ab818c7aa7 kgdboc: fix return value of __setup handler
__setup() handlers should return 1 to obsolete_checksetup() in
init/main.c to indicate that the boot option has been handled.
A return of 0 causes the boot option/value to be listed as an Unknown
kernel parameter and added to init's (limited) environment strings.
So return 1 from kgdboc_option_setup().

Unknown kernel command line parameters "BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc7
  kgdboc=kbd kgdbts=", will be passed to user space.

 Run /sbin/init as init process
   with arguments:
     /sbin/init
   with environment:
     HOME=/
     TERM=linux
     BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc7
     kgdboc=kbd
     kgdbts=

5b36146eac serial: kgdboc: Fix bad line wrapping in comment
In commit a4912303ac ("serial: kgdboc: Allow earlycon initialization
to be deferred") it looks like Daniel really took Linus's new
suggestion about not needing to wrap at 80 columns to heart and he
jammed two full lines of comments into one line.  Either that or he
just somehow accidentally deleted a carriage return when doing final
edits on the patch.  In either case let's make it look prettier.

5946d1f5b3 kdb: Switch to use safer dbg_io_ops over console APIs
In kgdb context, calling console handlers aren't safe due to locks used
in those handlers which could in turn lead to a deadlock. Although, using
oops_in_progress increases the chance to bypass locks in most console
handlers but it might not be sufficient enough in case a console uses
more locks (VT/TTY is good example).

Currently when a driver provides both polling I/O and a console then kdb
will output using the console. We can increase robustness by using the
currently active polling I/O driver (which should be lockless) instead
of the corresponding console. For several common cases (e.g. an
embedded system with a single serial port that is used both for console
output and debugger I/O) this will result in no console handler being
used.

In order to achieve this we need to reverse the order of preference to
use dbg_io_ops (uses polling I/O mode) over console APIs. So we just
store "struct console" that represents debugger I/O in dbg_io_ops and
while emitting kdb messages, skip console that matches dbg_io_ops
console in order to avoid duplicate messages. After this change,
"is_console" param becomes redundant and hence removed.

a4912303ac serial: kgdboc: Allow earlycon initialization to be deferred
Currently there is no guarantee that an earlycon will be initialized
before kgdboc tries to adopt it. Almost the opposite: on systems
with ACPI then if earlycon has no arguments then it is guaranteed that
earlycon will not be initialized.

This patch mitigates the problem by giving kgdboc_earlycon a second
chance during console_init(). This isn't quite as good as stopping during
early parameter parsing but it is still early in the kernel boot.

1feb48baf2 kgdboc: Disable all the early code when kgdboc is a module
When kgdboc is compiled as a module all of the "ekgdboc" and
"kgdb_earlycon" code isn't useful and, in fact, breaks compilation.
This is because early_param() isn't defined for modules and that's how
this code gets configured.

It turns out that this was broken by commit eae3e19ca9 ("kgdboc:
Remove useless #ifdef CONFIG_KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE in kgdboc") and then
made worse by commit 220995622d ("kgdboc: Add kgdboc_earlycon to
support early kgdb using boot consoles").  I guess the #ifdef wasn't
so useless, even if it wasn't obvious why it was useful.  When kgdboc
was compiled as a module only "CONFIG_KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE_MODULE" was
defined, not "CONFIG_KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE".  That meant that the old
module.

Let's basically do the same thing that the old code (pre-removal of
the #ifdef) did but use "IS_BUILTIN(CONFIG_KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE)" to
make it more obvious what the point of the check is.  We'll fix
kgdboc_earlycon in a similar way.

220995622d kgdboc: Add kgdboc_earlycon to support early kgdb using boot consoles
We want to enable kgdb to debug the early parts of the kernel.
Unfortunately kgdb normally is a client of the tty API in the kernel
and serial drivers don't register to the tty layer until fairly late
in the boot process.

Serial drivers do, however, commonly register a boot console.  Let's
enable the kgdboc driver to work with boot consoles to provide early
debugging.

This change co-opts the existing read() function pointer that's part
of "struct console".  It's assumed that if a boot console (with the
flag CON_BOOT) has implemented read() that both the read() and write()
function are polling functions.  That means they work without
interrupts and read() will return immediately (with 0 bytes read) if
there's nothing to read.  This should be a safe assumption since it
appears that no current boot consoles implement read() right now and
there seems no reason to do so unless they wanted to support
"kgdboc_earlycon".

The normal/expected way to make all this work is to use
"kgdboc_earlycon" and "kgdboc" together.  You should point them both
to the same physical serial connection.  At boot time, as the system
transitions from the boot console to the normal console (and registers
a tty), kgdb will switch over.

One awkward part of all this, though, is that there can be a window
where the boot console goes away and we can't quite transtion over to
the main kgdboc that uses the tty layer.  There are two main problems:

1. The act of registering the tty doesn't cause any call into kgdboc
   so there is a window of time when the tty is there but kgdboc's
   init code hasn't been called so we can't transition to it.

2. On some serial drivers the normal console inits (and replaces the
   boot console) quite early in the system.  Presumably these drivers
   were coded up before earlycon worked as well as it does today and
   probably they don't need to do this anymore, but it causes us
   problems nontheless.

Problem #1 is not too big of a deal somewhat due to the luck of probe
ordering.  kgdboc is last in the tty/serial/Makefile so its probe gets
right after all other tty devices.  It's not fun to rely on this, but
it does work for the most part.

Problem #2 is a big deal, but only for some serial drivers.  Other
serial drivers end up registering the console (which gets rid of the
boot console) and tty at nearly the same time.

The way we'll deal with the window when the system has stopped using
the boot console and the time when we're setup using the tty is to
keep using the boot console.  This may sound surprising, but it has
been found to work well in practice.  If it doesn't work, it shouldn't
be too hard for a given serial driver to make it keep working.
Specifically, it's expected that the read()/write() function provided
in the boot console should be the same (or nearly the same) as the
normal kgdb polling functions.  That means continuing to use them
should work just fine.  To make things even more likely to work work
we'll also trap the recently added exit() function in the boot console
we're using and delay any calls to it until we're all done with the
boot console.

NOTE: there could be ways to use all this in weird / unexpected ways.
If you do something like this, it's a bit of a buyer beware situation.
Specifically:
- If you specify only "kgdboc_earlycon" but not "kgdboc" then
  (depending on your serial driver) things will probably work OK, but
  you'll get a warning printed the first time you use kgdb after the
  boot console is gone.  You'd only be able to do this, of course, if
  the serial driver you're running atop provided an early boot console.
- If your "kgdboc_earlycon" and "kgdboc" devices are not the same
  device things should work OK, but it'll be your job to switch over
  which device you're monitoring (including figuring out how to switch
  over gdb in-flight if you're using it).

When trying to enable "kgdboc_earlycon" it should be noted that the
names that are registered through the boot console layer and the tty
layer are not the same for the same port.  For example when debugging
on one board I'd need to pass "kgdboc_earlycon=qcom_geni
kgdboc=ttyMSM0" to enable things properly.  Since digging up the boot
console name is a pain and there will rarely be more than one boot
console enabled, you can provide the "kgdboc_earlycon" parameter
without specifying the name of the boot console.  In this case we'll
just pick the first boot that implements read() that we find.

This new "kgdboc_earlycon" parameter should be contrasted to the
existing "ekgdboc" parameter.  While both provide a way to debug very
early, the usage and mechanisms are quite different.  Specifically
"kgdboc_earlycon" is meant to be used in tandem with "kgdboc" and
there is a transition from one to the other.  The "ekgdboc" parameter,
on the other hand, replaces the "kgdboc" parameter.  It runs the same
logic as the "kgdboc" parameter but just relies on your TTY driver
being present super early.  The only known usage of the old "ekgdboc"
parameter is documented as "ekgdboc=kbd earlyprintk=vga".  It should
be noted that "kbd" has special treatment allowing it to init early as
a tty device.

68e55f61c1 kgdboc: Use a platform device to handle tty drivers showing up late
If you build CONFIG_KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE into the kernel then you
should be able to have KGDB init itself at bootup by specifying the
"kgdboc=..." kernel command line parameter.  This has worked OK for me
for many years, but on a new device I switched to it stopped working.

The problem is that on this new device the serial driver gets its
probe deferred.  Now when kgdb initializes it can't find the tty
driver and when it gives up it never tries again.

We could try to find ways to move up the initialization of the serial
driver and such a thing might be worthwhile, but it's nice to be
robust against serial drivers that load late.  We could move kgdb to
init itself later but that penalizes our ability to debug early boot
code on systems where the driver inits early.  We could roll our own
system of detecting when new tty drivers get loaded and then use that
to figure out when kgdb can init, but that's ugly.

Instead, let's jump on the -EPROBE_DEFER bandwagon.  We'll create a
singleton instance of a "kgdboc" platform device.  If we can't find
our tty device when the singleton "kgdboc" probes we'll return
-EPROBE_DEFER which means that the system will call us back later to
try again when the tty device might be there.

We won't fully transition all of the kgdboc to a platform device
because early kgdb initialization (via the "ekgdboc" kernel command
line parameter) still runs before the platform device has been
created.  The kgdb platform device is merely used as a convenient way
to hook into the system's normal probe deferral mechanisms.

As part of this, we'll ever-so-slightly change how the "kgdboc=..."
kernel command line parameter works.  Previously if you booted up and
kgdb couldn't find the tty driver then later reading
'/sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc' would return a blank string.
Now kgdb will keep track of the string that came as part of the
command line and give it back to you.  It's expected that this should
be an OK change.

1cd25cbb2f kgdboc: Fix warning with module build
After 2dd4531686 ("kgdboc: Fix restrict error"), kgdboc_option_setup is
now only used when built in, resulting in a warning when compiled as a
module:

drivers/tty/serial/kgdboc.c:134:12: warning: 'kgdboc_option_setup' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
 static int kgdboc_option_setup(char *opt)
            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Move the function under the appropriate ifdef for builtin only.

There's an error when compiled with restrict:

drivers/tty/serial/kgdboc.c:137:2: error: ‘strcpy’ source argument is the same

As the error implies, this is from trying to use config as both source and
destination. Drop the call to the function where config is the argument
since nothing else happens in the function.

4793f2ebff tty: serial: Remove redundant license text
Now that the SPDX tag is in all tty files, that identifies the license
in a specific and legally-defined manner.  So the extra GPL text wording
can be removed as it is no longer needed at all.

This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in
the kernel describe the GPL license text.  And there's unneeded stuff
like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never
needed.

No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

e3b3d0f549 tty: add SPDX identifiers to all remaining files in drivers/tty/
It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.

Update the drivers/tty files files with the correct SPDX license
identifier based on the license text in the file itself.  The SPDX
identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of
the full boiler plate text.

This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe
Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

module_param_call() have a slightly wrong argument types. This fixes
those in an effort to clean up the calls when running under type-enforced
compiler instrumentation for CFI. This is the result of running the
following semantic patch:

24b8592ec0 kgdboc: Accept either kbd or kdb to activate the vga + keyboard kdb shell
It is a common enough mistake for people to specify "kdb" when they
meant to type "kbd" that the kgdboc can just accept both since they
both mean the same thing anyway.  Specifically it is for the case
where you want kdb to be active on your graphics console + keyboard
(where kbd was the original abbreviation for keyboard).

With this change kgdboc will now accept either to mean the same thing:
   kgdboc=kbd
   kgdboc=kdb

Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo:
 "This is workqueue updates for v3.7-rc1.  A lot of activities this
  round including considerable API and behavior cleanups.

   * delayed_work combines a timer and a work item.  The handling of the
     timer part has always been a bit clunky leading to confusing
     cancelation API with weird corner-case behaviors.  delayed_work is
     updated to use new IRQ safe timer and cancelation now works as
     expected.

   * Another deficiency of delayed_work was lack of the counterpart of
     mod_timer() which led to cancel+queue combinations or open-coded
     timer+work usages.  mod_delayed_work[_on]() are added.

     These two delayed_work changes make delayed_work provide interface
     and behave like timer which is executed with process context.

   * A work item could be executed concurrently on multiple CPUs, which
     is rather unintuitive and made flush_work() behavior confusing and
     half-broken under certain circumstances.  This problem doesn't
     exist for non-reentrant workqueues.  While non-reentrancy check
     isn't free, the overhead is incurred only when a work item bounces
     across different CPUs and even in simulated pathological scenario
     the overhead isn't too high.

     All workqueues are made non-reentrant.  This removes the
     distinction between flush_[delayed_]work() and
     flush_[delayed_]_work_sync().  The former is now as strong as the
     latter and the specified work item is guaranteed to have finished
     execution of any previous queueing on return.

   * In addition to the various bug fixes, Lai redid and simplified CPU
     hotplug handling significantly.

   * Joonsoo introduced system_highpri_wq and used it during CPU
     hotplug.

  There are two merge commits - one to pull in IRQ safe timer from
  tip/timers/core and the other to pull in CPU hotplug fixes from
  wq/for-3.6-fixes as Lai's hotplug restructuring depended on them."

Fixed a number of trivial conflicts, but the more interesting conflicts
were silent ones where the deprecated interfaces had been used by new
code in the merge window, and thus didn't cause any real data conflicts.

Tejun pointed out a few of them, I fixed a couple more.

0c57dfcc6c tty/serial: Add kgdb_nmi driver
This special driver makes it possible to temporary use NMI debugger port
as a normal console by issuing 'nmi_console' command (assuming that the
port is attached to KGDB).

Unlike KDB's disable_nmi command, with this driver you are always able
to go back to the debugger using KGDB escape sequence ($3#33).  This is
because this console driver processes the input in NMI context, and thus
is able to intercept the magic sequence.

Note that since the console interprets input and uses polling
communication methods, for things like PPP it is still better to fully
detach debugger port from the KGDB NMI (i.e. disable_nmi), and use raw
console.

Usually, to enter the debugger one have to type the magic sequence, so
initially the kernel will print the following prompt on the NMI debugger
console:

	Type $3#33 to enter the debugger>

For convenience, there is a kgdb_fiq.knock kernel command line option,
when set to 0, this turns the special command to just a return key
press, so the kernel will be printing this:

	Hit <return> to enter the debugger>

This is more convenient for long debugging sessions, although it makes
nmi_console feature somewhat useless.

And for the cases when NMI connected to a dedicated button, the knocking
can be disabled altogether by setting kgdb_fiq.knock to -1.

43829731dd workqueue: deprecate flush[_delayed]_work_sync()
flush[_delayed]_work_sync() are now spurious.  Mark them deprecated
and convert all users to flush[_delayed]_work().

If you're cc'd and wondering what's going on: Now all workqueues are
non-reentrant and the regular flushes guarantee that the work item is
not pending or running on any CPU on return, so there's no reason to
use the sync flushes at all and they're going away.

This patch doesn't make any functional difference.

578b9ce009 tty: Add module.h to drivers/tty users who just expect it there.
We are cleaning up the issue that means module.h is omnipresent.
These tty users are the people who implictly are relying on that.
Fix up the real users to call out the include that they really need.

In the case of jsm_driver.c file, it had moduleparam.h but that
isn't enough and it needs the full module.h

ab4382d274 tty: move drivers/serial/ to drivers/tty/serial/
The serial drivers are really just tty drivers, so move them to
drivers/tty/ to make things a bit neater overall.

This is part of the tty/serial driver movement proceedure as proposed by
Arnd Bergmann and approved by everyone involved a number of months ago.
