pps: Fix a use-after free bug when unregistering a source.

2013-02-28T13:38:31Z

commit d953e0e837e65ecc1ddaa4f9560f7925878a0de6 upstream. Remove the cdev from the system (with cdev_del) *before* deallocating it (in pps_device_destruct, called via kobject_put from device_destroy). Also prevent deallocating a device with open file handles. A better long-term fix is probably to remove the cdev from the pps_device entirely, and instead have all devices reference one global cdev. Then the deallocation ordering becomes simpler. But that's more complex and invasive change, so we leave that for later.

pps: Use pps_lookup_dev to reduce ldisc coupling

2013-02-28T13:38:30Z

commit 03a7ffe4e542310838bac70ef85acc17536b6d7c upstream. Now that N_TTY uses tty->disc_data for its private data, 'subclass' ldiscs cannot use ->disc_data for their own private data. (This is a regression is v3.8-rc1) Use pps_lookup_dev to associate the tty with the pps source instead. This fixes a crashing regression in 3.8-rc1.

pps: Add pps_lookup_dev() function

2013-02-28T13:38:30Z

commit 513b032c98b4b9414aa4e9b4a315cb1bf0380101 upstream. The PPS serial line discipline wants to attach a PPS device to a tty without changing the tty code to add a struct pps_device * pointer. Since the number of PPS devices in a typical system is generally very low (n=1 is by far the most common), it's practical to search the entire list of allocated pps devices. (We capture the timestamp before the lookup, so the timing isn't affected.) It is a bit ugly that this function, which is part of the in-kernel PPS API, has to be in pps.c as opposed to kapi,c, but that's not something that affects users.

Drivers: misc: remove __dev* attributes.

2013-01-03T23:57:16Z

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev* markings need to be removed. This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, __devinitconst, and __devexit from these drivers. Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand. Cc: Bill Pemberton Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

pps, ptp: Remove dependencies on EXPERIMENTAL

2012-11-01T15:35:17Z

These are now established subsystems, and we want drivers to be able to select PPS and PTP_1588_CLOCK without depending on EXPERIMENTAL. Further, the use of EXPERIMENTAL is now deprecated in general. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

pps: return PTR_ERR on error in device_create

2012-07-31T00:25:21Z

We should return PTR_ERR if the call to the device_create function fails. Without this patch we instead return the value from a successful call to cdev_add if the call to device_create fails.

pps: new client driver using GPIO

2011-11-02T23:07:02Z

This client driver allows you to use a GPIO pin as a source for PPS signals. Platform data [1] are used to specify the GPIO pin number, label, assert event edge type, and whether clear events are captured. This driver is based on the work by Ricardo Martins who submitted an initial implementation [2] of a PPS IRQ client driver to the linuxpps mailing-list on Dec 3 2010.
