15b99ac172 [PATCH] pcmcia: add return value to _config() functions
Most of the driver initialization isn't done in the .probe function, but in
the internal _config() functions. Make them return a value, so that .probe
can properly report whether the probing of the device succeeded or not.

0a34eb8f55 [PATCH] isdn4linux: Siemens Gigaset drivers - Kconfigs and Makefiles
And: Tilman Schmidt <tilman@imap.cc>

The following patches add drivers for the Siemens Gigaset 3070 family of ISDN
DECT PABXes connected via USB, either directly or over a DECT link using a
Gigaset M105 or compatible DECT data adapter.  The devices are integrated as
ISDN adapters within the isdn4linux framework, supporting incoming and
outgoing voice and data connections, and also as tty devices providing access
to device specific AT commands.

Supported devices include models 3070, 3075, 4170, 4175, SX205, SX255, and
SX353 from the Siemens Gigaset product family, as well as the technically
identical models 45isdn and 721X from the Deutsche Telekom Sinus series.
Supported DECT adapters are the Gigaset M105 data and the technically
identical Gigaset USB Adapter DECT, Sinus 45 data 2, and Sinus 721 data (but
not the Gigaset M34 and Sinus 702 data which advertise themselves as CDC-ACM
devices).

These drivers have been developed over the last four years within the
SourceForge project http://sourceforge.net/projects/gigaset307x/.  They are
being used successfully in several installations for dial-in Internet access
and for voice call switching with Asterisk.

This is our second attempt at submitting these drivers, taking into account
the comments we received to our first submission on 2005-12-11.

The patch set adds three kernel modules:

- a common module "gigaset" encapsulating the common logic for
  controlling the PABX and the interfaces to userspace and the
  isdn4linux subsystem.

- a connection-specific module "bas_gigaset" which handles
  communication with the PABX over a direct USB connection.

- a connection-specific module "usb_gigaset" which does the same
  for a DECT connection using the Gigaset M105 USB DECT adapter.

We also have a module "ser_gigaset" which supports the Gigaset M101 RS232 DECT
adapter, but we didn't judge it fit for inclusion in the kernel, as it does
direct programming of a i8250 serial port.  It should probably be rewritten as
a serial line discipline but so far we lack the neccessary knowledge about
writing a line discipline for that.

The drivers have been working with kernel releases 2.2 and 2.4 as well as 2.6,
and although we took efforts to remove the compatibility code for this
submission, it probably still shows in places.  Please make allowances.

This patch:

Prepare the kernel build infrastructure for addition of the Gigaset ISDN
drivers.  It creates a Makefile and Kconfig file for the Gigaset driver and
hooks them into those of the isdn4linux subsystem.  It also adds a MAINTAINERS
entry for the driver.

This patch depends on patches 2 to 9 of the present set, as without the actual
source files, activating the options added here will cause the kernel build to
fail.

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.

6a878184c2 [PATCH] Eliminate __attribute__ ((packed)) warnings for gcc-4.1
Since version 4.1 the gcc is warning about ignored attributes. This patch is
using the equivalent attribute on the struct instead of on each of the
structure or union members.

GCC Manual:
  "Specifying Attributes of Types

   packed
    This attribute, attached to struct or union type definition, specifies
    that
    each member of the structure or union is placed to minimize the memory
    required. When attached to an enum definition, it indicates that the
    smallest integral type should be used.

    Specifying this attribute for struct and union types is equivalent to
    specifying the packed attribute on each of the structure or union
    members."

f8cfa618dc [PATCH] pcmcia: unify attach, EVENT_CARD_INSERTION handlers into one probe callback
Unify the EVENT_CARD_INSERTION and "attach" callbacks to one unified
probe() callback. As all in-kernel drivers are changed to this new
callback, there will be no temporary backwards-compatibility. Inside a
probe() function, each driver _must_ set struct pcmcia_device
*p_dev->instance and instance->handle correctly.

With these patches, the basic driver interface for 16-bit PCMCIA drivers
now has the classic four callbacks known also from other buses:

        int (*probe)            (struct pcmcia_device *dev);
        void (*remove)          (struct pcmcia_device *dev);

        int (*suspend)          (struct pcmcia_device *dev);
        int (*resume)           (struct pcmcia_device *dev);
