The whole write-room thing is something that is up to the _caller_ to
worry about, not the pty layer itself. The total buffer space will
still be limited by the buffering routines themselves, so there is no
advantage or need in having pty_write() artificially limit the size
somehow.
And what happened was that the caller (the n_tty line discipline, in
this case) may have verified that there is room for 2 bytes to be
written (for NL -> CRNL expansion), and it used to then do those writes
as two single-byte writes. And if the first byte written (CR) then
caused a new tty buffer to be allocated, pty_space() may have returned
zero when trying to write the second byte (LF), and then incorrectly
failed the write - leading to a lost newline character.
This should finally fix

When translating CR to CRNL in the n_tty line discipline, we did it as
two tty_put_char() calls. Which works, but is stupid, and has caused
problems before too with bad interactions with the write_room() logic.
The generic USB serial driver had that problem, for example.
Now the pty layer had similar issues after being moved to the generic
tty buffering code (in commit d945cb9cce20ac7143c2de8d88b187f62db99bdc:
"pty: Rework the pty layer to use the normal buffering logic").
So stop doing the silly separate two writes, and do it as a single write
instead. That's what the n_tty layer already does for the space
expansion of tabs (XTABS), and it means that we'll now always have just
a single write for the CRNL to match the single 'tty_write_room()' test,
which hopefully means that the next time somebody screws up buffering,
it won't cause weeks of debugging.

When I rewrote tty ldisc code to use proper reference counts (commits
65b770468e and cbe9352fa0) in order to avoid a race with hangup, the
test-program that Eric Biederman used to trigger the original problem
seems to have exposed another long-standing bug: the hangup code did the
'tty_ldisc_halt()' to stop any buffer flushing activity, but unlike the
other call sites it never actually flushed any pending work.
As a result, if you get just the right timing, the pending work may be
just about to execute (ie the timer has already triggered and thus
cancel_delayed_work() was a no-op), when we then re-initialize the ldisc
from under it.
That, in turn, results in various random problems, usually seen as a
NULL pointer dereference in run_timer_softirq() or a BUG() in
worker_thread (but it can be almost anything).
Fix it by adding the required 'flush_scheduled_work()' after doing the
tty_ldisc_halt() (this also requires us to move the ldisc halt to before
taking the ldisc mutex in order to avoid a deadlock with the workqueue
executing do_tty_hangup, which requires the mutex).
The locking should be cleaned up one day (the requirement to do this
outside the ldisc_mutex is very annoying, and weakens the lock), but
that's a larger and separate undertaking.

Using the radeon KMS test functionality, I verified that the AGP bridge of the
Intrepid2 chipset in my PowerBook supports aperture sizes up to 256M. So allow
aperture sizes up to 256M on pre-U3 bridges as well, and bump the default size
to 256M. It's possible that older revisions only support smaller sizes, but
it'll be easy to verify that with the raden KMS test functionality. Also,
there's only a problem on an actual attempt to access the aperture beyond the
maximum size supported by the hardware, and non-KMS X still defaults to using
only 32M.
Also use ARRAY_SIZE for the aperture size arrays.

Commit d945cb9cc ("pty: Rework the pty layer to use the normal buffering
logic") dropped the test for 'tty->stopped' in pty_write_room(), which
then causes the n_tty line discipline thing to not throttle the data
properly when the tty is stopped.
So instead of pausing the write due to the tty being stopped, the ldisc
layer would go ahead and push it down to the pty. The pty write()
routine would then refuse to take the data (because it _did_ check
'stopped'), and the data wouldn't actually be written.
This whole stopped test should eventually be moved into the tty ldisc
layer rather than have low-level tty drivers care about these things,
but right now the fix is to just re-instate the missing pty 'stopped'
handling.

By using the user count for the actual lifetime rules, we can get rid of
the silly "wait_for_idle" logic, because any busy ldisc will
automatically stay around until the last user releases it. This avoids
a host of odd issues, and simplifies the code.
So now, when the last ldisc reference is dropped, we just release the
ldisc operations struct reference, and free the ldisc.
It looks obvious enough, and it does work for me, but the counting
_could_ be off. It probably isn't (bad counting in the new version would
generally imply that the old code did something really bad, like free an
ldisc with a non-zero count), but it does need some testing, and
preferably somebody looking at it.
With this change, both 'tty_ldisc_put()' and 'tty_ldisc_deref()' are
just aliases for the new ref-counting 'put_ldisc()'. Both of them
decrement the ldisc user count and free it if it goes down to zero.
They're identical functions, in other words.
But the reason they still exist as sepate functions is that one of them
was exported (tty_ldisc_deref) and had a stupid name (so I don't want to
use it as the main name), and the other one was used in multiple places
(and I didn't want to make the patch larger just to rename the users).
In addition to the refcounting, I did do some minimal cleanup. For
example, now "tty_ldisc_try()" actually returns the ldisc it got under
the lock, rather than returning true/false and then the caller would
look up the ldisc again (now without the protection of the lock).
That said, there's tons of dubious use of 'tty->ldisc' without obviously
proper locking or refcounting left. I expressly did _not_ want to try to
fix it all, keeping the patch minimal. There may or may not be bugs in
that kind of code, but they wouldn't be _new_ bugs.
That said, even if the bugs aren't new, the timing and lifetime will
change. For example, some silly code may depend on the 'tty->ldisc'
pointer not changing because they hold a refcount on the 'ldisc'. And
that's no longer true - if you hold a ref on the ldisc, the 'ldisc'
itself is safe, but tty->ldisc may change.
So the proper locking (remains) to hold tty->ldisc_mutex if you expect
tty->ldisc to be stable. That's not really a _new_ rule, but it's an
example of something that the old code might have unintentionally
depended on and hidden bugs.
Whatever. The patch _looks_ sensible to me. The only users of
ldisc->users are:
- get_ldisc() - atomically increment the count
- put_ldisc() - atomically decrements the count and releases if zero
- tty_ldisc_try_get() - creates the ldisc, and sets the count to 1.
The ldisc should then either be released, or be attached to a tty.

This is pure preparation of changing the ldisc reference counting to be
a true refcount that defines the lifetime of the ldisc. But this is a
purely syntactic change for now to make the next steps easier.
This patch should make no semantic changes at all. But I wanted to make
the ldisc refcount be an atomic (I will be touching it without locks
soon enough), and I wanted to rename it so that there isn't quite as
much confusion between 'ldo->refcount' (ldisk operations refcount) and
'ld->refcount' (ldisc refcount itself) in the same file.
So it's now an atomic 'ld->users' count. It still starts at zero,
despite having a reference from 'tty->ldisc', but that will change once
we turn it into a _real_ refcount.

When debugging a recent lockup bug i found various deficiencies
in how our current lockup detection helpers work:
- SysRq-L is not very efficient as it uses a workqueue, hence
it cannot punch through hard lockups and cannot see through
most soft lockups either.
- The SysRq-L code depends on the NMI watchdog - which is off
by default.
- We dont print backtraces from the RCU code's built-in
'RCU state machine is stuck' debug code. This debug
code tends to be one of the first (and only) mechanisms
that show that a lockup has occured.
This patch changes the code so taht we:
- Trigger the NMI backtrace code from SysRq-L instead of using
a workqueue (which cannot punch through hard lockups)
- Trigger print-all-CPU-backtraces from the RCU lockup detection
code
Also decouple the backtrace printing code from the NMI watchdog:
- Dont use variable size cpumasks (it might not be initialized
and they are a bit more fragile anyway)
- Trigger an NMI immediately via an IPI, instead of waiting
for the NMI tick to occur. This is a lot faster and can
produce more relevant backtraces. It will also work if the
NMI watchdog is disabled.
- Dont print the 'dazed and confused' message when we print
a backtrace from the NMI
- Do a show_regs() plus a dump_stack() to get maximum info
out of the dump. Worst-case we get two stacktraces - which
is not a big deal. Sometimes, if register content is
corrupted, the precise stack walker in show_regs() wont
give us a full backtrace - in this case dump_stack() will
do it.

commit d6580a9f15 ("kexec: sysrq: simplify
sysrq-c handler") changed the behavior of sysrq-c to unconditional
dereference of NULL pointer. So in cases with CONFIG_KEXEC, where
crash_kexec() was directly called from sysrq-c before, now it can be said
that a step of "real oops" was inserted before starting kdump.
However, in contrast to oops via SysRq-c from keyboard which results in
panic due to in_interrupt(), oops via "echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger" will
not become panic unless panic_on_oops=1. It means that even if dump is
properly configured to be taken on panic, the sysrq-c from proc interface
might not start crashdump while the sysrq-c from keyboard can start
crashdump. This confuses traditional users of kdump, i.e. people who
expect sysrq-c to do common behavior in both of the keyboard and proc
interface.
This patch brings the keyboard and proc interface behavior of sysrq-c in
line, by forcing panic_on_oops=1 before oops in sysrq-c handler.
And some updates in documentation are included, to clarify that there is
no longer dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC, and that now the system can just
crash by sysrq-c if no dump mechanism is configured.

We really don't want to mark the pty as a low-latency device, because as
Alan points out, the ->write method can be called from an IRQ (ppp?),
and that means we can't use ->low_latency=1 as we take mutexes in the
low_latency case.
So rather than using low_latency to force the written data to be pushed
to the ldisc handling at 'write()' time, just make the reader side (or
the poll function) do the flush when it checks whether there is data to
be had.
This also fixes the problem with lost data in an emacs compile buffer
(bugzilla 13815), and we can thus revert the low_latency pty hack

Currently we reinit the ldisc on final tty close which is what the old code
did to ensure that if the device retained its termios settings then it had the
right ldisc. tty_ldisc_reinit does that but also leaves us with the reset
ldisc reference which is then leaked.
At this point we know the port will be recycled so we can kill the ldisc
off completely rather than try and add another ldisc free up when the kref
count hits zero.
At this point it is safe to keep the ldisc closed as tty_ldisc waiting
methods are only used from the user side, and as the final close we are
the last such reference. Interrupt/driver side methods will always use the
non wait version and get back a NULL.
Found with kmemleak and investigated/identified by Catalin Marinas.

Alright, I've reworked this now so that if we get one of these cases
where there's a bsr that's > 4k and < 64k on a 64k kernel we'll only
advertise that it is a 4k BSR to userspace. I think this is the best
solution since user programs are only supposed to look at sysfs to
determine how much can be mapped, and libbsr does this as well.
Please consider for 2.6.31 as a fix, thanks.

Add a 4096 byte BSR size which will be used on new machines. Also, remove
the warning when we run into an unknown size, as this can spam the kernel
log excessively.

The kernel oopses if this flag is set.
[and neither driver should set it as they call tty_flip_buffer_push from IRQ
paths so have always been buggy]
