* Revert "tty: make receive_buf() return the amout of bytes received"Linus Torvalds2011-06-041-6/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit b1c43f82c5aa265442f82dba31ce985ebb7aa71c. It was broken in so many ways, and results in random odd pty issues. It re-introduced the buggy schedule_work() in flush_to_ldisc() that can cause endless work-loops (see commit a5660b41af6a: "tty: fix endless work loop when the buffer fills up"). It also used an "unsigned int" return value fo the ->receive_buf() function, but then made multiple functions return a negative error code, and didn't actually check for the error in the caller. And it didn't actually work at all. BenH bisected down odd tty behavior to it: "It looks like the patch is causing some major malfunctions of the X server for me, possibly related to PTYs. For example, cat'ing a large file in a gnome terminal hangs the kernel for -minutes- in a loop of what looks like flush_to_ldisc/workqueue code, (some ftrace data in the quoted bits further down). ... Some more data: It -looks- like what happens is that the flush_to_ldisc work queue entry constantly re-queues itself (because the PTY is full ?) and the workqueue thread will basically loop forver calling it without ever scheduling, thus starving the consumer process that could have emptied the PTY." which is pretty much exactly the problem we fixed in a5660b41af6a. Milton Miller pointed out the 'unsigned int' issue.

It also fixes a bug of lost bytes on n_tty when flushing too many bytes via the USB serial gadget driver.

* can: add slcan driver for serial/USB-serial CAN adaptersOliver Hartkopp2010-12-081-0/+755
This patch adds support for serial/USB-serial CAN adapters implementing the LAWICEL ASCII protocol for CAN frame transport over serial lines. The driver implements the SLCAN line discipline and is heavily based on the slip.c driver. Therefore the code style remains similar to slip.c to be able to apply changes of the SLIP driver to the SLCAN driver easily. For more details see the slcan Kconfig entry.
