Subject: Re: [PATCH] usb: gadget: Add the console support for usb-to-serial
port

I have some high level concerns.
1. I would defer registering the console until the port has at least been
allocated in gserial_alloc_line(), and unregister when the line is freed.
That also reduces many of the conditions that you shouldn't need to
check, like port number range and so on.
Further, consider deferring the console registration until gserial_connect();
that would further simplify things. In this case, unregistration would
happen at disconnect.
2. Why are you using a kworker for actual device i/o when all of the i/o
is done with interrupts disabled anyway?
Getting rid of the work would eliminate using the 8K intermediate buffer
as well.
3. If for some reason i/o deferral is really necessary, consider using a kthread
kworker instead of the pooled kworker. The scheduler response will be _way_
better.
4. If for some reason i/o deferral is really necessary, use a circular buffer
for the intermediate buffer, preferably lockless since there is only
one producer and one consumer.
Some other review comments below; please ignore anything other reviewers
have already noted.

Peter Hurley

Make struct gscons_info a static declaration instead of
allocating it.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
With only a single caller that uses a symbolic constant, is the
'buffer_size' parameter necessary?

Pass the console * as parameter, instead of forward declaring the console.
Or initialize info directly from the static struct gscons_info address.

Looking at the caller, gserial_connect(), none of the error
conditions above look possible.

Where is port->console_req assigned to?

Remove redundant error message; the allocator has already done so.

What is preventing concurrently running work and this from
using/modifying the info->buf and info->buf_tail simultaneously?
