Fix several issues related to the RS485 interface: - It adds the flag SER_RS485_RTS_BEFORE_SEND that was missing from the serial_rs485 structure (even if "delay_rts_before_send" was existing) - It adds a further "delay_rts_after_send" field for those drivers that can have a delay after send (e.g., atmel_serial) - It fixes the usage of the structure in the atmel_serial driver (where "delay_rts_before_send" should be used instead of "delay_rts_after_send").

It seems that currently ASYNC_FLAGS is one bit short of covering all the bits of the ASYNC user flags. In particular it does not cover the ASYNC_AUTOPROBE bit. ASYNCB_LAST_USER and ASYNCB_AUTOPROBE are both equal to 15. Therefore: ASYNC_AUTOPROBE = 1000 0000 0000 0000 ASYNC_FLAGS = 0111 1111 1111 1111 So ASYNC_FLAGS is not covering the ASYNC_AUTOPROBE bit. This patch fixes the issue and with the patch the values will be: ASYNC_AUTOPROBE = 1000 0000 0000 0000 ASYNC_FLAGS = 1111 1111 1111 1111 As a side note, doing a "git grep" I didn't find any use of ASYNC_AUTOPROBE or ASYNCB_AUTOPROBE in the kernel, besides this include file.

When the console has been redirected, a hangup of the tty will cause tty_release to be called under the big tty_mutex, which leads to a deadlock because hangup is also called under the BTM. This moves the BTM deeper into the tty_hangup function so we can close the redirected tty without holding the BTM. In case of pty, we now need to drop the BTM before calling tty_vhangup.

Most tty drivers may block while opening a device. Since this possibly depends on another thread closing it first and both threads may need the BTM, we need to release it here.

The tty locking now follows the rules for mutexes, so we can replace the BKL usage with a new subsystem wide mutex. Using a regular mutex here will change the behaviour when blocked on the BTM from spinning to sleeping, but that should not be visible to the user. Using the mutex also means that all the BTM is now covered by lockdep.

This changes all remaining users of tty_lock_nested to be non-recursive, which lets us kill this function. As a consequence, we won't need to keep the lock count any more, which allows more simplifications later.

Some wait_until_sent versions require the big tty mutex, others don't and some callers of wait_until_sent already hold it while other don't. That leads to recursive use of the BTM in these functions, which we're trying to get rid of. This turns all cleans up the locking there so that the driver's wait_until_sent function never takes the BTM itself if it is already called with that lock held.

We need to release the BTM in paste_selection() when sleeping in tty_ldisc_ref_wait to avoid deadlocks with tty_ldisc_enable. In tty_set_ldisc, we now always grab the BTM before taking the ldisc_mutex in order to avoid AB-BA deadlocks between the two. tty_ldisc_halt potentially blocks on a workqueue function that takes the BTM, so we must release the BTM before calling it.

vgacon_do_font_op releases and reacquires the BTM while holding console_sem. This violates the rule that BTM has to be the outer lock whenever we hold both. There does not seem to be any reason to give up the BTM here, so just stop doing that.

tty_mutex is never taken with the BTM held, except for two corner cases that are worked around here. We give up the BTM before calling tty_release() in the error path of tty_open(). Similarly, we reorder the locking in ptmx_open() to get tty_mutex before the BTM.

Move termios initialization in open into uart_dtr_rts to make sure it always gets called when necessary. Based on a suggestion from Alan Cox. Alan writes: Ok this sort of makes sense. Something isn't getting initialised and both getty and minicom will do a termios set which is sorting it out. This is occurring because the generic block_til_ready sets ASYNCB_NORMAL_ACTIVE so the termios updating gets skipped. This patch should cure it and then we can think about doing it more elegantly by getting the serial layer to use tty_port_open, kfifo and the like and removing the tons of repeated crap in all the drivers.

The port mutex protects port->tty, but these paths never need to walk from port->tty. They do need the low level lock as the API expects that but they already also take it.

One or two drivers go poking back into the tty from the termios setting routine in unsafe ways. We don't need to pass the tty down because the [ab]users are just using it to get at things they can get at anyway. This leaves low_latency setting to sort out along with set_ldisc use.

We can use the port mutex for this and also for the hangup path so removing the problematic use of the hangup mutex in this driver. Fix up the locking on the various port flags while we are at it.
