74da5d68a5 USB: cdc-acm: fix sysfs attribute registration bug
This patch (as950) fixes a bug in the cdc-acm driver.  It doesn't keep
track of which interface (control or data) the sysfs attributes get
registered for, and as a result, during disconnect it will sometimes
attempt to remove the attributes from the wrong interface.  The
left-over attributes can cause a crash later on, particularly if the driver
module has been unloaded.

10e485221e USB: usblp: "Big cleanup" breaks O_NONBLOCK
I found the first regresson in the rewritten ("all dynamic" and "no races")
driver. If application uses O_NONBLOCK, I return -EAGAIN despite the URB
being submitted successfuly. This causes the application to resubmit the
same data erroneously.

The fix is to pretend that the transfer has succeeded even if URB was
merely queued. It is the same behaviour as with the old version.

317c67b8f7 USB: usblp: add dynamic URBs, fix races
This patch's main bulk aims to make usblp the premier driver for code
pillaging once again. The code is as streamlined as possible and is bug-free
as possible. The usb-skeleton performs the same function, but is somewhat
abstract. The usblp is usb-skeleton which is actually used by many.

Since I combed a few small bugs away, this also fixes the small races we
had in usblp for a while. For example, now it's possible for several threads
to make write(2) calls (sounds silly, but consider a printer for paper
record, where every line of text is self-contained and thus it's all right
to have them interleaved). Also gone are issues with interrupts using
barriers dangerously.

This patch makes use of Oliver's anchor, and so it must trail the anchor
patch on the way to Linus.

5ec71db59a usblp: quirk flag and device entry for Seiko Epson M129C printer
This patch (as872) adds a device table entry and a new quirk flag to
the usblp driver for the Seiko Epson Receipt printer.  This printer
returns Vendor-Specific values for bInterfaceClass and
bInterfaceSubClass, but the bInterfaceProtocol value is valid and it
works with usblp.  The new quirks flag tells the driver to ignore the
Class and SubClass values in the interface descriptor.

4f45d0387b USB: usblp.c - add Kyocera Mita FS 820 to list of "quirky" printers
This patch gets the Kyocera FS-820 working with cups 1.2 via usb again. It
adds the printer to the list of "quirky" printers. The printer seems not
answer to ID requests some seconds after plugging in. Patch is based on
linux-2.6.19.1.

Background:
As far as I could see (strace, usbmon), the Kyocera FS-820 answers to ID
requests only a few seconds after plugging it in. This applies to detecting
it with cups and is also true for the printing itself, which is initiated
with an ID request. Since I have little usb knowledge, maybe someone can
interpret the data, especially the fist bulk transfer - why request 8192
bytes? This is the second version of the patch.

606d099cdd [PATCH] tty: switch to ktermios
This is the grungy swap all the occurrences in the right places patch that
goes with the updates.  At this point we have the same functionality as
before (except that sgttyb() returns speeds not zero) and are ready to
begin turning new stuff on providing nobody reports lots of bugs

If you are a tty driver author converting an out of tree driver the only
impact should be termios->ktermios name changes for the speed/property
setting functions from your upper layers.

If you are implementing your own TCGETS function before then your driver
was broken already and its about to get a whole lot more painful for you so
please fix it 8)

Also fill in c_ispeed/ospeed on init for most devices, although the current
code will do this for you anyway but I'd like eventually to lose that extra
paranoia

7d12e780e0 IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.

b68e31d0eb [PATCH] const struct tty_operations
As part of an SMP cleanliness pass over UML, I consted a bunch of
structures in order to not have to document their locking.  One of these
structures was a struct tty_operations.  In order to const it in UML
without introducing compiler complaints, the declaration of
tty_set_operations needs to be changed, and then all of its callers need to
be fixed.

This patch declares all struct tty_operations in the tree as const.  In all
cases, they are static and used only as input to tty_set_operations.  As an
extra check, I ran an i386 allyesconfig build which produced no extra
warnings.

53 drivers are affected.  I checked the history of a bunch of them, and in
most cases, there have been only a handful of maintenance changes in the
last six months.  serial_core.c was the busiest one that I looked at.

33f0f88f1c [PATCH] TTY layer buffering revamp
The API and code have been through various bits of initial review by
serial driver people but they definitely need to live somewhere for a
while so the unconverted drivers can get knocked into shape, existing
drivers that have been updated can be better tuned and bugs whacked out.

This replaces the tty flip buffers with kmalloc objects in rings. In the
normal situation for an IRQ driven serial port at typical speeds the
behaviour is pretty much the same, two buffers end up allocated and the
kernel cycles between them as before.

When there are delays or at high speed we now behave far better as the
buffer pool can grow a bit rather than lose characters. This also means
that we can operate at higher speeds reliably.

For drivers that receive characters in blocks (DMA based, USB and
especially virtualisation) the layer allows a lot of driver specific
code that works around the tty layer with private secondary queues to be
removed. The IBM folks need this sort of layer, the smart serial port
people do, the virtualisers do (because a virtualised tty typically
operates at infinite speed rather than emulating 9600 baud).

Finally many drivers had invalid and unsafe attempts to avoid buffer
overflows by directly invoking tty methods extracted out of the innards
of work queue structs. These are no longer needed and all go away. That
fixes various random hangs with serial ports on overflow.

The other change in here is to optimise the receive_room path that is
used by some callers. It turns out that only one ldisc uses receive room
except asa constant and it updates it far far less than the value is
read. We thus make it a variable not a function call.

I expect the code to contain bugs due to the size alone but I'll be
watching and squashing them and feeding out new patches as it goes.

Because the buffers now dynamically expand you should only run out of
buffering when the kernel runs out of memory for real.  That means a lot of
the horrible hacks high performance drivers used to do just aren't needed any
more.

Description:

tty_insert_flip_char is an old API and continues to work as before, as does
tty_flip_buffer_push() [this is why many drivers dont need modification].  It
does now also return the number of chars inserted

There are also

tty_buffer_request_room(tty, len)

which asks for a buffer block of the length requested and returns the space
found.  This improves efficiency with hardware that knows how much to
transfer.

and tty_insert_flip_string_flags(tty, str, flags, len)

to insert a string of characters and flags

For a smart interface the usual code is

    len = tty_request_buffer_room(tty, amount_hardware_says);
    tty_insert_flip_string(tty, buffer_from_card, len);

More description!

At the moment tty buffers are attached directly to the tty.  This is causing a
lot of the problems related to tty layer locking, also problems at high speed
and also with bursty data (such as occurs in virtualised environments)

I'm working on ripping out the flip buffers and replacing them with a pool of
dynamically allocated buffers.  This allows both for old style "byte I/O"
devices and also helps virtualisation and smart devices where large blocks of
data suddenely materialise and need storing.

So far so good.  Lots of drivers reference tty->flip.*.  Several of them also
call directly and unsafely into function pointers it provides.  This will all
break.  Most drivers can use tty_insert_flip_char which can be kept as an API
but others need more.

At the moment I've added the following interfaces, if people think more will
be needed now is a good time to say

 int tty_buffer_request_room(tty, size)

Try and ensure at least size bytes are available, returns actual room (may be
zero).  At the moment it just uses the flipbuf space but that will change.
Repeated calls without characters being added are not cumulative.  (ie if you
call it with 1, 1, 1, and then 4 you'll have four characters of space.  The
other functions will also try and grow buffers in future but this will be a
more efficient way when you know block sizes.

 int tty_insert_flip_char(tty, ch, flag)

As before insert a character if there is room.  Now returns 1 for success, 0
for failure.

 int tty_insert_flip_string(tty, str, len)

Insert a block of non error characters.  Returns the number inserted.

 int tty_prepare_flip_string(tty, strptr, len)

Adjust the buffer to allow len characters to be added.  Returns a buffer
pointer in strptr and the length available.  This allows for hardware that
needs to use functions like insl or mencpy_fromio.

a9714c845c [PATCH] USB: Export IEEE-1284 device id in sysfs for usblp devices
I looked at the userspace code which uses the LPIOC_GET_DEVICE_ID ioctl
and I almost went blind. Let's export it in sysfs instead, and just as a
string instead of with a big-endian length at the beginning of it.

This also prints the message about finding the printer _after_ we know
the minor device number it's going to have, rather than reporting all
printers as 'usblp0'.

318e479eb7 [PATCH] USB: ioctl compat for usblp.c
From: David Woodhouse <dwmw2>

David has a G5 with a printer. I am quite surprised that nobody else noticed
this before. Linus has a G5. Hackers hate printing in general, maybe.

We do not use BKL anymore, because one of code paths had a sleeping call,
so we had to use a semaphore. I am sure it's safe to use unlocked_ioctl.

The new ioctls return long and retval is int. It looks completely fine to me.
We never want these extra bits, and the sign extension ought to work right.
