Subject: [PATCH 00/41] TTY buffer in tty_port -- prep no. 4
Hi,
this is the fourth, and hopefully the last, series of patches which
allow tty buffers to be moved from tty_struct (present from open to
close/hangup) to tty_port (present as long as the device). This will
allow us to get rid of the tty refcounting in the interrupt service
routines and other hot paths after we are done. This is because we
will not need to handle races among ISRs, timers, hangups and others,
because tty_port lives as long as an interrupt/timer tick may occur.
Unlike tty_struct.
In this series, the fourth batch of drivers is converted to use
tty_port. Last time I promised that all drivers have a tty_port. It
was not really true. Now it should be. Here we also continued
assigning tty_port to tty_struct->port. And we should be done with
that here too. I.e. for all in-kernel drivers we have tty->port set
after driver->ops->install returns. So the TTY layer now finally has
an access to a tty_port in all of the drivers.
Now we can start moving tty buffers to tty_port and get rid of all the
refcounting as was mentioned above.
As usual, standard x86 stuff was runtime-tested. The rest is only
checked to be compilation-errors free.
