Remove the BKL usage added in "block: push down BKL into .locked_ioctl". Virtio-blk doesn't use the BKL for anything, and doesn't implement any ioctl command by itself, but only uses the generic scsi_cmd_ioctl which is fine without the BKL.

The ports are char devices; do not have seeking capabilities. Calling nonseekable_open() from the fops_open() call and setting the llseek fops pointer to no_llseek ensures an lseek() call from userspace returns -ESPIPE.

Send a SIGIO signal when new data arrives on a port. This is sent only when the process has requested for the signal to be sent using fcntl(). Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

A process can request for SIGIO on host connect / disconnect events using the O_ASYNC file flag using fcntl(). If that's requested, and if the guest-side connection for the port is open, any host-side open/close events for that port will raise a SIGIO. The process can then use poll() within the signal handler to find out which port triggered the signal.

Explain in a comment why there's no need to reference-count the portdev struct: when a device is yanked out, we can't do anything more with it anyway so just give up doing anything more with the data or the vqs and exit cleanly.

When a port got hot-unplugged, when a port was open, any file operation after the unplugging resulted in a crash. This is fixed by ref-counting the port structure, and releasing it only when the file is closed. This splits the unplug operation in two parts: first marks the port as unavailable, removes all the buffers in the vqs and removes the port from the per-device list of ports. The second stage, invoked when all references drop to zero, releases the chardev and frees all other memory.

This moves to using cdev on the heap instead of it being embedded in the ports struct. This helps individual refcounting and will allow us to properly remove cdev structs after hot-unplugs and close operations.

To convert to using cdev as a pointer to avoid kref troubles, we have to use a different method to get to a port from an inode than the current container_of method. Add find_port_by_devt() that looks up all portdevs and ports with those portdevs to find the right port.

If the host is slow in reading data or doesn't read data at all, blocking write calls not only blocked the program that called write() but the entire guest itself. To overcome this, let's not block till the host signals it has given back the virtio ring element we passed it. Instead, send the buffer to the host and return to userspace. This operation then becomes similar to how non-blocking writes work, so let's use the existing code for this path as well. This code change also ensures blocking write calls do get blocked if there's not enough room in the virtio ring as well as they don't return -EAGAIN to userspace.

When running make clean, Kbuild doesn't process the .config file, so nothing generates a platform-y variable. We can get it to descend into the platform directories by setting $(obj-). The dec Platform file was unconditionally setting platform-, obliterating its previous contents and preventing some directories from being cleaned. This is change to an append operation '+=' to allow cavium-octeon to be cleaned.

kvm reloads the host's fs and gs blindly, however the underlying segment descriptors may be invalid due to the user modifying the ldt after loading them. Fix by using the safe accessors (loadsegment() and load_gs_index()) instead of home grown unsafe versions. This is CVE-2010-3698. KVM-Stable-Tag.

This patch reverts the driver to enabling/disabling the NFC interrupt mask rather than enabling/disabling the system interrupt. This cleans up the driver so that it doesn't rely on interrupts being disabled within the interrupt handler. For i.MX21 we keep the current behaviour, that is calling enable_irq/disable_irq_nosync to enable/disable interrupts. This patch is based on earlier work by John Ogness.
