one case when multiport is not enabled: when notifier_add_vio() is called, the console size is taken from that of the last config-space update instead of fetching it afresh from the config space. Also add a helper to update the size in the console struct as we'll need to use the same code to update the size via control messages when multiport support is enabled.

2010-05-19virtio: console: Add support for nonblocking write()sAmit Shah1-8/+111
If the host port is not open, a write() should either just return if the file is opened in non-blocking mode, or block till the host port is opened. Also, don't spin till host consumes data for nonblocking ports. For non-blocking ports, we can do away with the spinning and reclaim the buffers consumed by the host on the next write call or on the condition that'll make poll return.

2010-05-19virtio: console: Don't always create a port 0 if using multiportAmit Shah1-17/+15

2010-05-19virtio: console: Use a control message to add portsAmit Shah1-44/+33
Instead of the host and guest independently enumerating ports, switch to a control message to add ports where the host supplies the port number so there's no ambiguity or a possibility of a race between the host and the guest port numbers. We now no longer need the 'nr_ports' config value. Since no kernel has been released with the MULTIPORT changes yet, we have a chance to fiddle with the config space without adding compatibility features. This is beneficial for management software, which would now be able to instantiate ports at known locations and avoid problems that arise with implicit numbering in the host and the guest. This removes the 'guessing game' part of it, and management software can now actually indicate which id to spawn a particular port on.

2010-05-19virtio: console: Don't call hvc_remove() on unplugging console portsAmit Shah1-0/+11
hvc_remove() has some bug which freezes other active hvc ports when one port is removed. So disable calling of hvc_remove() which deregisters a port with the hvc_console. If the hvc_console code calls into our get_chars() routine as a result of a poll operation, we will return -EPIPE and the hvc_console code will then do the necessary cleanup. This call will be restored when the bug in hvc_remove() is found and fixed. Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

This reverts commit b7a413015d2986edf020fba765c906cc9cbcbfc9. Multiport support was disabled for 2.6.34 because we wanted to introduce a new ABI and since we didn't have any released kernel with the older ABI and were out of the merge window, it didn't make sense keeping the older ABI around. Now we revert the patch disabling multiport and rework the ABI in the following patches. Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2010-04-08virtio: console makes incorrect assumption about virtio APIRusty Russell1-7/+3

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo1-0/+1
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2010-02-24virtio: console: Add a new MULTIPORT feature, support for generic portsAmit Shah1-56/+336
This commit adds a new feature, MULTIPORT. If the host supports this feature as well, the config space has the number of ports defined for that device. New ports are spawned according to this information. The config space also has the maximum number of ports that can be spawned for a particular device. This is useful in initializing the appropriate number of virtqueues in advance, as ports might be hot-plugged in later. Using this feature, generic ports can be created which are not tied to hvc consoles. We also open up a private channel between the host and the guest via which some "control" messages are exchanged for the ports, like whether the port being spawned is a console port, resizing the console window, etc. Next commits will add support for hotplugging and presenting char devices in /dev/ for bi-directional guest-host communication.
