* tty: hvc_dcc: Fix duplicate character inputsStephen Boyd2011-11-151-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reading from the DCC grabs a character from the buffer and clears the status bit. Since this is a context-changing operation, instructions following the character read that rely on the status bit being accurate need to be synchronized with an ISB. In this case, the status bit check needs to execute after the character read otherwise we run the risk of reading the character and checking the status bit before the read can clear the status bit in the first place. When this happens, the user will see the same character they typed twice, instead of once. Add an ISB after the read and the write, so that the status check is synchronized with the read/write operations.

* hvc_dcc: Simplify assembly for v6 and v7 ARMStephen Boyd2011-02-031-24/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The inline assembly differences for v6 vs. v7 in the hvc_dcc driver are purely optimizations. On a v7 processor, an mrc with the pc sets the condition codes to the 28-31 bits of the register being read. It just so happens that the TX/RX full bits the DCC driver is testing for are high enough in the register to be put into the condition codes. On a v6 processor, this "feature" isn't implemented and thus we have to do the usual read, mask, test operations to check for TX/RX full. Since we already test the RX/TX full bits before calling __dcc_getchar() and __dcc_putchar() we don't actually need to do anything special for v7 over v6. The only difference is in hvc_dcc_get_chars(). We would test RX full, poll RX full, and then read a character from the buffer, whereas now we will test RX full, read a character from the buffer, and then test RX full again for the second iteration of the loop. It doesn't seem possible for the buffer to go from full to empty between testing the RX full and reading a character. Therefore, replace the v7 versions with the v6 versions and everything works the same.

* hvc_dcc: Simplify put_chars()/get_chars() loopsStephen Boyd2011-02-031-8/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | Casting and anding with 0xff is unnecessary in hvc_dcc_put_chars() since buf is already a char[]. __dcc_get_char() can't return an int less than 0 since it only returns a char. Simplify the if statement in hvc_dcc_get_chars() to take this into account.

* hvc_dcc: Fix bad code generation by marking assembly volatileStephen Boyd2011-02-031-6/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Without marking the asm __dcc_getstatus() volatile my compiler decides it can cache the value of __ret in a register and then check the value of it continually in hvc_dcc_put_chars() (I had to replace get_wait/put_wait with 1 and fixup the branch otherwise my disassembler barfed on __dcc_(get|put)char). 00000000 <hvc_dcc_put_chars>: 0: ee103e11 mrc 14, 0, r3, cr0, cr1, {0} 4: e3a0c000 mov ip, #0 ; 0x0 8: e2033202 and r3, r3, #536870912 ; 0x20000000 c: ea000006 b 2c <hvc_dcc_put_chars+0x2c> 10: e3530000 cmp r3, #0 ; 0x0 14: 1afffffd bne 10 <hvc_dcc_put_chars+0x10> 18: e7d1000c ldrb r0, [r1, ip] 1c: ee10fe11 mrc 14, 0, pc, cr0, cr1, {0} 20: 2afffffd bcs 1c <hvc_dcc_put_chars+0x1c> 24: ee000e15 mcr 14, 0, r0, cr0, cr5, {0} 28: e28cc001 add ip, ip, #1 ; 0x1 2c: e15c0002 cmp ip, r2 30: bafffff6 blt 10 <hvc_dcc_put_chars+0x10> 34: e1a00002 mov r0, r2 38: e12fff1e bx lr As you can see, the value of the mrc is checked against DCC_STATUS_TX (bit 29) and then stored in r3 for later use. Marking the asm volatile produces the following: 00000000 <hvc_dcc_put_chars>: 0: e3a03000 mov r3, #0 ; 0x0 4: ea000007 b 28 <hvc_dcc_put_chars+0x28> 8: ee100e11 mrc 14, 0, r0, cr0, cr1, {0} c: e3100202 tst r0, #536870912 ; 0x20000000 10: 1afffffc bne 8 <hvc_dcc_put_chars+0x8> 14: e7d10003 ldrb r0, [r1, r3] 18: ee10fe11 mrc 14, 0, pc, cr0, cr1, {0} 1c: 2afffffd bcs 18 <hvc_dcc_put_chars+0x18> 20: ee000e15 mcr 14, 0, r0, cr0, cr5, {0} 24: e2833001 add r3, r3, #1 ; 0x1 28: e1530002 cmp r3, r2 2c: bafffff5 blt 8 <hvc_dcc_put_chars+0x8> 30: e1a00002 mov r0, r2 34: e12fff1e bx lr which looks better and actually works. Mark all the inline assembly in this file as volatile since we don't want the compiler to optimize away these statements or move them around in any way.

* tty: move hvc drivers to drivers/tty/hvc/Greg Kroah-Hartman2011-01-131-0/+133
As requested by Arnd Bergmann, the hvc drivers are now moved to the drivers/tty/hvc/ directory. The virtio_console.c driver was also moved, as it required the hvc_console.h file to be able to be built, and it really is a hvc driver.
