Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events!
In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its
initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is
becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging,
monitoring, analysis facility.
Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem
'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending
code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and
less appropriate.
All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance
events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables
and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion)
The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes
it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well.
Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and
suggested a rename.
User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch
should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to
keep the size down.)
This patch has been generated via the following script:
FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config')
sed -i \
-e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \
-e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \
-e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \
-e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \
-e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \
-e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \
$FILES
for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do
M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g')
mv $N $M
done
FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*)
sed -i \
-e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \
-e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \
-e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \
-e 's/counter/event/g' \
-e 's/Counter/Event/g' \
$FILES
... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be
used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts
a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this
change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches
is the smallest: the end of the merge window.
Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some
stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch.
( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal
with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit
over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but
in case there's something left where 'counter' would be
better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis
instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. )

For Z cards, use tty helpers for dtr_rts.
If we did the same for Y cards, it will cause a deadlock, because
cyy_dtr_rts takes a lock which we already hold.
Instead, we introduce a Y helper expecting card lock to be held.
It may then be called with set/clear masks from other places.

While this is not problem for Y card handlers (they are protected
by card_lock), Z handlers and other functions may dereference NULL
at any point after hangup/close. Even if (tty == NULL) was already
performed in the handler.
Note that it's not an issue for Y cards just for now. After
switching to tty_port_close_* et al. this will be a problem. So
add refcounting to them all.
Also proc .show doesn't take a tty reference and it should (along
with a ldisc one).
While at it and changing prototypes (adding tty param), prepend
cy_ to functions which don't have it yet.

Now that the /proc/tty/ldiscs handling doesn't play games with 'struct
ldisc' any more, the only remaining user of 'tty_ldisc_try_get()' is
'tty_ldisc_get()' (note the lack of 'try').
And we're actually much better off folding the logic directly into that
file, since the 'try' part was always about trying to get the ldisc
operations, not the ldisc itself: and making that explicit inside of
'tty_ldisc_get()' clarifies the whole semantics.

The /proc/tty/ldiscs file is totally and utterly un-interested in the
"struct tty_ldisc" structures, and only cares about the underlying ldisc
operations.
So don't make it create a dummy 'struct ldisc' only to get a pointer to
the operations, and then destroy it. Instead, we split up the function
'tty_ldisc_try_get()', and create a 'get_ldops()' helper that just looks
up the ldisc operations based on the ldisc number.
That makes the code simpler to read (smaller and more well-defined
helper functions), and allows the /proc functions to avoid creating that
useless dummy only to immediately free it again.

Commit ac89a9174 ("pty: don't limit the writes to 'pty_space()' inside
'pty_write()'") removed the pty_space() checking, in order to let the
regular tty buffer code limit the buffering itself.
That was all good, but as a subtle side effect it meant that we'd be
doing a tty_wakeup() even in the case where the buffers were all filled
up, and didn't actually make any progress on the write.
Which sounds innocuous, but it interacts very badly with the ppp_async
code, which has an infinite loop in ppp_async_push() that tries to push
out data to the tty. When we call tty_wakeup(), that loop ends up
thinking that progress was made (see the subtle interactions between
XMIT_WAKEUP and 'tty_stuffed' for details). End result: one unhappy ppp
user.
Fixed by noticing when tty_insert_flip_string() didn't actually do
anything, and then not doing any more processing (including, very much
not calling tty_wakeup()).

Many years ago when this driver was written, it had a use, but these
days it's nothing but trouble and distributions should not enable it
in any situation.
Pretty much every console device a sparc machine could see has a
bonafide real driver, making the PROM console hack unnecessary.
If any new device shows up, we should write a driver instead of
depending upon this crutch to save us. We've been able to take care
of this even when no chip documentation exists (sunxvr500, sunxvr2500)
so there are no excuses.
