Relocate the IXANY restart tty test to code paths where the the received char is not START_CHAR, STOP_CHAR, INTR_CHAR, QUIT_CHAR or SUSP_CHAR. Fixes the condition when ISIG if off and one of INTR_CHAR, QUIT_CHAR or SUSP_CHAR does not restart i/o. Signed-off-by:

Convert to modal receive_buf() processing; factor receive char processing when tty->closing into n_tty_receive_buf_closing(). Note that EXTPROC when ISTRIP or IUCLC is set continues to be handled by n_tty_receive_char(). Signed-off-by:

When EXTPROC is set without ISTRIP or IUCLC, processing is identical to raw mode; handle this receiving mode as a special-case of raw mode. Signed-off-by:

Reduce pointer reloading and improve locality-of-reference; allocate read_buf and echo_buf within struct n_tty_data. Signed-off-by:

The char and flag buffer local alias pointers, p and f, are unnecessary; remove them. Signed-off-by:

In canonical mode, an EOF which is not the first character of the line causes read() to complete and return the number of characters read so far (commonly referred to as EOF push). However, if the previous read() returned because the user buffer was full _and_ the next character is an EOF not at the beginning of the line, read() must not return 0, thus mistakenly indicating the end-of-file condition. The TTY_PUSH flag is used to indicate an EOF was received which is not at the beginning of the line. Because the EOF push condition is evaluated by a thread other than the read(), multiple EOF pushes can cause a premature end-of-file to be indicated. Instead, discover the 'EOF push as first read character' condition from the read() thread itself, and restart the i/o loop if detected. Signed-off-by:

Separate the head & commit indices from the tail index to avoid cache-line contention (so called 'false-sharing') between concurrent threads. Signed-off-by:

Since neither echo_commit nor echo_tail can change for the duration of __process_echoes loop, substitute index comparison for the snapshot counter. Signed-off-by:

Don't have the driver flush received echoes if no echoes were actually output. Signed-off-by:

Peter Hurley authored
Byte-by-byte echo output is painfully slow, requiring a lock/unlock cycle for every input byte. Instead, perform the echo output in blocks of 256 characters, and at least once per flip buffer receive. Enough space is reserved in the echo buffer to guarantee a full block can be saved without overrunning the echo output. Overrun is prevented by discarding the oldest echoes until enough space exists in the echo buffer to receive at least a full block of new echoes. Signed-off-by:

Use output_lock mutex as a memory barrier when storing echo_commit. Signed-off-by:

Peter Hurley authored
Adding data to echo_buf (via add_echo_byte()) is guaranteed to be single-threaded, since all callers are from the n_tty_receive_buf() path. Processing the echo_buf can be called from either the n_tty_receive_buf() path or the n_tty_write() path; however, these callers are already serialized by output_lock. Publish cumulative echo_head changes to echo_commit; process echo_buf from echo_tail to echo_commit; remove echo_lock. On echo_buf overrun, claim output_lock to serialize changes to echo_tail.

Prepare for lockless echo_buf handling; compute current byte count of echo_buf from head and tail indices. Signed-off-by:
-
Peter Hurley authored
Instead of using a single index to track the current echo_buf position, use a head index when adding to the buffer and a tail index when consuming from the buffer. Allow these head and tail indices to wrap at max representable value; perform modulo reduction via helper functions when accessing the buffer. Signed-off-by:

Convert the tty_buffer_flush() exclusion mechanism to a public interface - tty_buffer_lock/unlock_exclusive() - and use the interface to safely write the paste selection to the line discipline. Signed-off-by:

Atomic bit ops are no longer required to indicate a flip buffer flush is pending, as the flush_mutex is sufficient barrier. Remove the unnecessary port .iflags field and localize flip buffer state to struct tty_bufhead. Signed-off-by:

Now that dropping the buffer lock is not necessary (as result of converting the spin lock to a mutex), the flip buffer flush no longer needs to be handled by the buffer work. Simply signal a flush is required; the buffer work will exit the i/o loop, which allows tty_buffer_flush() to proceed. Signed-off-by:

The buffer work may race with parallel tty_buffer_flush. Use a mutex to guarantee exclusive modify access to the head flip buffer. Remove the unneeded spin lock. Signed-off-by:

Driver-side flip buffer input is already single-threaded; 'publish' the .next link as the last operation on the tail buffer so the 'consumer' sees the already-completed flip buffer. The commit buffer index is already 'published' by driver-side functions. Signed-off-by:

Lockless flip buffers require atomically updating the bytes-in-use watermark. The pty driver also peeks at the watermark value to limit memory consumption to a much lower value than the default; query the watermark with new fn, tty_buffer_space_avail(). Signed-off-by:

Use a 0-sized sentinel to avoid assigning the head ptr from the driver side thread. This also eliminates testing head/tail for NULL. When the sentinel is first 'consumed' by the buffer work (or by tty_buffer_flush()), it is detached from the list but not freed nor added to the free list. Both buffer work and tty_buffer_flush() continue to preserve at least 1 flip buffer to which head & tail is pointed. Signed-off-by:

In preparation for lockless flip buffers, make the flip buffer free list lockless. NB: using llist is not the optimal solution, as the driver and buffer work may contend over the llist head unnecessarily. However, test measurements indicate this contention is low. Signed-off-by:

Since flip buffers are size-aligned to 256 bytes and all flip buffers 512-bytes or larger are not added to the free list, the free list only contains 256-byte flip buffers. Remove the list search when allocating a new flip buffer. Signed-off-by:
