Alan Cox fc6f623822 pty: simplify resize
We have special case logic for resizing pty/tty pairs. We also have a per
driver resize method so for the pty case we should use it.

Joe Peterson a88a69c912 n_tty: Fix loss of echoed characters and remove bkl from n_tty
Fixes the loss of echoed (and other ldisc-generated characters) when
the tty is stopped or when the driver output buffer is full (happens
frequently for input during continuous program output, such as ^C)
and removes the Big Kernel Lock from the N_TTY line discipline.

Adds an "echo buffer" to the N_TTY line discipline that handles all
ldisc-generated output (including echoed characters).  Along with the
loss of characters, this also fixes the associated loss of sync between
tty output and the ldisc state when characters cannot be immediately
written to the tty driver.

The echo buffer stores (in addition to characters) state operations that need
to be done at the time of character output (like management of the column
position).  This allows echo to cooperate correctly with program output,
since the ldisc state remains consistent with actual characters written.

Since the echo buffer code now isolates the tty column state code
to the process_out* and process_echoes functions, we can remove the
Big Kernel Lock (BKL) and replace it with mutex locks.

Highlights are:

* Handles echo (and other ldisc output) when tty driver buffer is full
  - continuous program output can block echo
* Saves echo when tty is in stopped state (e.g. ^S)
  - (e.g.: ^Q will correctly cause held characters to be released for output)
* Control character pairs (e.g. "^C") are treated atomically and not
  split up by interleaved program output
* Line discipline state is kept consistent with characters sent to
  the tty driver
* Remove the big kernel lock (BKL) from N_TTY line discipline

Al Viro 1e641743f0 Audit: Log TIOCSTI
AUDIT_TTY records currently log all data read by processes marked for
TTY input auditing, even if the data was "pushed back" using the TIOCSTI
ioctl, not typed by the user.

This patch records all TIOCSTI calls to disambiguate the input.  It
generates one audit message per character pushed back; considering
TIOCSTI is used very rarely, this simple solution is probably good
enough.  (The only program I could find that uses TIOCSTI is mailx/nail
in "header editing" mode, e.g. using the ~h escape.  mailx is used very
rarely, and the escapes are used even rarer.)

Ingo Molnar 14bfc987e3 tracing, tty: fix warnings caused by branch tracing and tty_kref_get()
Stephen Rothwell reported tht this warning started triggering in
linux-next:

  In file included from init/main.c:27:
  include/linux/tty.h: In function ‘tty_kref_get’:
  include/linux/tty.h:330: warning: ‘______f’ is static but declared in inline function ‘tty_kref_get’ which is not static

Which gcc emits for 'extern inline' functions that nevertheless define
static variables. Change it to 'static inline', which is the norm
in the kernel anyway.

Carry on pushing code out of tty_io when it belongs to other drivers. I'm
not 100% happy with some of this and it will be worth revisiting some of the

Alan Cox feebed6515 tty: shutdown method
Right now there are various drivers that try to use tty->count to know when
they get the final close. Aristeau Rozanski showed while debugging the vt
sysfs race that this isn't entirely safe.

Instead of driver side tricks to work around this introduce a shutdown which
is called when the tty is being destructed. This also means that the shutdown
method is tied into the refcounting.

Use this to rework the console close/sysfs logic.

Remove lots of special case code from the tty core code. The pty code can now
have a shutdown() method that replaces the special case hackery in the tree
free up paths.

Alan Cox 4a90f09b20 tty: usb-serial krefs
Use kref in the USB serial drivers so that we don't free tty structures
from under the URB receive handlers as has historically been the case if
you were unlucky. This also gives us a framework for general tty drivers to
use tty_port objects and refcount.

Contains two err->dev_err changes merged together to fix clashes in the
-next tree.

Alan Cox 1d65b4a088 tty: Add termiox
We need a way to describe the various additional modes and flow control
features that random weird hardware shows up and software such as wine
wants to emulate as Windows supports them.

TCGETX/TCSETX and the termiox ioctl are a SYS5 extension that we might as
well adopt. This patches adds the structures and the basic ioctl interfaces
when the TCGETX etc defines are added for an architecture. Drivers wishing
to use this stuff need to add new methods.

Every tty driver has its own concept of a port structure and because
they all differ we cannot extract commonality.  Begin fixing this by
creating a structure drivers can elect to use so that over time we can
push fields into this and create commonality and then introduce common
methods.

Alan Cox a352def21a tty: Ldisc revamp
Move the line disciplines towards a conventional ->ops arrangement.  For
the moment the actual 'tty_ldisc' struct in the tty is kept as part of
the tty struct but this can then be changed if it turns out that when it
all settles down we want to refcount ldiscs separately to the tty.

Pull the ldisc code out of /proc and put it with our ldisc code.
